David Beador is breaking his silence on his divorce from “Real Housewives of Orange County” star Shannon Beador.

“I think it’s sad for our children, Shannon chooses to share any aspect of our pending divorce through the press and on Bravo’s different TV avenues and advertisers [sic],” the construction company owner told Page Six via email on Thursday.

In regards to Shannon and Tamra Judge’s claim that he and girlfriend Lesley Cook began speaking in October, he said: “There are two sides to every story and relationship as everyone knows. I believe most people see through it though. Moreover, her and Tamra’s suggestion that Lesley and I met prior to my separation was a premeditated lie that I’m sure was talked about by the two of them prior to filming that scene. Nonetheless, Lesley is [a] beautiful, amazing, happy [woman] and mother. She and her family do not deserve the negative press those two conjure up.”

“Finally, I will always wish Shannon the best and hope she finds happiness with the men she is and has been dating,” he concluded.

Meanwhile, an insider told us that Shannon is currently focusing on herself and being a single mother to her daughters.

Page Six reported that Shannon, 54, filed for divorce from David in December. She announced that David pulled the plug on their marriage during the show’s Season 12 reunion.
