LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Shannon Beador is seeking assistance after she was arrested for hit-and-run and DUI. The 'Real Housewives of Orange County' star has been looking for treatment centers following her intoxication-induced car crash.
She also wants to pay for property damage she caused on a Newport Beach, California residence, TMZ reports.
According to sources close to her, the 55-year-old has been looking into different facilities but has not been able to pick one yet.
The 59-year-old has enlisted her attorney, Michael Fell, to work directly with the property owner to “make things right,” the outlet noted.
Why was Shannon Beador arrested?
The 'Real for Real' founder was arrested last weekend after she crashed into a residential building. She dove away before she was eventually pulled over.
On Sunday, September 17, she was cited and released from jail at around 8.37 am on her own recognizance and paid $2,500 bail after having left a written promise to appear in court.
According to the outlet, authorities later found her pretending to walk her dog before being detained and booked for two misdemeanors.
What did Shannon Beador's attorney say?
“I spent quite a bit of time with Shannon yesterday,” Fell told Page Six on Monday, adding “She is extremely apologetic and remorseful. We will be awaiting the official information on this case as it becomes available, and Shannon is prepared to accept full responsibility for her actions.”
Shannon Beador turned to her former partner following the incident
Beador whose mugshot has not yet been revealed sought comfort from her ex partner John Janssen following the highly publicized crash.
The reality star was pictured entering a rental property with Janssen a couple of days after her run-in with the law.
,Separate images obtained by Page Six also showed Beador attempting to conceal what seemed to be a bruise on her face.
Her left arm also appeared to be in a sling, which supports her friend Jeff Lewis’ statements about her sustaining an injury from the crash.
What did Jeff Lewis say?
“So she’s gonna be recovering,” he shared on his SiriusXM show. “Shannon and I have been friends for a very long time. She called me yesterday; we talked for a while and I was shocked because I’ve never known Shannon to ever, ever, ever drink and drive.”
Earlier this week Lewis also claimed that Beador is “entering counseling” after the accident.
