The excitement amongst Bravo fans was palpable as they almost had the chance to see the original cast of Vanderpump Rules reunite for one last hurrah. However, Lala Kent revealed that the idea of a final season fizzled out before it could even make it to the cameras.
During an episode of the Untraditionally Lala podcast, Kent shared that there were discussions about bringing back the original cast for a short six-to-eight-episode season to catch up on where each member is now. The plan was for the audience to see the cast in their current life situations, but unfortunately, this never came to fruition.
Kent expressed her doubts about the potential reunion, stating that after more than a decade of ups and downs, the idea of revisiting the past felt unnecessary. She believed that other cast members shared her sentiment and ultimately, the idea of a final season was abandoned.
Even on the reboot side of things—with the Vanderpump Rules refresh and Kent’s new role in The Valley, uncertainty lingered. The production team and the new cast were unsure of how to move forward, leading to further confusion about the future of the franchise.
Despite fans’ hopes for a final curtain call, it seems that the original Vanderpump Rules will remain a nostalgic memory. The future of the show remains uncertain, leaving viewers wondering what will come next for the beloved series.
Catch new episodes of Vanderpump Rules Season 12 on Bravo on Tuesdays at 9 p.m. EST. Stay updated on Kent’s latest projects with her podcasts, Untraditionally Lala and An Unlikely Affair with Ambyr Childers, premiering on Jan. 8, 2026.
As the dust settles on the Vanderpump Rules saga, one thing is clear: the show’s legacy will always hold a special place in the hearts of fans.
