Not too long ago, rumors surfaced that Bethenny Frankel of The Real Housewives of New York City and Alex Rodriguez of the New York Yankees were an item after the latter celebrity’s much-publicized breakup from his wife. If it sounded too crazy to be true, that’s because it was. The pairing was apparently just a rumor that Bethenny brushed off with her usual brand of fast-talking self-deprecating humor. However, in a quirky turn of meta-events, the new batch of rumors allege that A-Rod was so taken with Bethenny’s response to the situation that he actually got in touch with her, and now the two are plowing cakes for reals.
Who knows if any of this is true, but I think we can all agree that A-Rod would make quite the fascinating addition to the Housewives franchise. Watching Jill Zarin dote on him and Bethenny like a mother hen would be beyond entertaining. In fact, the only thing that could possibly top that would be Kelly Bensimon’s frustrated jealousy as she’d be forced to watch from the sidelines with her significantly less famous (and therefore important) boytoy Max. Crossing fingers that rumor is fact…
