The Real Housewives of Orange County is reunion bound, and one of the biggest shockers of the season left viewers on a reality cliff.

Vicki Gunvalson claims to have evidence supporting allegations that Shannon Beador has been existing in a physically abusive marriage. Shannon continues to label the accusation a complete lie. David Beador has a battery against a “cohabitant” guilty plea/conviction under his belt — but Shannon swears that their marriage is close to perfect. It’s been Vicki’s word against Shannon’s — until now.

A confidential source has come forward to back Vicki’s claims that all has not been peaceful in the Beador home. Our source explains that in February 2015, she was a guest in Vicki’s home when the Bravoleb received a phone call from Shannon — a call that this bystander will never forget.

The anonymous source described the scene in Vicki’s house, when Vicki received the shocking call.

“My husband and I were at Vicki’s house, when Shannon called.” began the source. “Vicki was panicked, because Shannon was freaking out. We were asking Vicki, ‘Do we need to go over there? Do we need to help her? Do we need to call the police? What do we do?’ because Shannon was in a complete panic — she was absolutely flipping out — she was terrified. Vicki was scared for her friend, and kept asking her how we could help her.”

The insider continued, detailing what was happening inside the Beador home.

“They [David and Shannon] had gone out to dinner, and Shannon said that David didn’t like the restaurant they were at, which frustrated her. They switched restaurants, had drinks and dinner, then came home. I don’t know if David was drunk or what was happening, but Shannon was crying in a panic, saying that David was yelling at her and that he was coming at her. We kept asking ‘Is he going to hit you — has he hit you?’ She was whispering on the phone…that she had locked herself in a room…she said ‘He’s coming, I’m going to have to call you back,’ and then she hung up. She called back crying…it was hard to understand her because she was kind of hysterical. She kept saying that she thought he was going to hurt her.”

The source explained that they asked about the kids, and Shannon told them that they were not in the home. She explained that Shannon hung up, and although Vicki tried to reconnect several times that night, they didn’t hear from Shannon until the next day. Shannon had allegedly changed her story, explaining away the episode.

“The next day Shannon called back and said it was nothing. She said, ‘I was mistaken. Did I call you last night? I was so drunk…it was nothing, I just fell down the stairs.’ “She started making up excuses,” reported the source.

The insider clarified that this is the only incident that she had ever heard, in regard to any sort of abuse in Shannon’s marriage. The source also reiterated that Shannon adamantly shut down their attempts to drive to her home to help her that night, assuring them that she was ok.

The source clarified that Vicki was not repeating the story outside of the few present during Shannon’s calls.

“Nobody knew about this, except us, and then I guess she told Kelly that one night. Vicki even said ‘This is not something that anybody needs to find out about.’ Even Vicki was hesitant — she didn’t want to have to call 911, because if it was nothing, she didn’t want it getting out,” the anonymous tipster explained. “It was important to her to maintain confidentially, to protect her friend. She didn’t want anyone to hurt Shannon at the time, and then she didn’t want anyone to find out about it. It’s now out there, and it’s unfortunate that it’s come down to this.”

The source explained that she chose to step forward, because Vicki’s credibility was being unfairly slammed.

The reunion begins Monday night — do you think the whole truth come out?
