On November 10, Bethenny Frankel dropped the first episode of her “Real Housewives” rewatch podcast, “ReWives,” where she unveiled how she allegedly rescued castmates Alex McCord and Sonja Morgan from getting fired. In the case of McCord, Frankel revealed the circumstances behind the Season 3 scene when she asked the blonde actor to deliver a friendship-ending message to fellow Housewife Jill Zarin. “[McCord] was going to be fired … like I knew the producers, someone had told me, and I said to her to tell that message to Jill, because I knew it would be a big moment for her.” Well, McCord would be ousted by Bravo after Season 4, so she may have lasted one more season due to Frankel’s meddling.
Then, Frankel recalled when a producer told her that Morgan was going to be cut from the show during Season 10. In order to save her friend, she says she “[lit] a match” under Morgan to provoke a fight between her and another Housewife. “I said to the producer in the car ‘Give me one night,’ and that was the night Sonja resurrected herself. That did happen … it’s totally true,” she insisted.
Although the Skinny Girl businesswoman is sharing her alleged altruistic deeds on her podcast, longtime cast member Luann de Lesseps called Frankel’s new show “pathetic … because of all of her failed pivots since the ‘Housewives,'” (via E! News).
