Alexis Bellino Living in $5 Million Home Despite Bankruptcy

Gather.com:

Some of the Real Housewives of Orange County women have had public money problems, but one seems to have moved beyond her own financial troubles. At last year's reunion of the show, Alexis Bellino and her husband revealed that they were indeed caught in foreclosure. It must have been a good financial year for the couple, since Alexis and her husband have moved into a brand new home.


No details have been released about whether the house was purchased or rented, but the couple doesn't seem to be downsizing if they are having money troubles. The home is reportedly worth around $5,000,000, meaning the price tag was hefty or the rent is high. And the salary she gets for Real Housewives of Orange County won't be covering the price tag.


One has to wonder what a couple like Alexis and Jim uses five bathrooms, five bedrooms, and three stories house for. Sure, you could argue that they have children and nannies, but why are an elevator, an eight-car garage, and a private beach necessities when they were facing foreclosure last year? In addition to the foreclosure, Jim's business also experienced bankruptcy. So where the heck is all of this money coming from?


Could Alexis be answering some questions about her finances on the upcoming season of Real Housewives of Orange County?
