Finally, some good news for fans of Bravo’s “Real Housewives” franchise. Bethenny Frankel is making a comeback.

The “Real Housewives of New York” star left the series in 2010 and got her own talk show, “Bethenny,” which debuted in 2013. That show was canceled earlier this year.

Frankel shared the news with fans in a message on her website. She wrote, “The idea of doing the show feels exciting and refreshing, like it did at the beginning all those years ago. New faces, new circumstances, and in many ways, a new me and a new life.”

She shared that she and Bravo have “maintained an incredible partnership and relationship over the years,” and that though she had doubts about returning to TV after her talk show ended, it “feels right to go home again.”

She also added, “This feels like the Eagles ‘Hell Freezes Over tour,’ but never say never.”

Since Frankel left the show that shot her to stardom, she has founded the Skinnygirl cocktail company and split from her husband, Jason Hoppy. The two, who are going through divorce proceedings, share custody of their 4-year-old daughter.
