Bethenny Frankel and boyfriend Paul Bernon are Instagram official.
Just days after opening up about a near-death medical scare she suffered in Boston, Massachusetts, the Real Housewives of New York City cast member traveled to the Dominican Republic, where she and Paul posed for their first social media photos together while attending a “healing retreat.”
“Bye bye Dominican Republic. What a beautiful country of beautiful people. #healingretreat #feliznavidad,” Bethenny wrote in the caption of the photos seen below.
Bethenny and Paul were first seen together publicly in October of this year, just two months after the Real Housewives of New York City star tragically lost her former boyfriend, Dennis Shields, to a reported drug overdose. A short time later, Bethenny and Paul were photographed after a lunch date at The Butcher’s Daughter restaurant in the Big Apple.
While the couple faced rumors of a potential split earlier this month after Bethenny suggested on Instagram that she was looking for someone “6’5 and single,” they quickly shut down those reports last week when Bethenny revealed Paul had saved her life after she ate fish.
