In addition to attending a wellness and alcohol program, the mother of three shared she continues to “work with a trauma therapist and a psychiatrist regularly multiple times a week.”
“I feel good about where I am right now,” Shannon noted. “I know I continually will have to work on becoming a healthier and better person, but I’m very proud of where I’ve come at this point.”
However, Shannon isn’t looking forward to reliving last year’s troubles when the new season premieres.
“It was a difficult season for me to film,” she admitted. “The DUI was so humiliating for me and then you couple having Alexis Bellino joined the show, it was a lot. But I’m still standing here, so I feel a lot stronger and I’m continually working on myself.”
See the drama play out when The Real Housewives of Orange County returns tonight, July 11, at 9 p.m. on Bravo. And keep reading to learn more about season 18.
