‘Vanderpump Rules’ final reunion to reveal a shocking twist
Scandoval apparently has one more bombshell coming.
The “Vanderpump Rules” cheating scandal that keeps on giving isn’t over yet, because the reality show’s producers are teasing another big shocking reveal.
Tom Sandoval, 40, notoriously cheated on his girlfriend of nine years, Ariana Madix, 37, with her ex-friend, Raquel Leviss, 28. The news made waves when it came out in March, with the event dubbed “Scandoval.”
Ever since, a steady stream of further revelations have arrived about what really happened and who knew about it. Now, with the third part of the three-part reunion is coming out Wednesday it’s been teased that another major admission will come out.
Executive producer Alex Baskin told Variety that a “twist” is coming — a disclosure so shocking that it could impact whether the cast members agree to sign onto Season 11 of the hit show. It’s such a surprise that most cast members supposedly don’t know.
Here’s everything to know about what it could be.
The whole thing was fake
Fans have entertained conspiracy theories that the entire Scandoval was manufactured and “staged” to bring audiences back to the stale reality show — a plan which, if real, certainly worked. However, when The Post reached out to Bravo, the channel denied this.
Lisa Vanderpump knew about Scandoval for a long time
There has been speculation that Lisa Vanderpump knew about Sandoval and Leviss’ affair long before it came to light. Vanderpump has played coy, telling Page Six, “I mean, I never kind of give the game away.”
However, on May 27, she tweeted a denial: “Ok … no I didn’t know … until a minute before you all did … I wish I would’ve tho.”
Raquel Leviss is pregnant
Rumors have spread that Sandoval knocked up Leviss during their affair. In a now-deleted video, a TikTok user claims she heard from sources close to Leviss that the former beauty queen was “hiding out” at her grandmother’s house in Arizona with a bun in the oven. Executive producer Baskin said to Page Six, “The pregnancy [rumor] was wild. She’s not pregnant by the way.”
Leviss is reportedly in treatment at a mental health facility.
‘Vanderpump Rules’ is moving to Vegas
There have been rumblings that the show might change locations. It has long filmed in West Hollywood at Sur Restaurant & Lounge, Pump Restaurant & Lounge and Tom Tom Restaurant & Bar. Pump recently closed, and Vanderpump has been building up her empire in Sin City, sparking rumors about a big move. But, last month, a Bravo fan shared a screenshot from a Discord chat where cast member Scheana Shay said rumors about filming moving to Vanderpump’s restaurant in Las Vegas were “def not true.”
Lisa Vanderpump is moving to Vegas
There’s been gossip that the show’s matriarch sold her Villa Rosa estate and is heading to Vegas herself, which would impact the show.
“I bet money she says she is moving to Vegas,” one fan tweeted.
Jax and Brittany are coming back
“Vanderpump Rules” stars Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright left the show in 2020. So, a big “twist” could be them returning. Since leaving, they’re ripped apart their old pal Sandoval for being “devilish.” So if they returned to the mix, that would certainly shake things up.
The next season will be set at Schwartz and Sandoval’s
Sandoval and co-star Tom Schwartz are partial owners of the Tom Tom bar, which they launched in 2018, and of Schwartz & Sandy’s Lounge. A lot of Season 10 showcases the problems they faced opening the bar. So, it would be a shake-up if Season 11 primarily films there, instead of at the main Vanderpump spots.
Ariana Madix has stated that she does not want to film with Sandoval and Leviss again. So, if the show moved to mostly filming at Sandoval’s bar, that would impact her choice to return for Season 11.
Brock is having an affair with Raquel Leviss
After Scandoval, Shay, 38, asked her husband, Brock Davies, 30, if he also had an affair with Leviss. She said he denied it. But reportedly Shay got physical with Leviss during a heated confrontation. Shay has since clarified, “My hands ended up on her after she grabbed my wrist. No, I did not punch her.”
If it comes to light that Davies really did have a fling with Leviss, too, that would explain the “punching” rumors.
Scandoval started much earlier than everyone thought
One fan on Reddit speculated that the big “twist” is that Sandoval and Leviss’ affair began much earlier than everyone thought. “I think the big reveal is just going to be the timeline,” one fan said. According to Sandoval, the affair started in August 2022, which means that he cheated on Madix for nearly seven months.
The final reunion episode airs Wednesday, June 7 (9 p.m. on Bravo). An additional “Secrets Revealed” special episode will air on June 14 (also at 9 p.m. on Bravo).
