Gina Kirschenheiter screamed at Shannon Beador for claiming that CPS was going to take her children away during The Real Housewives Of Orange Country reunion on Wednesday on Bravo.
The 39-year-old reality star confronted Shannon, 59, during the season 17 reunion hosted by Andy Cohen, 55, for discussing her DUI again after promising at last year’s reunion that she would never bring it up again.
Shannon claimed that she didn’t remember doing it and said she felt ‘awful’ about it.
‘She was drunk and angry at me,’ Gina said.
Tamra Judge, 56, while sitting next to Shannon on the virtual beach set asked her why she got so mad at show newcomer Jennifer Pedranti, 46, for telling Gina when it was all caught on camera.
Season reunion: Gina Kirschenheiter screamed at Shannon Beador for claiming that CPS was going to take her children away during The Real Housewives Of Orange Country reunion on Wednesday on Bravo
A flashback showed Jenn telling Gina how Shannon claimed that if not for her intervention that Gina’s children would have been taken away after her DUI arrest in February 2019.
Shannon explained her reaction by saying that she felt Jenn was being a pot-stirrer.
Andy asked Gina if she ever got the apology she was seeking from Shannon.
‘I have not,’ Gina said.
Shannon claimed that she apologized during their group pumpkin patch outing.
‘But you also didn’t even acknowledge that you even said it at the pumpkin patch,’ Gina said.
‘Because, Gina, I do not remember saying it. But I do want to be very, very clear here. When I made that statement, I wasn’t saying that your kids would be put in the system and taken away from you. It was, had you been arrested and an adult wouldn’t have been present, they wouldn’t have left your children there until you got your legal things taken care of,’ Shannon rambled.
‘That being said, I was told by Heather that you were discussing my relationship. I was fricking pissed off at you,’ Shannon added.

Virtual beach: Andy Cohen hosted the season 17 RHOC reunion that included a virtual beach set
Good question: Tamra Judge, 56, while sitting next to Shannon on the virtual beach set asked her why she got so mad at show newcomer Jennifer Pedranti, 46, for telling Gina when it was caught on camera
No apology: ‘I have not,’ Gina said when Andy asked if she’d gotten an apology from Shannon
Shannon told Gina that she didn’t like her.
‘We don’t get along because you don’t know anything about me,’ Shannon said.
‘And I haven’t said anything about you!,’ Gina countered.
‘Well, I was told otherwise,’ Shannon said.
‘What are my children’s names?,’ mother-of-three Gina then asked Shannon.
‘Sienna,’ Shannon answered. ‘And now, I’m, like, blanking.’
‘Never talk about my children again, Shannon. I’ve known you for six years. You don’t even know my kids’ names,’ Gina said.
‘Of course I do,’ Shannon said.
Children’s names: ‘What are my children’s names?,’ mother-of-three Gina then asked Shannon
Blanking hard: ‘Sienna,’ Shannon answered as she could only name one of Gina’s three children. ‘And now, I’m, like, blanking’
‘And you’re going to drop a bomb about CPS? It is completely inaccurate. It is so inappropriate. You are so out of bounds right here, Shannon. You were so wrong. And for you to have anything right now other than an, I’m sorry for my behavior,’ Gina said.
Shannon admitted that it was an ‘unkind’ thing to say.
‘You should have never said it,’ Gina yelled.
‘You’re worried about everybody talking about the things that you’re talking about, about your own relationship,’ Gina added.
‘I am not making up s*** about your relationship,’ Shannon said,
‘You can make up things about circumstances from the past regarding my children, my children!,’ Gina hollered.
Her children: ‘You can make up things about circumstances from the past regarding my children, my children!,’ Gina hollered
‘Oh, keep screaming, Gina!,’ Shannon said mockingly.
‘I will, Shannon! I will scream as much as I want. This is not right, what you are doing here. And I knew you were going to do this because this is who you are,’ Gina shouted at her.
The reunion was filmed before Shannon was arrested last month for investigation of DUI and a hit-and-run after she struck a house with her car in Newport Beach in Orange County, California.
The segment ended with a card telling viewers how to reach the The National Drug and Alcohol Treatment Hotline.
Gina again tearfully told Shannon that she crossed the line by involving her children.
‘This is a wound that has stayed with me. And it will stay with me. You have crossed a line, to the point where I don’t even know if I can honestly even continue to do this,’ Gina said.
The reunion also featured Tamra clashing with Jenn over her relationship with Ryan Boyajian yet again.
Heather Dubrow, 54, and Taylor Armstrong also discussed their falling out over an acting gig.
Taylor scolded Heather for calling her ‘anti-female’ while they argued during a group trip.
