The Real Housewives of Orange County cast member hopped on Instagram this week to share a look at Sophie Beador’s new life in New York City.

“[Sophie] living her best life in NYC,” Shannon captioned the October 23 Story.

The OC mom confirmed her daughter and Chloe had spent the evening watching Six the Musical on Broadway — one of Sophie’s all-time favorite destinations. Shannon touched on her daughter’s love for the theater back in July, when she helped Sophie move into her NYC digs.

“Sophie and I could see [Wicked the Musical] every day!” Shannon captioned a July 12 Instagram Story of her and Sophie at the Gershwin Theatre. “Her first time was on Broadway at 8 years old and now she is living here!!! Sophie and I could see [Wicked the Musical] a million times!”

Shannon's Daughters Leave Orange County

Sophie moved to the Big Apple just months after graduating from Baylor University in Waco, Texas, where she pursued a bachelor’s degree in Sports Sales Leadership and Management. 

“Sophie got a job offer in New York City,” Shannon said in a July Instagram video. “We are so proud of her and she starts next week.”

Sophie isn’t the only Beador girl living in Manhattan. Her little sister Adeline Beador moved to the city in 2023 to attend Parsons School of Design. Shannon’s other daughter Stella (Adeline’s twin) is a student at the University of Southern California but has spent every semester studying abroad in France.

“Stella was in Paris last year for the USC Trojan transfer, and she loved it so much she’s going to stay one more year,” Shannon told BravoTV.com

Shannon teases a possible move to the East Coast: "Someday..."

Although Shannon admitted it was hard to see her girls leave the OC, she’s been able to see them quite regularly as she splits her time between her SoCal home and Manhattan. Shannon said she's thoroughly enjoyed all of her East Coast trips, so much so that she was open to moving there permanently.

“I do see myself, someday, moving back East,” Shannon told BravoTV.com. “It’s one thing that I always wanted to do when I was younger and I never did — I probably never would have left. I love the city. I love everything about back East. People think that I’m from the East Coast, but I’m not. Born and raised SoCal. West Coast.”
