Currently, she's in search of a new VP to handle the daily operations of her brand known as "SkinnyGirl," and when that happens, she'll move on to other great plans. 

She has also indicated an interest in taking a suitable contestant from the show, to handle the above position.

In a sort of apologetic way, Frankel told the news outlet that she could not understand why she got so caught up with the comparisons and had an issue with it in the long run. 

She went on to say that not only was her ego at play, she also didn't want to be compared to anything else, which may have affected her judgment at the time. 

Understandably, she was being protective of her show, and did not want its success to be measured by another show's success.
