Ice cream and kisses! Bethenny Frankel takes her daughter Bryn out for a frozen treat and is thanked with a smooch
It hit a steamy 85F in New York on Thursday.
So it was little wonder that Bethenny Frankel stopped to treat her daughter Bryn to an Italian ice cream from a stand they passed on the walk home from school in the blisteringly hot city.
And the five-year-old thanked her doting mother with a sweet kiss as they both enjoyed a frozen dessert while sitting on a yellow bench in front of the stand.
Thanks mum: Bethenny Frankel received a sweet kiss from her little Bryn after she treated her little daughter to an Italian ice cream on the walk home from school in a sweltering New York on Thursday
The 44-year-old Skinnygirl entrepreneur had already cuddled with Bryn when she lifted her little girl up to choose her ice cream, kissing her on the side of her head.
And she took a couple of spoonfuls of the delicious confection when Bryn offered her the overflowing cup.
Bethenny looked her slender self in a grey vest that revealed the outline of her white bra underneath it, plus teeny black shorts and nude flat sandals with an ankle strap.

Eat up: The doting reality star fed her a mouthful of ice cream as they sat on a yellow bench
The brunette threw her little girl's pink school rucksack over one shoulder as she carried a cream blanket, a Whole Foods bag and her cream leather handbag in one hand while holding Bryn's hand with the other.
The little blonde, whose father is the reality star's ex-husband Jason Hoppy, wore a pale blue sleeveless frock with a pattern of white daisies and turquoise ballet flats. Her hair was pulled back into a messy pony tail.
Meanwhile, it's a busy time for Bethenny, who rejoined the cast of the Real Housewives Of New York City for its seventh season in April.

Mum's turn: Bryn fed Bethenny some of the multi-coloured treat that she balanced on her lap
The brunette originally appeared on the show from the first to the third season, before landing spin-offs Bethenny Getting Married? and Bethenny Ever After.
She got her start as a finalist on The Apprentice: Martha Stewart and told chef and Chopped star Marc Murphy on CNBC on Wednesday that reality TV had 'been a game changer'.
She explained: 'It’s really a double-edged sword. Sometimes it’s like making a deal with the devil. This is the life we chose, you can’t start complaining when it’s not good when you’ve ridden this amazing ride.
'I mean, I was completely broke when I started the show so it’s been a complete and utter mind blow.'
Chowing down: The pair had to eat quickly before the ice cream melted in the heat
Juggling act: Bethenny threw Bryn's pink school rucksack over her shoulder as she clasped a cream blanket, a Whole Foods bag and her green leather handbag in one hand and held the little blonde's hand with the other
