Bethenny Frankel 'would retire if she finds a billionaire on a boat'
Bethenny Frankel would "definitely retire" if she finds a "billionaire on some big boat".
The 54-year-old star has admitted that she would happily walk away from her work life if she finds the right man.
Speaking to ADWEEK, Bethenny said: "I would definitely retire - like, if I end up with some billionaire on some big boat."
Bethenny considers herself to be an "accidental influencer". But the reality star insists there's also real skill to her success.
Bethenny - who is best known for starring on 'The Real Housewives of New York City' - said: "I see a lot of entrepreneurs and business owners that can't help but want to promote themselves. But not everybody can do it, and you have to really know if you can. It has to land."
The influencer believes that honesty and authenticity are the keys to her success.
She explained: "Be honest, be authentic - this is what I'm doing."
Earlier this month, Bethenny revealed that she felt like she was "drowning" before moving to Florida.
In a post on TikTok, Bethenny - who has daughter Bryn, 14, with ex-husband Jason Hoppy - explained why she decided to swap New York for Florida.
She said: "The morning of March 19th, this wasn't even a thought and by that evening, a series of events transpired and we decided it was the best move to move here [to Florida].
"Within five weeks, [we] had sold and bought a home in both places. We'll keep this apartment, but I sold my home and bought a house in Florida ...
"[The previous house] was drowning me. It was just the two of us ...
"It was a massive property, and I made the decision to buy that property when I was in a different stage of my life. I thought it would be this, like, big family home and that I'd be entertaining there a lot.
"The house was drowning me because it had an apple orchard, it was a historical house, it had all this property, and it was beautiful and amazing for a big family with kids and grandparents.
"It just ended up being a place that I spent a lot of time alone [in] because I didn't really know many people in that community."

Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz detail ‘intense' wedding that allegedly sparked Victoria feud
Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz recalled their 'intense' wedding planning process that allegedly sparked her feud with his mum, Victoria Beckham. 'Weddings can be intense, especially when you're busy making sure everyone else is having fun,' Peltz said in a joint Glamour interview with Brooklyn published today. The Lola actress also noted that, ahead of their wedding, they were advised to 'take a moment' for themselves on their special day. 'Step away, breathe, be together. Those were my favourite moments,' Peltz mused. Brooklyn agreed, telling the outlet that they found a moment to 'disappear for a second' after their ceremony. 'We took a quick drive, just the two of us. It was perfect,' he revealed, noting that the best wedding advice he could offer was to 'love each other, be honest, and always protect one another.' When asked about how he and his wife protect their relationship while living under the spotlight, Brooklyn said that he simply 'ignore[s] the noise.' 'Keep your head down, work hard, be kind,' Brooklyn, 26, continued. 'People are always going to talk. What matters is that we're happy together.' Peltz, 30, admitted that 'it's not always easy' to shrug off the whispers and is often tempted to respond. 'On TikTok there are always random stories popping up about us,' she said. 'When I see fake news, my instinct is to shut it down.' But the actress finds that defending herself can sometimes do more harm than good. 'It's not worth it. I just scroll past and move on,' she said. Brooklyn and Peltz tied the knot in April 2022. Months later, rumours surfaced that Peltz and Victoria had feuded during the wedding planning process. Their relationship allegedly soured when Peltz wore a custom wedding gown by Valentino instead of one by her mother-in-law's eponymous fashion label. While Peltz and the Spice Girls singer, 51, shut down rift rumours by repeatedly posting about each other on social media, tensions arose again last month when the model and her husband were a no-show at David Beckham's 50th birthday party. An insider told us that Peltz and Brooklyn made no attempt to attend the retired soccer player's star-studded soirees amid a 'very sad' estrangement. Last week, sources claimed that Victoria stole the spotlight at their wedding. 'Before the song began, Marc Anthony asked Brooklyn to come to the stage, and then announced, 'The most beautiful woman in the room tonight, come on up…Victoria Beckham!'' an insider told People. Peltz allegedly felt that Victoria 'ruined' their wedding and 'couldn't understand' her actions. The bride allegedly ran from the room in tears over the incident. A source close to the young couple told Page Six last week that Peltz is still 'deeply' haunted by the stunt to this day. 'Everyone in the room witnessed what happened,' the source said. 'The shock was palpable. It was deeply hurtful. Unfortunately, this wasn't a one-off. It's a pattern that still happens to this day.'

From mob wife to MAGA woman: TikTok trends are losing steam
As the latest deadline for TikTok to be sold or banned in the US approaches, we'll find out next month whether the app will continue to be a fixture on American phones or not. A decline in fashion fads conceived by TikTok creators (think 'cowboy core', 'office siren' and ' coastal grandma ') means consumers and retailers won't be as affected as they would have been a year or so ago, when such viral 'aesthetics' peaked on the video-sharing platform. But brands have their work cut out in responding to what's taken over since: lifestyle trends amplifying political, social and economic influences. After all, it's much harder to monetise 'recession core', the 'MAGA woman' look and 'underconsumption'. Super-speedy TikTok trends are best exemplified by the viral 'mob wife' look from early last year, characterised by big fur coats and equally voluminous hair. Retailers responded by stocking more animal print and bold lipstick. This was one of many fleeting fashions that emerged in the wake of the pandemic when TikTok really took off, and dressing for short videos replaced IRL outfits. It's not easy keeping up with so many flash-in-the-pan fads, from 'tomato girl' to 'pilates princess', particularly as the economy darkens. Fatigue has set in and consumers are now prioritising their personal style over every new 'core' and trend. That's trickier for brands to be part of but they are tapping in – for example, through bag charms, which fashion and luxury has embraced, and Labubu dolls, playing into the need to express one's identity through customisation. TikTok and Pinterest, the photo-pinning app, are also making valiant attempts to continue to shape fashion. 'Castlecore' and 'medievalcore' are among the few aesthetics to break through recently, though they reflect the broader 'pop girl' phenomenon in culture as they're inspired by singer Chappell Roan's adoption of chain-mail and headwear. (They also demonstrate, as Kayla Marci, who writes the Haute Garbage Substack, told me, that Gen Z's nostalgia has cycled through recent decades and is reaching ever further back.) We haven't really had a fashion narrative that's broken into the mainstream since mob wife. Yet of the more than 100 micro-trends tracked by market-intelligence company Trendalytics across social media, online search and e-commerce, 60 per cent are declining while only 20 per cent are gaining traction. Even though US users still spend more time per day on TikTok than Instagram, Facebook and Snapchat, according to Sensor Tower, the moment when the platform became the epicentre of trend forecasting, with users naming new aesthetics at a frenetic pace, has passed. We haven't really had a fashion narrative that's broken into the mainstream since mob wife.
