...but we have to hand it to her because she was quite the trooper when we took her picture!

On Friday Bethenny Frankel was snapped in New York City with rollers in her hair, and the Real Housewives starlet tweeted, "I used to detest the process of getting ready, but I now kind of enjoy the escape & nothingness of making yourself pretty for the night." Wonder where she was headed?

In other news, while Bethenny and husband Jason Hoppy announced that they were splitting in early January, Hoppy is still wearing his wedding ring, and a source tells Radar, “Bethenny just can’t understand why Jason is still wearing his wedding ring! It makes absolutely no sense to her because they have zero plans for reconciliation. Bethenny thinks he’s doing it to garner sympathy and to appear as the wounded party. Jason told her he’s still wearing the ring so that their two-year-old daughter, Bryn doesn’t get confused. But that reasoning doesn’t fly with Bethenny because Bryn’s still too young to understand that her parents are getting divorcing, or to even comprehend what that means.”

Of course, the real problem here could be that Jason is jealous of Bethenny's close friendship with billionaire Warren Lichtenstein. The two have reportedly been chummy for two decades, but Jason isn't feeling it. “Jason has told Bethenny he doesn’t want Bryn to be around Warren, but she doesn’t care what he thinks,” the source added. “Warren adores Bryn and Jason can’t tell Bethenny what to do anymore.”

Drama, drama, drama...

On Wednesday we spotted newly single Bethenny Frankel and her adorable daughter Bryn shopping on Robertson Blvd in West Hollywood, and the ladies were joined by a mystery man with a diaper bag.

After indulging in a little retail therapy, the group stopped by the Georgetown Cupcake bakery for some sweets. Looks like everyone is stocking up on them this Valentine's Day!

There's still no update on her divorce proceedings with ex-hubby Jason Hoppy, but things could definitely turn ugly. The reality star/Skinnygirl mogul filed for divorce from Hoppy on January 5 and moved out of their Tribeca pad two weeks later, but less than three weeks after that, Hoppy filed his own papers, asking for primary custody of Bryn, child support and possession of their Tribeca home, which reportedly cost $5 million. Frankel is asking for the same things, so we're hoping for everyone's sake this is resolved quickly and amicably.

It's sad to see this family going their separate ways!

Bethenny Frankel braved the cold N.Y.C. temperatures to walk her daughter Bryn to pre-school this morning, and the SkinnyGirl mogul made sure her little girl was tucked in and cozy with a stuffed animal and a warm blanket. The Bethenny Ever After star looked a little worn out on her stroll, but can you blame her with all the drama going on in her personal life?

Although the self made millionaire filed for primary custody and child support in her divorce from estranged husband Jason Hoppy, her wishes might not be a slam dunk in court! Her pharmaceutical sales rep ex filed papers of his own demanding the same, so it looks like this divorce battle will be a drawn out one!

We caught Bryn's daddy heading to his lawyer's office this morning, and he looked sharp and ready for action!

Rumors swirled this week that the talk show host's latest venture would be penning a single parenting advice book, but she quickly took to her Twitter to slam the reports.

"To clear up 1 of many rumors from bottom feeder journalists: I'm not writing a book about being a single mom. I have no perspective yet," she wrote this morning.

We're still rooting for a reconciliation! They were so cute together in happier times!

Bethenny Frankel filed for divorce from Jason Hoppy last week, but the reality star/Skinnygirl mogul is already opening up (and bawling her eyes out) about their split.

Frankel made her first television appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Wednesday, and she told the talk show host, "Do I want to be doing this exact thing right now? No, but I can't just only be on reality TV and show everything when it's fairy princess, fairy tale and then not take my hits when I have to. I've kind of had the best worst year ever."

Frankel wed Hoppy, a pharmaceutical sales exec, in a televised ceremony in 2010, and she confirmed that they were separating on December 23. Last week she filed for divorce, and she is asking for primary custody of their two-year-old daughter Bryn, as well as child support.

Frankel added in between sobs, "I feel like a bit of a disappointment to all of you. And I feel like a failure." DeGeneres tried to comfort her, but she continued, "I feel like a failure ... I really put it out there. I wanted the fairytale. I thought I had it. And Bryn is my fairy tale ... This is excruciating, I have to say. The truth is, I wanted to rip the Band-Aid off so it could start to heal. This will obviously be better. I'm scared of the unknown future. You know everything, and one day you don't know. So I'm scared. I'm older."

So what's next? "I never thought I'd be a role model, but I think to some people I am, or have been. So this is an important time because it's about what I do next. How I handle myself now with grace, with dignity. This is the time now that matters."

After announcing that they had split last month, reality star and Skinnygirl mogul Bethenny Frankel has filed for divorce from Jason Hoppy.

According to court records, Frankel began the process by filing a summons for divorce in New York City earlier this week.

"This was an extremely difficult decision that as a woman and a mother, I have to accept as the best choice for our family," the former Real Housewives star told Us Weekly when the couple first announced their split.

"We have love and respect for one another and will continue to amicably co-parent our daughter who is and will always remain our first priority," she added, referring to 2-year-old Bryn. "This is an immensely painful and heartbreaking time for us."

After being married for two years, Bethenny Frankel and husband Jason Hoppy are separating.

"This was an extremely difficult decision that as a woman and a mother, I have to accept as the best choice for our family," the 42-year-old Bravo reality star said. "We have love and respect for one another and will continue to amicably co-parent our daughter who is and will always remain our first priority. This is an immensely painful and heartbreaking time for us."

Some sources reported that the two were experiencing strains in their relationship, partly due to their career aspirations.

Frankel and Hoppy met in 2008 and tied the knot two years later, having their 2-year-old daughter Bryn that same year.

Now here's a woman that can do it all!

Bethenny Frankel took her adorable daughter Bryn for ice cream in the Big Apple today, and even though she's one of the hardest working women in show business, she's also living proof that it is possible to juggle a career and motherhood!

Just yesterday, the SkinnyGirl cocktail mogul announced that her talk show Bethenny , which is executive produced by Ellen Degeneres, will launch nationwide next year after a six-week run this past summer. "Hosting a talk show this summer and connecting with women every day made me realize that I have found my true passion. My heartfelt thanks go out to my dedicated fans who tuned in and help make this great opportunity happen," she told reporters.

As if that news wasn't exciting enough, the New York native just signed with CAA agency to represent her and her brand in television, licensing, commercial endorsements, speaking engagements, and philanthropy.

While the rest of the Real Housewives of New York are busy swilling down pinot grigio and acting like they're in high school, this brunette businesswoman is taking over Hollywood!

Bethenney Frankel may have spent the entire day filming her new talk show, but the reality star looked fresh and fabulous in NYC on Thursday afternoon, wearing the same stunning red dress she rocked on the show!

There is just one episode left before the former Real Housewives of New York star says goodbye to her talk show for the summer, after it was given a 6-week trial run on FOX.

Before announcing her show would be on hiatus, Frankel promised on air this week: "I have one little thing that I'm doing in August that I have to do for two hours, but besides that this is the last thing that I'm doing. I'm done. I really need to shut it down for two or three months because I just have never experienced a whirlwind like the last four or five years."
