Video: Jill Zarin to Bethenny Frankel: "What the Hell Happened to Us?"
On Thursday's finale of The Real Housewives of New York, Jill Zarin decides to phone Bethenny Frankel because, she says, their fight has become "totally beserk."
"What the hell happened to us?" she asks her pal over lunch (see video, above). "I feel like we were married and then we separated, and I don't want to be separated."

As her eyes fill with tears, Frankel, 39, tells her: "Well, divorce can be ugly."
Zarin, 46, apologizes, adding that she feels "really bad" for refusing to reconcile with Frankel, whom publicly shunned after Frankel famously told her to get "a hobby."

Frankel tells her that a lot of monumental events occurred in her life - she got engaged, pregnant, lost her father -- and it hurt that Zarin, her pal of two years, wasn't there. She tells Zarin that she's been "disloyal" and that she's been "killed by this."
"I don't know how to build a relationship in the future because I am so damaged by this relationship," she says. "It's like a divorce."

74Jill, just stay away from Bethenny! She's a witch who uses people, and she used you. I just love how Bethenny acts like she had no part in the disintegration of their friendship. Yeah, right.
Money can't buy Jill class.
Oh , jill your time is up ,we all know what and why (starts with jealousy and ends with jealousy) spend bawwwby $$ ,tons of it , you will go through 3/4 of it before you buy one descent sympathy from American public. Spend away girl all in the name of jealousy....
LOVE Bethenney, Alex, Romona and Sonja. If Luann didn't always act so smug, I'd like her better. Can't stand Jill and Kelly. Like all the men on the show, feel so sorry for Jill's husband, he seems like such a nice guy.
Please Bravo, get rid of this greedy, nasty woman. Jill Zarin is exactly what a grown woman should not be, mean, nasty, selfish, controlling and a whiner. You could easily find someone to replace her. Get rid of Kelly too before she loses it completely and hurts someone. Why do you let crazies like Kelly and Danielle be on your shows? Both have been in trouble with the law. Danielle is just a female thug. This is not what we want to watch.
What happened, Jill, was that you were born a jealous, greedy and manipulative human being.
Jill is a "friend" to no one. She needs people around her so she can flaunt her husband's wealth. She is one sorry excuse for a "friend" - who needs that?
Good BYE GOOD DIDENS!!! Bethenny, Jill is no good for you and she was never a real friend. SHe is jealous and I LOVE that YOU ALL CALLED HER OUT ON IT!! LOL!! Great TV!!
Bethenney, stay away from her. She's the toxic one here, not you. You and Alex are much better off without her.
I have heard Jill have hired people to the max to go into blogs and articles to bash Bethenny and Alex and protect herself after the reunion show. I can pretty much tell when Jill's grabby little fingers are all over the comments. Her remarks onlne are even more vulgar than her words on tv because she doens't think viewers will know it's her/her assistants/family, but it all shows. Jill Karma is a biatch and if you keep this up, you get what you got 10 folds next time. And sassy, Ofcourse you don't care, You just want to make a point for Jill because you are on Jill's payroll.
While I do believe that these "reality" shows contribute greatly to the dumbing down of America, I will say that on a scale of relatively nuts to completely insane, Jill seems like an authentic and decent person. That Bethany is someone's mother now is simultaneously horrifying and sad. Bethany's ability to create drama and heartache for those around - while remaining focused on herself at all times is just shameful.
Bethennny you are a hypocrite of the worst kind, and a snake! Why did she even need to bring Jill's Daughter and husband into the argument? I think Bravo set this up to make Bethenny look like a victim so her show would get more ratings. People couldn't stand Bethenny before. I knew Bravo was up to something when I Seinfeld was shown a clip on what what happens. He said the clip was misleading when Jill put B on speaker phone. He said she contractually HAS to put her on speakerphone. Andy Cohen said it was true. Alex how are you " trying to make it in this economy" and you have an Au Pair? Put your kids in daycare.
Jill is what happened to that friendship! Jill was selfish and tried to play the other girls off each other. She and psycho druggie Kelly can have their own show!
Hey Jill, watch the show and you will find out what happened between you and B
Have you see THE COUNTESS???? NO????? Oh your really MUST or LuAnn would be appalled. Money can't buy you class but it can buy you a neckload of jewelry... and that's money that we the REAL HOUSEWIVES OF MAIN ST do not have.....well now you and I CAN have those gorgeous big bold pieces like The Countess and the other Housewives wear.... Take a look...nothing over $33 for necklace and matching earrings, just google Naturally Stoned Designs and see for yourself. This isn't your grammas jewelry!!
Poor Jill....good luck at trying to steal as much celebrity as you can from Bethenny before she goes. The only way you'll get on her new show is if the ratings tank and you are lucky enough to be one of the conflicts used to boost them. Sonja has completely eclipsed you as the heart of the group. She is much better at it and she isn't dragging around a boring and unattractive family where ever she goes. Where is your career advise coming from? Probably your Mother.
I really donâ??t care if itâ??s cancer of the toenail. The word cancer and cancer treatments spark alot of anxiety and fear into people. Beathny happens to be my favourite one, but on that she didnâ??t get it or understand. Jill was so upset because needing someone for support is seen by some as weakness she needed beathany and beathany snubbed her. Sheâ??s not going to tell them all the real reason behind it as she doesnâ??t like to seem weak or needy. People do things to take their mind off of illness minor or major and keep face and honestly if jill was so bad to beathny why did she try to make up with her several times? Donâ??t believe everything you read see tweeted or on the show its not all 100% real but like I said its clear for anyone with half a brain to see why jill was really so upset over bobby being ill and beathany only sending flowers and not bothering the rest of the summer. If my husband was sick and in hospital having a op which can lead to many complication on its own and my best friend only sent flowers and never come by or called me and came to see me I would be just as upset.
@sassy, You got it all wrong. Jill's husband had thyroid cancer. They include it as cancer for the lack of other words to describe it but it in no way is life threatening. I know, 2 of my family members had it. The doctor said my brother could have surgery now or 10 years later! They all have small scars under their necks and 100% cured. In fact possibility of this being cured is nearly 100%. Jill went out to party every day all the while when Bobby was sick - there are picture trails published on magazines to prove that. That says it all. She only tried to use that information to spite Bethenny for getting a show of her own. She was harrassing bravo why they were not giving her the same treatment. She lied, manipulated, plotted to make Bethenny look bad and it all back fired on her. Karma hurts. but that's what all this is. She also has a jewish grudge, eye for a eye mentality, that completely back fires on her. But most people believe in forgiveness, and letting things go. That's why Jill's revengeful personality doesn't resonate with us. I love, despite all their flaws, Ramona and Bethenny, as they might say stupid and spiteful things to be truthful to the moment, be it right or wrong, but they reflect and sometimes regret, hold no grudges against others, or plot for other's demise.
I hope they make up and get back to their friendship!
they all need help
