It was reported in January 2012, that Frankel made the decision that the third and final season of the series would be her last in order for her to concentrate on her business ventures.

In October 2014, it was announced that Frankel would return to The Real Housewives of New York City after a three-season hiatus.

Frankel prepares for motherhood and weds Jason Hoppy, while maintaining her career as an author and natural foods chef with the help of her assistant, Julie Plake.

She also continues to grow her business and venture into new areas, with her new SkinnyGirl team member, Jackie Lagratta.

The third and final season of Bethenny Ever After chronicles the sales of SkinnyGirl cocktails introducing some added luxuries into Frankel's life: a large new apartment, remote vacations, and a larger staff are all part of the perks.
