Bethenny Frankel is desperate to adopt a young girl that was abandoned in New York City’s Port Authority bus terminal by her own father. In fact, the ‘Real Housewives of New York’ star has even taken to her social media account in her plea to help the child, even though she admits there’s plenty of red tape that she would have to overcome before she could ever bring her home.
According to Page Six, the 6-year-old unidentified girl was left on the second floor of the bus terminal by her own father who allegedly told her to ‘stay and wait.’ Authorities later found out that the young girl’s father, Elmer Gomez Ruono, left her there after her mother was fatally shot and killed in their home in nearby Stamford, Connecticut.

Throughout her nasty divorce battle with Jason Hoppy, many reports indicated that Bethenny Frankel managed to shield her daughter Bryn from the drama while also keeping her out of the public spotlight.
Meanwhile, local New York City authorities say that the child is still in their custody as they are apparently ‘working on a place for her,’ although that place is not Bethenny Frankel’s home.
