Bethenny Frankel’s ex-fiancé, Paul Bernon, appears to have moved on from their relationship. Recently, Bernon was seen getting cozy with Aurora Culpo, the older sister of model Olivia Culpo. According to a source from Deuxmoi, the two were spotted making out at The ‘Quin House in Boston.
In addition to their Boston sighting, photos obtained by the gossip site show Bernon and Aurora sitting next to each other on a boat cruise along the coast of Rhode Island. This cruise is part of the celebrations for Olivia Culpo’s wedding to San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey.
Aurora Culpo, 35, and Paul Bernon, 45, were dressed smartly for their outing. Bernon sported navy shorts and a baby blue polo, while Aurora wore a floral print baby doll sundress. Another snapshot captured the pair chatting in a parking lot, with Bernon looking serious and Aurora smiling at him.
Representatives for Bernon, Aurora, and Frankel did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
This public display of affection comes just three months after news broke of Bernon and Frankel’s breakup. The pair, who got engaged in 2021, had been together for six years. Although neither has publicly confirmed the split, a source told Us Weekly that the relationship “just wasn’t going to work” due to their different personalities. Bernon is described as an “under-the-radar kind of guy,” which contrasted with Frankel’s high-profile lifestyle.
Frankel seemed to hint at the breakup when she posted on Instagram about her “new summer, new home [and] new chapter” last month. She included snaps from her new estate in the Hamptons, which she purchased for $5.45 million in October 2023, calling it her “#happyplace.”
The “Real Housewives of New York City” alum and Bernon first started dating in 2018, shortly after Frankel finalized her lengthy divorce from Jason Hoppy, with whom she shares a daughter.
While Frankel is moving forward with her new chapter, Bernon seems to be doing the same with Aurora Culpo. The Culpo family is currently in the spotlight due to Olivia’s upcoming wedding to Christian McCaffrey, adding more public interest to Aurora’s budding romance with Bernon.
The Culpo sisters, Olivia and Aurora, have always been close, often sharing their lives on social media. Olivia, a former Miss Universe, has a significant following and frequently posts about her family, including her sisters. Aurora, who is also a content creator, has been gaining attention for her own social media presence.
As for Bernon, he is known for his work in the business and entertainment industries. He co-founded the Rugby Football Club Los Angeles last year and has been involved in various business ventures over the years.
The new relationship between Bernon and Aurora Culpo is still in its early stages, but it has already garnered significant attention. Fans of both Frankel and the Culpo sisters are curious to see how this new romance will unfold.
Bethenny Frankel, meanwhile, continues to focus on her various business ventures and philanthropic efforts. She has been vocal about her commitment to helping those in need, particularly through her BStrong initiative, which provides disaster relief and support to communities in crisis.
As both Frankel and Bernon move forward with their lives, it remains to be seen how their paths will continue to evolve. For now, it appears that Bernon has found a new connection with Aurora Culpo, and the two seem to be enjoying their time together.
