The latest season of ‘Vanderpump Rules’ wrapped up with a bang, leaving fans curious about what’s next for the cast. In the finale episode titled “Plot Twist,” a producer dropped a bombshell, declaring “that’s the end,” but it appears it’s just the end of the season, not the entire series.

The drama centered around Ariana Madix and Tom Sandoval, especially due to his affair with Rachel Leviss. Ariana’s decision not to film scenes with her ex caused tension among her friends, notably Scheana Shay and her husband, Brock Davies.

Vanderpump Rules pauses Season 12 production: Andy Cohen explains

TMZ was the first to report that Vanderpump Rules’ next season won’t start filming until later than usual. Usually, they kick off production in May and film all summer, but this time, they’re giving the cast a break to let them “breathe a bit” after the drama surrounding Sandoval.

The network hopes for some fresh drama not involving the scandal he sparked in spring 2023. Another reason for the delay is Ariana Madix’s gig as host of Love Island USA, where she’ll be filming in Fiji for a few months.

Although TMZ didn’t say exactly when filming will start for season 12, they mentioned it won’t be a whole year off. Andy Cohen shared his thoughts on the schedule change during an episode of Sirius XM’s Andy Cohen Live: “Sometimes you want to pick cameras right up quickly, because there’s stuff happening and you want to get in there right away. And sometimes you do want people to live their lives and see how things develop and you know, so, I think it’s a very good idea.”
