RHONY alum Bethenny Frankel doesn't know when she's getting married
RHONY's Bethenny Frankel told WWHL host Andy Cohen she's not sure when she'll marry Paul Bernon because she doesn't want to plan a wedding.
Bethenny Frankel of The Real Housewives of New York City updated Andy Cohen on her plans to marry longtime fiancé Paul Bernon on Watch What Happens Live. The Real Housewives alum joined the Bravo family as a cast member on RHONY Season 1, which premiered in March 2008. Bethenny's success continues with a show called Married Bethenny? (later renamed Bethenny Ever After), focused on her engagement and wedding to her second husband, Jason Hoppy. After announcing their split in 2012, the estranged couple began a bitter public legal battle that ended last year. Bethenny started dating her now fiancé Paul in 2018 and the pair got engaged in 2021 after a brief separation in 2020.
Bethenny recently sat down with Andy on his late-night talk show WWHL and recapped her appearance on Bravo's The Daily Dish. Bethenny says she's not sure when she'll marry her filmmaker fiancé. Echoing her previous comments, the B-Strong founder said that she is in no rush to get married and is enjoying life in the moment rather than harping on event details. It seems that logistical reasons are slowing down their plans, rather than rather than problems in the relationship. The power couple remains deeply committed, with Bethenny gushing about Paul, saying, "I'm happy to be a partner, I love him very much, but I don't want to plan a wedding."
Flipping Out's Jeff Lewis Questions RHONJ's Bethenny Frankel
In the WWHL bombshell, Bethenny also had a relationship with Another guest, Jeff Lewis, got into an altercation. As Bethenny and Andy discuss their latest drama surrounding her new podcast, the Flipping Out star faces some heat. Bethenny called Jeff "bitter" after he questioned what made her rewatch the podcast differently than all the others in the genre.
No stranger to the pitfalls of marriage, Bethenny may have been more hesitant to marry because of her two divorces. Her highly publicized divorce from her second husband seemed traumatizing, and the Skinnygirl CEO called the lengthy ordeal a nightmare. Bethenny's many business and philanthropic endeavors may also have kept her too busy planning her wedding. She seems to be working non-stop and also focused on her daughter, Brynn, over whom Bethenny has full legal custody. The mother and tycoon already has a myriad of responsibilities and wedding planning isn't the top priority right now her priority list.
Paul was more private than his TV personality counterpart, and their future wedding is likely to reflect that. Fans shouldn't expect another televised event. While Bethenny's Bravo wedding was grand and lavish, it seems like any upcoming nuptials will be more low-key. Real Housewives of New York City fans will be delighted to see Bethenny happily engaged, and don't expect the couple to rush.
