#RHONY Bethenny Frankel Sends eBay a Cease and Desist!

Bethenny Frankel is calling foul on an eBay commercial, claiming that her name and likeness were used without her permission.

New legal docs reveal the Real Housewives of New York star alleging that her image was swiped mid-negotiation — from an agency looking to run a spot featuring clips from the popular Bravo show. Bethenny’s rep claimed that no deal had been reached — but that the video still went live on “multiple media outlets” last week.



Bethenny has slammed eBay with a cease and desist warning, ordering them to pay up, or pull the spot. The Skinnygirl mogul is also demanding back pay for the week that it aired — even if they yank the clip immediately. 

The spot features Bethenny and her co-star, Dorinda Medley — who briefly shared the silly spoof on her Instagram page — evidently in the dark about the legal drama.

The Real Housewives of New York airs Wednesday nights, at 9:00 p.m. ET, on Bravo.
