In the trailer for the “Vanderpump Rules” reunion, Ariana Madix is shown bursting into tears after watching the Season 11 ending in real time. Host Andy Cohen explains that the entire cast was brought together to watch the ending and get their real-time reactions due to the shared experiences they have had over the past decade. Madix is shocked and hurt by what she sees in the scene, and tearfully expresses her feelings. The moment in question involves her ex Tom Sandoval, who emotionally tells her that his actions are not an act. Madix insists that she wants him out of her life and away from her.
The preview also hints at tense moments between Madix and former friend Lala Kent, as well as a heated confrontation between Katie Maloney and Jo Wenberg, who is the on-and-off lover of Maloney’s ex-husband Tom Schwartz. However, the trailer does not address the apparent fallout between Madix and her longtime bestie Scheana Shay. Shay recently told Page Six that the reunion did not provide an opportunity for resolution, and their friendship is not where it was a year ago. The current season has seen Shay dealing with complicated feelings about potentially repairing her fractured dynamic with Sandoval.
During a March appearance on “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen,” Madix expressed disappointment with some of the things Shay had said in scenes not involving her. She was not aware of hurtful comments being made behind her back during filming, and was hurt by Shay’s attitude towards her. The upcoming three-part Season 11 reunion of “Vanderpump Rules” is set to premiere on May 14 on Bravo. Madix’s emotional reaction to the ending, along with the tensions between cast members, is expected to be a central focus of the reunion episodes. Fans are eager to see how the conflicts and relationships will be addressed and potentially resolved in the highly anticipated reunion.
