Bethenny Frankel 'blocked from taking Bryn on work trip to Australia' as custody fight with Jason Hoppy heats up

They are both desperate to retain custody of their only child.
And now Bethenny Frankel has been blocked from taking daughter Bryn on a trip to Australia by her estranged husband.
In the latest twist in their increasingly vicious break-up businessman Jason Hoppy is insisting Bryn remain at home with him while her mother is away.

 

Mommy time: Bethenny takes her daughter, Bryn, to school in the rain in New York on Monday morning; she has been blocked from taking the two-year-old overseas by her estranged husband Jason Hoppy

A source revealed that Bethenny was thinking of going to court in order to win the right to take Bryn overseas.
'He [Hoppy] doesn’t think it’s good for their little girl to travel half way around the world with her mom on a business trip,' the source told Radar.
'How much time will Bethenny actually be able to spend with Bryn because it’s definitely a working trip?'
The Skinny Girl supremo was seen braving the rain as she pushed her two-year-old to preschool in a pushchair on Monday.
Later that day Jason arrived to collect his daughter, carrying her home as they dodged the rain under an umbrella.

 

 

 

Planning to fight: Bethenny is said to be considering appealing to the courts if Jason continues to block her plans to take Bryn overseas
Bethenny, 42, announced that she and Jason were separating just two days before Christmas after three years of marriage.
At the time she said in a statement: ‘It brings me great sadness to say that Jason and I are separating.  
‘This was an extremely difficult decision that as a woman and a mother, I have to accept as the best choice for our family.’

Their courtship and subsequent marriage was the subject of two spin off reality shows.
But Reality star Bethenny filed for divorce from her estranged husband earlier this month, making a long list of demands in her petition.
Hoppy responded by demanding almost exactly the same things in his counter petition.
As well as requesting full custody of Bryn, the businessman is reportedly also asking that the entrepreneur pay for both his and their daughter’s medical and dental insurance and any other related expenses.
