Bethenny Frankel HITS again back at Ed Kelce for calling her a ‘troll’ after talking bad about Travis and Taylor – “Sorry not sorry, use your intellect not insults, Swifties can come for me”
Former Real Housewives of New York City star Bethenny Frankel has clapped back at Travis Kelce’s after he called her a ‘troll’ for predicting that Travis’s relationship with Taylor Swift would end in disaster.
Frankel released a video speaking about the relationship, saying that Travis and Taylor seem to have clashing personalities and that they could be incompatible.
Ed Kelce, Travis’s father, saw the video and posted to Facebook asking, ‘Who TF is this troll?’
Frankel responded on an episode of her ‘Just B’ podcast, saying, ‘I do actually understand and admire a parent coming to their child’s defense, particularly when they’re asked about it.
‘I just wish he would’ve expressed an opinion versus just a verbal insult. As we teach our kids, it’s better to express ourselves than just criticize.’
The reality TV star also quipped: ‘Calling me a troll is amazing clickbait and yay for Travis Kelce’s dad.’
In a clip posted to Instagram, Frankel observed that Travis has a so-called ‘peacock’ personality. She argued that spelled trouble for that relationship because Swift is ‘certainly a peacock’ and that there ‘can only be one peacock in a relationship.’
In the aftermath of Ed’s ‘troll’ quip, Frankel argued that she ‘wasn’t even criticizing their relationship’. She added, ‘I was just saying, usually there’s only one peacock in a relationship.’
Frankel says she has experience dating one of these ‘peacocks’ – someone she defined as ‘very over the top, very loud and gregarious and needed to be the center of attention.’
‘I stand by that. I think that’s who Travis is,’ Frankel said of the her assessment.
She even went so far as to compare Ed’s clap-back at her to Travis yelling in the face of his head coach, Andy Reid, during Super Bowl LVIII.
Frankel alleged, ‘I did not mention [Travis] pushing his coach, which is a physical expression versus using your words and having a conversation. Which is kind of like what his dad did. He used an insult instead of using his intellect.’
She added that Ed’s choice ‘to get into it [with her] is also just funny’ and said ‘Sorry not sorry’ for the story making headlines.
‘Swifties can come for me, but I’m going to defend myself when I have said they’re in my Mount Rushmore of couples,’ Frankel said – referring to when she previously praised the couple.
‘I literally think he’s a peacock and there are two peacocks in this relationship and it usually doesn’t work. I’m allowed to think that,’ Frankel continued.
‘I don’t have to think they’re getting married and spending their lives together. I hope that they do if that’s what they want.’
