Alexis Bellino And John Janssen's Enchanting Love Story

The Real Housewives of Orange County alum Alexis Bellino is back in the news after a long time. Throughout her stint in the Bravo show, from season 5 to 8, Bellino amassed a legion of admirers for standing out with her bubbly personality, stern religious beliefs, and her traditional marriage with her then-husband, Jim Bellino.  

The budding entrepreneur, on-camera tv host, and doting mother has since come a long way. Alexis navigated a tumultuous relationship with Jim onscreen and swiftly called it quits with Bellino in 2018. She may not be in the constant horizon of the limelight, but the businesswoman-turned-television personality is seemingly living a more fulfilling life.   

Is Alexis Bellino Engaged?  

Not yet, but the day might not be far away. Bellino has been dating John Janssen for over a month, but it seems the new love birds have already jumped in for a long haul. The RHOC alum, being the giddy star that she is, has been flaunting her new romance on Instagram since going official.   

Bellino, who boasts 370k followers on Instagram, recently shared the latest milestone in her new-found love as Janssen gifted her a promise ring. "Words cannot. Actions do," wrote Bellino alongside a snap of her stunning diamond band.  

Bellino further adds in the caption, "I will no longer feel guilty. I will not apologize. Love will create its own story. I love you Johnny J," followed by the "not engaged" and "promised" hashtags. As hinted by the RHOC alum in her caption, it's obvious that not all are happy with the new couple in town.  

Some have been speculating Bellino's relationship with Jannsen as her way of securing a spot in the BRAVO show. Another reason the duo has been drawing a lot of hate is, not long ago, Johnny dated another RHOC star- Shannon Beador, who, despite not starring with Alexis on the same season, has had a rough patch with her.   

Alexis Bellino and John Janssen- How it All Started?   

Bellino and Janssen have just set off on their romantic venture and the couple is already turning heads with their profound gestures, prompting fans to think if they are the end goal. While we wait and watch the course their relationship with take amid the spotlight, let's take a look back at how it all started for the two. 

Bellino and Janssen were first linked in November after they were spotted at a group dinner. The rumor didn't see the lights of many days as Alexis's publicist quicky debunked the claims. "Alexis and John have so much in common that it's easy to see why they are quickly becoming friends," the statement read.  

The long-buried rumor came alive again earlier this month after several sources reported the two being an item. In addition to slow-brewing hate from fans, Janssen's last ex, Beador, also came hard at the new couple. "I've been hurt a lot in the last couple of weeks," Shannon said in her long statement after hearing of Alexis and John's romance.  

The RHOC alum continues to rub it on haters' faces mid the ongoing hate that she and her beau are receiving. "Johnny J, let everyone talk. But you have shown me love that I’ve never known. I love you," wrote the television personality aside a couple of loved-up snaps of her and John.  

Alexis Bellino was Engaged to Andrew Bohn!  

Alexis's gushy romance with Janssen comes not long after she called it quits with Andrew Bohn. Bellino started dating Bohn a year after she finalized her divorce with Jim. The then-couple went public with their relationship in early 2019, followed by a year of dating bliss before announcing their engagement.   

"One good thing actually came out of 2020," Bellino wrote as she shared her "engaged" status on Instagram. Earlier this year in September, Bellino broke the shocking news of her and Bohn's split. "Drew and I have lovingly chosen to separate as a couple," Alexis wrote in the statement.  

The RHOC alum later revealed the real reason she decided to break up with Andrew. Bellino shared how her mother, Penelope's death in August, strained her relationship with Bohn. "The death of a close person like your mom either makes a couple or breaks a couple," said the Bravo star.  

Dive into Alexis Bellino's First Marriage and Divorce!  

A thriving career woman in her late 40s now, Alexis once had a pretty traditional lifestyle. Before and even while starring in Bravo's RHOC, Bellino was navigating a marriage and family with Jim Bellino. The two tied the knot on April 16, 2005, and called it quits in 2018.   

During their thirteen years together as spouses, the couple welcomed three kids, James, and twin daughters Melania and Mackenna, who are all in their late teen years now. The reality show unveiled the slew of troubles Alexis and Jim were facing in their marriage.  

While there were many catalysts which eventually culminated to their split, Alexis and Jim mostly collided because they weren't at the same place they used to be as a couple. "When Jim and I met, we were exactly in alignment on the ‘Leave it to Beaver’ kind of family," Alexis said while explaining how she desired for a career with kids growing up, but Jim had affixed her to household roles.  

Alexis's now-ex-husband, Jim, was the one who pulled the plug on their drowning marriage and filed for divorce in June 2018. The estranged couple has since been working on co-parenting their kids together. "One thing that we are 100 percent about is how much we love our kids," Alexis said.
