Bethenny Frankel Wins Reality Royalty At MTV Movie & TV Awards
The Real Housewives of New York City alum Bethenny Frankel receives the Reality Royalty Award at the MTV Movie & TV Awards: Unscripted. Bethenny burst onto the scene as an original housewife in the very first season of RHONY. When she stepped on screen, Bethenny defined herself as different from the stuffy and elitist Upper East Side New York circle that she occasionally ran with. Unlike her castmates, Bethenny was, at the time, single and childless, and an ambitious go-getter and burgeoning businesswoman. She shamelessly pushed her beverage company, Skinnygirl, much to the chagrin of the other housewives, particularly Luann De Lesseps. But what made her unpopular in the beginning ultimately led to booming success. Her ambition and blunt personality made Bethenny one of the most beloved housewives.
