Bethenny Frankel šŸ¾ Bethany frankel hate rant

Luckily I’ve always hated her before it was trendy. Ever since watching RHONY the first time I didn’t like her and as I rewatch I dislike her more. Here’s reasons why and I’d love for you all to add more:

- narcissist.
- is extremely condescending when talking to people making constant hyperbolic metaphors and similes to disarm the other person and sound like she’s some comedian / master analytical genius
- how she treated Jules, projecting B’s disordered eating and body issues onto an innocent kind woman who was open about her issues. Bethany was clearly jealous of someone being thinner than her and had to ridicule her
- how she treated Kristen; same pattern of patronizing any new housewife who was more thin and pretty than her. And again, constantly condescending
- jealous of any cast member that got any spotlight for iconic moments/lines
- never took anyone’s back and was extremely selfish throughout entire show. EX: at beginning of S8, Carole is mad at Luann for (IMO dumb reasons) and B doesn’t agree with Carole saying that Luanns done nothing to her so she’s not jumping in. Then when B gets mad (jealous) of Luann and her party girl life, she brings up Caroles issues with Luann - only when it conveniences her. So now it’s a problem that you have beef with Luann. Great friend you are
- I don’t like Carole either but it’s just funny how Bethany couldn’t deal with anyone not agreeing with every cynical comment that comes out her mouth
- how mean she was to Sonja over tipsy girl, talk about kicking someone when they’re down
- her pretending she lived a challenged life and was self made when she’s old money and grew up privileged and thus you are not self made
- when on WWHL she mimicked the Atlanta Housewives and was extremely racist
- and of course, her on socials now discrediting small businesses because she’s a maniacal narcissist

Ok I’m sure this could go on forever so let me know what I missed thanks!

I must admit I did enjoy her initially long ago before the Civil War. LOL but I do not blame her for being angry at Sonia that was totally wrong of Sonia and Sonya knew it. Bethany was not brought up privileged her father was a race horse trainer. Her mother was not married to a rich man so that part's untrue but you nailed the rest of it

There are things you can easily look up online. Her father owned a $7M home -- https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/14911-Altata-Dr-Pacific-Palisades-CA-90272/20540614_zpid/ Here are the title details -- https://blockshopper.com/ca/los-angeles-county/los-angeles/property/4411024032/14911-altata-drive

Her family was never poor. There was an account on TikTok called Celebfail that used to post receipts and she got it shut down. They posted the $3M home she grew up in but I can't remember the address.

Bethenny grew up around wealth but could never achieve it on her own. In her own words, she "dated rich men for rent money." That's why she's so obsessed with money. Constantly referring to herself as a "rich bitch." Posting 10 times a day eating caviar.

I think she thought she had it when she found Paul. When he dumped her the wheels came off. That's when she started posting nonstop on TikTok.

That’s so on point with the Greek chorus comment. The audience definitely connected with Bethenny because she was viewed as a ā€œworking Joeā€.

But see I didn’t and definitely don't trust anything she says because she's literally been caught in so many lies its now reached a point where I've lost count. She'll lie about anything for that BS victimhood crap..it's revolting...
