Bethenny Frankel just got stood up for dinner by this Miami influencer. Here's the tea
If you're going to stand up Bethenny Frankel, you're 100 percent going to hear about it on her social media channels.
The outspoken 'Real Housewives of NYC' vet did just that Friday night after local influencer Alix Earle didn't show up for a dinner at Carbone.
In a pre GRWM (Get Ready With Me) video, Frankel told her followers that she was 'taking the kids out,' meaning the TikToker and her NFL boyfriend Braxton Berrios.
The reality star says the UM alum reached out to her initially via IM, and they decided to get together. The 54 year old said she was excited to discuss the 24 year old's alma mater as her teen daughter Bryn has expressed interest in going there.
Welp, it was not to be.
Hours later, Frankel gives an update: Earle never showed up to the fancy SoBe Italian eatery.
In the video, the Skinnygirl founder appears to be in a rideshare car, bopping to the beat of Gnarls Barkley's 'Crazy.'
'POV,' said the text over screen. 'A 20 something influencer named Alix stood you up when you could have stayed home in pajamas... #lostmymind.'
In yet another viral update, taking off her makeup, the Bravolebrity explains that while waiting at Carbone, she texted the 'Hot Mess' podcaster to tell her where she was seated. That's when Earle, who apparently felt unwell after recently traveling, called her in a panic, having mixed up the day.
Frankel ended up staying and enjoying the meal solo because 'that's what a grown-up does.'
The women agreed on a do-over the following evening, when the It Girl showed up with a giant apology bouquet. The two personalities were seen at new hotspot The Joyce on Española Way in Miami Beach.
'Given the venue's exclusivity,' an insider told Miami.com, 'their joint appearance quickly became the talk of the town.'
Both Frankel and Earle naturally shared snippets of their evening, and all seemed right with the world yet again.
According to a fellow Joyce patron: 'The two were locked in a serious but friendly conversation throughout their almost two hour-dinner. They kept mostly to themselves. The dinner seemed as much like a business meeting as it did a girls' night out.'
Be on the lookout for a future collab since Frankel, who graduated from Pine Crest School in Fort Lauderdale, recently got a place down here.
'Round 2 was worth the wait,' she wrote.

Adam Sandler promises Derrick Henry movie role if he breaks 2,000 yards
Adam Sandler promises Derrick Henry movie role if he breaks 2,000 yards Show Caption Hide Caption Barry Sanders on the importance of running backs in today's NFL Hall of Fame running back Barry Sanders believes we are seeing a resurgence in the RB position in today's league. Sports Seriously Coming off of his most productive rushing season since 2020, Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry just got an extra incentive to be even better in 2025. Actor and comedian Adam Sandler promised Henry a movie role and a nice dinner together if the five-time Pro Bowler can rush for over 2,000 yards next season. Sandler sent the promise in the form of a video to the Dan Patrick Show one day after Henry told Patrick that the "Happy Gilmore" star was his favorite actor. "If you ever see [Sandler] again, tell him I'm a really big fan, and I'd really love to meet him one day," Henry told Patrick on Thursday. BALTIMORE RAVENS: Why Chuck Pagano came out of retirement to return to Baltimore Patrick responded with the terms of the bet right after – a 2,000-yard season for a movie role in one of Sandler's next projects – but it wasn't until Friday that the actor backed him up and confirmed the deal. "Two-thousand yards plus this year gets you not only in the movie, but we have a nice dinner together," Sandler said in the video. Henry messaged Patrick after seeing Sandler's video to express his gratitude: "That was really cool!" He also made sure to thank the actor for the additional push ahead of the season. Henry has rushed for 2,000 yards once before, in the aforementioned 2020 season with the Tennessee Titans that earned him an Offensive Player of the Year award. In 16 games that season, Henry tallied 2,027 rushing yards and 17 touchdowns on 378 carries, all of which led the league. His 5.4 average yards per carry ranked third of all running backs with at least 150 attempts. Last year, Henry's first with Baltimore, the nine-year NFL veteran put up 1,921 yards on 325 carries (5.9 yards per carry, which led all running backs) and a league-leading 16 rushing touchdowns. If Henry dominates opposing defenses again in 2025, those defenders can put the blame on Sandler for giving the running back just one more reason to excel.

Elite DB Brody Jennings on Miami official: 'I had the time of my life'
Jacksonville (Fla.) Mandarin High School athlete Brody Jennings spent last weekend at Miami for his official visit under tragic circumstances. His father, Bradley, passed away just before the trip was to begin for the family. The group would follow through and see Coral Gables once more as the Hurricane staff worked to make the weekend as uplifting as possible. Advertisement "My dad passed a few days ago, so I couldn't really think," Jennings told local media. "I came on the visit and had the time of my life. I came here to have fun. It was about football, but more about family and football at the same time. He (Mario Cristobal) is not just a football guy, he's a family guy -- all the coaches are family guys. Father figures. "My dad wanted me to be strong. He liked Miami a lot. He liked the school a lot and I like it a lot. We wanted to still see everything." Jennings has considerable connections to the area and Miami program itself, with two siblings attending UM, including his sister currently on the track team. The bigger picture with the people and the place all came together for a memorable time on campus. Advertisement "It's been great," he said. "I don't know if any other schools are topping this official visit. Not even in just seeing everything, but the coaches. Coach Cristobal is a great coach. Coach (Will) Harris ad Coach (Zac) Etheridge -- great coaches, and the whole staff was great. "I've been here multiple times to see what the program is about is something serious. It's like that for real. It's a great program to play in with great people to be around. My family is from Miami. They've been down before and they enjoyed the visit, too. They enjoy the school and they're Miami Hurricanes fans already, so it would be great playing around the hometown of my parents."

He remains on board with the Big Ten power, but all involved know this recruitment has more layers to be determined. Advertisement "It's gonna come down to the wire," he said. "That's not gonna stop Miami from recruiting me. Miami is coming really hard, Michigan is still coming hard. Miami wants me really bad. "Miami is a great school. Academics, private school. I could be successful with the school and life after football. There is a lot to offer." Florida is set to host Jennings this weekend. Georgia and Michigan get the next two weekends of official visits later this month. The four-star recruit says Sherrone Moore and company are keeping an open mind as visits continue to go down. "They know great players will visit other schools," Jennings said. "They know how hard I worked to get here, so they support me even though other schools will be on me."

Steelers, Aaron Rodgers Deal Sparks Firm Remarks From Former Teammate
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. At long last, the Pittsburgh Steelers and future Hall of Fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers have worked out a deal and joined forces. After an offseason full of rumors, reports, and speculation, Rodgers is officially the new starting quarterback for the Steelers. Both the team and Rodgers have one goal in mind. They want to compete for a championship together during the 2025 NFL season. Rodgers is getting a one-year deal from Pittsburgh. It's not for certain, but this could very well be his final football season. If that is the case, this will be the farewell tour for one of the best quarterbacks to ever play the game. Aaron Rodgers #8 of the New York Jets celebrates after scoring a touchdown during the second half of an NFL football game against the Houston Texans, at MetLife Stadium on October 31, 2024 in East... Aaron Rodgers #8 of the New York Jets celebrates after scoring a touchdown during the second half of an NFL football game against the Houston Texans, at MetLife Stadium on October 31, 2024 in East Rutherford, New Jersey. More Photo byFollowing the deal getting done, there has been a split reaction to the news. Some believe that Rodgers can lead the Steelers on a deep run. Others think it's a bad move for the franchise. Read more: Steelers Linked to Possible Trade With Packers for Aaron Rodgers Support One of the 41-year-old quarterback's former teammates has spoken out with a firm stance on the deal. That teammate is none other than former Green Bay Packers wide receiver James Jones. During a segment on FS1's "The Facility," Jones did not hold back from issuing his thoughts on the upcoming season for Rodgers and Pittsburgh. "Well, they're a playoff team now, again, and once you get to the playoffs, anything can happen," Jones said. "We all know, you just want to punch your ticket to the dance... Coach [Mike] Tomlin should have a smile on his face this morning because now your team has a chance to compete... Aaron Rodgers walks into that building, instantly, you are a playoff team." Those are some strong words from Jones. However, Rodgers has proved time and time again that he's a magician with the football in his hands. Read more: Former Steelers Star Rips Into Team After Aaron Rodgers Signing Even last season with the New York Jets, Rodgers played a strong season. He completed 63 percent of his pass attempts for 3,897 yards, 28 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. The team may not have played well, but Rodgers proved he still has it. Now, the Steelers must go all-in on trying to win in 2025. Adding another weapon for Rodgers would make a lot of sense. Any move available to improve the roster should be made. While some aren't thrilled about Rodgers becoming the new lead man in Pittsburgh, he gives the franchise the best chance to win. It's going to be a very entertaining season for the Steelers with one of the best of all time powering the offense. For more Pittsburgh Steelers and NFL news, head over to Newsweek Sports.
