Bethenny Frankel Ever After

Bethenny Frankel Ever After, Hear ye, hear ye! The time we’ve all been waiting for has arrived. Bethenny Frankel is about to set sail on the “team building” trip we haven’t been able to forget since October of last year. Rumors that our dear Queen B was telling quite the tall tales about being “Lost at Sea” spread like wildfire and tonight, we get the truth (or at least the truth Bravo wants us to know). B took to her blog to reveal that “this voyage was anything but smooth sailing” — and that’s precisely the type of adventure a reality series pays hopes for.

So, we’re right where we left off: Parking lot drama ensues inside the V.I.P. helicopter cove until Hoppy finally agrees to go on the trip. (Like he really has much of a choice.)

Well, no beating around the boom, it’s time to put the visors on and really get this nightmare started.

“Can’t Get Enough of You” Bethenny

Making friends with the other couple on the “team building” boat. Because setting sail for 10+ hours with their fate in Dr. Armadillo’s hands can lead anyone to an unfriendly place. (B’s apparently not there yet.)

Showing sincere concern for Hoppy when he has signs of seasickness. Plus major points for offering to cook and not complaining about it.

Asking Dr. Armadillo to take a trip down to the below-deck bedroom so that Hoppy doesn’t have to move during a little couple’s therapy.

Remaining completely calm when Dr. A. says the boat’s GPS is broken. A pleasant (and shocking) surprise, for sure.

Continuing to stay calm when Dr. A. reassures that they do, indeed, have life jackets if all fails. (Not cool, Armadillo, not cool). Although it’s not quite clear if B’s just gone off the deep end, she does make a “Are you sh*tting your pants” comment while ferociously patting her face with a napkin. So, while the humor is welcome, her sanity is uncertain at this point.

Cracking jokes when Dr. A. walks in on her in the miniature bathroom. Here’s to securing a free trip, at the very least.

15 hours at sea and everyone is quiet, no yelling at all. Maybe all B needs is a few rocky hours to keep her temper in check. Literally.

Revealing that Hoppy can expect sex when they finally reach their destination. Maybe a little TMI, but it seems like a step in the right direction.

Kissing the dock when reaching shore. Example of when it’s OKAY to be dramatic.

Giving Bryn a big bear hug when finally safe and sound.

Comparing the boat trip from Hell to Mardi Gras. Only B’s Mardi Gras experience would translate to “murder,” as she so delicately puts it.

Looking at the beneficial side of their trip, and the fact that she and Hoppy concentrated on their bigger issues, instead of daily bickering.
