Would you EVER force your personal assistant & wedding planner to hold up your gown while you pee in a bucket?
Bethenny Frankel did! When the 6-months-pregnant bride-to-be realized she’d have to wait 35 minutes for her wedding ceremony to end before she could pee, she made the drastic decision to do it in a bucket.
“The baby’s head is on my bladder,” a freaked-out Bethenny explained on the July 8 episode of Bethenny Getting Married? She was all done up in her gown with her make up ready when nature called. But she couldn’t get to the bathroom — that would mean having to walk by ALL her wedding guests!
Instead, Julie Plake, her personal assistant, reached up Bethenny’s gown to pull down her underwear while Shawn Rabideau, her wedding planner, held it up.
“I realized I was inches away form her cooch looch,” Shawn recalled. Meanwhile, Bethenny put her finger in a glass of water to help coach the pee pee out!
Can you believe? (A) that she did this at all, and (B) That she had it videotaped and then ran it on her show?
Would you ever?!

Bethenny did not FORCE them to help her. She did not suggest the bucket.She feels she signed up for the show….and THEY chose to show it…not her. She did not ask them to leave yes…but I think it added to the show to let you see the reality of things. There may be more than one bride who has had to do something like this!
Get off your high horse.

honestly, I think her doing this on tv shows the viewers that she is normal..she’s pregnant and getting married, the woman had to pee!! I would have done the exact same thing. I wouldn’t have cared what people said, just like people have babies on tv..it’s graphic, but people still watch it because it’s something that’s natural. A pregnant woman peeing is natural..leave her alone.

GROSS IT MAY BE. HOWEVER, SHE HAD TO GO. IF YOU HAVEN’T BEEN PREGNANT YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO HAVE A BABY PUSHING ON YOUR BLADDER. EMERGENCY!!!! ITS OK BETHENNY. SHE OBVIOUSLY DOEN’T CARE WHAT PEOPLE THINK. I HOLD HER WITH MORE RESPECT TO HAVE SHOWN HER BEING DOWN TO EARTH.
