Vanderpump

After spending years in development and being the worst kept secret in the Bravo universe, the long-awaited Vanderpump Rules’ spinoff The Valley finally premiered on Tuesday night in a crossover episode. On the most recent episode of VPR, viewers watch as Jax Taylor makes his grand return to the series that birthed his reality TV career after leaving it all behind in 2020. His surprise appearance at a guys’ night with Tom Schwartz, Tom Sandoval, Brock Davies, and James Kennedy ended in a tumultuous confrontation with…

In the latest season of Vanderpump Rules, viewers have watched as the cast has done their best to pick up the pieces in the months following Sandoval. And while it’s easy to assume that the drama has all but consumed their entire lives (the first four episodes would certainly leave you to believe that), each cast is also navigating their own individual lives and figuring out what their future looks like outside of another couple’s cheating scandal. For Scheana Shay, this has meant getting back into the studio and…

For years, Tom Schwartz has been known on Vanderpump Rules for being “one of the Toms,” half of a duo with his longtime best friend Tom Sandoval. The Toms have opened bars together, built businesses, and created personal and professional identities around their friendship. It was a solid game plan until the world turned on Sandoval last year after learning about his months-long affair with Rachel Leviss. Seemingly simply as a result of being “one of the Toms,” Schwartz also found himself on the outs for sticking by his…

On March 23, 2023, when the cast members of Vanderpump Rules filmed the show’s highly anticipated Season 10 reunion just weeks after learning about Tom Sandoval and Rachel Leviss’ monthslong affair, Pluto moved into Aquarius’ sky for the first time in more than two hundred years. Those familiar with astrology know this is something of a big deal; Pluto can often be associated with truth and power as well as death and rebirth, and Aquarius is affiliated with the ideas of rebellion, revolution, and collective social…

When Jesse Montana filmed Vanderpump Rules last summer at the height of Scandoval, he didn’t realize Season 11 would be his last time in front of the cameras for the hit Bravo series. For years, Jesse has been in the background of the show as a server at Lisa Vanderpump’s West Hollywood restaurants SUR and Pump (the latter shuttering recently), as well as a good friend of some of the cast members. He’s spent the last decade in the Vanderpump universe on and off camera. As Jesse puts it, “I’ve just been living my real…

The Vanderpump Rules Season 10 finale, aptly titled “#Scandoval,” concluded with a dramatic exchange between Tom Sandoval, two-timing paragon of Angeleno scumbaggery whose five-percent ownership stake in one of West Hollywood’s seediest bars made him think he was the second coming of Steve Rubell, and Scheana Shay, an aspiring pop star/vlogger who will fall head over heels for you if you mount a TV in under seven minutes. During this coda, we saw Scheana — tears streaming down her face, because of course — read…

Reality fans are in for a treat, as Vanderpump Rules is returning very soon with its eleventh season.   Thanks to teasers of the new instalment, we know that Ariana Madix and Katie Maloney will be showcasing their brand-new sandwich shop, Something About Her.   The series will also be delving into Tom Sandoval’s long-term secret affair with his then co-star Rachel “Raquel” Leviss, which led to Ariana calling it quits with Tom after nine years. The incident was dubbed as ‘Scandoval’.    If you want to catch…

Lisa Vanderpump didn’t come to play. Hulu has released the first trailer for the newest reality show from the Real Housewives alum, Vanderpump Villa, which teases a drama-filled 10 episodes from Vanderpump’s French estate Chateau Rosabelle. “I have personally selected each of you from some of the best restaurants, bars, and kitchens,” Vanderpump says in the trailer, before walking the new employees through the rules in the first episode. The show is set to premiere in Spring 2024. The trailer sees horse-driven…

“You don’t sit there and watch episodes of Love Island with me,” Ariana Madix said when she tried to explain her idea of quality time to her then-boyfriend Tom Sandoval in what was supposed to be the Season 10 finale of Vanderpump Rules.  The scene between the former couple shows them going back and forth about how they didn’t feel connected and had different ideas of intimacy. “Well, no, I don’t have time to watch fifty goddamn episodes of Love Island,” Sandoval shouted back. “No, I don’t.” Fast forward to…

When it was reported that Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards and her husband of 27 years, Buying Beverly Hills boss Mauricio Umansky, were separating after 27 years, my social media feed was filled with sheer devastation. Not since Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow “consciously uncoupled” have I seen such public mourning. It’s one of life’s mysteries: How two people who seemed so perfect for each other just couldn’t stay together. If this is the fate of rich, hot people, then what hope is there for the…
