According to AdWeek on Monday, the single mom revealed that one of the reasons why she returned to television was to better connect with her fans again, but if her Skinnygirl brand begins to suffers because of it, she'll quit in a heartbeat.
"I felt that I had been off of reality TV for so long that they didn't really know me anymore," Frankel said. "So many women have gone through what I've been going through"-a reference to her recent, and very well-publicized, divorce-"and [going back on the show] would be a great way to connect with them."

As far as her business relationships and how the show might effect Skinnygirl, she said, "They know that's who I am. If we stop moving product as a result of me being on the show, then I won't do it."
According to Extra TV earlier ths month, Frankel said that although she never expected to be back on reality television, it is the one place that she feels the most comfortable in.
Speaking about her bumpy television career, Frankel said, "I didn't have a grand plan. I thought I had something special and I thought I wanted to be in the public eye on some level, but I definitely didn't think I'd be what people call 'a mogul' or 'a brand' or anything like that."
