Bethenny Frankel has a message for Andy Cohen after the Bravo host’s shady message about her TikTok usage.
Andy, 58, moderated a panel during Bravo Fan Fest on Saturday, October 24, where Carole Radziwill was asked whether she could see Bethenny, 55, also return to The Real Housewives of New York City.
“I don’t know if she’d come back,” Carole, 63, noted, per social media footage. “That’s way above my pay grade. That’s Andy’s [decision].”
Andy, an executive producer for the Housewives franchise, succinctly clapped back for being brought into the conversation.
“I’m not really active on TikTok,” he quipped, shrugging his shoulders.
Bethenny left RHONY for good ahead of season 12, since focusing on her various business ventures. She also frequently shares life updates via social media.
“Andy Cohen took a swipe at me on a panel, so let’s take the bait,” she said in a Saturday social media video of her own. “He said, ‘I’m not really active on TikTok,’ which is abundantly clear ‘cause he’s still sitting in the same place I left him. The only thing that has changed are the ratings.”
Bethenny posited that Andy likely seemed “a little bitter” that many of the OG RHONY stars have left Bravo.
“We’re over here making our own coin, our own way, on our own terms,” she added.
Neither Andy nor Bravo has publicly addressed Bethenny’s comments. Us has reached out for comment.
As for the Skinnygirl founder, she’s paying no mind to Andy’s diss.
“If you’re going to take a shot at this B, you better not miss,” she concluded. “You’re welcome.”
The former Bravo star is known for sharing blunt takes in often-viral social media videos.
“I believe that trust and attention are the two most valuable assets right now in media. I think that if you can have both, it’s unbelievable,” Bethenny said during a May appearance on the “Aspire” podcast, discussing her TikTok strategy. “People don’t have to like me, but they do trust me, and I do have their attention. I mean, there’s data to prove that.”
While Bethenny acknowledged that she doesn’t “try to be hated,” she isn’t afraid to fire back.
“I am aware that the people that hated Howard Stern were tuning in for twice as long. I’m aware that the haters live for me. So, they’re a currency,” she quipped. “And so, I’ll just clap back. I’ll be like, ‘Well, you’re right here, so thank you for being here, and get your popcorn out ‘cause you’re going to hate me even more in about a moment.’”
