Bethenny Frankel Wins a Round In Divorce Court

Bethenny Frankel has been paying ex (well, still current) husband Jason Hoppy around $26,000/mo; almost $12K in temporary alimony, and around $10K for child support. A judge just ruled that Frankel no longer has to shell out for spousal support now, or at any time in the future. The ruling reads as follows, as reprinted by E! News:


"We find that the broad and expansive language used by the parties in their agreement forecloses the husband from seeking any kind of spousal support, including temporary support. After acknowledging and representing that they are ‘fully capable of being self supporting,' the parties agreed to ‘waive any and all claims for spousal support and/or maintenance' ‘both now and in the future.'"

While she won on the spousal support, the issue of their Tribeca condo is still up for grabs. Even though Frankel laid out the cash for the property, it was purchased in a Trust that named both Frankel and Hoppy as beneficiaries, so that issue has been punted to later down the line. Frankel filed for divorce from Hoppy in January 2013, and the case is still not settled.
