Bethenny Frankel Mourns the Loss of Her Mother
Reality TV star Bethenny Frankel announced the passing of her mother, Bernadette, in a heartfelt Instagram post. The former ‘Real Housewives of New York’ star shared several sweet photos of her mother, who she revealed had succumbed to lung cancer.
In her emotional post, Frankel did not hold back as she delved into the complexities of her relationship with her mother. She described Bernadette as funny, cultured, and wise, but also acknowledged that she struggled with her role as a mother and did not enjoy the responsibility.
Frankel went on to explain that she only began to repair her relationship with her mother after her daughter, Bryn, expressed a desire to meet her grandmother. Despite their tumultuous past, Frankel expressed gratitude for the opportunity to work on their relationship before Bernadette’s passing.
The reality star ended her post on a positive note, emphasizing the importance of forgiveness and reaching out to estranged family members. She urged her followers to cherish their loved ones and mend broken relationships while they still have the chance.
Frankel’s candid post comes as no surprise to those familiar with her tumultuous relationship with her mother. In a 2010 People cover story, she opened up about the destructive elements of their relationship, including alcohol abuse, eating disorders, and violent confrontations.
Bernadette was reportedly 73 years old at the time of her passing. The news of her death has left Frankel and her family in mourning, with fans offering their condolences and support on social media. May she rest in peace.
