Aurora Culpo reveals Bethenny Frankel's ex Paul Bernon DUMPED her over the phone

Aurora Culpo opened up about her relationship with ex-boyfriend Paul Bernon on Wednesday.

The 35-year-old sister of Olivia Culpo revealed on her Barely Filtered podcast that her ex called it quits with her over the phone earlier this month.

She explained: 'I would have preferred it to go longer, but unfortunately he dumped me... he called me and said 'It's not working.''

Despite feeling that her and the ex-fiancé of Bethenny Frankel were not a match, she still felt 'disappointed.'

The split comes just weeks after her older sister Olivia told the influencer she could not bring the producer to her wedding, causing family drama.

Recalling the moment her sister objected to her bringing a plus one, Aurora said: 'She just didn't know him yet and also [Paul] didn't want to come. We were joking and doing our banter thing and she said he was [my] flavor of the month. 

'I said, 'Don't say that. That's not fair [and] he's gonna listen to that.' She's like, 'That has nothing to do with him and everything to do with you.' 

When Paul later found out what Olivia said he ended his and the Rhode island native's relationship 'the next day.'

Aurora joked in the podcast saying, 'He was not the flavor of the month. He was the flavor of two months.' 

Even before they went their separate ways, Aurora's doubts began to build up.

'During the week before my sister's wedding, I was having feelings like, 'This relationship probably isn't for me. He doesn't want to have kids.' I didn't want that door to be closed,' she explained on the same podcast episode. 

'There were things, like, he doesn't want any more kids. I probably do want more kids,' the mother-of-two said. 

She explained further: 'Our communication style was so different. I'm not someone who can give space when someone feels hurt. Like, I need to talk about things right away. We're not compatible and I would have known that had I let the relationship move at a logical pace, but that's not how I operate.'

Aurora, however, is determined to move on and is 'back on the [dating] apps.'

Earlier this month, Paul's ex-fiancé Bethenny Frankel, 53, broke her silence on his relationship with Aurora, calling it 'embarrassing' and 'gutting.'

The Real Housewives of New York City vet said on her Just B podcast: 'Hearing about your ex-fiancé committing to another woman shortly thereafter on their first date, and then being inside their relationship, hearing about their sex and their gifts and meeting each other's kids, and the level of commitment was gutting.'

Bethenny and Paul started dating after meeting on a dating app in 2018. The pair got engaged in 2021 but called it quits earlier this year.
