Bethenny Frankel takes a dip in plunging ruffled swimsuit in St. Barts
New York City may be Bethenny Frankel’s playground, but St. Barts is her swimming hole.
The former “Real Housewives of New York” star hit the beach during her Caribbean vacation Tuesday, making a splash in a ruffled one-piece swimsuit.
The frilly mustard-colored maillot featured a low-cut back and a deeply plunging neckline, and Frankel, 52, accessorized with a broad-brimmed straw hat, oversized sunglasses and a floral cover-up.
Frankel was also spotted fanning herself, toting an iridescent bag and typing on her phone.
As for jewelry, the reality star-turned-podcaster paired her million-dollar engagement ring with yet another blinged-out watch, a combination she appears to favor for beach days.
The Skinnygirl founder is currently on vacation with 12-year-old daughter Bryn Hoppy, whom she shares with ex-husband Jason Hoppy.
Bryn sported a colorful bikini on the shore, sharing that she was swimming with turtles on Frankel’s Instagram Story.
The tropical vacation comes after Frankel, 52, revealed that she has “experienced some health issues” lately and that she’s had cosmetic surgery — but declined to elaborate on specific conditions and procedures, following the advice of a friend “in the industry.”
“I don’t owe anyone a detailed explanation of everything I eat, how much I have sex, how much money I have or everything I do,” Frankel said.
“The most important thing (is), I think I look great, my daughter thinks I look great, my fiancé [Paul Bernon] thinks I look great so I don’t give a good f–k what you think,” the heated Bravolebrity added.
Addressing the “trolls” who’ve been commenting on her appearance for weeks, Frankel added that she doesn’t “give a s—t” about their opinions.
“I’m doing it my way. You want to f–king unfollow me because I don’t give you a pap smear and put my feet up in stirrups and show you every inch of me? Then f–k off,” she concluded.
