On the eve of Bethenny Frankel’s new “reality” show, Bethenny Getting Married?, the Real Housewives of New York City star revealed that she’s been married. Twice.
Bethenny Frankel may be a first time mom, but she’s not a first time bride.
The “Real Housewives of New York” star, who wed Jason Hoppy earlier this year, reveals to Life & Style that her recent walk down the aisle wasn’t her first.
Frankel’s first experience with marriage was in 1996, when she wed her former best friend, Peter Sussman.
“We were best friends for five years, and he always wanted to be more,” the natural-foods chef tells the mag.
No one likes Bethenny more than me, when we compare her to the other “real” housewives of New York and New Jersey, but this news about the straight forward Bethenny strikes us as highly hypocritical. If we are going to slam Teresa Giudice’s sham bankruptcy, and we are, then we must also slam Frankel. On RHNYC this season, we saw Bethenny come to grips with her estranged father’s death in Los Angeles, and now, upon hearing she was married in LA in 1996, and thinking back on how little we know of Bethenny’s past through the show and how she seemed to be building a career up from nowhere at 35, we know why.

She had this whole other life in California, Ms. New York Housewife, that nobody in the audience knew of. When does she reveal it? When the news is about to hit, and she’s gotta come clean for the sake of her new show.
So gross. What a pig. ‘I was too young, blah, blah, blah…’ Yesterday she’s a liar and today she’s a ‘get married when it’s right’ advocate? That’s great.
Frankel can win my affections back and her place as my favorite housewife if she comes clean about the rest of her secret life in California. Does she have to? Pretty much. These housewives think they are private people, and yet I have news sites that update my email on their every move. I will find out what I want to know, one way or another.
Is anybody even remotely honest? Bethenny’s Getting Married? Shocker. Great work, Andy Cohen.

Bethenny never concealed this information – she’s spoken of it before. Just because you didn’t know it, don’t assume someone is lying. You’re just trying to ride her coat tails the same way Jill Zarin is.

From today’s Daily News: ‘real housewives star…blah…blah…blah…reveals to Life and Style…blah…marriage not her first’…Morgaine? I watch the show. If she spoke of it, it wouldn’t be…the…daily…news…thanks for reading and commenting though. You’re the bomb, sis! Bethenny expert MorgaineSwann! Here’s to you!

I’ve watched this show for three seasons and I don’t ever recall Bethenny stating that she’d never been married.
I do recall her stating repeatedly she’d like to be married.
Most women who marry young and it doesn’t work out, who have moved on in their lives, don’t sit around and bemoan the fact that they were married ‘once’…
I just remarried 20 years after a bad divorce. I don’t deny the early marriage…it just never comes up in conversation and I certainly don’t give it much thought.

Sophie,
What of the timing of this revelation? She’d like to be married? No. She’d like to be married AGAIN. She is in the limelight, and her new show, “Bethenny’s Getting Married?” is compromised by her earlier marriage. Obviously, it’s not a stretch to think that she would get married, in light of the fact that she’s been married twice. I love Bethenny, really. But for a straight shooter, she was only forthcoming about herself when she absolutely had no other choice. It gets her show off on the wrong foot, in the least. You may not talk about your 1st marriage, as is your right as a private person. If they were making a show about your new marriage, do you think you might have mentioned it earlier than a day before the premiere of that show?
Kind Regards,
Crack

You are obviously not a journalist or else your background research is for poo. Bethenny clearly states IN THE PILOT EPISODE OF RHONY that she was married once and engaged two other times. Grow up… you are as big a busy-body and non-listener as the women on the show.

Jen,
Thanks for reading and commenting, but have you seen this site? I write mostly about Ecstasy and my name is Crackbillionair. That should tell you whatever you need to know…though my E entries are very well researched!

I agree with dc and Morgine. Bethenny has said numerous times that she has been married before. Pay attention..Pul-eeze!
