Carole Radziwill Calls Former BFF Bethenny Frankel ‘Shrewd’ and ‘Not Very Intelligent’

Bethenny Frankel slams Carole Radziwill's claims about Regency photo of Tom D'Agostino

Carole Radzwill slammed former BFF and RHONY co-star Bethenny Frankel in a comment on social media this week.

Once upon a time, former Real Housewives of New York stars Carole Radziwill and Bethenny Frankel were the best of friends, that is, until their friendship turned sour right in front of our eyes during season 10.

Since then, the two haven’t had a pleasant word to say about the other. Even all these years later, the two can’t seem to stop taking digs at each other every chance they get.

Carole Radziwill and Bethenny Frankel

Earlier this week, a Real Housewives fan page called Housewife Haikus shared a post about Bethenny Frankel’s battle against Bravo and NBC Universal over unfair treatment and inadequate pay.

“Bethenny is smart, no question about it. But would she be who she is without Bravo? I don’t think so. This whole thing is an interesting move, and I’ll be interested to see how it shakes out,” the post from Housewife Haikus read.

The post caught the attention of RHONY alum Carole Radziwill, who decided to toss in her two cents on the matter. In doing so, Carole slammed Bethenny Frankel as “shrewd” and “not very intelligent.”

“Shrewed [sic] perhaps, but she’s actually not very intelligent,” Carole chimed in.

Of course, Carole’s spelling mistake caused a frenzy on the post, forcing the former journalist to clap back and double down on her claims about Bethenny Frankel.

“Here’s the thing: people in this country equate accumulation of wealth with intelligence even in the face of a mountain of evidence to the contrary,” Carole commented.

She added, “Money does not equal intelligence. So I said what I said.”

Carole sucks. Seriously what a piece of shit human.

Carole is dumb and only has money from her dead husband who only married her after he knew he had cancer. She is so jealous. Bethenny has self mad money, a child and a fiancé. Carole has NONE of those things.

Next to "mean girl bully" in the dictionary is the definition "Carole Radziwill". She is not someone you would want in your friend group unless you are just like her. I can see her tormenting those who just don't fit or are insecure. Horrible person.

It doesnt' ge much worse than Bethenny.

Bethenny has been doing worse to people for years. Any time anyone had a different opinion than Bethenny she would shred them. Carole doesn't even come close to the toxicity that Bethenny's been spouting since she joined RHONY. Don't get me wrong, I like Bethenny, but I call it like I see it.

That is exactly why I could never stand Carole Radziwill. She fancies herself a princess and has convinced herself that she is the smartest person in whatever room she's in and well above the fray of the little people. However the fact is....she's not and she's not and she's not. Nothing but a legend in her own mind.

Ha! A writer! Who can’t spell “shrewd”!” As always, Carole opens her mouth and sounds like a complete idiot. What happened to turn her against her former bestie-because we saw none of it on RHONY.

Bethenny wanted to control her life and Carole was sick of it.

Carole, just go away. You try and present yourself as this cool bohemian princess when in reality, we saw a slob stuck in her ‘20’s mindset.
