‘RHONY’ Bethenny Frankel Spreading ‘Filthy Sex Lies’? Luann De Lesseps Slut-Shamed Even Further By Skinnygirl Mogul

Bethenny Frankel is taking her feud with Luann de Lesseps to the extreme. The Skinnygirl mogul is reportedly upping her slut-shaming by spreading dirty rumors about her Real Housewives of New York co-star. What is Frankel saying about de Lesseps now?

Page Six reports Frankel is spreading lies about de Lesseps performing a scandalous sexual act on her fiancé, Thomas D’Agostino Jr., in a bathroom stall at the Regency Hotel in New York. Apparently, Frankel’s associates told the outlet that de Lesseps and D’Agostino were in the bathroom for over half an hour, while guests heard “audible moans” and “whispering in French” coming from the stall.

These rumors have not been confirmed, though Frankel is believed to have initiated them.

The two RHONY stars have been at each other’s throats all season long, and their feud only escalated after the season reunion. As fans will recall, Frankel tried to warn de Lessep’s about D’Agostino cheating on her prior to their engagement.

During the reunion, de Lesseps had another emotional letdown after Frankel accused D’Agostino of kissing another mystery girl. De Lesseps hit back by claiming Frankel cheated on her ex-husband by dating Dennis Shields prior to his divorce, an allegation Frankel vehemently denies.

As far as the latest rumor is concerned, de Lesseps revealed that she was attending a funeral in Philly when the bathroom stall scandal reportedly took place.

“Obviously a desperate attempt by the Housewives camp to ruin my reputation and my upcoming marriage,” she shared. “Not going to happen! It’s really sad how desperate these women can be. I think the show should be renamed The Desperate Housewives.”

De Lesseps comments are ironic considering she was accused throughout the last season of being desperate to remain a part of the show.

Bethenny Frankel has yet to comment.

Despite the negative reports surrounding D’Agostino, the Hollywood Gossip is reporting that de Lesseps is still going through with the wedding. In fact, the couple seems more in love than ever, and their wedding is right around the corner.

According to ET Online, de Lesseps believes the timing of her engagement and wedding is one reason why Frankel took issue.

“It makes me sad that she’s so angry with me for no apparent reason, except that, you know, I’m getting married too quick for her taste,” de Lesseps stated. “I don’t understand why she’s been so angry from the very beginning.”

De Lesseps and D’Agostino have worked through their array of problems, though fans still might question her willingness to forgive.

“We love each other,” de Lesseps continued. “I always say if you can’t forgive the people you love, then who can you forgive? I’m not going to let a silly kiss ruin the rest of our lives.”

Meanwhile, de Lesseps and her fellow co-stars are in the middle of contract negotiations for next season.

According to Reality Tea, Frankel was already offered $1.5 million to appear on another season of RHONY, which left the remaining cast members scraping for a salary increase.

Last season featured a similar salary dispute that resulted in a few cast members being demoted to part-time status, including de Lesseps. Fortunately, de Lesseps’ drama with D’Agostino and Frankel bumped her back into the spotlight and might provide her better leverage for a salary increase.

For now, everyone not named Frankel is expected to pull down $400,000 next season. Frankel is leading the pack because of ability to stir up drama and attract viewers every week.

Clearly, the network is banking its future on Frankel, which might end up rubbing the other cast members to wrong way in the coming season. Bravo has yet to comment on the increase in salary.
