Bethenny Frankel shades ‘obsessive’ Luann de Lesseps after close-call run-in

Former “Real Housewives of New York City” star Bethenny Frankel did not miss the opportunity to shade fellow alum Luann de Lesseps after the frenemies’ close-call run-in at a Broadway show late last month.

An insider previously told Pvnew that de Lesseps had stormed out of the opening night of “Bad Cinderella” after realizing she had been seated near Frankel. However, the singer later claimed she “left with [her] date” because she was “feeling bad.”

Taking to her “ReWives” podcast earlier this week, Frankel took a moment to “respond by saying this: It must be painful and challenging and really obsessive to be so fixated on someone else.”

The Skinnygirl mogul, 52, went on to say she feels “badly” for the “Countess Cabaret” star, who apparently “spends a lot of time talking about [her] in her cabaret and in the media and on podcasts.”

“It’s time to sort of focus on yourself versus being so consumed with somebody else,” the mother of one added before signing off with a zinger.

“I wish her the very, very best, and I wish her a speedy recovery if she didn’t feel well during ‘Bad Cinderella’ halfway through.”

Frankel — who attended the musical with her 12-year-old daughter, Bryn Hoppy — maintained that the only reason she was bringing up de Lesseps was that her fans were demanding a response to what was described to us as an emotionally charged walk-out.

The businesswoman insisted that the former countess, 57, is “not really on [her] radar,” nor does she “spend a lot of time thinking about” her.

De Lesseps did not immediately respond to Pvnew’s request for comment.

The ex-Bravolebrities — who helped launch “RHONY” in 2008 — have a long and well-documented history of ill will.

When Frankel first left the reality series in 2019, a “relieved” de Lesseps celebrated the departure because it left “breathing room for other women to shine and show their personalities because a lot was Bethenny coming in and stealing the show.”

The “Feelin’ Jovani” songstress also felt that the BStrong founder used the platform to “promote” her brands but did not support her castmates when they tried to do the same.

Their feud reared its ugly head last year when Frankel launched her “Real Housewives” rewatch podcast.

De Lesseps thought the venture was hypocritical given that “desperate” Frankel had spent the majority of her years away from the franchise “sh–ting on the show.”
