Despite going through a nasty divorce and writing a book called I Suck at Relationships So You Don’t Have To, Bethenny Frankel was recently spotted walking hand-in-hand with a new man. So, who is this new guy? Buckle up, because there seem to be conflicting reports on his identity.
Recently, it was reported that Bethenny was dating wealthy Florida businessman Michael Toppel. The two have been seen together multiple times since her split from former boyfriend Michael Cerussi earlier this year.
Here are a couple pics of Bethenny and Michael enjoying a day at the beach together:
As finances are concerned, the two are matched as evenly as a mink coat and a bare backside. According to court docs filed in 2013 (at the time of his divorce), Toppel was worth more than $15 million and earning over $61,000 per month.
However, while it sounds plausible that Michael could be Bethenny’s new beau, sources say they are “just friends.”
Earlier this month, Bethenny took to Twitter to tell fans she doesn’t have a new man:
However, there’s no denying something is brewing between Bethenny and a new mystery man. Photographers captured the Skinny Girl strolling the streets of NYC just days ago holding hands with a tall, dark, and handsome fellow. Ssome media outlets have reported it was Michael, but the pictures of the two men just don’t match. Click here to check them out for yourself.
Is it possible that Michael and Bethenny really are just friends and she’s snuggling up with someone else? Or is Bethenny playing the field?
More to come….
