Bravo reality starlet Bethenny Frankel had a very real experience this weekend!
Frankel and hubby Jason Hoppy took a sailing trip that was supposed to last eight hours, but turned into more than 20 when a big wave hit.
The boat's GPS system malfunctioned, leaving Frankel and 10 passengers were literally lost at sea.
Also present was a Bravo TV crew. So, on the bright side, this will make for some drama for her show! Ultimately, the group was rescued by the Coast Guard.
Frankel Tweeted after the ordeal, noting that 15-month-old daughter Bryn came to her mind:
"Worst night of my life. ... beyond traumatic. All I thought of was bryn. Terror."
"I am SO HAPPY to be home. What a terrifying weekend.I'm kissing the ground.thanking my lucky stars&the coast guard!"
Scary! But, Bethenny's therapist was on the trip too; maybe he provided some comfort!

Jennifer Garner had an eventful Sunday afternoon, toting her adorable daughters Violet and Seraphina to a birthday party in Beverly Hills!
Both girls looked really excited to attend the party -- they each held their own colorful pastel bags, and Violet happily took a gift for mom to bring to the birthday kid inside!
Jen, who's in her second trimester with baby number three, held on tight to her Violet, who we can't believe is growing up so fast!

Justin Theroux continues to enjoy his time in New York City ... even when it's solo!
The actor, 40, picked up a few necessities at a local Duane Reade drugstore Sunday before hopping on his motorcycle, sans GF Jennifer Aniston. He made sure to strap a box tightly to his bike -- and a bullseye helmet to his head -- before taking off.
Despite the fact that the weather has been in the comfortable 60s in the Big Apple, Justin was dressed like it was the dead of a winter! He was bundled up in a leather jacket, zip-up hoodie, gray scarf, newsboy hat and gloves.
Well ... all-black bad boy threads are his uniform!

Jen Aniston can't catch a break lately.
First, Brad Pitt's Parade interview lit up headlines, with direct quotes from him saying his marriage to Jen was uninteresting.
Now the media is dissing Aniston too. Vanity Fair just released its full interview with Angelina Jolie, out in the mag's October issue -- a piece entitled "Direct from Angelina."
The interview covers her movie career without delving much into Angie and Brad's relationship, but the writer does make some not-so-nice comments about Jen, saying:
"You can’t go 15 minutes in Angie World without a hint of Aniston, who lingers like a sad spook, the girl bested and left behind."

Amanda Seyfried had to brace herself for a trip to the supermarket.
The In Time star grabbed groceries from a Whole Foods in Hollywood Sunday afternoon, but she had her right knee taped up!
From the looks of it, the actress either had a minor injury or is just playing things safe to protect her knee. After all, she was in workout gear as she ran to the store.
We love that she mixed her tank and sneakers with a Chanel purse -- why change bags four times a day?!

Heidi Montag is hoping to prove she's still a celebrity by making an appearance at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas to celebrate her 25th birthday.
The reality star, along with her hubby Spencer Pratt, partied at 35 Steaks + Martinis. We're told the birthday girl ordered Colorado lamb and lobster tail. Sounds delish.
A source from inside the club says partygoers celebrated her big day with a round of "Heidi fun shots" and, of course, champagne.
After dinner, Heidi and her crew headed to Vanity Nightclub where we're told the drinks continued flowing. The former Hills star also received a red velvet cake in the shape of presents.
Judging by her expression, we can tell it was a good night!
