How is Bethenny Frankel adjusting to life as a single mom?

According to Life & Style, the former "Real Housewife" spoke to fans in Huntington, N.Y while promoting her new book "Skinnygirl Solutions," and opened up about life post-divorce.

"I'm trying to find my identity as a single mom -- a soon-to-be-divorced mom," she said. "I was married, and now I'm single. I think we're always trying to find who were are, so it's evolving."

She also spoke about how life-altering events like giving birth to her daughter and filing for divorce in January made her more aware of life's challenges.

"Not until I became a mom and also going through a divorce did I realize how we're all kind of hanging on by a thread," she said.

Frankel is in the midst of a messy divorce from Jason Hoppy, with whom she has a daughter.

It's not the first time Frankel has spoken candidly about her split. Earlier this week, she admitted that her divorce was a "brutal, brutal time," and this month she also said that even though being a working single mom is difficult, she won't complain.
