The Real Housewives of New York City star, 44, was once nanny to Paris Hilton. She got the job nannying Paris, now 34, and her sister Nicky, now 32, thanks to her friendship with Kyle Richards, who would go on to find fame as a star of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. “I’ve known Kyle for years. I used to work for Kathy Hilton and take Paris and Nicky to school and so I knew them through Kyle, who’s a friend of mine and she was coming into town so I got together with her in the Hamptons,” Frankel told E! News. “All very natural, but you know she happens to be on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and I got to meet all her friends.” In 2014, Richards showed off how far back the pair went by posting a throwback photo to them back during Frankel’s nannying days. “I love this #flashbackfriday with @bethenny flashing WAAAY back,” she captioned the photo.
