As I delve into the tumultuous lives of these Vanderpump Rules stars, I find myself utterly amazed and saddened by the tangled web they weave. The story of Ariana and Tom, two individuals who once shared love and trust, now embroiled in a heart-wrenching betrayal, is as tragic as it is captivating.
These were the best days of their lives…
However, the original cast members of Vanderpump Rules who are still part of the show—namely Scheana Shay, Katie Maloney, and Tom Sandoval—have reached their final episode on the Bravo series.
The press release from November 26th reveals that Season 12 of the series, starring Lisa Vanderpump, focuses on the staff drama at her Los Angeles eateries SUR and TomTom. This new season introduces a fresh group of interconnected SUR-goers whose relationships are as convoluted as those of their legendary predecessors.
It was confirmed that Lisa will continue to be part of the series, but it seems that Ariana Madix, Tom Schwartz, Lala Kent, James Kennedy, and Brock Davies – all of whom have become familiar faces throughout the show’s run – are no longer going to work their final shifts.
As a dedicated follower, I’m excited to share that Bravo has pledged to honor the remaining cast members with a “retrospective special.” This unique show will delve into the “past decade of emotional upheavals, friendships tested, and scandalous moments” that have unfolded across the last 11 seasons.
According to the statement, we’ll start producing it next year, but they haven’t yet specified the exact release date or revealed who the main actors will be; those details will be shared later on.
Alex Baskin, the executive producer, expressed his excitement about the update, stating, “It’s such an exhilarating experience to continue the tradition of this series by starting anew. We hold deep respect for the initial team and their remarkable journey, and we can hardly wait for viewers to meet a fresh set of colleagues and companions as they navigate life together.
Lisa, too, weighed in on the changeup.
Over the past 12 years of filming, it’s been an incredible journey filled with laughter, tears, and everything in between. I can never fully express my gratitude to those who have allowed me to be a part of their lives. My affection for all of you is boundless. As in the restaurant industry, one shift transitions to another. Here’s to the upcoming generation of Vanderpump Rules! Cheers!
At the moment of this publication, other members of the VPR cast haven’t publicly spoken about the latest news. However, Ariana has expressed concerns about the show’s future and her ongoing issues with specific cast members in the past.
In response to an inquiry by TopMob News’ Will Marfuggi in September about whether Vanderpump would return for a twelfth season, the Love Island USA host stated, “To be honest, I’m not sure.
As a lifestyle expert reflecting on the topic, I can share that Ariana, who has thrived in multiple ventures post-relationship turbulence, candidly expressed, “I haven’t been in touch with any of my castmates lately. If you’d like their thoughts, you might want to ask them directly.
For a breakdown of Ariana and Tom’s breakup, keep reading.
The news emerges during a challenging period for the well-liked reality show following the revelation of Sandoval’s affair with Rachel Leviss (formerly engaged to James), which marked the end of his long-term relationship with Ariana.
Despite efforts made by the cast to put their disagreements aside for the sake of filming, Season 11 saw these tensions erupt repeatedly. This culminated in a finale that seemed more like a goodbye to ‘Vanderpump Rules’.
Although VPR is wrapping up, it doesn’t automatically imply that the cherished cast members will vanish from our screens forever.
Following this, alumni from VPR (Vanderpump Rules), including former cast members Jax Taylor, Brittany Cartwright, and Kristen Doute – who recently announced her pregnancy – have moved onto another reality show on Bravo titled “The Valley”. Previously featured cast member Stassi Schroeder is also making a comeback to the small screen for season two of “Vanderpump Villa”.
At the moment when this article was written, the rest of the VPR cast haven’t publicly voiced their opinions about the ongoing news. However, Ariana has expressed concerns regarding the show’s unpredictable future and her tense relationships with some cast members in the past.
As an ardent enthusiast, I can’t help but share my excitement when asked by TopMob News’ Will Marfuggi in September about the return of Vanderpump for a twelfth season. In response to my eager inquiry, the Love Island USA host casually responded with “I don’t know.” However, deep down, I can sense a hint of anticipation and mystery in those simple words, keeping me on the edge of my seat, waiting for the next big announcement!
As a lifestyle expert looking back on the show, I can’t help but reflect on its impact and potential future. When asked about the possibility of the series continuing without its original cast members, Ariana – who has flourished in numerous ventures post-relationship – candidly shared, “I don’t maintain connections with any of them, so it would be best if you directed your query towards them to get their thoughts.
For a breakdown of Ariana and Tom’s breakup, keep reading.
Following the conclusion of Tom Sandoval‘s tumultuous relationship with fellow cast member Kristen Doute, Ariana Madix became a part of the Vanderpump Rules series in its second season. At that point, Kristen claimed that Tom and Ariana had been intimate while she and Tom were still together. In response to this accusation, Ariana famously said, “I’m more intelligent than you. I’m more attractive than you. Just move on.
As an ardent admirer, I can’t help but share this intriguing tale. Initially, both Tom and Ariana refuted the rumors, yet the story took an unexpected turn when Tom confessed that we, indeed, shared a moment in a pool during our time in the vibrant city of Las Vegas. Quite a splash, wouldn’t you say?
At the season two reunion, it was made clear by Tom and Ariana that they were in a relationship. Tom expressed, “We’ve certainly been spending time together,” adding, “Things have been fantastic.” On the very same evening the episode premiered, these SUR bartenders took to Instagram to publicly confirm their romance.
In season three, Kristen stated that a woman contacted her via Instagram, asserting she had been romantically involved with Tom while he was in Miami with Jax Taylor and Tom Schwartz. Kristen subsequently invited this woman to SUR to discuss the matter with Tom and his girlfriend Ariana, but the couple appeared unconcerned about the accusations, with Tom maintaining that he hadn’t been unfaithful to Ariana.
Following an encounter with DJ James Kennedy at a New Year’s Eve celebration, contestant and student Raquel Leviss first appeared on VPR during the fifth season premiere. Fast-forwarding two years, the duo decided to share a living space, although several SUR employees maintained that James had romantic encounters with other women while he was in a relationship with Raquel. At that point, James refuted these accusations. Once Raquel joined the SUR team as a waitress, she became a permanent fixture on Vanderpump Rules during season nine.
Tom and Ariana recently purchased their very own residence in Valley Village, California, marking the end of their tenancy at the West Hollywood flat, known for its peculiarity – the inability to operate both the air conditioner and microwave simultaneously without triggering a power failure.
The farmhouse-style property with five bedrooms, five and a half baths, and approximately 4,500 square feet was bought by the couple for slightly more than two million dollars, as reported by Bravo TV.
Instead of saying “To pop the question to Raquel, James staged a Coachella-themed proposal which was captured by Bravo’s cameras and broadcasted in October,” you could say, “In October, James arranged a Coachella-style proposal for Raquel that was filmed by Bravo’s cameras and shown on TV.” This version maintains the original meaning while using simpler, more natural language.
On a magical evening at the renowned Empire Polo Fields of ‘RACHELLA’, James popped the question… and guess what? I said YES! I’m as happy as someone orbiting Coachella. Similarly, he shared the exciting news on social media with, “The love of my life, said yes.
In a later episode of VPR, it emerged that James and Tom Sandoval shared the cost of the extravagant engagement, with Tom stating, “I chipped in $25k because there’s no greater pleasure for me than helping a friend realize their dreams.
Five years into their relationship, James and Raquel called off their engagement, a decision made only a week following the taping of the season nine reunion show.
After five wonderful years shared, we realized our aspirations diverged and chose to end our engagement, as expressed in a joint statement on our individual Instagrams. Despite our deep affection, we no longer share that romantic connection. Our hope is that you’ll send us only positive vibes as we move forward separately, wishing each other nothing but the best.
Raquel later revealed why she chose to end their relationship.
She clarified during the January 7th episode of the Scheananigans with Scheana Shay podcast that her family and him were having difficulties getting along. The prospect of shared holidays such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, and other celebrations seemed uncertain, with it appearing that either James or her family would be excluded from future gatherings. If a baby was involved, the tension seemed even more pronounced. Looking ahead to this potential future, she expressed her reluctance, stating, “I don’t want that.
In March 2022, James publicly confirmed his relationship with Ally Lewber on Instagram, and she has since made an appearance on the show.
Approximately a month following Katie Maloney and Tom Schwartz’s announcement of their split after 12 years together, news emerged about Schwartz being seen kissing Raquel at Coachella.
Contrarily, the co-owner of Schwartz & Sandy swiftly clarified the situation. In a tweet, he stated, “I regret to inform you all that I wasn’t present at Coachella.
At the music festival, Raquel was present and shared pictures on Instagram, including snaps where she posed with Tom Sandoval and Ariana. She labeled one of the selfies with Sandoval as being on an island.
Despite Scheana Shay’s grand wedding to Brock Davies in Cancun, Mexico, being the main event, stories about a kiss between Schwartz and Raquel during the ceremony took center stage in news headlines. The upcoming season 10 trailer showed evidence of this encounter, and Schwartz later confessed that his relationship with Raquel had shifted from friendship to something more like a flirtatious one following their marriage.
Schwartz shared with Erin Lim Rhodes at TopMob News in October that there seems to be a strong bond between him and Raquel. He confirmed they have grown closer, expressing admiration for her. Through getting to know her better, he discovered various aspects of her personality he wasn’t aware of before. Surprisingly, he found out how hilarious and clever Raquel is, which he hadn’t anticipated.
In the midst of her continuing disagreement with Katie about Schwartz’s relationship, Raquel’s choice to don a TomTom sweatshirt at BravoCon on October 17 raised some doubts or questions.
Raquel shared on Instagram that she donned her TomTom sweatshirt during Day 3 of BravoCon primarily because it offered a comfortable feel. Furthermore, she chose to wear it as a show of support for both Toms, encouraging others to visit their booth to browse the rest of their charming merchandise. Raquel expressed her delight in supporting her friends and maintaining comfort simultaneously. To emphasize her fandom, she used the hashtags #sue me and #number one Tom Stan.
On Halloween, Sandoval decided to impersonate Raquel at BravoCon, donning a sweatshirt, a blonde wig, and sunglasses. He posted a picture of his costume on Instagram Stories with the caption, “Raquel needs to stop dropping by TomTom, it’s becoming quite awkward.
Ariana clarified the rumors suggesting her and Tom’s relationship is open-ended, a hint dropped in the intense season 10 preview.
She posted on Twitter, “I don’t engage in open relationships. I’m not as carefree as it might seem, and I hope that was clear.” Moreover, she clarified, “Being bisexual does not mean I am polyamorous.
The upcoming sneak peek of Raquel’s show features a discussion about her connection with Tom Schwartz, where she confesses her feelings by saying, “I have strong feelings for Schwartz.” Additionally, the sneak peek includes Raquel kissing Oliver Saunders, who is Garcelle Beauvais’ son from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and dates with recurring cast member Peter Madrigal.
On March 3rd, a shockwave swept through the Bravo community as it was officially announced that Tom Sandoval and Ariana had ended their nine-year relationship. An informant revealed to TopMob News that filming was ongoing among the cast at the time, implying that the unfolding drama will likely be featured in the current 10th season of the Bravo series.
The separation occurred following rumors that Tom and Raquel had been involved romantically for several months, with the revelation causing distress to Ariana. Subsequently, Scheana, Katie, and Kristen visited Ariana’s home to offer comfort, while Kristen, bearing flowers and a bottle of wine, also posted a selfie video on her Instagram Stories with Ariana, expressing support for her friend by saying, “I admire Ariana. This is happening right now.
Later that evening in Anaheim, California, Tom performed at a concert alongside his band, Tom Sandoval & the Most Extras.
At the performance, numerous spectators in the crowd vocally criticized Tom as he stepped onto the stage, according to a TikTok video. He didn’t react, but when someone called out “Ariana!”, he replied into the microphone, “We adore her.” Additionally, another onlooker informed TopMob News that the audience also shouted insults like “Jerk” in Tom’s general vicinity.
After announcing their breakup, it was discovered that Ariana removed her Instagram account. Contrary to rumors, however, a representative for Tom confirmed to TopMob News that he has not vacated the shared home with Ariana.
On March 4, Tom Sandoval used Instagram to speak out about the negative reactions his Schwarth & Sandy’s restaurant staff have faced since the latest news became public.
He acknowledged that his actions may have caused your anger and disappointment, but he kindly requests you to exclude Tom Schwartz, his friends, and family from this matter. This issue is highly personal for him.
Tom further stated, “They are innocent in this matter,” and continued, “I deeply regret that Greg, Brett, Schwartz, and our workforce have to bear the consequences of my decisions. In respect for my employees and partners, I will be temporarily stepping aside to handle other matters. I apologize sincerely for everything.
On the 7th of March, Tom issued a public apology directly to Ariana amidst the scandal surrounding their affair. In an Instagram post shared on the same day, he wrote: “First and foremost, I want to extend my deepest apologies to Ariana. I made mistakes, acted selfishly, and made reckless decisions that caused her immense pain. No one should have to endure such traumatic and public heartache.
The TomTom co-owner expressed his deep sympathy, stating he could hardly fathom the pain this situation has caused for Ariana and those close to them. He admitted feeling profound regret for any harm he may have caused to Ariana, as well as for letting down so many people, including their dear families and friends.
He sadly acknowledged that things didn’t turn out as he had hoped, as his actions didn’t align with the person he aspires to be. He’s committed to self-reflection and personal growth, acknowledging there’s always room for improvement. He’s got a lot on his plate in terms of self-improvement, which is something he’s constantly dealing with.
A short while after Tom’s declaration, Raquel publicly apologized to Ariana on her Instagram post dated March 8th. In the post, she expressed, “I feel compelled to apologize for my behavior and decisions towards Ariana, as well as my friends and supporters who have been following our connection closely.” She continued, “No excuses are valid, I am not a victim, I acknowledge my actions, and I sincerely regret causing harm to Ariana.
She shared, “I’m giving thought to my decisions, discussing them with a counselor. I’ve discovered aspects of myself, like tendencies towards codependency and an addiction to feeling loved. I’ve been seeking emotional validation through relationships that aren’t always healthy, often at the expense of my own well-being and sometimes impacting others negatively. These connections have frequently taken priority over friendships. However, I’m making efforts now to comprehend my actions better and make healthier choices.
On March 8th, Lisa Vanderpump had an open discussion with Andy Cohen on ‘Watch What Happens Live’. During this interview, she expressed her shock and astonishment about the recent news, stating that she was left speechless. She confessed that no one anticipated this development, as she didn’t see it coming.
LVP emphasized that the surprising aspect of the scandal was that their relationship, which appeared to have been ongoing for quite some time, remained hidden from everyone’s knowledge.
Expressing a recent development about Ariana, Lisa shared, “I’m heartbroken. There have been many tears. Ariana was more than just a friend – she was the kind of loyal companion you’d call a ‘ride-or-die.’ It appears that Raquel was the ‘ride’ part and Ariana was the ‘die’ part – it’s not a good situation.
On March 11, Tom Schwartz, a partner in TomTom, finally shared his thoughts with TMZ about when he learned of his friend’s affair with Raquel, addressing the curiosity many fans had been expressing.
He admitted, “I’m honestly feeling quite down due to the harmful effects it’s causing for our company.” However, he remains optimistic, believing that reason will ultimately triumph, and he intends to continue moving forward as usual.
Regarding Sandoval’s current state amid the criticism, he stated, “He seems alright, I believe. There’s a deep sense of sorrow in him, as one would expect. He feels terrible about himself, to an extent, and perhaps there’s some reason for it. He recognizes his mistake, and the entire situation is truly unfortunate.
During an appearance on “Watch What Happens Live” on March 15th, Katie Maloney stated that she wasn’t entirely surprised by the Tom-Raquel cheating scandal, but admitted that the specifics of it left her in a state of shock.
Apart from the breakup, she also provided an update on Ariana. As Katie disclosed, she seems to be in a positive state of mind. She’s focusing on self-care. In fact, I had a chance to meet her yesterday and we both share a sense of excitement. Ariana herself is excited about something too.
Over the past fortnight, I’ve been holding my breath, waiting for my idol, Ariana, to address the breakup rumors. And finally, she did! On March 15, she broke her silence in an emotional Instagram post.
36-year-old stated, “I truly appreciate the overwhelming affection and encouragement I’ve received from friends, family, and strangers in the past fortnight. When I felt like collapsing, you all provided the resilience needed for me to carry on, guiding me through my toughest moments.
Ariana emphasized, “Being shattered and crushed doesn’t even begin to describe how I feel, but I realize that I’m not facing this on my own. Many of my dearest friends are grappling with this loss and the betrayal as well. I am incredibly fortunate to have an exceptional support system, and I hope someday I can return the love and kindness you’ve shown me.
In the midseason trailer for season 10, Bravo unveiled the initial scenes of Scandoval on March 20th. The cameras captured a heated conversation between Tom and Ariana following their post-affair split, where she confronted him harshly, saying something along the lines of “may you perish” due to his infidelity with Raquel.
While Tom admitted “I wish we both would have tried harder,” Ariana fired back with, “You don’t deserve one f–king tear of mine.”
On March 23, Andy Cohen hosted an intense season 10 reunion of VPR, where the entire cast confronted Tom and Raquel about their affair. According to TopMob News, the atmosphere was so charged that Andy Cohen needed to intervene and separate two cast members to prevent a physical altercation from occurring.
Back on my April 3 broadcast, I couldn’t help but spill the beans about this: “It was a real wake-up call. If you’re yearning to unravel their tale, trust me, you’ll hear it. And if you’re hoping for an intense, confrontational grilling about their actions—a no-holds-barred interrogation—well, buckle up, because you’re in for a wild ride!
Bravo revealed the cast’s reunion looks on April 3, including Ariana’s red-hot revenge dress.
During a shocking interview on Watch What Happens Live on April 5th, Tom Schwartz disclosed that he discovered Sandoval and Leviss had their first romantic encounter back in August of the previous year, prior to their relationship deepening. In his own words, “It seemed like an emotional affair from my perspective,” emphasizing that such behavior is still unacceptable.
Schwartz asserted that his close friend admitted to him in January that he was smitten with Leviss, even though he was still involved with Madix. He described Sandoval’s feelings as an “intense obsession.
Approximately over a month since the revelation of their extended romantic involvement, it’s been confirmed by a source that Raquel sought help at a mental health center on April 14th, as reported by TopMob News.
As an ardent admirer, I’ve learned that months prior, my beloved Raquel had made the courageous decision to seek help for her mental wellbeing, a choice that ultimately led her to a voluntary mental health counseling facility. Her representative shared this news with TopMob News, revealing that she was initially set to enter before the reunion, but chose to fulfill her filming commitments first. Bravo and production were fully aware of her journey and stood by her side, offering their unwavering support as she navigated towards a healthier mental state.
During Coachella 2023, held from April 14 to 16, Ariana appeared to have moved on from Tom as she was seen affectionately with trainer Daniel Wai. This took place at the annual California event.
In the thrilling finale of VPR, Tom and Raquel expressed their love for each other publicly for the first time, amidst the repercussions of the affair. They also talked about their plans for the future following the scandal.
He admitted, “I can’t foresee what will happen with Raquel and me. It could go either way. However, when I kissed Raquel, I felt a glimmer of hope, as if to say, ‘Perhaps your past isn’t the end of your story; maybe your most promising days are yet to come.’
In another finale bombshell, Tom admitted to cheating on Ariana prior to his affair with Raquel.
In a candid conversation with Scheana Shay, she inquired, “Apart from your Miami phase, has being unfaithful to Ariana been something that happened only this time, or has there been another instance?” To this, he admitted, “Yes, there was one additional occasion.
Her reaction? “You’re sick,” she said. “Just a random person?”
Initially, Tom said yes, but then he stumbled over his words and clarified, “Actually, no,” before declining to disclose further information.
A day following the final episode, Ariana shared insights about her transition to a new relationship with Daniel Wai, during an interview on the TODAY program.
Ariana expressed on May 18th that she was having a great time and felt extremely happy. She encountered him approximately ten days later at a wedding. At the time, she had no expectations. Instead, she’s been taking things very slowly, savoring each moment. It’s truly delightful to connect with someone who is so considerate, thoughtful, kind, and caring.
On May 24th, producer Alex Baskin firmly denied speculations about Tom and Raquel having a baby together, despite their ongoing relationship scandal.
“The pregnancy one was wild,” Baskin told Page Six. “She’s not pregnant by the way.”
On the June 7th reunion show, Raquel met Ariana for the first time since the controversy occurred, and offered a heartfelt apology.
She confided, “I feel deeply ashamed and humiliated that I could hide this secret from someone who has stood by me since day one.” Ariana, I am truly sorry for my deceit. I can hardly comprehend the anguish I’ve inflicted upon you. And yes, I have been incredibly self-centered; however, ‘selfish’ doesn’t fully capture the depth of the mindset I’ve found myself in. It was a terrible mistake.
Ariana did not accept. “Selfish does not f–king cover it, bitch,” she fired back. “Diabolical, demented, disgusting, subhuman—start getting a better vocabulary to describe your f–king actions because selfish does not f–king cover it.”
