Bethenny Frankel knows her worth in the world of reality TV. "When I was going back to Housewives, I asked for anything I wanted," Frankel, 54, exclusively shared in her Us Weekly cover story. "They asked me what I wanted. I asked for it. I got it." After making it to the finals on The Apprentice: Martha Stewart in 2005, Frankel helped launch The Real Housewives of New York City three years later. She left after season 3 but returned in season 7 for five additional seasons.
