BraVO Bethenny. You are doing all of the right things. Just try not to take on so much at one time. Take time to smell the roses without the cameras and just with your husband and baby. You owe it to your marriage to embrace the time your family will have together. I love your show, but if the show was no longer and you decided to lay low and just be there with your business and the family your fans would understand.

Bethenny is a joy to watch. One comment, Jason, I feel, is still trying to make up for his brother's death by constantly wanting to include his parents in every aspect of his married life. I believe he could profit from some major individual psychotherapy to address this issue. If he gets help in this area, I believe it can only help his relationship with everyone concerned. It takes a strong person to realize that seeking help is not a weakness.
Wishing Bethenney et.al all good wishes.

Bethenny, I look forward to your reality show very much.....You, Jason and Bryn have a very special and unique relationship...Cherish it Always!......Look at your lives together as a journey and treat every place you visit whether it be local or away as though you are a tourist. Be sure and take in not only the sights but the culture as well....My family and I have done this with our son as we moved every two years while my husband was the international sales manager for an engineering company which helped keep me sane....Have fun and take on the tourist roll whenever possible.
Happy Easter to you and your family.
Always,
MaryJo Morse

Hey, Bethenny, no Rod Serling background music needed as you read THIS post...just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy watching your show and drinking your margaritas. I'm an ancient mom, too (had her at 38) and it has been worth every moment. LOVE the 'tude...as Bette Midler used to say, "F--- 'em if they can't take a joke!" Best wishes for happiness and love...you pretty much have the success part sewn up.

Girl - YOU TOTALLY ROCK! Ive loved you since Real Housewives...always were my fav and still are!! I thoroughly enjoy your new show. This season is great so far! I also cant wait for your talk show to start! You crack me up!! You are a true inspiration. I, like you, had a similar upbringing in terms of not having my father in my life as a child. I can relate to you on so many levels. Your strength and openiness encourages me to face some of the same issues you have struggled with. By seeing how you have overcome so many hurdles, it gives me the determination to do the same. Thank you for that and for always keeping me laughing!! LOVE YOU!!

Luv the Hoppy Family! Bethany, you are so blessed with a wonderful husband, a beautiful daughter and now a successful business. Try to take time to stop and smell the roses - we only have one life to live (did I really just say that?) and enjoy every minute of it. Be kind and have patience. Lookin forward to next week!
P.S. So happy your out of that other mess of RHWONY.

You inspire me. Sad to hear that your cirlce of friends is closed. I guess we can just be besties in my head.. LOL! I am shocked that there are negative comments on here. But hey as long as they keep watching the ratings will be good. Also, somebody complaining about Nick being on the show is just crazy!! I love how slowly(very slowly) he is coming out of his shell. You seem to be such a positive influence on him. Well can't wait to watch the rest of the season. P.S. I love the Skinny girl Sangria. I had it and the margarita flavor at a baby shower I hosted this past weekend. Everyone loved it.

Bethenny, I want to thank you for saying "There's no right or wrong - it's what's right for you" in regards to the number of children people should have. I, too, have one child (4.5yr old boy) and I'm 39 yrs old. My husband and I are constantly asked "So when are you going to make Andrew a big brother?" or told "You can't just have one kid." Who made that rule anyway?? Like Bryn, Andrew is healthy, vibrant, smart and loved, loved, loved. We are perfectly content with only having him and probably won't try to have another. So, thanks for being real! Love your show!

Bethenny, I love watching you because you are just you. Not apologies, no regrets. I love how you totally admit to your what I call in my own life "nutso moments." Those moments where you feel neurotic and anxiety ridden and it makes you crazy. Everyone goes through that with their children (I have 3 boys ages 15, 12 and 6. Trust me on thsi one!), husband and career's. It's refreshing to see on "reality" TV and definitely makes people relate to you. Baby Bryn is just so adorable by the way! What a happy, lovely kiddo!

"Forgiveness is giving up the hope of a different past" is a quote I heard or read a week ago and it is helping me deal with my own abandonment issues from my childhood. Like you, I struggle with feeling unloved or unworthy of being loved. I find it nearly impossible to trust people. I expect them to disappoint me or leave. Sometimes something will knock me back to my childhood, then mercifully I see or hear something that snaps me back to reality and I realize I am OK. When you were asked to speak to the "14 yr old girl" sitting next to you, it rang true for me as well. Someone in my FB circle posted a bunch of childhood grade school photos, and one popped up on my newsfeed. There "she" was ... all those memories and the hurt and pain flooded back. She was a pretty, shy little girl trying to smile and be brave. She didn't deserve the way she was treated. She was me, but as I stared at her photo, it was like looking at a childhood friend that I had forgotten. All the memories I had repressed came flooding back. I found myself talking to "her" and I told her she didn't deserve the way she was treated. Seeing the same pain on your face made me feel your pain. It is the same pain. I hope you find peace in your past. People may tell you that you are lucky; you are an adult and you know better now; you have a wonderful husband and beautiful child, so now you should be happy; or perhaps they think you are being selfish or shouldn't dwell in the past. I understand that you know all of that ... you are simply mourning for the childhood you should have had... the childhood you wish you'd had. The childhood you deserved to have. I understand, and thank you for sharing your pain along with your joys. I root for you in your successes, both in building a happy family for yourself, and in your business. Warm hugs.

Hey Bethenny,
So glad your back. I love watching you and your beautiful family. I was with my girls the other day in a store where your Skinny Girl products were prominent on the end isle (good placement). I told my daughters, Bethenny is a great business woman and you both could learn a lot from her. They said to me, mom, "You are always telling us not to buy celebrity products and they just stamp their name on "stuff" to make a buck, like the Kardashians." I told my girls Bethenny is different than a stamp on a product...she is the product.
Best Wishes

I just watched the first episode; I'd dvr'd it. Have always loved the show and have been really inspired by you because I went out on a limb and started my own biz 2 1/2 years ago. Really came here to say that I thought your friend Lisa was out of line as well. Her comments really bothered me; enough to come here and write this, which I never do. You can't control the crazy things other people say, but that's one that perhaps I wouldn't let slip. At least apologize to your fans for beng subjected to those kinds of comments on your show. Simple as that. You can't make up for it or take it back, and no one's asking you to. Just a simple acknowledgement that something was said that shouldn't have been is enough.

You are great. Glad your back.

I enjoy your show so much!! Live your life by your own rules! never change!

Bethanny I'm so,so, happy for you and Jason, and I just love that baby girl. Bethany I have had several loss of babies, my first was a miscarriage, then a little girl which lived for ten days, a little boy that lived for a hour on my chest, and another miscarriage, I learned that I had a incompetent cervic, so I had to have surgery called cervical ceclarge. If your physician haven't discussed it with you, you might want to inquire about it. I don't mean to get to personal in your life but, I guess you have to go there for the show, if you can prevent it don't degrade your husband, remember when you were single and you wanted a man? Think about it you have been blessed with a husband, I'm not going to say a excellent husband because for some reason that seems to bother you, just think about all of your accomplishment you have done excellent for yourself so if someone tell you that he's excellent just say he got it from me.

I think that him going to church is a good thing, you should go with him as much as possible then you both will be equally yoke. I know you are busy but make time for the Lord you have been blessed.

I did not like the way you were treated when you were on the housewives and see you were the underdog and God worked in your favor.

Now just be careful with the company you keep personally and also let Jason take the baby to see her grandmother, grandmothers are a blessing, just think you will be one in the future. My mother use to tell me that she wasn't ever going to see me with a child but, I finally had a baby girl a beautiful girl at that, her father and I divorce but we remain friends to this day so don't deny them that opportunity because my mother got to see my baby but, she had ALS.

Hope you enjoyed my post.
Love you all, keep up the good work, one day I hope to be as successful as you and as bless as you.

Be Bless

Glad to see part of your life again on t.v. the response Lisa had to Black guys stung a little , but me being single in her 30's and African-American it is mostly true, but it is also true of most other races of men over 30- there is children in the mix. I dont find a problem of wanting someone without kids if you dont have any. I held out for a childless male too- life is just easier that way especially when you are a strong succesfull woman. Enjoy the show excited to see whats to come!

Hi There Bethenny,Bryn and Jason.. ( In Refer: Upset Viewer)

Question about your wedding, you had a few proffesional dancers That I would like to hire can you share tehir contact information?

Bethanny,

I have watched you on RHWONY and was a fan of your's ( especially when you and the ladies went away with Kelly's crazy ass!). I watched your show and have enjoyed it in the past. However, on the most recent episode you had a conversation with your friend Lisa and she made a VERY RACIST comment about African-American men. I know she's a comic but she crossed the line. Until you, Lisa, and/or Bravo issue an apology for the remark me and my friends have agreed to cease watching your program.

Signed a Former Viewer and Friends

I love you again Bethenny!! I see you and Jason get in arguement this year. I like how you show reality of marriage and then to add baby, now toddler into the mix. I can't wait to try your Skinny Girl Cosmo!!

Great show! What impressed me was how caring you are towards everyone and that you worked your way up in the world. I'm glad you have your own show. The other "Housewives" are too childish and obscene, not worth watching anymore. But their melodrama attracts viewers. You're becoming the skinny rich girl so show us some philanthropy once in a while.

Bethenny you are not perfect, and do not profess to be! I LOVE THAT ABOUT YOU! You give us the good, bad, and the ugly of Bethenny and just allow us to accept it just as it is! You are by far the freshest breath in all of reality tv. I even respect the fact that you think people see you as being the bad guy, and Jason gets the role of "uber" good guy. Just for the record he is the best, and I am gay! LOL! But I also feel that you are blessed to have Julie and your other staffers! They deal with your sane days as well as your crazy days, and like me, love you all the more for your ability to be honest about who you are!

So happy to see you and your whole gang back for another season.

Bethenny, don't know if you read these but have to put my 2cents in, i love your show and wish you and Jason many years of love. At the risk of insulting you I want to give a little advice,I am 50yrs married and one of the best things I have learnt is to give him sex often, you will have a very happy husband who will do anything for you.I swear it works my husband is 77yrs and I need to have sex twice a week to keep him happy. He never demands it he is very sweet but I see a difference in his happiness when i make a point of making sex apart of our week. Know its hard with a baby ,but I plan it on my schedule because I'm tired at night . Morning may not appeal to you but come on how long does it take??? Test me on this, I'm convinced you will feel really good about your fella and his well being. He will be a happy guy, so much easier to deal with on all the other things you take care of.

Are we supposed to feel sorry for you because your husband is nice, your in-laws love and miss you, and your business is successful and growing rapidly? You say you are real, but your reality is skewed.

Bethanny,
I love your show, sorry about all the haters, dont really get why they watch and comment if they dont like you, either way they boost the rating so yay!! Lol! I love how blunt and unappropriate you are, you are so funny and talented and everyone should just except you for who you are........Brynn is gonna love you for always being you and so does Jason!

Hi Bethenny, it's great to see you again! I hope you learn this season or soon that you don't have to be perfect,nobody is.Remember that Brynn can feel your emotions and how you are feeling so please don't be too neurotic around her,she is beautiful and i hope she learns from you how to take the small stuff with a grain of salt.Show her how to be calm and interested in her surroundings and she will grow up to be a part of you and a part of jason.I can't wait to see this season! Good Luck!

Bethenny,
I totally get what you mean by, ' good cop, bad cop', in your relationship. Crikey, my darling Husband has always been, 'the good guy', with the children, friends, etc. I'm the rule maker, however, I wouldn't change one thing. After 30 years together, we compliment each other, and I don't feel any less loved or important than he is. Yeah it's not easy being the strict one but, the children come to me with the serious stuff, and that is an honor indeed. Also, I too come from a crazy family, and my Husband comes from ' leave it to beaver'. It has been hard over the years to embrace, 'normal' family interaction, luckily my Husband understands and gets that I need space when too many people are about. Jason will get it, wait and see. God Bless.

Love you, your family, your friends, and your show. You have worked your ass off to get to where you are, and you deserve to have it all. I am so sorry about your recent miscarriage, I hope for you much peace and another chance to have a child (you and Jason made an adorable baby with Bryn).

The constant complaining about your life, no matter how much good happens in your life, or you actually get what you want, is so old. No matter what, you still are not happy and I don't think you really want to be because then what would you talk/complain about? And how long are you going to go use your unhappy childhood as an exucse and not move past it? You are in your 40's enough already, move on and live your life. Everyone has had rotten things happen to them as kids, some much worse then you, but they don't talk about it constantly or use it as an excuse. You are going to project your insecurities onto Bryn with the constant chatter--it just goes nowhere and you sound like a broken record. No wonder you had low ratings, its repeat, repeat and repeat. so sorry you got everything you ever wanted and guess what it still doesn't make like any easier, marriage is work, having a kid is work, life is work. Grow up already.

Really getting tired of the Don Rickles routine. Becoming a bore.

Bethany, I love your show! I missed it the other night because I have been so busy all week, but I set it to record and just got arournd to watching it. I thought it was good, but I also thought your friend Lisa's comment about not ending up with a black man because she wanted a man with no kids was stereotypical and out of line. As a black woman who obviously came from a black man and has a black brother, I was offended. I understand it was a joke, but come on now!! Some things are better left unsaid. SMH My brother is a pretty successful black man with a masters degree, and I am so glad that the white woman (who is also pretty successful) he married didn't have the same sentiment your friend has of black men because I guess he would have never married the love of his life because he did have one child when they meet and later married. I myself am with a great black man who is 30 and has no kids. (what do you know they do exsist) If your over the age of 30 chances are most men or women of any race will have children and possibly have been married. It's life. To imply that all black men just make babies is insane. Your friend is very ignorant and needs to keep those kinds of statments to herself. I look forward to watching your season and hope comments that could be seen as racit don't make there way throuthout the season.

Wow- I thought it would be difficult to view Bethenny in the same way as I did a year ago when she had success, but she was not a millioniare/celbrity. Simply because it is easy to watch someone struggle, but once they are a notch above us then it's a whole other ballgame. However, I recognize that the money actually is serving to make things more difficult for this marriage. I wish her luck with a new baby and also with Jason and Bryn. I think it's looking rocky at this point, but Jason cannot get off the roller coaster.

Betyhenny I love you...but you should take time for your husband more..sex and intimacy is important i a marriage..Very VERY important beware....he needs you the wife ...not only the bussiness women....

Remember, one day your baby will leave home. She's watching how you treat your inlaws, and will do the same. Teach her to treasure time with them, send them cards and gifts, call them, so one day she will do the same for you. She will grow up and leave home before you can blink an eye, and you will miss her as much as if she were still a child, because she always will be in your eyes. Quit seeing yourself as a "victim" of your husband's family and character. It doesn't become you.

BETHENNY,I agree with VIEWERCHRIS about Jason and him making YOU feel quilty about his family its his family he should stop forcing YOU to see them YOU are working hard on your business and want to spend time with Bryn I could tell from the 1st season that Jason didn't walk on water he enjoyed the spotlight but it would get old with him, most men can't handle the woman being more successful especially someone that was raised in Mayberry USA.They usually wants a stay at home mom that will live next door to grandparents.THAT NOT YOU ! I hope he realize he has a wonderful wife and great mother for his child

It's not that often in life I can laugh, but I adore Bethenny and everyone around her. I told my children that marriage is the hardest job, and I hate to say this, but husbands get jealous of children for the Mom is always near them, kissing them, etc. Husbands are bigger babies and want the same cuddling, kissing and comfort.
Enjoy this time now because as my Mom always told me, little children little problems and bigger kids....hmmm. I love this show!

On this episode, did I hear someone say something about Italians, Mexicans, Canadians, Poles, Russians, Greeks, Ukaranians, South Africans, Floridians, Irish, Columbians, Australians, Hungarians, Isralies, Egyptians, Persians, Japanese, Chinese, Swedish, Dutch, Germans, African-Americans, Puerto Ricans, and purple-people-eaters?

This is for the comment from JamD...WTF?? First of all Bethenny is HILARIOUS and those of us who have followed her from the beginning know what she has been thru..the highs and lows..so dont watch because you CLEARLY "dont get it or get bethenny..nuff said...And as far as the "food blogger" i adore him, he is so shy and quirky and I love love love that Bethenny gives him air time..again reason why I' GET HER" and clearly you dont...I could cry with happiness that B can buy a Tribeca apt...You dont realize what she has been through....so dont watch and dont blog about something you dont understand...and for all the other idiots who love to chime in with their negativity..Bethenny is a SURVIVOR and a worker..she earned everything she has...she started out with nothing..It is a story of great strength and tenacity and Im proud to let my girls watch her show (potty mouth and all)..Because she is real and authentic..something that is sadly lacking in most reality shows..Bethenny allows us to see all facets of her life..she doesnt hold back..the good the bad and the ugly..Rock on sista..I for one am a HUGE HUGE fan..wishing you and Jason and Bryn and all the cast much love and happiness for the upcoming season..MAZEL xo

Welcome Back! I see that Jill and Kelly have blogged quite a bit! Your show is bigger and better! I love that you are such an inspiration for my 26 year old daughter who's dream is to make it to CNN,New York, she is on her way. You are so honest and real. I am thrilled to see a truly great family make it! Thanks for sharing the ups and downs of life, your sense of humor is infectious!
To all the jealous haters, go get a Skinny Girl Sangria! Bryn is precious, you need to do a Disney World Trip with her and the family! Hope you stay on Bravo forever. Jason is a great man Bethenny he is a real person and your fulcrum, your support your best friend. I know at least 40 other women friends and associates that love you and your wonderfulk show. The housewives are getting pretentious and contrived you always are grounded and REAl, gOT TO GO BUY SOME sKINNY gIRL sANGRIA:)

So, here we go again. They say you can tell a lot about a person by the friends she keeps. Lisa and Hoda are keepers. Forgetabout Lisa's tongue-in-cheek remarks. Surely or is it Shirley, her stage presence "snuck" into the conversation with the cameras rolling. By the way, I'm shirley sure that you won't remember this, but I'm the Nonna from way back when. "Peace (sic) of cake", granddaughter. She was just a baby when she mimicked my salutation to my house guest. Gawd, you'd of thunk that you would have a husband and adorable little girl. I say Mazel, Bethenny, Mazel. As an afterthought, my darling and I were in the city for the weekend and went to the Children's Museum of Art on Charlton Street. Stupendous. You might try it sometime. Looking forward with much anticipation to stawking (sic), or is it gawking into your personal life this season. Thanks for the memories and the future.

Bravo, how and why is this a TV show? I'm not sure what the premise is? Watching Bethenny have lunch and dinner with various "friends" so the viewer can hear how complicated and demanding her life is? Real people who have complicated and demanding lives are unable to buy a new Tribeca apartment and have leisurely lunches with friends. This show is so boring. Just because Bethenny says a curse word, every other word, and has a filthy mouth, does not mean it's entertaining.

I've seen enough of that food blogger--why is he always on the show? He barely speaks.

Very happy for Bethenny and her success, but the more I watch the show, the less likely I am to ever buy a skinny girl anything in the future.

Did I hear a derogatory remark about Puerto Ricans in this episode? I was sure I did, but I wondered if anyone else also caught it. It's really hard to watch Bethenny and listen to her commentary. That mouth isn't as funny as she thinks it is. UGH. If she were someone I knew in my personal life, I would have to cut her loose like so much drift wood.

Funny, funny, funny!! Your life is nuts! Also I wish people would stop giving you *#$* for the comment Lisa made. Apparently these people don't know her comedy. Everyone is so touchy-yikes! I agree with some of the viewers, you need to slow down and enjoy your success. I can't believe you are doing a talk show in addition to everything else. Does this mean you are done with BEA? That would suck! I am willing to bet most of your fan base are working moms. We are not home in the middle of the day to watch a talk show. I think Jason needs some attention. This may sound old-fashion but men generally like to be the caretaker. It probably bothers him that you are now the big bread winner. Give him a more important role in your business or the opportunity to do his own thing. Lastly, doesn't it piss you off that Teresa Guidice stole your "Skinny" label for her cookbook? I hope you have trademarked the term.

DEAR BRAVO I HOP THAT SINCE YOU POSTED A 10 PARAGRAPH BLOG FROM LIN CRYST THAT YOU WILL POST MINE. THANK U IN ADVANCE LOL!!!
ANYWAY I'D REALLY LIKE TO POINT OUT TO BETHENNY THAT THIS FIRST EPISODE THERE WAS WAY TOO MUCH TALK ABOUT SEX AND GENITALS. AND EVEN YOU SAID TO JAKE "WHEN IS IT TIME TO STOP CURSING AROUND BRYN". I WANT TO REMIND YOU THAT A LOT OF YOUR VIEWERS WATCH WITH THEIR YOUNG DAUGHTERS AND THEY LOOK UP TO YOU. I WENT TO SEE YOU ON YOUR SKINNYGIRL TOUR IN PROVIDENCE RI LAST YEAR AND THERE WERE EVEN LITTLE GIRLS THERE TO SEE YOU WITH THEIR MOMS. THEY LOVE YOU FOR YOUR HUMOR AND WIT NOT A POTTY MOUTH. I AM NO PRUDE BY ANY MEANS. PLEASE TRY TO TONE IT DOWN FOR THEIR SAKE, IM SURE YOU WOULDN'T WANT YOUR LITTLE ONE TO HAVE THAT KIND OF LANGUAGE SPOKEN AROUND HER. JUST MY OPINION

What a women you are! I find it sooooo incredibly helpful and eye-opening to see you go through the very same things other women go through when they wait to marry and have kids only to find that everything they waited for happens all at the same time. I have just lived the three hardest and best years of my life...being married and having my first child and going back to work. It all made my body react so strangly...like system overload. I think it is normal for many of us moms and I believe a lot of it is hormonal...have you had your thyroid checked? Another blogger said to slow down and enjoy the moments with Brynn...i am absolutely sure you do that as much as you can. I have learned to let go of the guilt (to a degree...work in progress) and each time I begin to feel anxious and like everything good might end, I take a deep breath and thank the Universe for all that I have. Deep breaths are like anything else...a habit to be learned. practice, practice, practice. As for the in-laws...it is so apparent that you love them. I think it is very hard to adopt a new entire family when you marry. They love you for you. Don't do what you feel you "should" do for them. Do what is comforable for you. You are all learning how you fit together and what that looks and feels like. It takes time. Sry to preach, but i felt I had some insight into what you've been going thru given my similar experience...minus, of course, the multi-million dollar pay increase. ;O)
Your fan,

Loved the first episode! You and Lisa were great, its a shame people are freaking out about her comments. She's a COMIC!!!! Glad the show is back and I look forward to the rest of the season.

I cannot understand all this understanding for Jason. He is a great guy, but he needs to truly stop trying to make up for his brothers death. You honored him in YOUR wedding, you honored him by naming Bryn after him in lieu of you two deciding on a name that would be solely Bryns. Now 7 weeks of not seeing his parents is too long?? Jason needs to be more pleasing to his wife And making sure she is happy?.....not his parents. Parents should and do survive after a child gets married. It is hard, bout Jason. You are putting too pressure on Bethenny who appears to be a great mother. Now go show him this

Thank God your back! Loved your first show of the season! My cheeks killed me from laughing so hard. Between the big balls and the office tunnel I was so happy to have BEA back on BRAVO! Your a gem for BRAVO and don't let the haters get you down. Perhaps those negitive blogs are from Jealous JZ???? Just saying??? heehee You are I Love Lucy, Mary Tyler Moore, Survivor, Friends, Sienfeld and SNL all in one! I bought seven of your Skinny Girl products at Walmart for all my friends for X-Mas. We love watching your show and sipping your drink. Between your eye candy Jason, cute as a button Bryn and Cookie we love you all. Bless your COC Julie for holding it all together for you. I wish you a ton of success!
