Video: Housewife Bethenny Is "Scary," Snipes Kelly
The claws are coming back out for the Real Housewives of New York City's third season opener.
This time, the Housewives gang up on mom-to-be Bethenny Frankel, and it's not pretty. When we last left the Housewives, Frankel, 39, was BFF with Jill Zarin, but things turned sour after Frankel angrily told her pal she needed to find a new hobby -- and stop meddling in her life.
Watch Bethenny flaunt her pregnancy curves on the NYC Fashion Week runway!
"I found a new hobby and it's not hanging out with [her]," Zarin snipes to Kelly Bensimon in a clip of the show's March 4 premiere. (Watch above)

Bensimon, who locked horns with Frankel last season after she said Bensimon had an "inauthenticity" to her, isn't ready to make nice just yet.

"She's scary," Bensimon seethes. "I would never cross me because she'd attack me or say something bad. I was like, 'that does not a friend make.' It's weird. That's not a friend, that's a foe. She's got issues. I mean, come on, she 'invented the margarita,' Bensimon says, taking a dig at Frankel's investment in the SkinnyGirl margarita franchise.
Check out the full episode of The Real Housewives of New York City March 4 at 10 p.m./ET on Bravo.

32Team Bethanny!! I can't stand Jill this season and she was one of my favorites before! Don't even get me started on the loony Kelly! Get over yourself already!! If you were all that you wouldn't have to embarrass yourself by flirting like a high school teenager with the man that was trying to interview you. That scene made my skin crawl!

Every lady on that show had already make their millions. Bettanny was up and coming. And it's true, they ALL looked at her as the under-dog. I give props to Bethanny for hanging with people who would help her career. As soon as the success turned up for Bethanny, everyone on the show decided to gang up on her. I think there's some jealousy there. She's beautiful and she's sexy and she's smart. She found love, she's having a baby and she has everything going for her. Misery loves company. I think Bethanny should take her new man, her new baby and make a new life away from those jealous old bags.
I love Housewives of NYC, because they are all crazy! Although Bethanny is very funny and has "quirky" snipes. She can sometimes be too snarky,it seems as though she's a jealous of Kelly. When Kelly first came on the scene, Bethanny told Jill how, she KNEW Kelly in the past, and thatKelly flited with her then boyfriend. That incident took place many years ago. However, Bethanny still had anger issues with Kelly. So Bethanny had already had the claws out. It just seems like Bethanny will talk about people, then when she's questioned about the matter, she starts backing in a corner like a scared rabbit. I am happy that she is pregnant and starting a new family life. But she's gotta stop allowing her insecurity issues show.
TEAM JILL!!! "Bethenny" is just a nasty tramp. Sad..She uses people, cries & pulls a DRAMATIC tranny crying fest and then moves on after she gets what she wants. Who's next? The guy she got impregnated from?
I think its strange that this article only mentions Bethenny's age and not Jill's or Kelly's. What's the point?
Team Bethenney ALL THE WAY! Kelly is a whack-job, Jill is a backstabber, Ramona is...crazy eyes crazy. Alex and Simon seem normal compared to those three. I'm sure that Bethenney will be a MUCH better mother than that hooch Kelly. When is she ever at HOME with those girls, anyway?? Who's keeping them while she's out "dating a lot of men" and partying every night? Their dad should sue for custody before they end up just like her.
Blech...Bethenny is is an entitled know it all thinking she's the hottentest punniest this going. She not awful, but puleeze! If anyone looks like a drag queen...if not for the pregnancy (which I hope the best for ) it's totally disgusting. I actually prefer OC to all the rest. That was the intent---showing the arrogance, vanity, bubble world...the expansion of the franchise into super sales people pushing product and in-sighting fights is annoying. I refuse to watch NJ, Atlanta is a showcase for products and fighting, sad to say there are more people into the OC in everyday life. They're all mildly disgusting and spoiled and have never gone without a meal (or a massage & facial) but we want to see them have setbacks, fear, foreclosure, etc. because that is what we are all dealing with, directly or not. RHONY is beyond boring. Jill is interesting and likable, but they're all know it alls. Kelly gets grief---she's very successful and the show is not her life. Alexis in OC has probable not had one decent thing said about her, but if it works for them, then why bash? She is still beautiful before and after the surgeries...why is she singled out? Her husband didn't sign up or Playgirl so the mean comments are just that...mean. The fact I feel like singing "Sweet Emotion" every time I see Lynne is another problem. It's all in the editing. I think we've been so fed marriages on TV we actually think we have insight and the right to judge. It's entertaining, but when it gets this vicious that viewers are actually HATING people that have money and nannies, Christians, or WHATEVER it's becoming way to volatile. No one knows the truth behind the doors when the cameras are off---at least with OC. The rest are far beyond self righteous and obnoxious. XOXO to Andy! Joani
team bethenny!
Awwwww, so disappointed in Jill. Friends don't backstab their friends. Mean girl behavior. Rise above, Jill; rise above. And Kelly? Written her off, beyond weird. I'm not sure I want to watch this season either. I so enjoyed the NYC friendships... not mean girl OC.
ps . my heart goes out to the Countess. But hope this gives you some real compassion for others who have gone through the same. The lesson was HUMILITY
Team Bethany...disappointed in Jill....ahhh kelly, don't even get you...
Come on Kelly you are "scared" of Bethanny??? We are the ones who are scared of you. At least Bethanny has a woman's body. Bu the way, ask Ramona for her skin care maybe it will work for your face.
JILL GROW UP,NOW YOUR RUNNING YOUR BEST FRIEND DOWN? I DON'T KNOW IF I EVAN WANT TO WATCH THIS SEASON WITH ALL YOU ,I CAN'T STAND THAT KELLY,SHE MAKES MY SKIN CRAWL!
Kelly is the "crazy as crackers" one, not Bethenny. Kelly is a washed up, spaced out, delusional model way past her prime. Get over yourself, Kelly. Go home and try to be a good mother to those daughters for a change. I'm no longer a fan of Jill, either. Shes's a turncoat, and seems to easily fall for Kelly's bs. I thought she was smarter than that. Go Bethenny!
SAM ANYONE THAT BUYS YOUR CRAP DESERVES TO GET AN STD!!!U R A S K A N K
Anyone who buys Kelly's crap deserves to be lied to.
Kelly is a washed up 'model' and I use that term lightly. she needs to be a mom, not a playboy model. I still have vomit in my mouth from that story/pic.
I love the HW franchise. Especially NY and Atlanta. Having said that, Alex seems the most calm and laid back. Bethenny is certainly a normal well-adjusted person. She's got a great saucy sense of humor that if you don't take yourself serious, you get right away. Jill is sweet, just a follower (it seems). But Kelly! Whooo! She seems almost like an immature child...Very little common sense. I mean, I've never seen a grown woman act so spacy, really. It's unfortunate that they are ganging up on Bethenny...But it will definitely make good TV... You go girls!!!!!!!!
Kelly isn't immature she is real and least she isn't some piece of low level trash that gets herself pregnant for a t.v. show,looks le your that same kind of trash spreading your legs for any thing that comes along you stanky beatch,you're probobly a welfare breeder too!!!
