Bethenny Frankel is shutting down Carole Radziwill’s claim that Michael Cohen took the infamous photos of Tom D’Agostino cheating.
The Real Housewives of New York OG slams Carole Radziwill’s “stupid’ claim that Donald Trump’s former attorney, Michael Cohen, was the one who snapped the infamous photo of Tom D’Agostino kissing another woman at The Regency.
“Only because I love you and because many of you have asked me in the comments will I comment on something so insignificant and so stupid, and it is that no, Michael Cohen did not take the photo at The Regency of Tom,” Bethenny Frankel said in a now-deleted TikTok, according to Page Six.
Bethenny Frankel claimed that a woman took the photo and that she is “texting me right now on this very phone.”
“[She] just sent me our original text and the photo, and it was the photo, and underneath it, it said, ‘Maybe you should make different New Year’s Eve plans’ – which I don’t even know what that means,” the Skinnygirl mogul continued.
“It’s dangerous to listen to just anybody spew their mouth off about something they know nothing about,” the 52-year-old concluded.
Earlier this week, Carole Radziwill appeared on Heather McDonald’s Juicy Scoop podcast, where she claimed that Michael Cohen told her that he was the one who took the infamous photo of Tom D’Agostino.
According to Carole, she was out to dinner with friends six months ago when Cohen popped up and insisted he was the one who took that infamous photo of Tom at The Regency.
“We started talking about Tom or the wedding, and he’s like, ‘Oh please, of course, I know Tom, Who do you think took the picture?’” Carole explained.
“So he [Cohen] was talking about Dennis, and then he started talking about Tom, and he said, ‘I took the picture,’ and I was like, ‘The picture that was on [‘RHONY’]?’ And he was like, ‘Yeah, I took it,’” she continued.“Michael Cohen had taken the photo that ended up being forwarded to Bethenny and ended up being on the show.”
Carole notes that Cohen was good friends with Bethenny’s late fiancé, Dennis Shields, who passed away in 2018. Cohen sent the picture to Dennis. He then shared it with Bethenny, who was on vacation with the RHONY cast in Miami.
Back in 2016, Real Housewives of New York star Luann de Lesseps had just gotten engaged to Tom D’Agostino after a whirlwind romance. However, Luann’s joy was cut short when Bethenny Frankel told her that she had photos of Tom kissing another woman at The Regency.
The identity of who was behind sending the photo remained one of the biggest mysteries in Real Housewives of New York history. And it seems it will remain that way unless Bethenny Frankel decides to spill the tea.
Season 14 of RHONY airs on Sundays at 9 p.m. ET/PT.
