Returning Real Housewives of Orange County star Alexis Bellino has had enough of fans and her fellow Bravolebs criticizing her relationship with boyfriend, John Janssen.
Alexis clapped back at Patti Stangers claim that she is worried that John Janssen is “love bombling” her as they are good “friends.”
On Instagram, the 47-year-old wrote:
“I’m so sick of this!!! Patti Stanger has never even met Johnny. Nor is she my friend!!! And anything she THINKS she knows about John are lies and based off misinformation. The forever single “matchmaker” is worried about me????? Worry about yourself. Not me sweetie. I’m good. ????????? #findyourhappiness #leavemealon #leaveusalone Newsflash: I’m love bombing John also because we are in love so roll with that one!!!!!”
Alexis then went on to share an offcial statement from her and John on Patti’s “ridiculous comments”:
“Given Patti’s history of regrettable and offensive comments, we are not surprised, rather confused that she chose to speak about our relationship, considering she has never met John. Although, we understand, given her fraught romantic history, that Patti may not be aware of what a loving relationship looks like, we hope Patti can one day experience a true love like ours. Until then, perhaps it’s best Patti focuses on working on herself rather than trying to advise others.”
Bravo alum Patti Stanger recently told Us Weekly that she feared John Janssen was “love bombing” Alexis Bellino.
“Alexis is gorgeous. I’ve always known her. She’s always been nice to me. I just don’t want her to get hurt,” Patti Stanger said, vocalizing her concerns for her friend Alexis. “And why would a man go buy a $14,000 ring from Van Cleef if he wasn’t going for it? So I worry about the love bombing stuff.”
“It’s a love bombing moment,” she explained. “You don’t really know each other to do stuff.”
The former Millionaire Matchmaker star went on to say she doesn’t trust John’s intentions.
“When you see Shannon with John, he’s like, ‘I don’t want to go in the show,’” Patti said. “And now he’s with Alexis, like ‘Look at me. Look at me, look at me.’”
“Why would you sue a woman that supported you the whole time in paid mostly everything,” Patti questioned. “Calling you out on that, b*tch. Sorry. That’s the one I will call out on.”
The Real Housewives of Orange County will return for season 18 in mid-to-late 2024.
