Evans Vestal Ward/Bravo/NBCU Photo Bank via Getty ImagesVicki Gunvalson joined Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live Monday night to "set the record straight" on her involvement with Brooks Ayers' cancer lie. Though she promised she doesn't believe anything Brooks has to say regarding his health anymore, Shannon Beador is calling "bulls—t" on the whole thing, claiming Vicki was involved from the start.
Shannon took to Facebook to post a 10-minute long video about the WWHL special, explaining point-for-point why Vicki's entire interview was allegedly filled with "so many lies."
"I am so fricken done talking about the Vicki/Brooks cancer freakin' lie nonsense, but I just watched the Watch What Happens Live special with Vicki and I am absolutely floored," Shannon kicks off her video with husband David Beador by her side. "I'm really, really angry about what happened tonight…There were so many lies!"
Just watched the Vicki WWHL special and while I am so done talking about all these lies, can't just sit back when I hear more...

For example, Cohen asked Vicki what Brooks could have been doing at City of Hope the day she supposedly went to visit him there—a story she shared on the Real Housewives of Orange County reunion. She responded, "Good question, isn't it? What was he doing there? Why did he make me leave my office and drive up there and spend four hours, five hours, four-and-a-half hours, whatever the number is, to go do this. Why?"
Vicki continues, acknowledging that the City of Hope never treated him, "That is the biggest question I have in my whole world. I will go to my grave saying, 'Why did you do this to me? To make people like you?'" she asked. "Just be a good person and people will like you. You don't have to fake cancer."
This is one of the biggest lies, according to Shannon. "What I had issue with, the first thing is, Vicki on the reunion said that for four hours she sat in the waiting room on her computer at the City of Hope," Shannon explains. "[But] on her Mario Lopez interview on Extra, she says that she picked him up. On Andy's WWHL interview, she says, 'Yeah I called him and I picked him up and then we walked around for a half an hour.' Those are conflicting stories because Vicki now realizes she can't say that she was there for four hours because City of Hope has denied treating him. These lies are so blatant!"
While Vicki told Andy that she's sorry for the RHOC stars' involvement in the lie, Shannon says she's yet to receive any sort of apology from Vicki personally.
"People are going to say to me, 'You forgave your husband. You forgave Tamra [Judge]. You forgave Heather [Dubrow].' And you know what, I did because each one of them owned the hurt that they did to me," Shannon explains. "Vicki says, 'I'm sorry. I love Shannon.' All this nonsense! Let me tell you, my phone has not rung once. I have received zero apology. It's all for the cameras. No apologies yet! No remorse, still! It's a joke when I hear her tell Andy Cohen that she feels bad for what I personally went through with her."
Essentially, Vicki wanted to make it very clear that she was just as duped into believing what Brooks said as much as everyone else. "He has not shown me anything that says he has cancer. He hasn't shown me anything that says he doesn't have cancer. I don't have anything," she told Cohen on Monday. "I only have what he's told me and you and the production company. "
Shannon, however, believes Vicki was part of the whole thing in order to make the RHOC viewers like her boyfriend.
"To say, 'I've never lied about Brooks' cancer.' Well, you did lie! You fabricated a story to gain sympathy for Brooks one and a half months prior to filming," Shannon exclaims. "It was calculated. It was premeditated. She wanted sympathy for her boyfriend because for two seasons nobody liked him. So they were damn straight going to make sure he was liked this season because who's going to not like someone with cancer. She even said that at the reunion!"
Thus, Shannon says moving forward she's done with Vicki, Brooks and any of the "naysayers" who thinks she's holding some sort of jealous grudge against them.
"This is not just a mess up! This is lying about cancer. Who in this country has not been affected by cancer? This is not something you screw around with," Shannon explains. "So people, go ahead and say that I need to move on. I have moved on! I haven't thought about Vicki Gunvalson and I don't freakin' want to think about her for a long ass time. But when I sit there and watch a 30 minute episode that's a bunch of bulls—t, you're going to hear about it from me."
