AceShowbiz - Bethenny Frankel said she is not dating anyone after her marriage was over during an interview on "Watch What Happens Live". She explained it on Sunday, March 22 to host Andy Cohen.
"I wish that my dating life was as colorful and exciting as it's written about, but right now I'm kind of at a standstill," she explained. "I dated this year, I've had a lot of different experiences but I have a daughter and I am still married." She added, "I don't know where my judgment is. I don't know what I'm looking for. I think the guy I'd need to be with needs to be able to handle me, which is a tall order." Most recently, Frankel was linked to Michael Cerussi lll.
Even though she has split from husband Jason Hoppy, she doesn't view her marriage as a complete failure. "I don't really view them as failures," she explained. "I don't think of it that way, but I don't view them as successes. Don't get it twisted...I think of them as experiences and I really can't compare the two. They're very different experiences. We have to talk about them separately," said the 44-year-old woman. She noted later, "I don't believe in regret. I am right where am I am because of all my experiences."
Frankel also admitted to learning a few lessons in the world of love. According to her, money is the root of all evil. "I think people should be in relationships with people that really accept them and understand them. I think fame and attention and money does not bring out the best in everybody," she shared. "I think money, in many ways, is the root of all evil."
She also explained she would never legally marry again, especially on television. "If anybody would ever want to get married to me on television, I would run like a thief in the night," she said with a smile. "I will never get legally married again, I will never ever be legally married again. Marriage is the 'Hotel California': You can check out anytime, but you can never leave."
