We wouldn’t be surprised…


Well, considering how tense things were at times on Bethenny Frankel’s reality TV show with her hubby ex, Jason Hoppy, their separation wasn’t the BIGGEST shock of the year.


But her former Real Housewives of New York City castmate, Alex McCord, didn’t want to be so honest when she was asked about the split.


Did someone learned how to be a little more reserved?


Might be a Housewives first!


Alex did speak up about the split, but stayed neutral as she said:



“Someone actually called to tell me about the news. There’s nothing to say other than I’m sorry it didn’t work out. I hope they can take care of all the details as painlessly as possible.”



Hmmm, sounds like Bethenny forgot to include details about the split in her holiday newsletter to Alex.


And here we thought all those Housewives friendships were so genuine.


Next you’ll tell us Brandi Glanville and Adrienne Maloof hate each other…oh wait…
