The TV personality, 53 – who recently reunited with her former Real Housewives Of New York City co-star Jill Zarin – struck a few poses as she soaked up the warm sun during a getaway to the Hamptons.
In a few images, the star showed off her toned figure wearing a blue, halter-styled bikini top as well as matching bottoms.
Her dark locks naturally flowed down past her shoulders while a lavender-colored hat was placed on top of her head.
Frankel accessorized her look with flashy bracelets on her right wrist as well as a watch on her other. A dainty necklace was also added as well as fashionable, black shades for a final touch.
Bethenny paused for a spontaneous photo session while standing near the edge of a rectangular-shaped swimming pool.
Lounge chairs could be seen surrounding the pool, while the glistening water of the ocean stretched out in the distance.
Her 14-year-old daughter, Bryn, could also be seen joining her mother for the relaxing summer day and cuddled with an adorable pup.
Frankel also took another snap to show the view of the scenic ocean as well as the swimming pool that had a comfy inflatable chair floating on top.
Lastly, the reality star included a photo in the Instagram carousel as she laid a kiss on her daughter’s cheek who flashed a cheerful smile towards the camera.
In the caption of her post, Bethenny penned to her followers, ‘Pool daze with the Peanut,’ referencing to her daughter’s nickname.
The media personality – who currently boasts 3.4 million Instagram fans – shares Bryn with ex-husband, Jason Hoppy.
Frankel – who was slammed for saying the Hamptons are ‘not only for rich people but also minorities’ – and Jason were married from 2010 until she filed for divorce three years later.
After reaching a custody agreement in 2014, they reached a financial settlement two years later. The divorce was officially finalized in 2021.
In 2018, Bethenny began to date real estate developer, Paul Bernon, 45, after meeting on a dating app, and the pair became engaged in 2021.
However in May, it was revealed that the two had separated back in March – but the reality star ‘kept’ the $1 million engagement ring.
A source told Us Weekly that ‘it just wasn’t going to work’ between the pair after being together for six years. ‘They are so different – he’s an under the radar kind of guy.’
Following the separation – which took place in March – Bernon moved on with Olivia Culpo’s sister, Aurora, 35.
Earlier this month, she broke her silence over her ex-fiancé dating a younger woman on her Just B podcast.
‘Last week, I started to see my name in headlines being portrayed as the jilted ex who had been upgraded from, that my ex had moved on from me with a younger woman.’
She continued, ‘It regurgitated the continuous narrative that he is a very under the radar person who had now gotten serious with someone, had a girlfriend, met her family, met her kids.’
‘She had met his kids. He was in a serious relationship. He had bought her presents, and they were a new unit.’
Bethenny told her listeners that she was ‘really happy’ following the split, and said she did not want to be portrayed as ‘some sort of spinster that’s just home crying.’
However, the mother-of-one opened up about trolls accusing her of being jealous of her ex’s new relationship at the time. ‘It was definitely shocking, and it’s embarrassing.’
‘Hearing about your ex-fiancé committing to another woman shortly thereafter on their first date, and then being inside their relationship, hearing about their sex and their gifts and meeting each other’s kids, and the level of commitment was gutting.’
Also during the episode, she said, ‘I’m proud of myself, and I’m proud of the way that I handled it.’
‘I think this woman has learned a lot, too, and I think that everybody lost in this situation because their actions cost them their relationship, which was brand-new, and who knows what would’ve happened?’
Shortly after Bethenny broke her silence, it was revealed that Paul and Aurora had split after only a few months of dating.
The star has been keeping busy during the summer season and following her split from Bernon.
While spending time in the Hamptons, Bethenny had the chance to reunite with her former RHONY castmate, Jill Zarin.
The two had a special reunion as they grabbed dinner – with their daughters also joining in for the fun.
She uploaded memorable snaps from the evening as Frankel posed with Bryn, Jill and her daughter Ally Shapiro, 31.
‘Cheers to the next generation…,’ she typed out in the caption, followed by the hashtags: ”#motherdaughter, #daughterlove, #mommyandme, #hamptons, #weekend, #girlsrule #rhony.’
Bethenny also revealed that she aborted a date not long after flaunting her outfit for fans that she had planned to wear on Monday.
However, after showing off the stylish look, she updated her followers that she was ‘Not going on the date’ and would ‘explain later, bye!’
Earlier on Tuesday, Frankel explained that she made the decision to abort the date with a finance guy ‘because he’s not my physical type’ upon seeing him from a distance with a friend that he was grabbing drinks with before.
She also discovered that he was staying with the friend in the Hamptons, but did not own a home there, although she initially had been led to believe so.
However, throughout the night, the finance guy and his pal kept hopping around to different towns to find a ‘place more cool.’
‘It seems like your friend and you are looking for a lot more in your life than a restaurant,’ she said. ‘It seems like you’re searching for something… block, peace out, abort, not wasting an outfit.’
