'RHONY' Bethenny Frankel Heather Thomson Feud: Ladies Bring Season 7 Drama

Bring on the drama! With season seven of The Real Housewives of New York premiering one week from tonight, the ladies seem to be at each other's throats, especially the business savvy Bethenny Frankel and Heather Thomson. While Heather seemed to take over the role of the strong and sarcastic businesswoman that Bethenny left vacant when she departed the series after season three, it seems that now that Frankel has reclaimed her spot on the TV series, she and Thomson are far from friends.

According to Radar Online, Frankel is taking issue with Thomson over her business practices and claiming that she is a fraud.

An insider told that news site that Bethenny "did everything possible to make Heather look bad in front of the other ladies. According to Bethenny, Heather is a total fraud, and has had no success in the business world. Heather's status as one of the most popular cast members really irked Bethenny, and she set out to convince everyone that she was actually a phony mean girl."

However, while fans can't wait for Bethenny's return, they will definitely be seeing Heather and her butting heads a lot, as Thomson didn't seem to back down from any of their fights.

"Heather was warned that Bethenny had it out for her, and she fought back during filming," an insider explained to the news site. "She is not a shrinking violet and wasn't going to put up with Bethenny's antics."

It seems that Frankel has already claimed one of Thomson's besties as her own, as her and Carole Radziwill just hit the beach in Miami earlier this week. According to Reality Tea, the two were spotted hanging out together while catching some sun and lounging beachside.

The all-new season of The Real Housewives of New York premieres next week on Bravo.
