'RHOC' Shannon Beador Husband's Mistress Revealed: David's Other Woman Also Married!

Real Housewives of Orange County star Shannon Beador has been going through marriage hell this year ever since her husband David Beador revealed to her the scandalous affair he's been having with another woman. Now, the identity of his mistress has been exposed and apparently she is married too! Could this cheating scandal get any juicier?

According to the Daily Mail, David's alleged other woman was Nicole McMackin, President of Irvine Technology Corp. The two met in September 2013 as part of the Young President's Organization for entrepreneurs. In one of the more shocking claims, it seems she sought out the RHOC star to become friends with her and even used one of her daughters to become closer with her.

"It turns out that Nicole purposely put her kid on Shannon's daughter's basketball team, a team that David coaches," a source said. "The whole thing is upsetting for a lot of different reasons. They began talking during games and Nicole would ask her how her relationship was going."

"It just seems really underhanded and manipulative, almost as if she was probing for info to use to break them up. Or maybe she was just feeling guilty," the source went on.

As viewers have seen throughout this season on the hit Bravo series, Shannon and David have been going through a tremendous amount of couples therapy to overcome the remnants of the affair.

Another source confirmed the identity of David's mistress to Radar Online and even admitted that her husband, Reed McMackin, found out about it as well.

"Nicole did have an affair with that man whose wife is on that Orange County reality show," a source told the gossip site. "Yes, Shannon Beador's husband. It has been devastating for the family and having it play out on national television is making it hard for [her husband] Reed to forgive Nicole."

"Nicole wishes she had never gotten involved with David!" the source continued. "But she opened that can of worms and will have to deal with it. Reed would have left her if they didn't have the kids."

The source then went after the reality mom for revealing details of the indiscretion for all of the country to see saying, "If Shannon had the best interests of everyone concerned, especially the kids, she wouldn't have let this go public. This is a private family matter that never should have been dealt with on television. What is wrong with Shannon?"

Do you think Shannon should've talked about David's affair on the Real Housewives of Orange County or left it between them?
