This Real Housewife Traveled To Puerto Rico With Four Private Planes Full Of Supplies And EMTs
A Real Housewife doing some real good.
This is Bethenny Frankel — Skinnygirl mogul, former talk show host, and current Real Housewife of New York City.
In the wake of the devastation caused by Hurricane Maria over the past two weeks, Bethenny traveled to Puerto Rico to help out — and brought FOUR private planes filled with supplies and EMTs along for the ride.
“This is a forgotten island,” Bethenny told People. “People have been living on their roofs for 13 days. It is like nothing I have ever seen."
The chartered planes were filled with 20,000 pounds of goods — including food, water, medical supplies, insulin, diapers, and gift cards. Once landed, Bethenny helped distribute the supplies to local communities in need.
In a video posted to Instagram, the reality star noted how dire the situation in Puerto Rico is, and shot back at reports that victims were receiving all the help they need.

"They're not getting the help," she said. "Whatever anybody's telling us, they're not getting the help at all."
