I don’t really follow Bethenny Frankel’s career and I didn’t watch “The Real Housewives of NY” when she was on. I’ve caught some of her solo reality show and found it mildly interesting. It struck me that she doesn’t have the best relationship with her new husband, but I really didn’t care too much about it either way. The thing that made me want to repeat this story is how incredibly bitchy and mean Bethenny’s mom Bernadette is being. This isn’t new, Bettheny has spoken out in the past about her terrible relationship with her mom, and her mom has denied Bettheny’s claims. As background I’ll include some of these priceless quotes from Bethenny’s mom in a July 2010 interview with The Enquirer. She’s such a bitch, but she amps it up in this more recent interview as I’ll cover in a moment:

Speaking about her mother in a recent interview, Bethenny, 39, stated: “I don’t want her to contact us and make it toxic. I’m never going to want her in my daughter’s life.”

A devastated Bernadette, 59, told The Enquirer: “I have kept my silence for many years. I didn’t want to say anything about the lies Bethenny has spread about me because she is my flesh and blood…”

Bettheny has claimed that her mom was a severe bulimic and “was always drinking.” Bernadette denies both allegations.

“I never got a DUI, and I couldn’t have held down the jobs I did if I had an alcohol problem,” she said. “They would have fired me…”

“I did everything I could to bond with her…

“All through her childhood, John [Bernadette’s husband] was funding her. But after that, he hit a bad patch and could no longer pay her credit card bills.

“So she went to live with Bobby. She changed her name from Bethenny Parisella to Bethenny Frankel and cut John and I off.”

Bethenny has spoken to Bernadette only twice in the past 10 years.

Listen to this lady. She wasn’t an alcoholic because she didn’t get a DUI and kept some jobs. That’s how alcoholics justify their addiction. She was living high on the hog with her husband, and then kicked her daughter out because they couldn’t afford her. It gets worse though. She’s moved from defending herself to trashing Bethenny and hoping that her life goes horribly wrong.

Describing her daughter as narcissistic, Bernadette says the highly strung and driven Bethenny will get what she needs from the relationship – children – before casing Jason aside.

“Right now, he is a good father, but soon she won’t need him and she will dump him,” Bernadette tells Star exclusively. “Her husband seems like a really nice guy, but it won’t last. He is really too weak for her”

Even worse, says Bernadette, Bethenny will always put money and power before everything else – including her own family.

“She sells everything because money and power is No. 1 for her, and there is never enough,” says Bernadette. “I find it amazing that she discusses having another child with her husband, but she barely has time for the first one…

“She only puts herself around people who can do something for her,” Bernadette says. “It is amazing how she turned out just like her father…”

Claims the Skinny Girl margarita was her idea
“When she was young, her godmother, Eleanor Mogavero, would come and visit, and her drink of choice was a margarita. She was overweight, so I’d make her really low-fat ones… But Bethenny would never give anyone credit – it goes against her narcissistic point of view.”

Holy crap! What do you do when your mom treats you like that – in public no less?! I guess you do what Bethenny does, you basically ignore the nasty wench. It’s awful that there are people like this in the world, whose hatred of everything, even their own family, just eats them up inside. I’ve had some issues with my mom, but they seem absolutely insignificant compared to this. My mom sometimes tells me what to do with my kid and I find it annoying, but she doesn’t put me down at all. This is incredible to me that there are people who talk like this about their own kids.
