Though Frankel "initiated" the split, she said it's still "embarrassing" and "rough."

“Being portrayed as the jilted ex who had been upgraded from — that my ex had moved on from me with a younger woman — and that it regurgitated the continuous narrative that he is a very under-the-radar person who had now gotten serious with someone,” she admitted. “When, ironically, I was the very-under-the-radar person.”

Frankel then said Culpo shouldn't have displayed her new romance just yet.

“If you’re the new woman in a relationship you need to tread lightly and be cautious about whoever the woman before you was because we’ve all been in both positions,” Frankel stated. “I think by sharing all the details of your new relationship, you’re disrespecting the last relationship.”
