While gossip outlets are busy calculating how long 'Real Housewives of Orange County' star Shannan Beador has until she gets a divorce, recent reports say that is not going to happen. The reality actress accredits her recovered marriage to the Bravo TV franchise.

The 49-year-old reality star admitted that her marriage to husband David Beador was crumbling just a few months back, with rumors claiming that divorce had become impending in Beador's troubled union.

However, the couple was able to patch things up and Beador asserts that her relationship with her life partner has drastically improved over the last few months, after the two managed to overcome some incredibly difficult obstacles in their marriage.

Beador explained that the episodes aired on the reality series are usually delayed by five or six months, and that there came a time when watching the outdated episodes were difficult for her, as she had been trying to avoid rehashing matters of the past in her marriage.

Meanwhile, during an interview on 'Watch What Happens Live', the Orange County housewife did not blink as she named co-star Tamra Barney as the "fakest" housewife in their reality show, in response to TV host Andy Cohen query about who she thought that was on the show.

After Beador tagged Barney, an awkward pause of silence followed for a moment in the 'Watch What Happens Live' studio as her unhesitant answer took the audience by surprise. Also present during the interview was actress Elizabeth Moss, who played the role of an icebreaker as she expressed interest in the show by stating that she had many questions about the franchise and that she would watch the show to find her answers.
