Martha Stewart is refusing to let an old grudge die. Bethenny Frankel appeared on the mogul’s version of The Apprentice back in 2005. Unfortunately, she did not win. Moreover, Martha did not seem to care for Frankel. Now, she is snubbing Frankel’s latest endeavor, but what did Martha do? Keep reading for more details on what has gone down between the two.
Bethenny Frankel May Have Gotten Her Karma
Over the last several months, RHONY alum Bethenny Frankel has been called out for being ungrateful. She has been sent free merchandise or been gifted treats by small businesses, but refuses to acknowledge the brands. It seems the Skinnygirl founder does this out of spite, forgetting that she was once the little guy attempting to sell her goods in the supermarket. There is a sense of entitlement, and Frankel is repeatedly being called out for her poor behavior. She is also always flaunting her love for “supermodel” foods and chicken salad all over social media.
So much so that she just launched her own cafe based on her light bites, including this chicken salad. However, while this has been going on, Frankel decided to ask Martha Stewart to participate in her viral Chicken Salad Olympics challenge. Unfortunately for Frankel, Martha ignored the request and paid no mind to it. Per an insider, this is dimming the sparkle, which may be exactly what Martha intended:
“In Hollywood, the fastest way to kill a publicity stunt is to ignore it. That’s exactly what Martha has done.”
While Bethenny Frankel was on The Apprentice: Martha Stewart, Martha referred to the chef as a “pest.” This broke Frankel, but she did keep going, and it paid off. Yet, Martha clearly wants nothing to do with any chicken salad Olympics or challenges.

Bethenny Makes Her Chicken Salad Statement
Regardless of what Martha Stewart does or does not do, Bethenny Frankel is keeping her chicken salad alive. As aforementioned, she just opened her own Supermodel Cafe in East Quogue. It features her beloved chicken salad and has gotten rave reviews. Moreover, other chefs have agreed to join in on the Olympics, such as Cat Cora, Rocco DiSpirito, and Billy Durney. Yet, Frankel really wanted to seal the deal with Martha and is bummed she did not jump right in. Maybe she will surprise everyone and be a part of it in the long run.
