The secret's out: Bethenny Frankel just surprised her fans with a major move
Miami-Dade County: Welcome your newest famous resident.
Bethenny Frankel.
The 'Real Housewives of NYC' alum made the unexpected announcement on Instagram Thursday that she officially moved to the Magic City.
'Excited to share this with you,' read the 54-year-old's somewhat cryptic caption. 'It's been a concept for a while but personal and private circumstances have made this the healthiest life choice.'
Florida will be Frankel's 'primary and permanent residence.'
It's unclear where her new apartment is exactly, but the 'Shark Tank' star definitely has an ocean view as evidenced by the stunning scenery behind her in the Insta clip.
'Something has arisen that made this the best and healthiest for myself and my daughter,' said the Bravolebrity, who shares custody of the teen with ex husband Jason Hoppy.
Frankel — a self made millionaire thanks to her Skinnygirl brand — will also maintain homes in NYC and the Hamptons. Come summertime, those places will come in handy.
The diehard New Yorker's relocation to the Sunshine State isn't as surprising as the casual observer might believe. Though a Queens native, the reality star attended the Pine Crest School in Fort Lauderdale, graduating in 1988. She also has been visiting the 305 for years, attending ritzy events , shopping at discount stores and stepping out on dates (beau du jour is reportedly businessman Tom Villante).
So what's the tea? What exactly has 'arisen?'
Page Six reports that the change in zip code is to benefit her daughter who turns 15 next month.
'Bryn is Bethenny's top priority, and the decision to move to Florida was all about supporting her,' a source told the outlet. 'The move reflects Bryn's academic and athletic goals and was made with her physical and emotional well-being front and center.'
Burning question for Andy Cohen: Will Frankel become a part of the Miami franchise of Real Housewives now? We are so sure she could shake things up, and we mean that in the very best way.
Frankel was already feeling the love from at least one 'RHOM' castmate.
'I kept your secret,' wrote OG Lisa Hochstein in the comments section. 'I'm glad it's out. Welcome!'

Taime Downe has broken his silence. The Faster Pussycat frontman opened up about his fiancée Kimberly Burch's death for the first time since she plunged over the side of a cruise ship following an alleged argument with the '80s glam rocker on March 2. 'It's a roller coaster,' Downe, 60, said during SiriusXM's 'Trunk Nation With Eddie Trunk' on Friday, May 30. 'I'm hanging in there. I'm just taking it a day at a time.' 6 Faster Pussycat frontman Taime Downe has broken his silence on his fiancée's mysterious cruise ship death. Instagram/Kimberly Burch 'And everybody thought going out on the road and doing what I do and being with my family in my band would be good for me,' he continued. 'So I've taken their advice and I'm doing this. We're going out with some cool bands.' Downe and Burch, 56, were onboard a Royal Caribbean ship called Explorer of the Seas for an '80s-themed cruise where Faster Pussycat was performing alongside other bands like Men at Work, Squeeze and Tiffany. But on the first night of the seven-day voyage, Burch fell to her death while the ship was out to sea between Miami and the Bahamas. 6 Kimberly Burch plunged over the side of a cruise ship on March 2. burchkimberly/Instagram Burch's mother told TMZ that the tragedy happened shortly after her daughter and Downe got into a 'heated' argument and that Burch had been drinking shortly before falling overboard. Downe added that his fiancée's shocking death was 'alcohol and prescription-related' during his interview with Trunk. 'So I blame alcohol and pills on it,' he said. 'There's no way I'd touch booze. For me, that's just completely disgusting in my brain, you know what I mean?' 6 Burch shared this social media post shortly before plunging overboard. Instagram/Kimberly Burch 'So I've got some hatred for booze, 'cause I loved the hell out of Kimberly, and it was just hard to deal with,' the 'House of Pain' singer continued. 'We spent basically nine years together.' 'This is just heavy s–t,' Downe added, 'and I'm just looking forward to playing shows and having fun.' While the 'Poison Ivy' vocalist said that 'it is what it is,' he also admitted that it's 'good to talk about it' three months after his fiancée's disappearance and death. 6 The couple was together for around six years before Burch's shocking disappearance and death. Instagram/Kimberly Burch 'It's good to talk about it. It's good to talk about it with my friends, my close-knit friends,' he said. 'But I don't really wanna talk about it with strangers, 'cause it doesn't seem appropriate.' 'It is what it is,' Downe added. A video of the incident, which has since been obtained by investigators, reportedly showed Burch climbing the cruise ship's railing before plunging off. It is still unclear whether she purposely jumped or accidentally fell. 6 'I loved the hell out of Kimberly,' Towne said of his late fiancée. Instagram/Kimberly Burch Her body was never recovered.

Former DreamWorks CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg co-leads $15.5M Series A for AI video ad platform
DreamWorks co-founder Jeffrey Katzenberg's venture fund WndrCo co-led a $15.5 million Series A round for Creatify, an AI video ad platform. Creatify's AdMax platform uses AI to quickly generate dozens of video advertisements, which are geared toward social media marketing -- AdMax analyzes high-performing social video campaigns on apps like TikTok and Instagram to shape its output. Tech industry titans have been bullish on AI advertising. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg recently spoke about his ambitions to automate all of advertising with an AI ad tool, which would test thousands of ads on Facebook, Instagram, and Threads users. This degree of automation may seem drastic, but it is not a foregone conclusion. While Katzenberg has been an entertainment industry executive since before DVDs were invented, his bets are not always correct -- he was also the founder of Quibi, the short video platform that infamously raised $1.75 billion and shut down six months later.
