Bethenny, 48, played coy about a potential return at the 71st Annual Primetime Emmy Awards on Sunday, September 22. "You know, I love Andy. I love Bravo. They took out an ad yesterday to congratulate me on everything B Strong is doing, so it’s great to have good relationships and I will always be a member of the Bravo family … I have had such a great experience, Bravo has been such an amazing partner, and I’m always rooting for the women, and what a great journey I’ve had. So, this is the next chapter. The Emmys is a wonderful place to start the next chapter!” she told Entertainment Tonight.

Andy, 51, remained hopeful while discussing Bethenny's exit on his SiriusXM radio show on September 4. "It was just so fun to have her back and she brought so much to the show that — I just am living in the gratitude of her second return, and I will hopefully live in the gratitude of her third return. Because we are much like the mob, you can’t get out. And I, I do hope and think that she will come back sometime,” he said.

He continued, “She’s so still a part of everything that’s going on, that you almost could see her dropping in and it’s like, ‘Oh my god! OK. Here’s Bethenny, Bethenny’s at a party! Bethenny’s on this trip.’ You know, you never know. You never know. So, I look forward to her in any capacity on the show, and I’m just grateful that she was back at all. We all should be.”
