Moving on! The Real Housewives of Orange County star Shannon Beador has a secret new businessman boyfriend, RadarOnline.com can exclusively report.
Beador’s hot new man is Rick Stanley, the Senior Vice President of Advertising Sales at Comcast Spotlight — which is her employer Bravo’s parent company!
Denver, Colorado-based Stanley, 55, is a divorced father of two sons.
“Shannon and Rick have been dating for a few months. They bonded over the fact that they were both divorced for six months when they met,” an insider snitched to RadarOnline.com about the relationship.
Stanley and Beador, 54, were spotted at a black tie charity event together in Philadelphia on February 2.
She posted a photo from the event, but not with her hunky boyfriend.
“What an incredible night with @comcast_spotlight for the #blacktietailgate at the Philadelphia Auto Show benefitting Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia,” she wrote to her 1.1 million followers.
They also attended a basketball game in his hometown in December, RadarOnline.com can confirm.

Months ago, in October, the couple hung out at fellow housewife Lisa Vanderpump's Los Angeles restaurant SUR.
“She has visited him several times, and they’ve seen each other at company events," the source claimed. "They’ve even been on a few trips together.”
Beador’s new romance sent shockwaves through her friend group, which includes RHOC cast members Kelly Dodd, Vicki Gunvalson and Tamra Judge.
“It’s kind of a scandal that she’s dating a network executive," the source said. "But they are urging her to go public with the relationship. They’re hoping she can talk him into being on the show!”
However, low-key Stanley “has no desire to be on camera," the source added.
Beador, who dropped a ton of weight after ending her bitter marriage to ex-husband David in 2017, is smitten with her new guy.
“Shannon is taking things slowly, but she likes Rick!" the source dished.
As RadarOnline.com readers knows, she dumped her last boyfriend Scot Matteson in late 2018.
Unfortunately, her nasty divorce with ex David continues. The pair is still fighting over custody of their three daughters and spousal support issues in Orange County court.
