Shannon Beador of "The Real Housewives of Orange County" bravely let cameras document her marriage struggles on the hit Bravo show as she revealed on this summer's season 10 premiere episode that her husband David had an affair. But the couple has been seeking help to heal their marriage, and this Wednesday, Sept. 16, the pair celebrated their 15th wedding anniversary.
To mark the special occasion, Shannon took to Instagram to post one of their wedding pictures, which shows David carrying his bride, the two smiling widely for the camera. The photo was captioned, "Happy 15th Anniversary to my husband who I love with all my heart! We have definitely been through so much, but I never could have imagined we would be in the amazing and blessed place we are today!"
Shannon's Instagram followers congratulated the couple on their anniversary, with one follower writing, "Shannon you and David are an inspiration to other couples that are having problems."
On the same day, the reality star posted another photo, this time taken during their anniversary dinner date, and Shannon revealed that her husband surprised her by taking her to the restaurant where they got engaged.
Shannon has been very open about their marital problems on the Bravo reality show, and on her blog she wrote that she and David chose to come clean about his affair so that they could tell their story in hopes of helping other couples who are going through the same thing.
During the season 10 premiere of "The Real Housewives of Orange County," Shannon said that divorce is not an option and that she is determined to make their marriage work.
"I love my family and I will do whatever it takes to keep my family together," she said. "One day, hopefully soon, I'll say this was all a blessing."
Shannon and David have three children: Sophie, 13, and 10-year old twins Stella and Adeline.
