Since her divorce last year, Alexis Bellino has been changing up everything from her hair color to her ear piercings. But now The Real Housewives of Orange County alum is opening up in a raw Instagram post on how the stress affected her both mentally and physically. 

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of Orange County on Peacock and the Bravo App.

"The divorce caused havoc on my body," Alexis wrote on a post of herself posing in the mirror in a bikini. "I dropped 15 lbs overnight at the beginning of it (it’s called the 'divorce diet' lol). Then I instantly gained 25 lbs back the minute I touched food again. So my body has been through a lot over the past 8 months."

Still, Alexis is making sure to stay healthy with fitness. Alexis explained she's been supplementing her workouts with indoor cycling sessions and Orangetheory (she's been going to Orangetheory since the summer).
