Bethenny Frankel Tells Ellen DeGeneres: You & My Daughter Bryn Are Helping Me Through Painful Divorce

Bethenny Frankel tells Ellen DeGeneres Friday that while her divorce with Jason Hoppy after less than three years of marriage is making for a miserable experience, she's upheld by her daughter Bryn and support from her friends, notably including the talk show host.

Ellen gently introduced the topic saying, "The current issue of People magazine … I know you talked to them and this is a very bad divorce -- not that any divorce is good -- and nobody ever wants that to happen.

"I know you are going through a very, very hard time right now. And I say it every time you are here. I love you and I know what’s going on and I’m sorry about it. I support you and I hope it all works out soon," Ellen said. "Because it is not a good thing to go through … I love you."

"I love you so much," the former Real Housewives of New York star, 42, told her bestie. "Thank you so much for everything you’ve done for me -- just thank you."

Ellen responded, "It’s hard: You’ve got a 3-year-old baby girl and that’s the most important thing is loving that little girl."

Bethenny called Bryn, her daughter with Hoppy, "unbelievable."

"She is the light of my life and she gets me through this and you and this experience is getting me through it," the sexy socialite, showing off her gorgeous gams, told Ellen. "So I am very appreciative."
