The 45-year-old "The Real Housewives of New York City" star confirmed boyfriend Dennis Shields is legally married but separated from his wife.

"I'm dating a separated married man. I'm married. I went to high school w his ex wife 30 yrs ago. Any other questions?" she tweeted Tuesday in response to fan inquiries.

Frankel is separated from husband Jason Hoppy in 2012.

She filed to end their marriage in 2013, but the divorce is still pending due to settlement negotiations.

"The Real Housewives" star and Shields reportedly started dating over the holidays and were spotted holding hands in New York last week.

The couple are said to have gone on vacation with Frankel's co-star Carole Radziwill.

"Bethenny and Dennis seem happy together and have traveled together," a source told Us Weekly. "They have gone out with Carole [and her boyfriend], Adam [Kenworthy], and have hung out with each other's friends."
