After 23 Months of Marriage, ‘rock’ Alum David Bedor Files for Divorce from Her Wife Lesley Bedor

Shannon Beador’s ex-husband has separated from his current wife, with whom he has a 19-month-old daughter. David and Lesley Beador are heading to divorce court less than two years after they married. On Thursday, David – the ex-husband of Real Housewives of Orange County star Shannon Beador — filed for divorce from wife Lesley Beador, whom he began dating shortly after Shannon’s divorce.

According to court documents acquired by PEOPLE, David stated that the cause for the divorce was irreconcilable differences. The now-divorced pair will marry on Oct. 15, 2020, 23 months after David stated their divorce date (Sept. 15, 2022).

They have a 19-month-old daughter named Anna Love Beador, who was born on February 5, 2021. According to the paperwork, David is requesting joint physical and legal custody. In terms of real estate, the couple splits their time between Orange County, California, and Salt Lake City, Utah, where they also own a home.

The records note, however, that “the true nature and amount of Petitioner’s distinct property is to be determined at the time of trial or settlement.” “Given the brief duration of the marriage, there are only notional community property assets and debts. A Prenuptial Agreement is in effect as of October 9, 2020.”

Shannon, 58, was “surprised” by the relationship, according to sources, because she and David had only split four months earlier – in September 2017 — after almost 17 years of marriage. Lesley, David’s 20-year-old sister who has two children from a previous marriage, documented most of their interaction on Instagram. She made waves again on November 9, 2019, when she posted a nude photo of herself with David on Instagram.

Take Notice of What Happens On his show, Live anchor Andy Cohen discussed the alluring snap, branding David the “Jackhole of the Day” for the “worst thirst traps ever seen.” My kids all watched it at school,” Shannon subsequently told the crowd at the first BravoCon that month, referring to her daughters Sophie, 21, and Stella and Adeline, 18, whom she shares with David. “They were shocked.”

That is not how David recalls it. “My kids called, and we giggled at Lesley’s selfies,” he told PEOPLE. “Shannon’s knowledge of myself and my life is astounding. She requires some peanut butter to complement her jelly.” RHOC’s David Beador and Fiancée Lesley Cook are expecting their first child.

Lesley announced the news on Instagram, showing off her new ring in a photo with a shirtless David. She also shared a photo of her then-fiancé and a large diamond with the remark, “I’m looking forward to spending eternity with my love. I adore you.

9 months after Shannon Beador’s divorce, RHOC’s David Beador proposed to girlfriend Lesley Cook.”Yes, Lesley and I are really pleased to be engaged,” David later confirmed to PEOPLE. “We’re celebrating in Miami before heading to the Super Bowl.”They were expecting in July 2020, with PEOPLE exclusively confirming the news.

Shannon, for her part, notably attempted to heal wounds with David by sending him and Lesley a baby gift upon the birth of their daughter. That gesture didn’t endear the three, with Shannon noting on an edition of Jeff Lewis Live in March 2021 that Lesley refused the gift and that she and the two had no relationship.
