Watch: Shannon Beador Says Vicki Gunvalson "Is Not a Victim"

Shannon Beador and her husband David have gone through some very difficult times after his infidelity became public; however, it seems like they're in a good place now.

"I trust him, 100 percent. It's not in his character to have an affair. It was just a very fluke way that this came about with him," The Real Housewives of Orange County star tells E! News' Melanie Bromley during an exclusive sit-down interview.

Beador shares that he had never cheated before and "he never will again." She continues, "He loves me. He does love me. And he loves our family and we're best friends."

But the same can't be said for her former friend Vicki Gunvalson. The co-stars had a falling out, and Shannon refuses to acknowledge Vicki as a victim.

"There's a part of her that's corrupt," she tells us. "I was just shocked at the way Vicki was treating me, and a lot of texts going on off-camera. A lot of texts saying that I was vile, I was disgusting. I mean, really nasty texts. It was almost as though I felt that she was trying to manipulate me off-camera so that I would do what she wanted when we were filming."

In a previous sneak peek, we learned that Shannon isn't sure she wants to mend their broken friendship.

"I have a lot of emotions when it comes to Vicki—I'm angry, I'm hurt, I'm sad," Beador said in the first interview teaser released this morning. "I'm very disappointed in her. I think she has a lot of things she needs to look at within herself."

"I don't know [if I can be friends with her again]," she confessed. "We talked a little bit about that on the reunion. My husband was unfaithful for eight months, and I forgave him because we have a family, we have children together. Vicki was unfaithful and lied to me for eight months but I don't have any ties with her. I don't need to reconcile with her."
