Bethenny Frankel, the ever-candid star of The Real Housewives, is making waves with her passionate defense of OnlyFans creators. On the August 29 episode of her popular podcast, Rants, the 54-year-old reality TV alum didn't hold back her views. Frankel compared OnlyFans to a store that might not appeal to everyone, but that doesn’t mean it shouldn’t exist. "Not every store is for you," she stated, reminding listeners that if something isn't to their taste, they simply aren’t obligated to engage with it.
“If you’re not harming anyone else, if you’re not really doing anything that’s, like, extremely harmful to yourself, like, how is it my business what someone else does with their body, with their life, with their clothing?”
Frankel didn't shy away from calling out society's tendency to judge. “We’ve just always been like this. We’ve always been so judgmental,” she remarked. Drawing from her own experiences, the SkinnyGirl mogul shared how she’s often criticized for her candid social media posts. Whether she’s in pajamas or sans makeup, Frankel is unapologetically herself, and she encourages others to embrace the same freedom.
Using a humorous touch, she recounted how some might even question her sanity based on her laid-back online presence. Yet, she stands firm in her belief that everyone should be free to make personal choices without undue scrutiny.
Frankel's message is clear: live unapologetically and let others do the same. She emphasized that people shouldn’t have to conform to societal expectations or apologize for their choices. "I think as I get older, I'm just getting more unapologetic and allowing other people to be more unapologetic," she explained. For Frankel, it’s all about personal freedom and living life on one’s own terms.
In a world quick to judge, Bethenny Frankel’s words are a refreshing call to let people be. Whether it’s about what you wear, how you look, or your choice to join OnlyFans, Frankel champions the notion that it’s nobody’s business but your own.
