Bethany Frankel says a man approached her in New York and punched her in the face… and it appears this is part of a worrying trend plaguing women in the Big Apple.
Here’s the thing… a fashion student recently posted a video on TikTok where she revealed that a man punched her in the face while she was walking down the street – randomly and for no reason.

In the clip, the student says she was just looking at her phone – minding her own business – when a guy came up and hit on her – which she says her friends told her was becoming the norm for many women around the world. the city.
Well, it looks like BF is one of those women too… because she left a now-deleted comment on the student’s post, revealing the exact same thing that happened to her several months ago while she was filming a video of a bakery in the Upper West Side. , publicly unknown until now.
By the way… we’re told Bethenny didn’t delete her own comment — even though it no longer appears on the post. Anyway… the thing is, Bethenny says this happened to her too.
It turns out that many women are telling similar stories on social media. Countless women have turned to TikTok in recent months to tell their stories and warn other women. They all have the same thread…being randomly punched by men, often in broad daylight.
One particularly harrowing story has taken over social media… with a woman claiming a man smashed what she says was a bag full of bottles and cans against her face, leaving her injured. Basically… it seems very dangerous for women in New York City right now – with alleged violence emerging sporadically… and without any provocation.
If Bethenny’s shared experience is any indication, fame isn’t protecting women from violence. Scary stuff indeed.
