‘RHONY’ Star Dorinda Medley Stands By Her Man Despite Vulgar Behavior And Fighting With Bethenny Frankel


Dorinda Medley and Bethenny Frankel are at odds again over Medley’s boyfriend, John Mahdessian. In the latest episode of the Real Housewives of New York, emotions ran high as Mahdessian argued with Frankel about her Skinnygirl cocktails. With Medley caught in the middle, will her relationship with Mahdessian last much longer?

According to E! Online, the drama started after Mahdessian accused Frankel of stealing a brand name from a friend of his. Of course, Frankel quipped back in her usual manner and poked fun at Mahdessian by giving him a brand name of his own.

“His brand is called Skinny Cow,” she stated. “You’re a cow, I’m a girl, that’s the difference. Skinny Cow, Skinnygirl.”

From here, the two exchanged words, and Medley attempted to get them to stop arguing. Unfortunately, things only got worse, and Mahdessian quickly started to defend his relationship with Medley.

“We love each other. You don’t know what love is about,” he told Frankel. “Cause you don’t know what love is.”

Following the heated exchange, Medley wanted nothing more than to escape and get away. According to People, Medley left the room in tears, angry at both her co-star and her boyfriend.

“I just want to get out of here and cry basically. And that’s exactly what I’m going to do,” she stated before heading out.

Once Medley was gone, Frankel and newcomer Julianne “Jules” Wainstein talked about what went down. While Wainstein pointed out that Medley is happy with Mahdessian, Frankel shared how she thinks Mahdessian has crossed the line and that Medley is not happy in her relationship.

“He’s f**ked up, and I knew it… And I’ve known it. And everyone knows it. The point is she’s constantly selling and defending, which means she has something to defend.”

However, Medley wasn’t exactly on Frankel’s side. In fact, by the end of the episode, Medley shared her own thoughts on the matter and it does not sound like she’s happy with her co-star.

“Guess what Bethenny Frankel, You’re not the word according to God,” Medley shared during the episode.

Despite Mahdessian’s latest bout with Frankel, Romper is reporting that Dorinda Medley is more than happy in her relationship. Although the two have yet to exchange vows and take their relationship to the next level, they have been dating for quite a while.

“The truth of the matter is, we don’t need to say anything because we’ve been together for four years. Four years!” Medley explained. “As we know from our cast mates, some of their relationships and marriages haven’t lasted for four years… So I think that it’s fair to say the longevity of our relationship speaks for itself.”

As far as Medley is concerned, her relationship with Mahdessian meets her every need. Despite Mahdessian’s constant bickering with her friends and the conflict he creates, Medley has stood firmly by his side and continues to do so.

“It’s a different relationship with John because I’m not particularly looking for a husband. I’m not wanting to have children,” she added. “I feel sort of emotionally secure and financially secure, so I can actually be present and be there because I choose it.”

At this point, it isn’t clear what will happen next between Frankel and Mahdessian. Whatever goes down, their continued feuding is starting to wear on Medley. Whether or not she’ll be able to withstand any more fighting is yet to be seen. Only time will tell if she chooses to remain with Mahdessian or call things off.

Fans can watch the drama unfold between Frankel and Mahdessian when the Real Housewives of New York continues Wednesday nights on Bravo.
