Thank you Hampton Classic and "Bill" for the amazing horseshow. Congrats to all the riders. Oxoxoox

Avid equestrian Kelly Killoren Bensimon had a bumpy start to her day — she got tossed from her horse!

The Real Housewives of New York star was participating in the Hampton Classic Horse Show in Bridgehampton, NY, earlier today when the incident happened.

"For all you haters, you won today," she wrote on Twitter on Thursday. "I got dumped off my horse in the middle of my round. Go celebrate. I am so upset."

This isn't the first time she's taken a tumble in her long history of riding. Last summer — just days before the same horse show, which specializes in jumping — she also took a spill. In her Bravo blog, she said she used that incident as a lesson to her daughters, Sea and Teddy, saying despite the fall, "I always tell my girls, 'Killorens always finish strong.'"

Kelly noted that although horses fear leaves — or even just a tissue — the sport is fun. "400 pounds of fun,” she blogged. “But when I fall, it always goes through my head, ‘What am I doing?’ and ‘Is it all worth it?’ As odd as it seems, I love this crazy sport. I love their athleticism and playfulness. I am hooked."
Sounds like she'll be back on that horse in no time!
