Bethenny Frankel joined a growing number of women on social media who said they were assaulted while walking in New York City .

The Real Housewives alum commented on a TikTok video that was posted by a fashion design student who claimed the same. The video has since been made private.

This is insane [because] this happened to me a few months ago but I was embarrassed to say, Frankel wrote in a comment that has since been deleted but was captured by Page Six . I was on the [Upper West Side]. Insane. I was taking video of a bakery.

Frankels representatives did not immediately respond to HuffPosts request for comment.
