"I don’t think it’s working for her," Zarin told us earlier today from her New York apartment. "I don’t think she should be on the show. It's not that I think we should throw anybody off, it's just that I think if I were her, I would not do the show again. I would go back to anonymity and spend the next year trying to repair my reputation. What’s more important to her: her reputation or fame?"
Clearly, Bensimon's back-and-forth bickering with costar—and Zarin BFF—Bethenny Frankel has not helped her image. And according to Zarin, it doesn't sound like the two will come to any friendly agreement anytime soon...
"They’re not friends," Zarin said. "They never were. They never will be. They’re sophisticated girls, so they’ll be polite to each other when they see each other at Bravo events. They’re not going to pull each others' hair out, but there's definitely ice cubes in the room."
Bensimon's rep didn't comment on her future on the show but did say, "Jill is entitled to her opinion. Kelly had a wonderful time on the show."
The gals recently taped their upcoming reunion show for Bravo. The get-together got so heated and full of drama that producers decided to expand it from an hourlong special to a two-hour event over two nights. "There were a lot of liars at the table," Zarin said. "Ramona—liar! Kelly—liar! LuAnn—baby liar."
Zarin has also been busy as a spokesmom for Kodak's new Mother's Day campaign that encourages people to stay close through photography. In fact, Zarin's Mother's Day has turned into a Housewives affair. "Bethenny’s always invited to be with my family on holidays—especially Mother’s Day," Zarin said. "She does have a mother, but she doesn’t spend time with her. She hasn’t seen her for many years. It’s sort of a sore issue that I don’t discuss with her. My mother has sort of openly adopted Bethenny."
