Bethenny Frankel has an awkward encounter with Luann D'Agostino's then fiancé, Tom, in the upcoming episode of "The Real Housewives of New York" ("RHONY") season 9.

Titled "Bidding on Love," next week's episode will see Bethenny tell Dorinda Medley everything about her new apartment while they are out shopping for furniture. Following her heated exchange with Bethenny, Ramona Singer seeks advice from her daughter Avery about the issue.

Meanwhile, Sonja Morgan goes to the Upper East Side with Tinsley Mortimer and Ramona for a night of fun. Tinsley meets a young suitor while they are out clubbing, but he does not meet the requirements on Sonja's list for her. Bethenny is introduced to Luann's fiancé at Dorinda's charity event, while Carole Radziwill gets juicy details about Luann's relationship.

Bethenny and Ramona had a lot of problems in the past and it looks like their current feud is not showing signs of stopping. Many fans will agree that their encounter during the Hamptons episode is one of the most awkward and tense discussions in "RHONY" history. Given the drama surrounding the two ladies, it is going to be quite a while before they get to a better place in their friendship.

The previous episode saw tensions escalate further between Ramona and Bethenny. During a drinks outing planned by Dorinda, Ramona confronted Bethenny about how she deals with her friends who are going through tough times.

"I don't like the way you're speaking to me right now," Bethenny snapped at Ramona. In a blog post, Bethenny said she left the event because she "simply don't want to be around Ramona."

The "RHONY" stars' fight began when Ramona asked Bethenny if her young daughter, Bryn, knows about her past acting career. Bethenny appeared topless in a film before, and she took offense when Ramona brought the issue up to her daughter.

Season 9 of "RHONY" airs every Wednesday at 9 p.m. EDT on Bravo.
