Real Housewives of NYC’s Bethenny Frankel To Televise Wedding!

Bethenny Frankel

It seems Bethenny Frankel, star of Bravo’s The Real Housewives of New York City, has had a change of heart, as she will now reportedly wed before becoming a first time mother.

Bethenny had said in past interviews that she intended to marry fiance, Jason Hoppy, after giving birth, so why the sudden change? Well the NYPost is reporting Bethenny changed the date of her wedding to fit Bravo’s shooting schedule for her upcoming reality show – ‘Bethenny’s Getting Married?’

The Post reports Bethenny’s wedding will take place at the Four Seasons and the invitations which have been sent out stated the following - “This event will be videotaped and re corded for use in and in connection with the television pro gram tentatively entitled ‘Bethenny’s Get ting Married?’ By attending, you are consenting to the use of your name, voice and likeness in and in connection with ‘Bethenny’s Getting Married?’ and any other production, in any and all media now known or later devised, worldwide, in perpetuity, including in advertisements and promotions.”

Another “source” is however telling The Post Bethenny might have had another reason for pushing up her wedding date. “If she’s a heavily pregnant bride, she’ll get more attention. The other housewives are so grossed out by how fake she is, none will attend the wedding unless Bravo makes them,” says the insider. “She doesn’t even want the other wives at her wedding. She feels she’s a bigger star.”

  1. She just met this guy and is having his baby in within a mere year of meeting the chap.

    Where did this guy from anyway?

    And ick, watch, Gretchen will probably be the next to have their stupid spin-off of a wedding to Slade.

  2. WTF,
    You know Slade is taking some serious notes on what Bethenny is doing so that he can get his…I mean Gretchen…a show on their wedding!
    I still don’t know how I feel about the whole Bethenny, wedding, boyfriend situtation. It is just to new. Desperately seeking attention to get free stuff because you are pregnant is pretty gross.

  3. I have always enjoyed Bethenny. Here is hoping this does not turn into a 2010 version of Star Jones nuptials.

    I think Bethany is the most real house wife yet. Have you not seen this season??? Jill and Luann have done nothing but talk aobut the other cast members behind their backs and go on every tv show bashing the cast members that are not there!!!! Bethany is my favorite, I wish her well and hope Jason is for real!!

  5. I like Bethenny, but let’s face it, All ofThe women on the Real Housewives series think they are star’s, when in reality they are only personalities. A star is someone like Nicole Kidman, who oozes beauty and grace.

    The ladies on the Housewives series are just a step above what we could see on Jerry Springer.

    If you put white makeup on her she would look just like The Joker.

  7. MelBel,

    I know! I don’t know where this Jason-chap appeared out of nowhere from? I hope he is sincere and not another Slade using a woman who is on a TV show to get his face out there too.

    What does this guy do anyway?

    I could believe more if she hooked up with Bradley Cooper (from the movie: THE HANGOVER), because he’s a newbie on TV too. She was once linked to A-Rod even, but she hooks up to this chap, who even resembles Bradley Cooper a little bit, :) and I just hope he’s not another “Fame Chaser” like Alexis and Jim.

    Alexis and Jim were FameChasers and it’s known that they stalked Gretchen, Jeana and Tamra to infiltrate the scene.

    Watch, Jason will come out with his own Tequila business or some BS like that.

  8. Yes Tootsie you are right..some worse than others NeNe, Kim Jill ,Gretchen, Bethenny.. Doesn’t make them bad people, just alittle goofy,nutso, batso.. they are personalities on a Reality Show for crying out loud..Bravo refers to them as Bravolebrities.

  9. Help Me Rhonda,

    :)

    You are too funny!
    So true!

  10. Hi, Dyana,

    Yes, they forget where they came from!
    They are aren’t even TV personalities at that. They started off auditioning and getting hand-picked to be on the shows. If we were auditioning, any one of us could be in their shows too. They are normal people, that have successfully crossed-over into TV personalities. They took the attention and so-called fame they got from their shows, and basically ran with it. Some ran further than others, by attaching their names on products, and writing books and all that crap, to keep their names out there.

    Really when it comes down to it, you could join Gretchen’s gym, and befriend her, or buy a car from Simon and buy a house from Jeana, with the same intent Alexis and Jim have done. It’s not hard to do, they are REAL people, not celebrities. You wouldn’t have that easy access with celebrities like you do with them. That’s the difference! They are Reality Stars!

  11. I guess our question is answered……. Hillbilly stye. I bet Bravo pulled a bait and switch on her and told her at first it would be after the baby popped. I don’t blame the others for not attneding. Can’t wait for the pics of her joker face w/ baby joker face all over the tabs.

  12. Hi WTF.. you are right! Hey if they are such “T.V.Stars” where are their Awards??

    Hi puhp…LOL Hilbilly Style..Wasn’t that the question last week, didn’t take long for it to get answered huh?

  13. WTF, Regarding #7
    If this boyfriend comes out trying to market something (ie tequila…another freakin’ book) I will vomit and try to market that myself. It does make you wonder????

    I am so glad there are comments on her face. What is up with all the make up this season??? I have noticed Jill has been caking the stuff on too. All they need is some shoulder pads and I am being blasted back to the 80′s. You never know, they could bring them back for marketing purposes :)

    Okay, they really are not celebraties. The are not even real housewives, follow me around for a day, that is a real housewife. No nannies, fashion shows, events. Maybe a trip to the acme and no hamptons, Jershey Shore!! lol

    besides, who knows if any of this stuff is even true that we read on the internet. I do know that if somebody else would have paid for my wedding I would have had it televised!!

  16. I know!

    Remember the very first season of the Real Housewives, before the spin-offs, and when Bravo had originally decided to take the Desperate Housewives show and use real ones instead? The original were normal wealthy wives. There was Kimberly (who left the show and moved to Chicago because of her skin cancer. There was Jo (the hispanic live-in fiance of Slade (who actually had a job back then), there was Vicki, Jeana and Lauri, who was working for Vicki, making an honest living. That season was fun, even after they added Quinn and Tammy Knickerbocker to the mix, even Tamra made a nice addition to the show.

    But when they brought in Gretchen, with her fake storyline romance to the ailing Jeff, and then brought back Slade, and now Alexis and Jim, who ironically are BEST BUDS with the duos, then show has lost it’s reality. It’s still fun to watch, but they should have brought on REAL wives and not actor-wanna-bes and Fame chasers!

    I agree although I did not like the rhoc this season. I felt like it dragged on. I hope they get rid of Alexis and Jim, Gretchen and Slade and bring back Tammy and Laurie. I agree, it was more fun to watch.

  18. Geeze and they pretty much got along, lived with in their means..It wasn’t all hearts and flowers but it was nothing like it turned into..My how things did change!

  19. I thought her old boyfriend, Jason, got fired from Wall Street because of her being on the RH show. Then she tects her new boyfriend her nude billboard picture…?

    She keeps saying she never had implants because it was a “lift”! Well, they put an implant in there when they do a breast lift. That is the only way they do it. I should know because I had all the consults and had it done….
    If she is the “honest” one, why doesn’t she just say that? She pretends to be a natural chef, but I think it is all fake. I think she just wants to be really skinny and sell books. Just my opinion.

  20. Ewwwwww. I just vomited in my mouth!

  21. @lorie bemel
    Bethenny is the fakest yet. If she hadn’t used Jill, she wouldn’t have all of this. If you remember in the past episode she said that a year ago she didn’t have the book, Margarita, etc. but with connections i.e. Jill, look where that got her.

    @jamie
    I agree 100%.

  22. Jamie,

    A breast lift does not involve implants.. A lift is like a face lift. no implants again.. gawd

    its also known as mastopexy, a breast lift raises and firms the breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue to reshape and support the new breast contour.

    It is plastic surgery but no implants are involved.. Some woman suffer from sagging skin and elect this process to reshape from either having children or just having bad genes.

    that is all

  23. Um, Jamie #19, respectfully, you are incorrect. I am sitting here 2 months post op from an inplant removal/lift and I DID NOT get replacements implants. I actually went for a few consultations, and no PC questioned my motive – I am just smaller, and happily so! BTW, I believe Jill also got a reduction/lift w/o implants as well, and she’s looking much more petite. Actually, seeing Alexass’s boobs that are the larger than as her head, Icki looking matronly with her huge tates and others in this group helped me to make my decision!!

  24. Christina,

    I would like to know how Jill helped Bethanny to write all the 3 books out now and now a new one to be released soon. Bethennys first book was on the NY times best seller list for 12 weeks and the second one as well but I dont know how many weeks.. Did Jill write them for her or provide the content? Did jill invent the skinny margherita? OMG peeps.. Jill gave Beth the confidence to seek her dreams.. Gave her a shoulder to cry on and helped to lift her up. That is immeserable but by no means can Jill take credit for Beths success since it is Beths talent that made her a cool 3 mill last year..

    I’m just saying…

  25. Forgot to mention on my last post, that being said, I do believe Bethanny has implants, with or without the lift. Photos of her show a definitive upper ridge, venturing a guess hers are over the pec muscle . . .

  26. K Wow..

    I am not so sure about Bethanny.. Her bubbies do look a bit fake but you never know from the work out regime she has but who knows. I dont think she would lie about it since she is so brutally honest and is self loathing all the time.. I am just saying this out of my observation of her character..

    Again.. I am not privy to her bubbies.. so I cant really say!! :-)

    I cant stand when peeps makes statements where they dont even make the time to indulge themselves info. Its too easy to do that…

    Glad you also chimed in on the bubbies lift and hope you are feeling better enough and in time for the summer to sport your summer wear. I myself is also naturally endowed and enjoy my bubbies. I fortunately dont suffer from the ills of to large and making me look to heavy. I think mine are perfect and my best assets :-)

  27. Crap.. my other post dissapeared..

    Kwow.. I want to say I agree with you on Jill breast reduction. Her bubbies made her look bigger than she actually was. That is an issue for alot of woman who are well endowed. Jill made a good move and the improvement is fantastic. Some woman would not of made that move for fear that they are defined with the bubbies.. Jill was bery brave and good for her.

    I’m just saying..

  28. I’m Just Sayin’ – thanks for the kind thoughts – I’m feeling great! I’m glad you love YOUR bubbies – I found it very cathartic to come back to the real “me”. Guess sometimes that’s a little gift from getting older and wiser!! Maybe that’s why I’m sad when I see girls, especially Heidi Montag, who are, or become “defined” (as you mentioned) – by their artifically enhanced assets.

  29. Definitely implants, and I agree, almost certainly over the muscle (which means it’s very possible she has needed to have them lifted once already, since it’s just skin supporting sizeable implants). Very thin/fit people rarely have such disproportionately large breasts naturally, and cosmetic surgeons have made a mint cashing in on this. I agree that big boobs on a small woman generally make her look much heavier than she is.

    Bethenny is taking full advantage of her 15 minutes of fame. While I think it’s a little odd she’s moved so quickly with this relationship, to the point she’s made during the show, it’s not like she has a lot of time left to have kids.

  30. I can shed a little light on the whole Bethenny boobs discussion here. I don’t know if hers are implants now or not – my vote would be for “Yes, they are” – but she definitely had her breasts lifted, and let me tell you, as much as anyone could, she “needed” it.

    If you do a search for nude pictures of her (Bethenny Frankel), you’ll find that she did a nude scene in some Z-movie back in the 90s. Even then, when she was in her mid-20s, her breasts did not look good. She’s lying down on a lounge chair by a pool or something, and they were flat like pancakes against her chest. Not particularly sexy or attractive.

    Now, no one really “needs” to have their boobs lifted – but she really did.
