Kelly Bensimon, the psycho gummy bear eating twit of the New York crew, weighed in on Bethenny’s departure:
Yesterday afternoon, Bethenny Frankel, 39, announced that she wouldn’t be returning to Bravo’s Real Housewives of New York after three seasons. Eventually, the news got to her ultimate enemy, THE Kelly Bensimon. And in true Kelly fashion, she had a little message for Bethenny:
“Congratulations? I wish you well?”
Ah, I love a good passive aggressive question mark at the end of a statement.
Bethenny Frankel Quits The Real Housewives of New York
Kelly, 42, who fought with Bethenny all season long, has been rumored to be leaving the show/only working part-time. She cleared up those rumors, saying:
“I was just asked to come back and we haven’t negotiated everything yet,” she clarified. “But I can answer honestly I would either come back or I wouldn’t come back — we don’t do part-time.”
So Kelly doesn’t do part time, or Bravo doesn’t do part time? I’ve gotta admit, I was hoping for a snarky comment from good ol’ Bensimon. Now that Bethenny has some time to spare, maybe she can take a trip back to Scary Island.

Imagine how happy Jill Zarin must be! Only one problem: they don’t have much of a show without Bethenny. She was the heart and soul of that show. Imagine “Sex in the City” without Sarah Jessica Parker. Why? Because Bethenny was the only truly honest one. Alex and Simon were all about the social climbing, Ramona has an occasional burst of batshit crazy, but not enough to carry the show, Jill Zarin is too full of jealousy, malice and hate to be interesting, a true ratings killer, and her family is downright annoying. Kelly Bensimon is too psychotic to be on any show, she should be put away without benefit of keys. That leaves Sonja Morgan to liven things up. Don’t know if she can pull it off. Oh, and LuAnn de Lesseps, so unimportant I forgot her.
Be careful what you wish for, ladies….
Teresa Giudice of Bravo’s Real Housewives of New Jersey is said to be in a dispute with producers over her salary. She’s even threatened to leave the show if she doesn’t get more money. It was reported earlier this week that the show had been renewed for a third season, with production beginning this Friday. Monday’s reunion episode part one scored the highest ratings in Bravo history.
In other Teresa Giudice news, she has sold her story to In-Touch magazine. The headline says addiction, lies and betrayal, and she talks about Joe’s cheating. Interesting that she’ll tell her story for money, but Teresa will do anything for money these days.
Speaking of which……
She’s about to launch a makeup line, joining Gretchen Rossi in that ill-fated pursuit. Loads of snark could be inserted here. Add your own.
