The war between bickering exes Shannon and David Beador appears to be finally over! And what a long, strange trip its been.
As Breaking Celebrity News reported, the Real Housewives of Orange County star reached a “private settlement” with her ex in their vicious divorce.
David has been paying Shannon $22,500 a month in child and spousal support, and had previously asked the judge to lessen the amount, claiming that his reality star ex made close to $900,000 as a RHOC star.
The judge did not reveal the details of the "private settlement" in court but told the couple: "I wish you all peace of mind you have all wanted because you have settled your case."
The treaty comes after years of angry fights and vicious attacks. Click through this Breaking Celebrity News gallery to relive their roller-coaster romance.

In January, as divorce talks continued, Shannon upped her request for David’s money.

“Shannon decided that David should pay for all three of their daughter’s college tuition, in full,” a source revealed at the time. “Basically, she is done with letting him walk all over her.”

In March, 2018, it was David’s turn to go on the offensive, accusing his ex of “excess drinking,” and alienating him from his own children.

“Since separation, the children, on several occasions have refused to talk or see me,” David wrote in explosive court documents obtained by Breaking Celebrity News. “This behavior has been tolerated in Shannon’s home and is not in the best interests of the children…Shannon is not fostering or encouraging a healthy father-child relationship.”
