Luann de Lesseps defends Shannon Beador over ex John Janssen’s facelift repayment demand. The “RHONY” alum gears up for a dating show and continues her cabaret tour.
Bollywood Fever: Luann de Lesseps is standing by Shannon Beador amidst the drama surrounding her ex, John Janssen. In an exclusive interview on Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast, de Lesseps criticized Janssen for demanding that Beador repay him for the facelift he funded during their relationship.
“How are you going to take back a facelift? But that shows you what kind of caliber this man is,” the “Real Housewives of New York City” star quipped. “Money can’t buy you class, but it can buy you a facelift. Thank you, buh-bye!”
The drama between Beador, 60, and Janssen, 61, has continued to play out after their 2023 split, with Janssen now dating Beador’s “Real Housewives of Orange County” co-star Alexis Bellino.

Adding fuel to the fire, Bellino rejoined “RHOC” this season, creating tension around the couple’s new relationship and its impact on Beador.
On top of the emotional fallout, Beador is facing a legal battle with Janssen over payments for her plastic surgery.
Court documents reveal that Janssen claims Beador breached their oral contract and committed promissory fraud by refusing to repay the $75,000 he loaned her for the procedure. Beador insists the money was a gift.
Despite the turmoil, de Lesseps is helping Beador move on. The two, along with Gizelle Bryant and Ashley Darby, are currently filming a dating reality show for Peacock, tentatively titled Love Hotel.
De Lesseps expressed excitement about the project, saying she asked producers to bring in “handsome European and Latin” suitors for her.
Once filming concludes, de Lesseps will continue her popular Marry F Kill! cabaret tour, with the next show scheduled for October 10 in Charleston, SC.
Speaking of the tour, she raved, “It’s the perfect time to connect with fans, spill a little tea, and let the crowd get to know me a bit more.”
