Shannon Beador tries to cover apparent bruise on her face after DUI arrest

Reality TV

Shannon Beador had what appeared to be a bruise on her face several days after her arrest for driving under the influence of alcohol.

Page Six exclusively obtained photos of the “Real Housewives of Orange County” star and her ex-boyfriend John Janssen leaving an apartment in Newport Beach, Calif., Wednesday afternoon.

Beador, who was wearing sunglasses, kept her head down and hair in front of her face as she stood behind Janssen and an unidentified man, who was carrying a box.

A mark above her left eye was visible in the shots.

The Bravolebrity, 59, was wearing a black top underneath a blue button-down shirt. The rest of her body was concealed by the two men.

However, when she and Janssen were seen entering the home hours earlier, her left arm — which was out of her of her black jacket — seemed to be in a sling.

The insurance broker was seen opening the front door for the mother of three, who reportedly sustained injuries in the crash that preceded her DUI and hit-and-run arrest Saturday night.

“She was injured, so she’s gonna be recovering,” her close pal Jeff Lewis said on his SiriusXM radio show Monday without further elaboration.

Security camera footage of the ordeal showed Beador zooming around a corner in a residential neighborhood in Newport Beach before losing control of her vehicle.

She jumped a curb and slammed into a house before reversing her car off the sidewalk and slowly driving away.

Though Beador narrowly missed the front door of the building, she damaged a garden, knocked over a planter and left the nearby pavement in disarray.

Page Six’s exclusive pictures of the scene appeared to show parts of her car strewn about as well as a large skid mark on the street.

TMZ reported that Beador eventually parked her vehicle in the middle of the road and “tried to act like she was just walking her pup,” Archie, when police arrived.

She was taken into custody and booked on two misdemeanors. She was released Sunday morning on $2,500 bail.

Though it’s unclear what exactly happened before the accident, the Real for Real founder reportedly appeared “tipsy” while out at a local bar with a friend hours prior.

Beador’s attorney, Mike Fell, told Page Six that his client was “extremely apologetic and remorseful.”

Lewis, 53, echoed those sentiments, insisting that his “ashamed” and “embarrassed” pal would be “entering counseling this week.”

However, he made sure to note that he doesn’t believe “Shannon is an alcoholic,” even though she was recently “removed” from a different bar for being “wasted” and “screaming” at Janssen’s daughter.
