Bethenny Frankel Is Confronted By Drama With Dorinda Medley’s Boyfriend On ‘RHONY’ Season 8
Bethenny Frankel will once again come face to face with Dorinda Medley’s boyfriend, John Mahdessian, on tonight’s new episode of The Real Housewives of New York City Season 8.
Following a dramatic encounter last week, Medley and Mahdessian arrive at the Hamptons home of Bethenny Frankel in hopes of smoothing things over. However, rather than confront the situation with Mahdessian head on, Bethenny Frankel chose to ignore him entirely.
“I don’t think [Bethenny Frankel] has any intention of being open to John today. She greeted everyone else except John,” Medley told cameras during a sneak peek at the April 27 episode, as seen below.
“Did you see Dorinda’s boyfriend? He looked like a deer in the headlights. It was like there was an obstruction in my house. I had to walk around it,” Bethenny Frankel told her friends.
Meanwhile, Medley claimed her co-star was getting enjoyment out of making her boyfriend uncomfortable at her party.
“I think it’s an opportunity for her to watch him squirm. On some level she enjoys that,” Medley alleged.
Continuing on to her friends, Bethenny Frankel admitted, “I feel uncomfortable at my own party because I have somebody that I’m avoiding at my house.”
She then told cameras, “I really get the sense that John and Dorinda don’t remember what happened because if they remembered, I don’t think that Dorinda would have John come over.”
Three days prior, after Bethenny Frankel suggested Medley and her boyfriend were dealing with issues in their relationship, Mahdessian accused her of being jealous and claimed she didn’t know what love was because she couldn’t hold a relationship.

In other Bethenny Frankel news, the reality star and business mogul will soon return to hosting with a new radio show on SiriusXM. Years after her FOX talk show, Bethenny, came to an end, Entertainment Weekly confirmed her new gig, revealing her first show would air on May 2. According to the report, Bethenny Frankel’s program, B Real With Bethenny, will air on Andy Cohen’s SiriusXM channel, Radio Andy, which launched last fall.
“[Bethenny Frankel] is a self-described unfiltered know-it-all, which makes her a perfect fit for Radio Andy,” Cohen said in the release.
“It’s really a no-holds-barred environment,” added Bethenny Frankel, revealing she felt limited by her FOX series. “I couldn’t just go rogue on my talk show. It’s just going rogue, is what [the radio show] is, and I love that. It’s a zero-f***s nation.”
On the series, which Bethenny Frankel described as “an irreverent, inappropriate Seinfeld,” she will be talking about everything from sex to dating to business.
“Honestly, anything. The nothingness of it all,” she explained.
