Bethenny Frankel appeared on TikTok Thursday as she recounted what she called a ‘s**t week.’
On the Fourth of July, the 53-year-old Real Housewives of New York City alum recorded herself in bed as she lamented her recent days, following news that her ex Paul Bernon, 45, is dating Aurora Culpo, 35.
‘My mother dying when I was at a low was like a 1, maybe this was like a 3,’ Frankel admitted in the tense clip, which she documented from her home in The Hamptons.
‘I didn’t sleep all week,’ she told her 1.8 million followers.
Frankel was propped up in bed with her dog, dressed in a multicolor hooded sweater with her dark hair pulled back.

She wrote, ‘Happy Fourth,’ across the video in white font and in the caption put, ‘Crap week,’ adding hashtags.
‘By no means am I going to pretend like I’m livin’ la vida loca,’ she said to viewers, adding, ‘because I’m livin’ la vida no-ca.’
Bethenny didn’t mention her ex or Aurora explicitly, but promised fans, ‘I’ll tell you all about it this week on the podcast,’ referring to her Just B podcast series.
As for her 14-year-old daughter Bryn, who is with her in the Hamptons, she said, ‘I’m thrilled that Bryn’s with her friend. She’s next door doing Americana and at a barbecue.’
As she continued her monologue, Bethenny said she’s trying ‘not to bust out’ as she took a deep breath.
Then she emphasized that her week has been ‘s**t on a cracker.’
She clarified it was nothing that she did, using the metaphor that she ‘got dragged behind a car for no reason.’
To cope, she said she was going to watch the television series Sons of Anarchy.

‘I’m going to watch Sons of Anarchy and watch them kill some people, otherwise I’m gonna do it,’ the former reality television personality stated.
And she said that taking a nap on Thursday was her ‘Met Gala.’
The Skinny Girl Margarita founder also revealed she ate ‘a bag of chips, some Swedish candy, and a can of Amy’s lentil soup.’
The mother-of-one sarcastically added, ‘It was sexy as f**k,’ before also sharing that she ‘had a grapefruit margarita in bed, as one does.’
News broke days before Olivia Culpo’s Rhode Island ceremony that Aurora is dating Bethenny’s ex-fiancé — a month after their split was announced.
Olivia had a strict guest policy at her wedding to Christian McCaffrey and shared why her older sister, Aurora’s new beau was ‘not invited’ on the Wednesday episode of her Barely Filtered podcast.
Aurora called her sister’s decision ‘rude,’ to which the former pageant queen replied, ‘No, [it’s] rude to invite somebody I’ve never met.’
Despite her lousy week, Bethenny shared a celebratory July Fourth post on Instagram on Thursday
Olivia labeled Paul the ‘flavor of the month,’ and assured him, ‘Sorry, it’s not a reflection of you; it’s a reflection of my sister.’
Aurora and Paul sparked romance rumors in June, with a source telling Us Weekly that the influencer and real estate developer ‘have been dating for over two months now. He moved on very quickly after Bethenny.’
‘Her family has met him and thinks he’s a really nice, ‘normal’ guy,’ the insider continued. ‘They have a lot in common with him being from Boston and Aurora from an area nearby. Aurora has been spending time in Boston with him recently.’
Despite her lousy week, Bethenny shared a celebratory July Fourth Instagram post featuring her daughter on Thursday.
