This housewife had tidied up her legal docket.
The assault case against Kelly Bensimon, one of the newer Real Housewives of New York City, has been adjourned after her accuser failed to show for a hearing Monday. The charges will be dropped in 6 to 12 months if she performs two days of community service and stays out of trouble.
Bethenny's biggest fan, who despite her reality-TV moniker is divorced from photographer Gilles Bensimon, was arrested in March for allegedly hitting ex-boyfriend Nicolas Stefanov in the face.
"The truth has been exposed and the charges against me will be dismissed," Bensimon said in a statement Monday. "It is now time to continue to focus on raising my beautiful girls, pursuing my career, and raising awareness against domestic violence. "
Stefanov failed to show up for a hearing in March and the judge warned that if he didn't show up on June 8, the case would be dismissed.
He didn't, and it was.
