Bethenny Ever After Renewed for Third Season

That was fast: Barely a month after season two of Bethenny Ever After bowed on Bravo, the network is readying another cycle of the series starring the Real Housewives alum. Vulture has learned a season-three pickup will be announced later today, just in time for the network’s upfront presentations to advertisers in New York, Chicago, and L.A. This makes sense given that the Monday-night series has averaged a healthy 1.4 million viewers since returning February 28 and continues to do well with Bravo’s key demo of rich folks under 50 (we’re not kidding about the rich part, either; the network even has a name for its target — “affluencersâ€). No word yet on when season three will air, but the timing of the renewal couldn’t be better for Frankel and hubby Jason: The duo celebrated their one-year wedding anniversary Monday, an event she told Access Hollywood would be “an all-out sexfest.†Awww! How sweet!
