TW: This article will discuss the loss of pregnancy. If you are sensitive to this subject, please be advised.
Former The Real Housewives of New York City star Bethenny Frankel is telling all about her divorce from ex-husband Jason Hoppy. The couple wed in 2010 but by 2012, their marriage was over. Bethenny and Jason share one daughter, Bryn Hoppy.
Bethenny filed for divorce in 2013, but their divorce from hell wasn’t finalized until 2021. Now she is diving into the details about her marriage, and all the red flags that she ignored before their nuptials.
The RHONY alum became pregnant again but suffered a miscarriage. “In a constructive way, I said, ‘I’m kind of relieved … because I don’t think this is a healthy or positive relationship,” Bethenny recalled. Jason allegedly called his wife a “real piece of sh*t.” Yikes!
Bethenny didn’t want to get busy with Jason
In the second episode of her podcast, Just B Divorced, she opened up about her reluctance to have sex with her husband. I’m adding this to the list of things I never, ever wanted to know.
“He used to say to me, ‘You’re like a block of ice,’ because I did not want to be intimate,” Bethenny explained. “I did not want to have sex.” The more I hear about this marriage, the more I wonder how it lasted as long as it did.
“I used to force myself, gag myself through doing it … it is torture,” she stated. Again, TMI. But Bethenny was clear about her feelings about her beloved daughter, Bryn.
“I will never regret my daughter for one minute but I felt like I was bullied and waterboarded and flogged and on a road I could not get off of,” Bethenny explained. While they were dating, Jason made it known that he wanted a child, and soon.
I’m not sure why Bethenny decided to open the vault about her marriage, but some things could be left unsaid. Just saying.
