  • She is divorced from Jason Hoppy who she has daughter Bryn with

She has been on a string of dates lately from Los Angeles to New York, but it looks as if Bethenny Frankel may have finally found herself Mr Right.

The 44-year-old reality star is dating Modern Family actor Eric Stonestreet, according to a Tuesday report from E! News. 'They have been together for a few months already,' a source told the site. It was added they have spent time in New York City and at a Los Angeles Dodger game.

The Bravo star was quick to downplay the report on Twitter, however. 'Wow #somanyboyfriendssolittletime. How did I manage to be at a @Dodgers game & be in the Hamptons at the same time?!!! @ericstonestreet.' Soon after Stonestreet tweeted, 'Hey @Bethenny. Im a big fan. Can I get a follow?'

The two stars have been spending a lot of time together. They were seen cheek to cheek at the 2015 CAA Upfronts celebration party in New York City on May 11.

On May 20 they were side by side while grabbing lunch in Manhattan. Bethenny was nicely done up in a black leather jacket and red pumps while Eric did his best to look dapper in a button-down checked shirt and Mister Rogers grey sweater.

He also posted a photo with Frankel and Bravo star Carole Radziwill with the caption, 'Took a picture of these 2 randos today' also in the spring.

An eyewitness told E! News Stonestreet and Frankel 'attended the Los Angeles Dodger game last Monday when the Boys In Blue played the Philadelphia Phillies.'

In early July she tweeted, 'I'm very happy right now. It took me a minute but I'm here. Xo.'

The RHONY star also shared, 'I've really changed my mind on something: i think if u have a great textual banter, compatibility is likely.'

Another daytime date?: The 43-year-old Stonestreet posted a photo with Frankel and Bravo star Carole Radziwill with the caption, 'Took a picture of these 2 randos today'

'He's very different from his character on Modern Family. He's sharp and funny, but his humor is darker,' a source told E! 'He has an incredible relationship with his parents, especially his mom.'

Another source told UsWeekly on Tuesday, 'They have so much fun together. They're seeing where it goes.'

But a second source said they had not gone out of the 'friend zone' yet. 'This is so dumb. They are friends and have a lot of mutual friends in the same circle,' said the insider. 'They definitely are fond of each other and like each other but it’s not serious.'

Stay sharp like Bethenny in a Roland Mouret sheath

Skinny girl alert! Bethenny works the red carpet in a pbody skimming Roland Mouret dress.

Known for his impeccable tailoring, Roland Mouret created iconic structured dresses that were known by their first names like Galaxy and Moon. Just think of Victoria Beckham and you'll know what exactly Roland creates. He does a body better than milk. Look how everyone just looks long and leggy in this creation.

It's like lipo in a dress! With something so form fitting, we would dress it up with sky high nude stilettos, further elongating your look.

While this exact version that Bethenny is wearing isn't available online, we found a strapless version in the same colorway at Neiman Marcus that will be just as thinning. And think of it this way, it's less expensive than surgery.

However if you're looking for something with straps and that same futuristic feel, check out our suggestions below. The one from Bisou Bisou is a steal at under $50!

Yet another source told People, 'They are talking and they have been friends since they met at CAA upfront party.... He is in LA and she is in the Hamptons. They are hanging out. They are having fun and she likes his company.'

She is split from Jason Hoppy, who she has daughter Bryn, aged five, with. Bethenny's difficult divorce from Jason has been well documented over the past three years. 

And in March she split from Michael Cerussi III after a year-and-a-half of dating.

'I've been through a lot with exposing all my personal life so I'm not making any grand statements anymore but if there was somebody significant I would [say so],' the I Suck At Relationships So You Don't Have To author said just after she split from Cerussi.

In late May she was seen holding hands in NYC with 41-year-old Peter Chalif, a financial advisor at Citigroup Global Markets.

Eric was linked to actress Charlize Theron in 2012 but he joked that the rumours were 'making Halle Berry jealous.' In 2014 it was claimed he was dating TV host Samantha Armytage.
