AceShowbiz - Luann de Lesseps and Bethenny Frankel's feud is back on just days after they seemingly ended their long-standing beef at a Hamptons party. Despite their friendly run-in, Frankel failed to unblock Luann from her socials. This realization has led de Lesseps to believe that the reunion was not genuine.
"After watching Bethenny's video and still being blocked by her on social media, I realize she just used her daughter to get to me," de Lesseps told Us Weekly. "It wasn't a genuine reconnection."
De Lesseps explained that she was initially "really happy" to see Frankel but realized she may have been used by Frankel for attention. "To watch the video, it hurt my feelings," she added.
In response, a source close to Frankel exclusively told Page Six, "Bethenny just wishes Luann was drinking a Mingle Mocktail and wearing Chanel. ... She wishes Luann the best summer and says she looks 'Forever Young,' " referencing her wine brand.
Frankel admitted that she recreated de Lesseps' moment with her daughter for the sake of social media. "We had to do it on social media because if it didn't happen there, then it didn't happen anywhere," she defended her action on her podcast. However, she maintained that it was a "pleasant and fun" encounter.
