Bethenny Frankel might play the I’m-just-like-you kind of personality on TV. But she really isn’t like any of us. She is way too damn rich. The Real Housewives of New York City star’s finances were released via new court documents in her ongoing feud with Jason Hoppy. According to Radar Online , when Frankel signed a pre-nuptial agreement with her soon-to-be ex-husband in 2010, her net worth was… $22,000,000. Twenty. Two. Million. Dollars. That’s a lot of freaking money! In addition to her fortune, her assets have a total value of $611,503. Her assets alone were a lot in comparison to Hoppy’s net worth of $475,000. Maybe that’s why Frankel was ordered to pay Hoppy $100,000 in expenses as they settle their divorce dispute, which is beyond ugly. Hoppy had $13,331 in his checking and savings accounts, and well as a joint account with Frankel that contained $3,774. The couple also had a joint brokerage account valuing at $248,774. Not long after they were married, Frankel made a sh!t ton of money when the sale of her Skinnygirl cocktail line to Fortune Brands’ Beam Global. She reportedly sold the brand for nine figures. NINE. Two years after her wedding, Frankel’s W2s listed annual earnings of $4,011,726; she listed checking and savings account that contained $282,207.

Bryn has a 529 college savings account with $149,187 deposited in it. This money was the result of a ton of hard work on Bethenny’s part. Before filing for divorce Frankel was the sole owner of six business and trademarks. With enough money to purchase two properties in Bridgehampton with cash money, Jason and Bethenny lived a life of luxury. Which he wishes to continue. The documents noted a particularly greedy bit of information about Hoppy. He wants the court to recognize this as his quality of life and is asking that Frankel foot the bill. Uh, no. The judge noted there are “disputes about whether their often luxurious travel constituted vacations (according to the husband) or work (according to the wife).” “It is difficult to make a precise finding as to the marital lifestyle,” the judge stated. Really, why are these frivolities even considered “a lifestyle”??? The battle for Bethenny’s fortune has been ongoing for two years. And it looks like she isn’t going to give up without a fight. Reports have claimed that Bethenny refuses to settle the divorce until he gives up the Tribeca apartment they once shared. View Slideshow: 44 Beautiful Photos of Bethenny Frankel
