She does not want him to do anything on-camera or be offered any money from now on,” the insider said. So will David & Lesley’s rebound romance be included on next season’s show?
Absolutely, says the source! “Shannon is not going to hold back and she is going to let her feelings be known about this and everything else,” the insider insisted. We pay for juicy info!
