After a sixth-place finish at the 2017 Rostelecom Cup, Bell placed ninth at the 2017 NHK Trophy.

Bell began her season placing fifth at the US International Figure Skating Classic behind teammates Mirai Nagasu and Karen Chen, and was assigned to the Rostelecom Cup and the NHK Trophy on the 2017–18 ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating circuit.

In January 2017, Bell received the bronze medal at the U.S. Championships, earning her a spot on the Four Continents and World teams. In February, she placed sixth at the 2017 Four Continents Championships in Gangneung, South Korea. She later placed twelfth at her first trip to the 2017 World Championships in Helsinki, Finland.

For her first Grand Prix assignment, Bell competed at the 2019 Internationaux de France, placing third in the short program with only an unclear edge warning on her triple flip. In the free skate, Bell underrotated a triple Lutz, but otherwise landed all jumps cleanly and placed second in the segment, edging out reigning World and Olympic champion Alina Zagitova. She was third overall, behind Alena Kostornaia and Zagitova, taking her second Grand Prix medal. Bell said she was “proud of how this competition went.” Competing next at the 2019 Rostelecom Cup, Bell placed third in the short program despite falling on her jump combination. She was third in the free skate as well, winning another bronze medal.

Having already had Adam Rippon collaborate as a choreographer the previous season, Bell added Rippon as part of her coaching team in addition to having him again choreograph her short program, this time to Britney Spears music on Rippon’s recommendation. Starting her season on the Challenger series at the 2019 CS Nebelhorn Trophy, Bell placed first in both segments to win the event, her first international gold medal.

Bell concluded her season as part of the gold medal-winning Team USA at the 2019 World Team Trophy.

At the 2019 World Figure Skating Championships, Bell finished ninth with a career-best total score of 208.07. Bell’s attendance at the World Championships became enmeshed in controversy when she was accused of deliberately causing an on-ice incident in which the blade of her free leg hit South Korean skater Lim Eun-soo during a practice session. causing a cut on Lim’s calf. Lim’s agency, All That Sports, stated to Agence-France Presse that the incident had been intentional and part of a pattern of bullying by Bell. Upon request from the Korean Skating Federation, the International Skating Union conducted an investigation. On March 21, the ISU stated that it found no evidence that Bell had sought to intentionally injure Lim. Rafael Arutyunyan, who coached both Bell and Lim, denied the allegations: “The thing is that Mariah’s program includes an element where she lays her leg back and stretches it. This is how it happened that she touched Lim’s leg with her blade. Of course it was not deliberately! There has never been any confrontation between them at training sessions.” Bell later said: “The whole experience was really bizarre and it just felt like I was drowning in this nightmare of completely false information that was put out there that I couldn’t do anything about.”

At the 2019 U.S. Championships, Bell underrotated the second part of her combination and placed third in the short program, behind Bradie Tennell and Alysa Liu. She placed second in the free skate, behind Liu, winning the bronze medal overall, the second of her career. Because the 13-year-old Liu was ineligible for senior (or even junior) international competition, Bell joined silver medalist Tennell on the American team for the 2019 World Championships, as well as the 2019 Four Continents Championships.

Bell is currently the 14th highest ranked ladies’ singles skater in world by the International Skating Union following the 2019-20 figure skating season.

Bell placed third in the short program at the 2020 U.S. Championships when, after landing her jumps successfully, she fell in her step sequence. She remarked after “today, maybe I felt a little too good.” Placing second in the free skate with no errors other than an underrotated triple Lutz, Bell won the silver medal, and was the highest-finishing medalist eligible for senior international competition, the gold medal going again to Alysa Liu. Her free skate received a standing ovation, which she called “a very special feeling. I hadn’t had that before in my career.”
