During Sonja Morgan’s event to celebrate her Latino Show magazine cover, an eyewitness dished that Bethenny was “dodging the paparazzi outside, refusing all the interviews, refusing to be photographed.”
The source continued, “She was even giving the Bravo team problems when they were trying to set up shots, too. The Bravo team’s job is to set up conversations and to direct and create the action to some degree. So Bethenny was trying to stonewall them every chance she’d get.”

When producers reportedly asked the reality star to look through the magazine with her costars she said, “I’m not an actress,” and refused to film the scene.

Producers are also disappointed with the lack of drama Bethenny is bringing on-camera. “Producers brought Bethenny back to spice things up, and she is acting like some sort of advice guru,” a source told RadarOnline.com. “It’s obvious to everyone that Bethenny is only using the show to rehab her public image which took a huge hit after her divorce proceedings from estranged husband, Jason Hoppy began.”
While Frankel isn’t getting along with producers, she’s reportedly butting heads with her costars as well! According to RadarOnline.com, Bethenny snagged a million-dollar paycheck to return to the show. “Ramona Singer is absolutely outraged that Bethenny is making a million dollars, especially after her failed talk show,” a source told the website. “But Bethenny wasn’t going to come back earning less than any of the housewives, and held out to be paid the most.”
