Bethenny Frankel, 54, sports pink swimsuit in Miami Beach with daughter Bryn Hoppy
Bethenny Frankel enjoyed a refreshing dip in the ocean alongside her daughter Bryn Hoppy on Monday following their big move to Miami Beach, FL.
The 54-year-old RHONY alum wore a pink one-piece swimsuit while the 15-year-old volleyball athlete opted for a red string bikini.
Bethenny does not work out or lift weights, but she insists she maintains her slim 5ft5in figure by simply 'walking on the beach.'
'I do have toned arms. I don't look, like, ripped,' Frankel - who boasts 9.5M social media followers - admitted on TikTok last August.
'Because I don't work out or do weights and I don't want judgment right now! But I know as you get older, you gotta build muscle mass and do weights - I don't want that.'
Later on Monday, the Just B podcaster revealed via Instastory that she had stubbed her right toe after a trip to the beach, writing: 'Every day.'
Bethenny then claimed a container of Luigi's Real Italian Ice was 'a healing device' and 'a great ice pack' for her bleeding, swollen toe.
'I need to be medicated. My toe is throbbing like a cartoon character,' Frankel said between bites of the frozen treat.
'But my hair is giving mental institution, and I'm ready. Just bring me muffins!'
The native New Yorker has primary custody of Bryn from her three-year marriage to pharmaceutical sales executive Jason Hoppy, which ended in 2021 after a nine-year legal separation.
Bethenny - who admitted she's been lonely for the past five years - said they moved to the Sunshine State because her closest friends live there and they have relatives and a bigger community there than they do in the Big Apple.
'Bryn was like, "I really want this,"' Frankel explained on TikTok May 12.
'The moment it became about her, I was able to be honest with myself about how I felt and it freed both of us.'
The BStrong founder will still hold on to her $5.5M five-bedroom property in Southampton and her two-bedroom pied-à-terre on the Upper West Side.

But on April 22, Page Six reported that Bethenny put her renovated, 1743-era Greenwich, CT house for sale off-market for $8M.
Frankel boasts a reported $80M fortune after selling her Skinnygirl empire to Beam Suntory for $100M in 2011, and she still receives payouts and a small percentage of sales from her former booze brand - according to Forbes.
The Martha Stewart protégée first found fame as a runner-up on NBC's The Apprentice in 2005 before starring in Bravo's The Real Housewives of New York City for eight on/off seasons spanning 2008-2019.

Rob Gronkowski's Sports Illustrated model girlfriend Camille Kostek reveals nasty side of being a NFL WAG
Rob Gronkowski 's model partner Camille Kostek has revealed the negative side of being an NFL girlfriend. The Sports Illustrated swimsuit model, 33, has known the former Patriots star since 2013, with the tight end retiring (for a second time) three years ago. But Kostek recently revealed that she was judged by the wives of other NFL players for not being married to Gronkowski. 'I felt like I was seen as a lesser-than girlfriend because I didn't have a ring on my finger,' she said on Kristin Cavallari's 'Honestly Cavallari: The Headline Tour,' per US Weekly. 'But you want to know what's so interesting about that? The woman that's coming to mind [who] judged me the most, she's divorced.' Kostek and Gronkowski, who met each other when she was a cheerleader for the Patriots, did break up in 2017 before eventually getting back together. However, Kostek explained that she used her time apart from the future Hall of Famer to pursue her passions - namely becoming a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model. 'In that year, I decided to audition for Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, which was on my bucket list. I cared about pursuing the things that brought me joy,' she said. 'There were so many things I was destined to want to do, and then I happened to date an athlete, and it was like, 'You are a WAG.' Kostek first modeled for SI Swimsuit in 2018, covered the magazine the following year and has been photographed for the brand every year since her debut. She was even named a 'Legend' of the brand last year. Last month, she walked the runway for SI Swimsuit in a show that included Livvy Dunne, soccer player Midge Purce and more. While Gronkowski and Kostek do not have a child together, they do share a dog named Ralphie, who the four-time Super Bowl champion mentioned when he wished his girlfriend a happy birthday back in February. 'Happy Birthday to my Dancing Queen @camillekostek !! From your incredible kindness to your infectious energy, you light up every room you walk into babe!!,' he wrote on Instagram. 'You deserve the best, not just today but always. Love you to the moon and back! And the best Momma anyone could ask for to our loving boy @ralphiegronkowski !!' Gronkowski, 36, established himself as one of the best tight ends in NFL history over an 11-year career. The University of Arizona became a favorite target of Tom Brady during their time together in New England, catching 17 touchdown passes in 2011 and winning three Super Bowls under then-Patriots coach Bill Belichick.

The View co-host Sunny Hostin shares chilling story about how she 'almost DIED' on set
Sunny Hostin revealed she 'almost died' after suffering a medical emergency during an episode of The View this week. The TV personality, 56 — who recently left her fellow co-hosts speechless over comments on the Iran–Israel conflict — opened up about the harrowing incident on the ABC talk show on Friday. Hostin found herself in danger on Wednesday, when guest Debbie Matenopoulos made an appearance to promote her new cookbook titled and also brought along a few meals for the hosts to taste. At one point, Matenopoulos — who previously was a host on The View in the late '90s — described the items she brought, such as an orzo dish. However, Hostin soon found out that she was deathly allergic to one of the ingredients. 'She has this wonderful food, Greek food. And I have a terrible allergy to walnuts. And as I'm eating the food, Alyssa [Griffin] asks, "Are those walnuts in here?" And she says, "Yes."' Sunny shared that she began 'to panic immediately' and penned a 'death note' to Griffin who was sitting directly next to her at the time. While telling the story on Friday, Hostin then held up a blue card which had the words, 'I am allergic to walnuts,' scribbled on the back. Sunny continued, 'And she responds with, "Oh no!" And I'm looking at [executive producer] Brian [Teta] and he's like, "Is everything okay?"' The star had simply responded, 'No, it's not,' by silently shaking her head in his direction. Hostin was able to make it to the end of the segment before receiving medical aid from doctors on the set. 'But what was great was our Disney nurses, man, they are like superheroes. They came in — nurse Jen came in — with an EpiPen. She was testing me. I had Benadryl. I was scared.' Griffin chimed in to explain that she couldn't read the note that Sunny had quickly written down, but added, 'We're glad you made it through.' The TV personality went on to explain that she hadn't had an allergic reaction to that extent in a decade. Hostin has been a co-host on The View since 2016, and currently works alongside Alyssa Farah Griffin, Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sara Haines and Ana Navarro. Hostin said, 'She has this wonderful food, Greek food. And I have a terrible allergy to walnuts. And as I'm eating the food, Alyssa [Griffin] asks, "Are those walnuts in here?" And she says, "Yes"' Despite her allergy to walnuts, Sunny has talked about some of her favorite snacks during an interview with Us Weekly last year. 'My co-hosts on The View make fun of me, but I eat Funyuns,' the star said, referencing to the onion-flavored chips. 'I think it's kind of a strange thing, but I eat Funyuns. It's not great for the breath, so I have mints.' However, Hostin has a special twist when it comes to munching on the snack and will dip the chips in hot sauce. 'Ana Navarro's right next door and she just looks in at me and she's just like, "Are you eating that again?" I am,' Sunny humorously added. And a few months earlier in March, Hostin got candid about her weight loss journey and discussed using Mounjaro - an injectable medication for adults with type 2 diabetes. She had turned to the drug due to feeling 'shame' for gaining 40 pounds during the COVID-19 pandemic. Sunny told 'All I did was eat... I love to cook, and I found out, I love to eat. And I was horrified about the fact that I would have to come out on air. So I also took Mounjaro.' And a few months earlier in March, Hostin got candid about her weight loss journey and discussed using Mounjaro - an injectable medication for adults with type 2 diabetes; seen earlier this month in NYC When she stopped taking Mounjaro, Hostin talked about the 'different experience' that she had. 'I feel really great. I don't know what everyone else's experience with it is, but I never gained any weight back.' The media personality further added, 'So, that was kind of weird. Hopefully, nothing bad will happen to me.' The mom-of-two added that her body feels the same following her time taking the medication. 'I was never a big eater, so I just sort of eat to live. I don't live to eat,' Sunny explained, and emphasize she also 'never stopped working out.' The author - who took Mounjaro over the span of four months - added, 'Yeah, I'm just living life and feeling pretty good.' When the talk show host was asked if she would go back on the medication, she replied with, 'If I needed to, sure. Why not?' Back in 2024 during an episode of The View, Hostin first revealed that she had taken Mounjaro. 'During Covid I gained 40 pounds. All I did was eat. I love to cook and I found out I love to eat. And I was horrified by the fact that I would have to come out on air. So I took Mounjaro.' She had also shared some of the negative reaction she received in regards to her weight loss.

How to treat your floors to prevent slipping
I have an industrial steel and concrete staircase in my house and I am replacing it with one made from tulipwood. It needs to be completely non-slip as I am a 73-year-old widow living alone and cannot risk falling on it. The staircase comes with a minimum finish, but the rest is up to me. I don't want to paint the staircase because I'd like the colour and grain of the wood to show. I have tried to find a seriously non-slip varnish but they do not seem to exist. The option I've been given is to use a clear varnish (I've bought Blackfriar Quick Drying Floor Varnish) and then spray it with a non-slip finish such as Rust-Oleum SuperGrip. Is there one product that would do the whole job? I have a limited budget and I don't want to pay twice for the two finishes if I don't need to. Many thanks for your French Your new tulipwood staircase sounds great, and I completely understand your concern. The good news is that there are products designed exactly for your situation. One we often recommend is Osmo Polyx-Oil Anti-Slip, which is a clear hardwax oil that protects the wood while allowing the natural grain and tone to shine through. It comes in two grades of slip resistance and is used widely on interior wooden stairs and floors. It's easy to apply, long-lasting and doesn't require a second product, so it should suit your budget better than the two-step option you mention. If you're looking for something even grippier, there's an industrial-grade product called Tuff Grip. However, it has a more textured finish and may obscure some of the wood's natural beauty, so it's a bit of a trade-off. I hope this helps, and I'd love to hear how the staircase turns out. • Read more expert advice on property, interiors and home improvement We have had the idea of covering our patio and part of the adjoining wall with blue and white tiles to give a bit of a Spanish feel. We're worried about slipping. What type of tile would be recommended?George Luke This sounds like a great plan. Look for textured porcelain tiles with an anti-slip rating of R11 or higher. Porcelain is tough, weather-resistant and ideal for outdoor use; ceramic tiles, while more affordable, are generally better suited to walls or sheltered areas because they're less durable in frost and heavy rain. Many tile suppliers sell decorative porcelain ranges inspired by Spanish or Mediterranean patterns, often with non-slip finishes. Natural stone can be a lovely option, but it's rare to find it in those vivid colours. A word of warning on installation: patios need proper sub-base preparation, a fall for drainage (to keep water away from the house) and a frost-proof adhesive. Getting this wrong leads to cracked or loose tiles, which can be costly to fix. It's well worth getting a professional to do the groundwork.
