Bethenny Frankel says she is still optimistic when it comes to looking for true love, despite her nasty divorce battle with her soon-to-be ex-husband Jason Hoppy.

The former reality television star, who previously said that her divorce has been one of the toughest experiences of her life, says that she is still looking for her "happily ever after" with the right man by her side.

In a recent interview with Life & Style Magazine, Bethenny admitted, "Yes, I believe in love, very much so. I've learned not to look [for love]. The gifts come when you expect the unexpected and are pleasantly surprised."

Bethenny is currently going through a transitional period in her life after her daytime talk show Bethenny was given the axe after only one season on air. There has been speculation that the Skinny Girl mogul might be looking to rejoin the cast of the Real Housewives of New York in order to stay in the celebrity spotlight.

Bethenny and businessman Jason Hoppy got married in March 2010, two months before she gave birth to their daughter, Bryn. The couple announced their separation in December 2012.

The Bravo star has since been linked to several men, including financer Michael Cerussi and billionaire Warren Lichtenstein. Meanwhile, Bethenny and Jason are due back in a Manhattan family courtroom this week in their ongoing custody battle of their daughter Bryn.
