It’s been just over a year since the “reality reckoning” of 2023. But it’s not surprising that Andy Cohen is not keen on seeing Bethenny Frankel again. And he’s not shying away from at least hinting at that too.
After all, he admitted to the whole thing taking a toll on him and it’s not hard to see why. After months of continued lawsuits and hot takes, it’s not hard to see why Andy would want to avoid the person who essentially “fired the first shot.” At least in his eyes.
Andy Cohen drops a hint about Bethenny Frankel
In a recent episode of Watch What Happens Live, Andy and guests Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers played Truth or Kink. The first question out of the gate was when was Matt frustrated with how Andy handled a housewife at a reunion.
Matt answered quickly. He avoided the zap by saying, “I’m sorry, but I was always very Team Carole. I always thought you went way too easy on Bethenny in that situation.”
Andy couldn’t help but agree and said, “Yeah, in retrospect.”
That certainly set the tone. And when the next question was for Andy. It asked him to name one Real Housewife he never wanted to see or hear from again.
The question made Matt laugh. He cheekily asked, “Did you just say it?” To which Andy replied mysteriously, “Uh, yeah, maybe.”
Although the Bravo producer and host knew there was really nothing mysterious. He quickly admitted, “I think the answer is obvious.” And really, is it any wonder considering what a contentious year it has been for the two of them?
A sustained attack
Andy and Bethenny had a famous falling out when the latter famously accused the former of a myriad of things. Her grievances included being underpaid and the stars not being given their due. She wanted reality TV personalities to unionize and opened the floodgates for lawsuits, criticism, and allegations to be lobbed at the network and Andy.
Today the dust has settled on what Andy referred to as a “sustained attack” instead of a reckoning. And while they both may want the feud to die (or at least pause) that doesn’t mean he wants to ever see or hear from Bethenny again.
