Bethenny Frankel** isn't "Hoppy."
Frankel certainly butted heads with husband Jason Hoppy on the third season of Bravo's Bethenny Ever After. But sources tell Us Weekly** the reality is now worse.
"Things have gotten even more strained in recent months," says a pal. "They're fighting a lot."
The arguments have become so heated, they're increasingly spending time apart. The fledgling talk-show host, 42, took a girls' getaway in late November, while businessman Hoppy, 41, went golfing the day of Skinnygirl's Christmas party December 7.
One ongoing conflict: differing career ambitions. Says a source, "She's very focused, but he's just not driven."
The couple, who tied the knot in March 2010, are parents to daughter Bryn, 2.
Is a separation next?
"Bethenny's unhappy," adds an insider, "but she really wants to make it work."
