Shannon Beador's Oldest Daughter Could Be Her Twin

Shannon Beador of "The Real Housewives of Orange County" has shared plenty of details about her life with viewers, with many taking her side during her messy divorce with David Beador, who was caught having an affair while the two were married. While the two no longer share matrimony, David and Shannon are still working together as co-parents to their three children: oldest daughter, Sophie, and twins Stella and Adeline.

David moved on and married Lesley Beador, having gone public with her shortly after his split from Shannon, something many found insensitive. "It's disgusting and cruel that David would be putting this out so publicly as their divorce is not yet finalized and they share three daughters together," an insider told People in 2018. But things got messy between David and Lesley when David filed for divorce from Leslie after 23 months of marriage, per TMZ. Shortly after, David dismissed the filing. So clearly, there's a lot of back and forth.

Despite all that chaos, Shannon continues to thrive and is now dating John Janssen. The "RHOC" star often shares photos of the two looking happy and healthy. Not only that, but Janssen often spends time with Shannon while the reality star is with her daughters, so it seems the proud mom has her girls' stamp of approval. With so many charming family updates on social media, we can't help but notice that her girls have grown up to be the spitting image of their mother, especially her oldest, Sophie.

Sophie is Shannon's 'mini me'

Shannon Beador is undoubtedly a proud mom and frequently boasts about her three beautiful daughters — Sophie, Stella, and Adeline — on Instagram. While they all look alike, fans were surprised by how much Shannon looks like her daughter Sophie. 

In June 2022, Shannon and her boyfriend, John Janssen, took Sophie and her boyfriend, Reese Perry, to Las Vegas to celebrate her 21st birthday. Shannon documented the celebration on Instagram, captioning the big day, "My girl is officially 21!" She added, "We had a spectacular dinner at one of Sophie's favorite restaurants @taolasvegas with the most amazing food." While fans were quick to wish Sophie a happy birthday, some called out the physical similarities between the two. "She is your mini me!!" one fan wrote. "Twins!!!" another commented. "She looks so much like her mama. Happy birthday!" a third added.

While fans were surprised over their physical similarities, they also found it endearing that Sophie wanted to celebrate her 21st birthday with her mom, with fans praising Shannon for how evident the bond between the mother-daughter duo is. "Best compliment ever that she wanted to be with you!" a fan commented. "Happy birthday (wow 21!!) Sophie!!! Looks like she's having a blast!" another wrote

Shannon Beador takes no prisoners on Instagram

Shannon Beador loves to share photos of her three beautiful daughters but is quick to get into mama bear mode when a troll pops up. After sharing a few shots of her three daughters doing their interviews for "The Real Housewives of Orange County," fans couldn't get over how quickly the girls appear to have grown up. According to Us Weekly, one commenter chimed in with their own take on the girl's changing appearance. "They look like they've had work done," one user commented. But Shannon wasn't having any of it. "Wow! My daughters are teens and for you to say such a thing is ridiculous," she clapped back. "Keep your unkind and false comments to yourself!" Don't mess with Shannon!

While Shannon often posts photos of all of her kids, people can't get over the similarities between our favorite Real Housewife and Sophie. "All your daughters are stunningly beautiful just like their mother!! Your oldest looks exactly like you," one fan noted in another photo series on Instagram. She really does, and what's better, it looks like they all love hanging out together.
