"Real Housewife" Charged with Assaulting Boyfriend

Incase you had already forgotten about the Real Housewives of New York City, the newest one, Kelly Bensimon, is fighting her way to headlines! The NY Post reports that the "6-foot-tall, 40-year-old former model, horse fancier and one-time marathon runner got into a fight last week with her boyfriend, 30-year-old Nick Stefanov, and clocked him, giving him a black eye and opening a blood-gushing gash on his left cheek." Stefanov fled and reported the beating to the 5th Precinct, landing Bensimon with a misdemeanor third-degree assault and a March 31st court date (she's currently denying the charges). The two recently engaged lovebirds now have a restraining order that prevents them from contacting each other, but Stefanov seems to want to get back together with the "housewife" even though she's been physically abusive in the past—he did say, "My injuries are worse than Rihanna's - and Chris Brown was charged with two felonies."

Actually, quite a few men would pay to be beaten by a 6' former model. Maybe not that badly, but a little leather, a whip, a few chains and she'd have a viable recession-resistant business.

Does she accept Euros?

Ease up on the woman. She has at least two or three months until she fades into the sunset. Come on now, how many movie casting directors need a six foot tall 40 year old bitch on there set?

He was given fair warning - like monkeys and dogs, she will bare all her teeth as if to say "I am threatened, back down or I will attack you like a pitbull."

What a puss.

Needs to be more like Chris Brown.

Bensimon has some personal issues. You can see them on Housewives of New York. The episode I saw she was prancing around like she was 15 when she is actually 40. She needs to get over it before the 30-year old realizes there are women out there that are less violent, less angry, and carry less baggage.

Maybe she gives him anal.

This just confirms that ALL of the "Real NYC Housewives" are trash.

The Edge

So she went Chris Brown on his ass.

Nice.

Snoopy

And all that Nick said to her was, "You can't wear my ballet slippers around the house. They'll get scuffed."

This Big Bitch needs to chill the Fuck Out and sit down somewhere Fo' she get KTFU!! Straight-Up Holmes!LOL!!

Snoopy

Her next film will be "Revenge of the Amazons!"

Beat up by a girl, eh? I mean, seriously?

Mags

Seeing that "housewife" on just one episode convinced me to wear SPF 30 or higher all the time. Seriously, leather face is not cool.

Snoopy

That's what you get when you try to fool around with a woman ten years older and 4" taller than you. Tell her to pick on someone her own size next time.
