After pinning every housewife in Bravo's Real Housewives franchise up against each other, the winner of the 'Best Housewife Ever' title is kind of surprising! The final two came down to Shannon Beador of RHOC, and Caroline Mazo, formerly on RHONJ and now matriarch of Manzo'd With Children.

She beat out fan-favorite, veteran and former housewives, Nene Leakes, Bethenny Frankel and Lisa Vanderpump. One of the newbies of Orange County takes the cake...or trophy!

Shannon Beador!! She arrived in The Real Hosuewives of Orange County this past season, and after only a year, she was voted for (hundreds of thousands of times) as "The Best Housewife Ever!"

Let's be honest, Shannon is mostly responsible for the revelation that co-star Tamra Judge, is a lunatic that no rational person would like to call a 'friend.'

Congratulations to Shannon Beador and we hope to see 'The Best Housewife Ever!' for many more seasons to come in Orange County. Especially now that she and her husband David have revived their marriage, to which Shannon credits their experience on the show.

You can preview a sneak peak of what Shannon has to say about her newest title here, and catch more of Shannon tonight on E! News at 7pm!
