Bethenny Frankel is coming back swinging after Joy Behar claimed her breasts were fake on “The View.”
The former “Real Housewives of New York” star insisted they’re real and slammed Behar for living a “miserable” life.
“This is actually a lift, Joy,” Frankel said in a TikTok video Sunday about her breasts, which were discussed on the daytime talk show in reference to her jaw-dropping appearance at the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Runway Show.
“But the thing that that show really illustrated was that women my age and older, women of a certain age, can live their lives freely with happiness and with joy, and that we’re not washed-up, miserable older women,” the 54-year-old Skinnygirl founder continued.
Frankel shared that she actually had a breast lift 15 or 20 years ago because she used to have large breasts that were “saggy” and “floppy” in high school.
But aside from the discussion about her body, she felt sorry for Behar, 82.
“She doesn’t seem to be living her life with any joy,” Frankel said. “Sadly, Joy is painting the picture of the older, seemingly miserable, washed-up woman that all of us are trying to show that we aren’t.”
She took one final swipe at the television host in a concluding message to her followers.
“You keep being happy, you keep living your life, you keep being the example of a woman of a certain age that you would be proud of, and we have women like Joy Behar that remind us of who we don’t want to be,” she said.
The beef started Wednesday when “The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg brought up Frankel’s candid comments that it took a lot of work for the women who walked the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Runway Show — which also included Alix Earle, Livvy Dunne and Ilona Maher — to look good and that none of them looked like that two hours prior.
Behar replied that while she appreciated Frankel’s honesty, she also had fake boobs.
Frankel’s fit physique has been a topic of discussion since the Miami show in May.
Earlier this month, the former “Real Housewives of New York” star told Page Six Style that she just wanted to be herself on the runway.
“No one’s confusing me with a model, and trying to be one would’ve been inauthentic,” she explained.
And while Frankel — who’s a mother to her 15-year-old daughter, Bryn — tried saunas and cold plunges and “ate well” for 10 days before the event, she didn’t exercise.
“I don’t work out — like, at all,” Frankel shared. “My only movement is walking.”
