Reality star Bethenny Frankel has shared her thoughts on Real Housewives host Andy Cohen after Meghan Markle had to remind him that they had already met twice before she became a Royal.
Last month, the 54 year old appeared on an episode of Meghan’s podcast Archetypes and said it was “nice to meet her” while introducing himself.
But the Duchess of Sussex was quick to remind him that they’d actually met twice before in the past.

During the Archetrype podcast, Meghan told Andy: “It’s good to see you. I’ve met you before, [but] you’ll never remember it.”
After hearing her revelation, Andy was shocked he had previously met the former Suits star.
Explaining where they first met, Meghan told Andy that it took place at a Bravo event and added she was a huge fan of the Real Housewives executive producer and his talk show, Watch What Happens Live.
The Duchess then said: “I was so eager to be on your show, because I was such a Housewives fan at the time, and I just couldn’t get booked Andy!”

“So, thanks for being here with me,” she quipped.
Addressing the pair’s interaction, Bethenny remarked that it was a “gotcha” moment for Meghan.
Sharing her thoughts Bethany commented: “Andy Cohen went onto Meghan Markle’s Archetypes podcast which was interesting and a great get for him.
“I actually respected what she said in a kind of gotcha way to Andy.”
She continued: “Number one I respected that Meghan [Markle] said to Andy [Cohen] that we’ve met twice before. He said, ‘nice to meet you.’ And she said, ‘we’ve met twice before.’ And he was like, ‘Oh, my god am I being set up for failure now? God knows what I’ve done.'”

“She said, ‘I tried to go on your show and you wouldn’t have me on.’
“But it was a thing I could relate to where now you’re successful and your thinking about the people who told you that you would never make it. Ha… look at me now. There’s a little bit of that but also she’s not stupid.
“She might have felt that he might bring up the show and that she was declined and turned down.”
During their chat, Andy admitted that rejecting the former actress on his talk show was “the biggest blunder in the 13 years of the show,” adding that he’d now be “begging” for her to appear on the programme.
Commenting on this aspect too, Bethany said: “I don’t know why that would be a blunder for Watch What Happens Live.”
