Kelly Bensimon has a blast in Jamaica with her daughters just DAYS before dramatically calling off wedding to Scott Litner
Kelly Bensimon enjoyed a mini bachelorette getaway with her daughters mere days before she shockingly called off her wedding to Scott Litner.
The 56-year-old Real Housewives of New York alum — who earlier this year said she wanted a 'sexy' and 'unique' wedding dress — was spotted frolicking on the beach in Jamaica, wearing a sexy red and pink slip dress.
She was joined by her two kids — daughters Sea, 26, and Teddy, 23.
The trio soaked up the sun and splashed around the shoreline shortly before Bensimon announced she would not be going through with the June 29 nuptials.
In a statement to Page Six on Tuesday, June 25, she said: 'I have decided that my two daughters are my priority and I won’t be moving forward with this wedding.'

The following day, Kelly revealed the reason she cancelled the wedding was because her fiancé refused to sign a prenuptial agreement.
'He thought that I would enter this union without legal protections in place, that I would leave everything to faith,' she explained to ET.
The real estate agent continued: 'But I’ve worked really, really, hard as a single mother and have always made smart decisions for myself and my family, and that will continue.'
Bensimon was previously married to Gilles Bensimon, a photographer, from 1997 to 2006.
Litner has been married twice and also has children.
'I haven't come this far in business and life to start making poor decisions because of a man,' the former reality TV personality told Us Weekly.
She stressed about the financier, 'He of all people should have understood the need to protect each other before we tied the knot. I'm truly shocked he refused a prenup.'

Scott proposed on a speedboat while she was clad in a tiny lilac bikini last Fourth of July weekend.
A rep for the star told Page Six at the time: 'Kelly is happily engaged and looking forward to this new beginning.'
'Scott proposed to me, literally in Wisconsin near where I was raised. I was raised in Rockford, Illinois, and he proposed to me in Lake Geneva Wisconsin,' Kelly gushed to DailyMail.com at the time.
Last December she told People about her then-fiancé: 'When I first met him, I didn’t even say anything. I was speechless — which is not like me, I always have something to say.'
She gushed, 'He blew me away. He’s just a really special human.'
According to Page Six, Kelly was scheduled to pick up her three wedding dresses from Kleinfeld’s on Tuesday afternoon.

Earlier this month, she shared with the outlet: 'I’m getting married later in life and I never thought this would happen. I just would not change this day and the leading up to it.'
The star and her two children spent their weekend at Sandals Dunn’s River.
Kelly and Scott were supposed to have two ceremonies — a backyard wedding in Boston for their closest loved ones and later a larger party in the Hamptons.
