AceShowbiz - Bethenny Frankel, 54, turned heads as she was seen enjoying a beach day in Miami while flaunting a dazzling ring on her engagement finger. The sighting has sparked rumors that she may be engaged to her new boyfriend, Tom Villante.
Frankel and Villante, the CEO of vacation rental payment platform YapStone, first made their relationship public when they walked the red carpet together at the "Yellowstone" premiere earlier in November. Frankel followed it up with a video on Instagram showing Villante cozying up to her in a blanket and tending to a fire.
Frankel had previously been engaged to real estate investor Paul Bernon for six years, but their engagement ended in May. According to sources, they reportedly split in March due to their contrasting personalities. Frankel initiated the breakup, citing a need for change.
Bernon later moved on with Olivia Culpo's sister, Aurora, but their relationship lasted only two months after Frankel was upset to hear Aurora discuss their relationship on her podcast, given the timing and level of commitment involved.
Frankel has kept the $1 million engagement ring from Bernon. It remains to be seen whether the new ring on Frankel's finger signals an engagement to Villante. The couple has yet to officially confirm or deny their engagement status.
