Bethenny Frankel Injures Face with Odd Beauty Tool

She added: ‘He found a liver nodule on me and my sonogram so it's important to get these tests and stay with this stuff because you could find other things.’

Frankel first disclosed her kidney diagnosis back in January, explaining doctors believed it may be linked to a traumatic allergic reaction she once suffered.

‘And he said it could be a function of this traumatic experience I had years ago when I almost died from an allergy attack. It could have done damage to the kidney,’ she said, noting another possible cause could be an autoimmune disorder and adding that the condition may be tied to urinary issues.

The media personality also admitted she doesn’t drink enough water - something her doctor quickly addressed, telling her that ‘water is your medicine.’

Meanwhile, the outspoken entrepreneur recently sparked online debate after sharing - and then deleting - a video weighing in on Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime Show performance.

In the clip, she warned fans she might ‘get cancelled for this’ before asking whether major entertainment platforms should be used to deliver political or cultural messages.

‘Should these entertainment vehicles - the Grammys, the Emmys, the Oscars, the Super Bowl - should this be the place for personal, cultural, political views to be expressed?’ Frankel asked.

She acknowledged there are moments when global events inevitably become part of the conversation - citing ‘COVID or tragedies, 9/11,’ - but repeatedly questioned: ‘Where is the line?’

Frankel also compared the debate to past controversies involving stars such as Dave Chappelle and Billie Eilish, while arguing that daytime hosts like Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos are largely expected to steer clear of political commentary.

‘Where is the line?’ she asked again, adding that their show keeps things strictly entertainment-focused.

Not long after posting the video, Frankel deleted it and returned with a second Instagram Reel offering a more supportive perspective on the performance.

‘So my take on Bad Bunny and his performance at the Super Bowl is that he is an artist expressing himself, his music and his experience as a Puerto Rican man in America,’ the Skinnygirl founder said.

She continued: ‘Bad Bunny is a Puerto Rican man in America on the largest stage in the world - which is very inspirational to people because that is him expressing his experience in his first language.’

Frankel wrapped up her revised take by invoking pop icon Madonna, adding: ‘Madonna said it best: Express yourself.’

Some fans speculated the quick deletion may have been prompted by backlash aimed at her former RHONY co-star Jill Zarin, who faced criticism over her own now-deleted rant about Bad Bunny’s halftime show.
