Carole Radziwill claims she’s still rooting for her “strained” friendship with fellow Real Housewives of New York City cast member Bethenny Frankel…
But if Carole’s recent blog post is any indication, uh, this sure is an interesting way of showing support!
On Thursday afternoon, Radziwill unleashed a SCATHING blog post about Frankel on her personal blog, just a day after Wednesday’s episode of RHONY had seen Frankel call out Carole for being “on different pages” about Bethenny’s B Strong relief effort in Puerto Rico.

Frankel went further on the show to insult Radziwill’s on-again, off-again boyfriend Adam Kenworthy — and that proved to be too much for Carole to let slide!
In response to all that drama on the Bravo show itself, Radziwill didn’t hold back, hitting back at each and every single point in the long, vicious blog.
She started it out with no less than a hell of an opener (below):
“As a woman, it makes me sad to watch another women, who I thought was my friend, talk behind my back with such cattiness and disrespect. But it makes good television and in the end that is Bethenny’s one true friend. Unlike Bethenny, I don’t need to be biting and self-righteous in order to make myself feel better, smarter, or more successful. I hardly recognize the woman on television shaming women simply for having different opinions and interests. Since when is it ever okay to insult a woman’s accomplishments? Her career? Especially in 2018 when women have finally found the courage to speak their truth?”
Wow!

Radziwill also took serious exception to Bethenny calling out her (lack of) a career, pointing out that she’s done significant work in the past and pushing a very strong note about Frankel’s brand (below):
“I will put my resume up against Bethenny Frankel’s any day of the week. When Bethenny was auditioning for B movies, I was traveling for ABC News to places similar to what you saw in Puerto Rico. After that I worked in publishing and wrote for national magazines, and now yes, I am on Reality TV. The entirety of Bethenny’s career, other than some minor success she had as a caterer, has been in Reality TV. From Apprentice to Housewives and all that it has brought her ├óΓé¼ΓÇ¥ including launching her Skinnygirl business ├óΓé¼ΓÇ¥ Reality TV has been very good to her. She worked hard, and I’m glad to see she is giving back. I’ve been her biggest cheerleader. I show up at all her launch parties, from booze to sparklers to candy. Last year in Mexico, I wore my Skinnygirl hardhat with enormous pride.”
Well said!!!
As for Puerto Rico itself, Carole wonders whether this is the first time Bethenny has ever seen true poverty, and thus that’s why it’s affecting her so greatly (below):
“I’m glad to see my friend Bethenny step outside her affluent bubble, with her stream of rich boyfriends, rich friends with private planes, million dollar homes, and five-star resort vacations. One gets the impression this is the first time she’s witnessed real poverty. It can be life-changing. I know it was for me, many years ago when I first covered tragedies as a journalist. The shock of having, then losing, one’s home and all its possessions (and having the guts and dignity to soldier on) is awe-inspiring. It is partly why I quietly give money to charities and political campaigns I believe will make a difference in the world. And why, years ago, I created my own charitable foundation … It is a good use of celebrity, and I hope this journey will make Bethenny a wiser and kinder person closer to home too. From the looks of it, she’s got a ways to go.”
Wow!!!

And finally, Radziwill addresses Kenworthy, too (below):
“He is building his business, and he has to hustle ├óΓé¼ΓÇ¥ you’d think if anyone would understand that it’s Bethenny. How quickly she forgets the struggle. He suggested switching one client’s day but couldn’t afford to lose his day rate ├óΓé¼ΓÇ¥ certainly not to take pictures of Bethenny to post on her social media.”
Damn… Bethenny got CALLED OUT.
What do U think, Perezcious readers?!
