Scheana Shay and Ariana Madix from Vanderpump Rules are both addressing rumors circulating in the reality TV universe that involve them. The first rumor by Deuxmoi was supposedly about Shay not tipping well at Chargers games, which was surprising to some considering her behavior at a previous event where she was reportedly overly nice to the servers. The rumor also mentioned another costar, likely Stassi Schroeder, who had a positive tipping experience with the same anonymous tipster. Shay responded to the claims on Instagram by stating that she had only ordered a margarita recently and left a $50 tip at the open bar.
Another rumor mentioned in the podcast by guest host Thea de Sousa claimed that Vanderpump Rules was gearing up to film season 12, which would be the show’s last and would only be in production for three weeks. The reason cited for the short season was the rising costs of production as every cast member received a salary bump with each new season. Sousa mentioned that season 10 was supposed to be the last due to high costs, but season 12 was potentially greenlit with shortened episodes to reduce expenses. However, these are just rumors, and no official confirmation has been given about the show’s future.
Ariana Madix reacted incredulously to the rumor of Vanderpump Rules season 12 being in production, responding with emojis that expressed disbelief. It was later clarified by an insider that discussions were still ongoing regarding the new season and that filming had been delayed due to Tom Sandoval’s affair with Rachel Leviss, leading to his split from Madix. The aftermath of this drama was captured for additional episodes of the show, and Bravo decided to take an extended pause before moving forward with season 12. As of now, no new updates have been provided as the cast members explore new opportunities during the hiatus.
Despite the swirling rumors, Vanderpump Rules continues to be popular among audiences and is currently streaming on Peacock. The show has faced various challenges and controversies over the years, but its cast members have remained at the center of attention. As discussions about the future of the show continue, fans eagerly await official confirmation about season 12 and what it may entail. In the meantime, Shay and Madix are addressing the rumors circulating around them, showcasing the ongoing drama and intrigue that keeps viewers engaged with the reality TV series.
