Bethenny Frankel blasted for posting bikini photos of 13-year-old daughter: ‘So inappropriate’

Reality TV star Bethenny Frankel was slammed on social media for sharing bikini photos of her 13-year-old daughter while on vacation.

The mum-shamers are mentioning it all.

Bethenny Frankel was ridiculed for sharing bikini photos of her 13-year-old daughter Bryn on social media.

The former Real Housewives of New York City star posted a carousel of snaps showing the mother-daughter duo enjoying the white sandy beaches of Turks and Caicos on Thursday.

“Two jerks in TURKS. After a hardworking year, mixed with some medical issues, this trip was an impulse decision and I think we made a good choice …” Frankel, 53, captioned the post.

She added, “New Year’s resolutions incoming and being crafted as we speak … xoxo.”

Former RHONY star Bethenny Frankel was on holiday in Turks and Caicos.

The star shared multiple photos of herself and her daughter beachside.

The former reality star shared several photos of herself rocking a colourful one-piece swimsuit with a matching long skirt and she accessorised with glitzy Gucci sunglasses and a straw fedora.

She also shared multiple snaps of Bryn soaking up some sun while wearing a light-blue bikini — angering several of Frankel’s 3.3 million followers.

“Swimsuit shots of your daughter are so Inappropriate and exploitive [sic],” one critic commented on the post.

Frankel was blasted for posting bikini photos of Bryn.

Many of her followers argued it was ‘inappropriate’ to share bikini photos of the teen online.

“Please keep your beautiful daughter out of social media too young,” another person wrote.

“Love you but the internet is an awful place you outta remove Bryn’s bikini pic, although I fear it’s already too late,” someone suggested.

“Not sure the picture of your young daughter is a great idea considering some of the people on social media,” another agreed.

“Wonder what her dad thinks of bethenny posting pics like this on sm [social media],” a troll said of Frankel’s second ex-husband and Bryn’s father, Jason Hoppy.

“Too young. . Shouldn’t have post this pic of her daughter. She’s beautiful and well …. there’s too many creeps out there,” a netizen said.

“She’s only 13 might want to put some clothes on or on social media.!” one more said. “You should know better. There’s a bunch of whack goes [sic] out there and you’re just giving them lunch. I do wonder why you want her to grow up so fast.”

But several of the Skinnygirl founder’s fans rushed to her defence, explaining that she did nothing wrong by posting photos of her teenage daughter in swimwear.

“STOP THE MEAN COMMENTS. Bethenny is obviously a wonderful mother who wants to share and have memories of all the amazing experiences her and her daughter have,” one defender commented. “Including sitting in their house cuddling their dogs, cooking together. What she wears is totally appropriate.”

“Some of these comments though. people have a lot of nerve while sitting behind a screen,” a second person chimed in. “To me, these pics look like a mother and daughter bonding during a trip for the holidays. Bikinis aren’t allowed? Husbands have to be there?”

Mother and daughter were all rugged up in Aspen, where they spent Christmas.

Many of Frankel’s followers defended her on social media, calling her a good mum.

“Some of these comments – Jesus Christ the pearl clutching,” a third wrote. “Bryn isn’t 8 years old. She’s a teenager. Bethenny knows what’s best for her child. I can’t believe I’m commenting on a strangers IG, but here we are.”

“People always throwing hate. Why?! They are a dynamic mother/daughter duo,” a social media user said.

Several others gushed about how quickly Bryn was growing up, with one exclaiming, “Holy growth spurt! Not a little anymore.”

The Just B podcast host and her daughter had been vacationing in the snowy Aspen, Colorado, over Christmas break and clearly wanted some warmer weather ahead of New Year’s Eve.

Frankel’s rep did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
