Real Housewives of New York: It’s A Wrap For Bethenny Frankel

RHONY star Bethenny Frankel was an original cast member of the show when it debuted back in 2008.  After a rift with then castmate Jill Zarin, Bethenny exited during season 3. However, later returned for season 7 and has been a fan favorite since. But now after season 11, the Bravolebrity decided it’s a wrap for her as a housewife.

Bethenny’s grateful for her time with RHONY. She went from a broke single woman to married entrepreneur to single mom running her own multi-million dollar Skinnygirl brand. However, Frankel is ready for her next chapter. Bethenny sites her daughter Brynn as the main reason for her decision to leave. She wants to spend her time being a mom and also doing philanthropical work. Additionally, Bethenny did make the remark that she no longer needed the paycheck from the show to make ends meet. But don’t worry RHONY fans, we will see plenty of Ms. B. She may be off the show but she’s got other projects that are less time consuming that bring her joy.

RHONY: Castmembers Blindsided

Bethenny’s announcement came just days before the cast usually starts filming. So, of course, the news came as a surprise to her costars. They were very much blindsided. However, Ramona Singer seems to have taken the news the worst.  She’s quoted as saying, “What? She couldn’t even send a text? She couldn’t let me know? ” Then she went on to say, “She just doesn’t support women. You would think that when she was making this decision, she would consider the affectation it would have on me.”. This is exactly what we have come to expect from Ramona Singer. She makes everything about herself.

However other castmates took the news in stride and wished the coworker and friend well. Although they are sad to see her go they only want the best for her. Even Andy Cohen wished her well by honoring her time with her time at RHONY with his Mozel Of The Day on his show Watch What Happens Live!.
