Luann de Lesseps criticizes John Janssen over facelift repayment demand

Luann de Lesseps publicly defended Shannon Beador during an interview on Page Six’s 'Virtual Reali-Tea' podcast, criticizing John Janssen for demanding repayment for a facelift he financed for Beador. De Lesseps expressed disbelief at Janssen's actions, questioning how one could expect repayment for a cosmetic procedure. She highlighted the character of Janssen, implying that his demand reflects poorly on him. The situation is further complicated by the return of another cast member, Bellino, to 'Real Housewives of Orange County,' which has intensified the drama surrounding Beador. Court documents reveal that Janssen has filed a lawsuit against Beador, claiming she breached an oral contract and is committing promissory fraud by not repaying him. This legal dispute has become a focal point of the ongoing narrative in the reality show, showcasing the personal conflicts among the cast members. Meanwhile, de Lesseps is actively supporting Beador in her search for a new partner, indicating a close friendship. As filming for the show nears its end, de Lesseps is also preparing for her upcoming cabaret tour, which she describes as a fun way to connect with her fans. The tour is set to continue with a performance in Charleston, SC, on October 10, where she aims to engage with her audience and share more about her life and experiences.
