Alexis Bellino is confessing a couple of secrets about her new relationship with John Janssen.
The Real Housewives of Orange County star revealed to costar Tamra Judge and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Teddi Mellencamp during the June 14 episode of Two Ts in a Pod podcast that she and her new beau, 62, have sex “more than” four times a day.
Bellino, 47, was detailing the start of her relationship with Janssen — the ex-boyfriend of castmate Shannon Beador — and shared that for the first six to seven months of their relationship, they were both sober. This revelation prompted Mellencamp to ask if they were sober the first time they slept together.
“Yes… why is everyone drunk on the first time they ever have sex?” Bellino said.
Judge, 56, then inquired, “How many times a day do you have sex?” Mellencamp, 42, chimed in to add, “If you say four like Larsa [Pippen and Marcus Jordan], I’m gonna lose it.” (In January, then-couple Pippen and Jordan revealed during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen that they had sex “five times a night.”)
“Well, it’s more than that,” a bashful Bellino told Mellencamp and Judge of her love life.
“I told him I did not know human anatomy could do this,” she continued. “I keep telling him I’m going to have to get, like, vaginal rejuvenation.”

Bellino continued to explain to the co-hosts that their relationship is different because she stays home almost every night to be with her three kids.
“So we can’t stay the night every single night together unless he wants to come to me,” she said. “I’ll come over to his house twice a week, I’ll stay there. And then one night a week, we’re really apart.”
She then quickly cut the conversation short because she was worried that his children and her children would hear the conversation.

Bellino and Janssen started dating in the fall of 2023 and soon after went Instagram official on Christmas Day — for the holiday, he gifted her with a $16,300 promise ring.
Before their relationship, Bellino was married to Jim Bellino for 13 years before they divorced in 2018. The former couple share 16-year-old twins, Miles and Mackenna, and a 17-year-old son, James.
Meanwhile, Janssen previously dated Bellino’s costar, Beador. The former couple dated for almost four years before they split in November 2022. Janssen is a father to two kids from a previous marriage.

At the time of his split from Beador, the RHOC star exclusively told PEOPLE she “was blindsided by the breakup.”
