Bethenny Frankel offers bizarre theory on mysterious NJ drones
Bethenny Frankel admitted to feeling “unsettled” while sharing her theory on the mysterious recent drone sightings in New Jersey.
“You’re gonna think I’m nuts, but why should today be different than any other day?” she said in a video shared to TikTok on Monday.
The “Real Housewives of New York City” alum then went on to claim that she’s been speaking with someone whose father worked at the Pentagon and NASA.
“… He’s been watching this situation … these drones are ours and … they could very possibly be sniffing out something very dangerous,” Frankel claimed.
The Skinnygirl Cocktails founder, 54, then claimed that the areas where the drones have been spotted in the Northeast have “spiked in radiation.”
The former Bravolebrity said that her contact has warned her to consider relocating to another location with her daughter, Bryn, 14.
Frankel said that she continue listening and watching amid the discussions about the drone sightings.
The entrepreneur then alleged that President-elect Donald Trump is also now “finding out” that the drones “are ours.”
Hours later, Frankel shared another theory on her TikTok, claiming that the drones are only out at night because “sunlight interferes with any kind of radiation or light that they’re looking for.”
She also emphasized in the comments that these are merely her theories and not facts.
“It is a THEORY and only that now but something is OFF,” Frankel replied to a fan who commented that her explanation “makes the most sense.”
The former reality star’s videos about the drones come one day after podcast host Joe Rogan said he’s “genuinely concerned” about the flying objects.
Rogan shared his opinion on the situation as he reposted a clip of John Ferguson, CEO of a Kansas remote aircraft system company, discussing the drone sightings online.
Ferguson said that the drones have “no reason to be in the air at night” since they cannot “see s–t.”
He also claimed that drones do not have the capability to see things at night without “thermal optics.”
“So my belief is they’re trying to smell something on the ground — gas leaks, radioactive material, whatever,” he said.
However, White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby dismissed the drone theories and suggested that people are actually seeing legally flown helicopters and airplanes.
