The feud between Bethenny Frankel and Andy Cohen has a new chapter. The RHONY alum posted a TikTok responding to a remark Cohen made at Bravo Fan Fest. It comes days after his new book included a story about her.
RHONY: The Fan Fest Remark
Bethenny answered in a TikTok. She said Cohen took a swipe at her, so she would take the bait. His remark proves he is not active, she said, because “he’s still sitting in the same place I left him.” She also claimed the only thing that changed at Bravo is the ratings. She said he is upset that his original Housewives are now on The Golden Life at E! while he waits for Bravo to pay him.
Bethenny answered in a TikTok. She said Cohen took a swipe at her, so she would take the bait. His remark proves he is not active, she said, because “he’s still sitting in the same place I left him,” as Reality Blurb relayed it. She also claimed the only thing that changed at Bravo is the ratings. She said he is upset that his original Housewives are now on The Golden Life at E! while he waits for Bravo to pay him. A rep for Cohen was not immediately available for comment, according to Page Six.
RHONY: The Book
Cohen’s new book is Andy’s Bravo Scrapbook: Twenty Years Behind the Scenes of the Real Housewives and the Bravoverse. In it, he writes about a 2022 episode of Watch What Happens Live with Bethenny and Jeff Lewis. He says he thought the night went great. He writes that it marked the beginning of the end of their personal and professional relationship, and that he concluded Bethenny can dish it out but cannot take it.
On that episode, Cohen raised her Housewives recap podcast and pointed to her earlier criticism of the franchise. Bethenny said she left on her own and is not a disgruntled employee. She later said she felt ambushed by Cohen and Lewis.
RHONY: Fans Weigh In
Many commenters on her video defended Cohen. Some praised his career as a producer and called him one of the most successful in TV. Others said he is doing just fine.
RHONY: An Old Feud That Keeps Producing Content
Both of them benefit from the back and forth. She posts often, and he has a book to sell. Neither has changed his or her position in years. Whether this ends in a cameo, as Dorinda Medley suggested for The Golden Life, or not at all is not something either one has said they want.
