In a Real Housewives of Orange County preview, Heather Dubrow revealed a phone call with Alexis Bellino after Tamra Judge exposed Katie Ginella’s secret recording of Shannon Beador. Meanwhile, Shannon read her recent text from Katie about the incident, as castmates weighed in.
On last week’s episode, Tamra explained that Katie secretly recorded Shannon freaking out at a cast event last season and showed it to Alexis. At the time, Alexis’ fiancé, John Janssen, was suing Shannon.
In a preview of the upcoming episode, Heather called out Katie for the recording.
“There’s no coming back from that,” said Heather in a group scene with Jennifer Pendranti and Shannon.
“But what do I do, Shannon?” asked Jennifer, who’s Katie’s friend.
“I don’t think there’s any coming back,” Heather repeated, via @therealhousewiveszone on Instagram. “Katie has crossed so many lines.”
“And so has Tamra,” Jennifer clapped back.
“I am not Tamra’s keeper,” Heather responded.
“And I’m not Katie’s,” said Jennifer. “Do you give [Tamra] grace because you’re safer to be in that position?”
But Heather denied it, claiming she’s “not scared” of her.

In another scene, Katie revealed that she recently texted Shannon. In the message, Katie said she felt terrible and mortified about the recording and that she “regret[ted]” telling Alexis.
“The fact that I hurt her, I’m dying on the inside right now,” Katie explained to Gina Kirschenheiter in a separate scene. “I should have never overshared with Alexis. I was with Alexis and Jen … We were on a triple date, and I shared that, and I should have never done that.”
Gina added, “The recording is what is very violating and scary. It’s bad, but at the same time, I think she’ll get over it.”
Back in the group scene, Shannon read more of the text.
“‘Yes, I had an audio recording of gallery shot day … But no one has heard the recording other than my husband,'” wrote Katie to Shannon at the time.
“I don’t give a f***!” Shannon commented in the scene. “Who heard the recording? Because I know other people did.”
Heather then revealed that she recently “called Alexis” about the drama.
“[Alexis] said, ‘No. We were at lunch. [Katie] played it for me.’ She couldn’t remember if Jen was there or not,” recalled Heather.
Jennifer insisted she wasn’t there when the recording was played, which Shannon believed.
