We finally have a date for the Vanderpump Rules reunion—and the first footage is just as intense as you’d imagine.
Following next week’s season 10 finale, titled “#Scandoval,” Bravo will begin airing a three-part reunion special on May 24 at 9 p.m. ET/PT. Yes, we will finally get to see Andy Cohen wheedle out the full story of Tom Sandoval’s affair with Raquel Leviss…right in front of his ex-girlfriend Ariana Madix, as well as Lisa Vanderpump, James Kennedy, Katie Maloney, Lala Kent, and Tom Schwartz. Schaena Shay also joins the group when Leviss is not present, due to the latter’s infamous restraining order.
It’s clear from the explosive trailer, which dropped on May 11, that Sandoval and Leviss spend the majority of the special in the hot seat—and they don’t seem to handle the pressure well. “They’re making you and me out to be pathological liars,” Sandoval tells Leviss in footage taken from one of their trailers. Sure…it’s everyone else that’s the problem…
More than once, Sandoval loses his cool as he’s confronted by his fellow cast members, particularly Kennedy. “Get in my face again, I will fuck you up, motherfucker,” he tells the British reality star during one heated moment, to which Kennedy replies, “You’re a worm with a mustache.”
At another point, Sandoval asks producers to stop recording him while outside of the studio. “I need a break from filming,” he says, voice rising. “Stop fucking filming me! I don’t want a camera in my fucking goddamn face!”
He doesn’t even seem to have his usual reliable backup from bestie Tom Schwartz, who catches Sandoval by surprise when he says he learned about the affair in late August (you can see if that lines up with previous statements here). “Oh no, did you not put your timelines together to match?” Kent taunts.
