Bethenny Frankel Returning To "Real Housewives Of New York"

Having lived Bethenny Ever After, OG housewife Bethenny Frankel is returning to the fold. Frankel will return as a regular cast member on season seven of The Real Housewives of New York.

"I'm genuinely excited, with a side of slightly nervous, for my return to The Real Housewives of New York City," Frankel said in a statement to E! News. "Bravo has always been the place on television where I have the freedom to be unfiltered, honest and inappropriate, with an audience who has been with me from the beginning. I can't wait to see what this next chapter brings for all of us. Watch what happens!"

Frankel was a fan fave during seasons one through three of RHoNY, before breaking out to star in her own reality shows — Bethenny Getting Married? and Bethenny Ever After — with ex-husband Jason Hoppy. Frankel also had her own eponymous talk show, though it was canceled after one season.

Meanwhile, Bravo deity Andy Cohen has already started mixing the SkinnyGirl margaritas in anticipation of Bethenny's return. "Bethenny is one of the most popular Housewives in the history of the franchise," Cohen said, "and I couldn't be more excited she is coming home to Bravo." 

Season seven will also feature Carole Radziwill, Heather Thomson, Kristen Taekman, LuAnn de Lesseps, Sonja Morgan and Ramona Singer. Aviva Drescher — and her prosthetic leg — will not be returning. Well, as long as we're bringing housewives back, what are the chances of reuniting Bethenny and Jill Zarin?
