LOS ANGELES - The attorney for "Real Housewives of Orange County" cast member Shannon Beador said Monday she is "remorseful" about an alleged hit-and-run DUI in Newport Beach this past weekend.
"I spent quite a bit of time with Shannon yesterday," attorney Mike Fell said Monday. "She is extremely apologetic and remorseful. We will be awaiting the official information on this case as it becomes available, and Shannon is prepared to accept full responsibility for her actions."
TMZ reports Beador drove her car onto a residential property Saturday night and damaged the home. She was found by police apparently walking her dog after ditching her car in the middle of the road.
