Bethenny Frankel reacted unfavorably to her ex-fiancé’s new relationship, as short-lived as it was. She made public statements about it being “gutting” that Aurora Culpo shared details about her relationship with Paul Bernon. They dated for two months before they broke up. And the former Real Housewives of New York star lept at the opportunity to speak about it.
Now, the woman who Paul moved on with after splitting up with Bethenny in May is speaking in retaliation. But it seems that Bethenny’s suggestion that Aurora speak about him publicly was indeed the deal-breaker for him.
Aurora suggested her breakup was not Bethenny’s “story to tell”
Aurora called Bethenny “petty” for sharing the news of her split from Paul. The influencer made the statement on Wednesday’s episode of her podcast Barely Filtered.
“PSA guys: It’s not a good look to announce the breakup of your ex-boyfriend with his new girlfriend,” Aurora stated. “It looks petty, it looks bitter, and it’s not your story to tell, but she did.”
Aurora had spoken about Paul on her podcast, despite him wanting to be “anonymous.”
“You gotta let me know that you don’t want to be spoken about at all,” she explained. “Otherwise, I can’t really help it if you don’t remain anonymous anymore, and I can’t really take responsibility for the way people in your past might feel about the way I talk about my anonymous boyfriend on my podcast.”
The podcast host stressed that she still thinks highly of Paul, even after their split. The duo had
“He’s such a nice guy, he’s sweet. He’s generous, he’s a great dad, super funny,” she revealed, “and I still feel all these same ways about him.”
Aurora continued, “Just because we can’t be together doesn’t mean that I’m mad at him or doesn’t mean that I don’t still think he’s an amazing person. He is.”
Perhaps their breakup would have been inevitable. Aurora admitted that Paul not wanting more children was a deal-breaker for her. She started, “Having feelings like this relationship probably isn’t for her.”
“I didn’t really want that door to be closed for me,” Aurora concluded.
