Bethenny Frankel is probably the most pivotal characters on The Real Housewives of New York City. 

She can effortlessly create drama from thin air and it keeps us tuning in every damn week to watch just how much she can stir the damn pot. 

Her latest words surrounded her claims that Jules and Michael Wainstein signing a post-nuptial agreement before filming kicked off on the Bravo reality series.

Bethanny bashed Jules for using the show to showcase her divorce to Michael. 

It was all pretty bizarre and made the reunion special pretty awkward to watch. 

Jules was playing the sympathy card and acting all shocked about her marriage crumbling and even brushed off Bethenny’s claims. 

Now, it appears that Bethanny was totally right about the whole thing. 

Who would have thought it?

A source close to the situation revealed to Radar Online that Bethenny was right. 

It really raises a whole lot of questions about just how fake everything was with Jules on the show. 

If she planned on using her divorce as a storyline for the hit series, it really puts things in perspective. 

It’s not uncommon for reality TV shows to be manipulated in some way, but what Jules did was just deplorable. 

Maybe she knew that was the only way of her getting on the show, but it still doesn’t explain why she lasted just one season.

"Jules and Michael were with Bethenny a few times and that is why she could say that she knew them," the source explained.

"Jules and Michael told her about their marriage problems one time at her house before they started taping the show."

"They didn’t blatantly say ‘we are getting divorced for the show,’" the source explained." 

"Just that they had a pretty good idea that their marriage was having problems. They did talk about it with her, and she knew it was going to happen."

There’s no denying that Bethenny is super smart.

She collects information and uses it to her advantage when the opportunity arises. 

Just look at the way she revealed Tom D’Agostino was doing the dirty on LuAnn de Lesseps.

It’s not like LuAnn believed any of it. She was far too blinded by love. 

What do you think of all of this?

Does this make you glad that Jules had exited the series after one season?
