Take That, David! Shannon Beador Romances Secret New Man On NYC Getaway

Shannon Beador is living her own version of Sex In The City this week!

The 54-year-old single mother of three was in New York City this week promoting the new season of The Real Housewives of Orange County, and RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned that she was NOT sleeping alone!

“Shannon is dating someone and he traveled with her to NYC this week," a friend of Shannon’s told Radar. "They are keeping it causal and fun for now.

They are not that serious yet, but they are really enjoying each other,”

On Monday night, during the taping of Watch What Happens Live, host Andy Cohen asked Shannon about her dating life since splitting with cheating ex-husband David Beador less than one year ago.

Shannon immediately turned red and covered her face, saying, “Stooop. Stooop. Stoooop!”

But BFF Tamra Judge, 51, definitely would NOT stop, telling the audience, “I think she’s on a date tonight. I think he’s in the audience. I’m not sure. He’s right there.” And according to the source, he sure was!

So who is this lucky mystery man?

Unlike David, who flaunted his much younger girlfriend Lesley Cook at dinner with his daughters in the O.C. this week, Shannon is "keeping her man a secret and not telling anyone right now."

“She does not care what David is doing or who he is doing," the pal said. "Shannon has moved on and is in a great place.”
