Did Bethenny Frankel Have A Falling Out With Andy Cohen?

October 19, 2012 | By | 42 Replies Continue Reading

Reports are surfacing that Andy Cohen and Bethenny Frankel have had a falling out because of Andy not being invited to appear on Bethenny’s new talk show, and vice-versa, Bethenny turning down appearances on Andy’s late night show Watch What Happens Live.

Radar Online is reporting that there has been a falling out and that Bethenny is snubbing Andy now that she has taken off thanks to Andy making her a household name on Real Housewives of New York and her Bravo spin-offs. An insider tells Radar, “Bethenny has basically completely snubbed Andy. He has asked her to do his show multiple times over the past year and she has refused because she wants to distance herself from the housewives franchise. Andy is very hurt by Bethenny’s actions because he made her a star by badgering Bravo to give her a spin-off which was enormously popular. Once Bethenny formally signed the deal for her own talk show with Telepictures, she kicked Andy to the curb, never to look back. Andy thought Bethenny would always be loyal to him, but he realizes he got used by her.”

Besides giving her a platform on TV, Andy has also always been a supporter of Bethenny and her business ventures, having a Skinnygirl bottle behind him on WWHL as a placement to promote her beverage line. The source adds, “He has done so much for her, and not just TV wise. During the launch of Skinnygirl Andy proudly promoted it by featuring it as a prop on his show for over two years! Yes, Bethenny is extremely talented but for her to turn her back on Andy is just disgusting. What goes around comes around, Bethenny is on top of the world right now but that might not last. Andy won’t be able to forget how quickly she ditched him once she got her own show.”

Could it be that the two are not friends anymore?!

Andy took to his Twitter today and squashed the rumors, saying, “sorry folks, @Bethenny DID invite me on her show & she’s coming on mine in a week. What else you got?”

This comes on the heels of Jill Zarin calling out Andy for playing favorites with the Housewives. Do you think this helps his claims that he does not play favorites?!

    Smells like a story planted by Jill Zarin to me. RumorFix always was one of her favorites.

    Haaaaaaaaaa! Sucks to get left in the wind doesn’t it MAndy…. Now u know how T feels! LMAO

      B-I-N-G-O! Supposedly it says in Bravo’s contract that HWs may “lose their families”. Well, Andy, looks like you may be bit by the very poison you so love to promote.
      I don’t feel 1 bit bad for him, he doesn’t seem to care about lives/families torn apart on any of his shows.
      On the other hand, while I don’t watch Bethenny, I support her success 100%. Womanpower! If her show, her drinks, anything-Bethenny woulda flopped, it woulda flopped with or without Bravo’s help. There was no guarantee RHONY would be a successful franchise, but it has been & partly because Bethenny was on it.
      Get it, Andy? She helped put YOU on the map. Perhaps now you’re starting to get your comeuppance – one can hope.

    I smell Jill Zarin…. ;)

    • real Real Housewife says:

      Sorry, but based on what I have seen on wwhl and Bethanny ever after, nether Bethanny or Andy need any help in being vile.

  5. Ms K Swiss says:

    Andy is in cahoots with Wendy Williams and Anderson Cooper

  6. teresa says:

    It is a crock of chit, for sure!! I think Andy and Bethenny will be bff’s for life! Bethenny is extremely talented. she’ll be around many years to come and she’ll help Andy out in any way that she can, he’ll to the same because they’re bff’s. So, shut the hell up, JILL,you used Bethenny and it backed fired on your azz.

  7. Heidi says:

    I knew this was just rumors from both Bethenny & Andy’s tweets & her comments in print on the excellent relationship she has with Bravo as a whole. However, glad to see that Andy stepped up to the plate & terminated the rumors……

  8. diana says:

    Even if she does appear on WWHL, she hasn’t appeared in quite a while and hard to believe she hasn’t been asked so that is believable, but since her show filmed in LA and he does his show 4 nights a week from NYC, dont really believe that one.. But why bring Jill into this? Couldnt it just be another rumor?

  9. P. Long says:

    Great example of why u don’t believe everything people have to put out there.

  10. stalina says:

    i don’t mean to be unkind, but bethenny is SOOOO hard to look at. her voice is equally abrasive to me. i will never understand how she got a talk show.

  11. mari says:

    Is her talk show still on? I saw they had tested it out in the summer but i haven’t seen it since?

    • socalsoccer says:

      Her show was picked up for 2013.
      I think it will be on Fox. I did not like the talk show. She talks way too much and the guest
      barely gets a word in.

  12. melinda says:

    In the words of Joe Giudice, “who cares?” Glad she isn’t on Bravo, didn’t try her products, didn’t watch her summer test of her talk show. Won’t watch her talk show. She is a bundle of negativity, and it is always how someone did her wrong…her parents, Jill, her mother, and now her husband. I believe she is a user and has used people to get where she is..God bless, if that’s what makes you happy or you like doing business. Karma, people, karma.

    • real Real Housewife says:

      Yes agree. She takes advantage of the people who work for her too. Not a fan of self absorbed Bethanny or self absorbed Andy for that matter.

    • Just sayin says:

      I don’t know that she is a user, but to get ahead you have to walk over a few people unfortunately. I did try her skinny girl margarita and sangria, not bad and alot let calories.

  13. Shipp says:

    I don’t know what’s true or not between those two and I don’t care. All I know is I want to give Bethenny a sandwich. Jeez, have something to eat girl.

  14. renee says:

    All I can say is, who cares?

  15. Dizzy B says:

    Good for her for making a name for herself, but her Skinnygirl Margarita’s are HORRIBLE!! I cannot believe any company would pay for that crap!!!

  16. Elizabeth says:

    I AGREE,SO IS HER WINES TOO…… WHO CARES!!!!!

  17. Crystal says:

    I like Bethenny and think she is a very talented business woman. I watched a few of her shows and was very disappointed. All she talked about was sex. I know its her show, but her guests should be allowed to talk also. I am not a prude, but don’t want to watch a show that talks about sex so much.

  18. beverly says:

    Without a doubt.. Jill all over the place. This woman needs to get a grip. It’s embarrassing.

  19. sana says:

    it looks like he is supporting her to stand!! She really needs to eat something.. she looks EXTREMLY THIN!!!

    • Just sayin says:

      you know that was my first thought when I saw the pic too, she looks sickly. Way too think, Curvy girls are more fun, Bethany needs to eat something fast.

  20. Bionic says:

    ZzzZzzzzzzzzz Isn’t odd that her name it is usually tied to the word “used”.

    Oh. ok.
