Bethenny Frankel just went public with a new man.

Days after making their public debut at the 2026 Global Champions Arabians Tour in Miami Beach last Friday, the 55-year-old Real Housewives of New York City alum, who moved to Florida last year, was confirmed to be dating Miami-based financial adviser Shane L. Campbell.

“Bethenny is the happiest she’s ever been and is fully in her intentional dating era,” a source close to Bethenny told Page Six on April 13.

During their outing on Friday, as Bethenny sported a light pink Selvi Dylan dress and Shane wore a blue patterned blazer and black pants, the new couple was said to have been “glued together from the moment they stepped into the VIP area of the horse event.”

“[They] stayed close from the early evening into the night — laughing, whispering and appearing completely wrapped up in each other,” the insider shared, adding that Bethenny “was in a great mood.”

According to the source, Bethenny did her best to “mix and mingle” with other attendees, but she spent most of her time with Shane.

As RHONY fans may have seen, Bethenny spoke of her new man on Instagram on Sunday, sharing that after their initial meeting, “it became a little bread-crumby” and she “shut it down.” Then, after reconnecting “months later,” he reached back out and “drove an hour and a half” to spend time with her.

From there, Bethenny and her suitor, whom she did not mention by name, enjoyed “a five-hour date,” followed by “several” more dates, “which were very planned out, and very intentional, and very chivalrous.”

Continuing on, Bethenny, who shares 15-year-old Bryn with ex-husband Jason Hoppy, described her new partner as “romantic” and “deliberate” as she told her social media fans that “there are still amazing men out there.”

“Do not settle. Do not accept breadcrumbs. Do not accept low-hanging fruit and low lifts of just, like, checking in with you and giving you the news and the weather,” she stated. “A man has to have a plan to move the ball forward and show you exactly how they feel about you.”
