Court Face-Off: Bethenny Frankel Admits To Throwing Water On Ex Jason Hoppy In Nasty Fight
March 25 2019, Published 8:55 p.m. ET
Bethenny Frankel was once so enraged with her ex Jason Hoppy, she threw water on him while he was sleeping, the Real Housewives of New York star admitted in court on March 25, RadarOnline.com can exclusively report.
After sobbing earlier in the day over a “taunting” 2015 FaceTime call from Hoppy, Frankel, 48, answered difficult questions from her ex’s attorney Robert Wallack.
After insisting she wasn’t moving to Boston — her new boyfriend Paul Bernon’s hometown — Frankel fessed up to an explosive fight with Hoppy years prior.
“There was a time where he was sleeping and you threw water at him, correct?” Wallack asked.
“I don't know if he was sleeping, but I threw water on him,” Frankel responded.
Wallack then told her to look at a certain page of her 2014 divorce court testimony.
“’I splashed water at him when he was sleeping. I cracked.’ Okay then yes,” she clarified.
In 2014, RadarOnline.com exclusively reported Frankel made the confession in court. The couple split in 2012, but the divorce wasn’t finalized until 2016.

Now, Frankel is fighting for more physical custody of Bryn, now 8, and “ultimate decision-making authority” over her daughter.
Hoppy, however, wants to retain joint custody.
The reality TV mom has accused Hoppy of “abuse,” and emotional “torture” even years after their messy divorce.
The trial will continue in New York court on March 26.
