Real Housewives of New York City’s Kelly Bensimon Addresses All the Rumors
Does Kelly have a screw loose? Kelly defends her erratic behavior on the show (specifically addressing her St. John’s meltdown) saying: “People called me crazy, but what they saw was me reacting – in an honest way – to a situation that wasn’t honest. Then everyone ganged up on me. So of course I looked crazy.”
Was she a snob in the throes of a showdown with Bethenny Frankel during their infamous fight two years back? After lashing out at the former Housewife during a Brass Monkey showdown (“I’m up here, and you’re down there”) Kelly explains that that “it wasn’t about social hierarchy but about her behavior.”
