Bethenny Frankel is currently in Miami, where she and her boyfriend, Michael Cerussi, plan to ring in the New Year — just as they did last year.
“She has always been known for having a very lean frame. But on Monday, Skinnygirl founder Bethenny Frankel looked thinner than ever,” the U.K.’s Daily Mail reported on December 30. “While wearing a skimpy white string bikini as she waded in the ocean in Miami, the 44-year-old Real Housewives Of New York star showed off not just a tiny waistline but also her ribs.”
As the Inquisitr reported earlier this year, Bethenny Frankel is filming the seventh season of The Real Housewives of New York City , which she’ll return to next year after a three-season hiatus.
While the show appears to still be filming, no cameras were seen during Frankel’s recent beach outing.
“At times she wore a white straw hat. Brown tinted aviators hid her eyes. And a gold watch with a matching necklace and diamond studs added glamor,” the Mail continued. “She was seen holding a beverage in her hand in a plastic cup, but it may have just been water. Onlookers stared at the reality TV icon as she carried her daughter — who was wearing a blue sunflower dress — with one arm.”
After Frankel’s return to The Real Housewives of New York City was announced, she spoke out, revealing why she decided to return.
“When I left the show and then the talk show was done, I was kind of really burnt out,” Bethenny Frankel explained to Extra TV in October. “I didn’t know if I really wanted to be on television anymore, at least for a while … and I really would like it to be my decision if I stop the train of being in the public eye and being on television. And I think if I didn’t do something else soon, that I really thought was good for me, then it wouldn’t have been my choice any more.”
“It just feels fresh and new, which is kind of representative of where I am in my personal life, which feels fresh and new.”
Prior to her return to the reality series, Frankel appeared in her own Bravo spinoff with Jason Hoppy, Bethenny Ever After , and her own talk show on Fox, Bethenny .
Bethenny Frankel will be seen in the upcoming season of The Real Housewives of New York City in 2015.
