Bethenny Frankel has made no secret about her bitterness regarding their marriage and divorce proceedings.

But her estranged husband Jason Hoppy is keeping own sentiments private for the sake of their daughter Bryn, RadarOnline reported.

The 41-year-old businessman, who Radar's source says is 'baffled' by Bethenny's behaviour, took their three-year-old daughter for a fun spin on her bicycle in New York on Friday... still wearing his wedding ring.

Jason and Bryn were both full of smiles as the doting father helped his daughter stay upright on her pink bicycle.

Jason sported a checked shirt, khaki shorts and flip flops for the fun outing, as well as a large red daddy-practical backpack.

The main accessory of note was his wedding ring, which Jason has not removed despite divorce proceedings.

Her father remained attentive and protective at all times, making sure the little one did not take a tumble.

Jason held onto her bicycle to keep her steady as well as keeping an eye on any oncoming foot traffic, maintaining such patience with the youngster.

SkinnyGirl mogul Bethenny recently told People magazine that she had a feeling that tying the knot with the businessman was a bad idea from the off-set.

‘In my marriage, I made a mistake. It is what it is. I made the wrong choice.' she said.

The reality star, who is about to launch her own talk show, continued with a slew of negative sentiments about her marriage to Jason.

Previously, Bethenny has spoken openly other media outlets such as The Ellen DeGeneres Show and Good Day New York - a very public airing of the estranged couple's dirty laundry.

RadarOnline's source has said that Jason was 'stung' by her comments, as one would be - many of them have been personal and hurtful.

Despite that, Jason still 'refuses to speak negatively about Bethenny in the press', specifically for the sake of their young daughter.'

He is 'baffled by Bethenny’s decision to go public with such personal sentiments about the ongoing divorce proceedings, and just wishes she would keep this out of the press,' the source said.

Jason seems like a true family man, raised well, and taking the high road for the sake and well-being of his daughter, while Bethenney uses Brynn as a pawn to get what she wants. I really hope Jason finds someone nice to settle down with and has a happy life, he deserves it.

Bethany is a nasty, vindictive woman. Look at how she bullied Kelly and got people to hate Jill. I was never fooled by her sob stories.

This is a good man. I hope he finds a good woman. - ms2020 , L.A.-----------------------------Oh, dear. No he's NOT a good man. I feel bad for you that you can't see that.

This guy. Thinks he's got everyone fooled that he's an angel. He's an ass. - chi123 , Chicago, United States---------------------------------------------Oh, you got that right! But I guess you and I are the only ones keen and perceptive enough to see that Jason is a complete tool and a opportunistic parasite, and if he had a shred of decency, he'd moved out of that apartment and stop torturing the mother of his daughter. The commenters on these thread that are on his side are utter blathering idiots!

Bethenny your victim card has been declined! Everyone knows you're a cold heartless nut job who only cares about yourself and your business! Take notes from Jason who was clearly deserves a holiday or parade for putting up with your crap!

Bethenny whined and complained about her unorthodox upbringing, her lack of a relationship with her parents, the lack of a healthy homelife while she was young. She could have had everything she missed in her youth with Jason but she is too screwed up and self involved to realize it.

Jason won't discuss his marriage and Bethenny can't shut up. This woman really plays the victim well. Nothing is ever her fault.

Bethany says she felt like she was broken when she was with Jason all the time and abnormal. Life with Jason was normal and she is not used to normal so normal must be abnormal to her. Bottom line she is use to drama and thus craves and creates it. Thankfully brynn has Jason and his parents to give her a normal life and balance out the crazy time she spends with Bethany.
