Bethenny Frankel takes a swipe at Kim Kardashian over Gwyneth Paltrow interview

Bethenny Frankel made a slight dig at Kim Kardashian over her recent interview with Gwyneth Paltrow.

The Real Housewives of New York City alum, 52, commented underneath a photo shared on Paltrow’s Instagram of her and Kim, 42, where the actress, 50, praised the reality TV star for ‘challenging’ the ideas of how a woman should look in the caption.

Frankel – who took issue with the SKIMS founder for ‘irresponsible’ photoshopping earlier this year – appeared to find the caption amusing, commenting: ‘I mean LOL.’

Kardashian appeared on Gwyneth’s Goop podcast the day prior, and later took a selfie with the Iron Man star, who gushed about her via Instagram. 

‘@kimkardashian is fascinating to the world, we know this. For me she is fascinating because she challenges so many ideas of what a woman is supposed to be, and how she is supposed to look and behave while doing it,’ Paltrow wrote.

She added, ‘I loved getting to interview her for the @goop podcast and get into this and so much more.’

However, Bethanny and a large number of Goop fans were not thrilled with the choice to have Kim on the podcast, and Bethenny’s comment quickly garnered nearly 4,000 likes. 

Many fans expressed their disappointment, with one writing, ‘I thought goop was about wellness, holistic approaches… im confused.’ 

Yet another user wrote: ‘I find it disappointing that you choose to support a woman whose values are so opposite of natural beauty.’ 

‘Irresponsible’: Frankel took issue with the SKIMS founder for ‘irresponsible’ photoshopping earlier this year, saying: ‘It’s irresponsible, it’s reckless, it’s not inspirational’; Pictured 2022

‘Destructive’: Bethenny added, ‘It’s destructive. It creates eating disorders, insecurity, depression. It’s a serious thing’; Kim seen in a white bikini earlier this month

‘I love how celebrities are trying to go on podcasts now. Like “look, I’m one of you!” No, you’re not. And you clearly know your rule is coming to close. Go out gracefully,’ someone else added.

While on the podcast Kim discussed how she’s ‘done everything’ in the beauty sphere, including meeting with aestheticians, facialists, and ‘tried every laser’ to look perfect. 

This isn’t the first time Frankel has taken an issue with Kim. In September, she minced no words when sharing her opinions about the Kardashians and Jenners and their flagrant photoshop use.

‘It’s not fair to women that are just trying to get by. It’s irresponsible, it’s reckless, it’s not inspirational, it’s not aspirational,’ the Bravo star told TMZ.

Role models: ‘I want a world where children don’t see this phony, filtered, attention grabbing, lying culture celebrated,’ she wrote to a fan who said she was the Kardashians’ ‘biggest fan’

‘It’s America’s pastime. The fans are people with daughters & sons who have hope for realistic role models for their children. Football is not the superficial land of fashion. Those fans can’t be bought.’

She also emphasized the need for new role models: ‘I want a world where children don’t see this phony, filtered, attention grabbing, lying culture celebrated.’ 

Frankel also previously criticized Kim for her Curated fake lottery scam, her ‘impractical and overpriced’ cosmetics, her obvious Photoshopping, ostentatious pandemic vacations, and she even sided with Ray J in the sex tape scandal.
