Is Vanderpump Rules NEVER Coming Back?! Details Behind Delay Of New Season...

Is Vanderpump Rules over as we know it?!

As we all know, after an explosive last season, the Bravo series has been off the air. Plus, it delayed filming for Season 12 (which would normally start around July) to give the friend group time to recover after tons of feuds broke out as a result of Scandoval — AKA Tom Sandoval‘s affair with Rachel Leviss behind Ariana Madix‘s back.

But now, it sounds like the show may NEVER return… at least not with the OG cast!

Wait, WHAT??

On Monday, sources told DailyMail.com that producers have been auditioning new folks to potentially re-cast the ensemble, if needed. Why? Because they’re stuck in negotiation drama! The source dished:

“They’re still negotiating with a few stars who are holding out for more money and are unwilling to compromise.”

LOLz! They’re all trying to get their bag now that the show is such a hit! But it looks like that might backfire. Oof!

There’s more in the way of a new season than just the money, though. Another source revealed that the next season may end up being a “farewell season” if the cast can’t start making amends. Nooooo! The source opened up:

“There’s so many issues between various cast members and it’s no longer an organic group of friends that want to hang out with each other. […] In the past they’ve been able to come back from some of the worst fights imaginable, so there’s still hope that they can all move forward and have a fresh start.”

A look back at last season proved things were as tense as ever! Ariana largely steered clear of her ex-boyfriend and his BFF Tom Schwartz and struck up a deep friendship with Katie Maloney amid beef with Scheana Shay and Lala Kent. Lala even broke the fourth wall during the finale while complaining about Ariana walking off set. It was a s**t show! No wonder production doesn’t want to deal with all of them if they can’t resolve things! Hah!

That said, it’s all still up in the air right now. The source continued:

“Nothing has been decided yet as far as the future of the show, but it can’t continue this way so things are definitely going to change.”

Another source close to the production confirmed that conversations about casting and the future of the series “are still ongoing,” but that a decision will be made soon. And while the OGs fight for their spot, other waiters at Lisa Vanderpump‘s restaurant SUR are “desperate” to get cast amid the possible shakeup!

In the meantime, several VPR stars are moving over to the spin-off series, The Valley. Both Lala and Scheana are expected to wind up there in the next season. According to the outlet, they weren’t supposed to be on the show originally, but when it was clear that VPR wouldn’t be filming this year, they were offered lucrative last-minute deals. Sandoval has even talked about a potential move now that he has reconciled with Jax Taylor.

Meanwhile, other stars — like James Kennedy and Ari — are focused on other career opportunities, such as his summer Las Vegas DJ residency and her hosting gig on Love Island USA. Lisa has also shifted her focus to her Hulu series Vanderpump Villa and has plans to spend more time in Las Vegas. So, no wonder they aren’t in a rush to move ahead with Pump Rules!

By the way, even Rachel — who walked away after Scandoval — is done with the Bravo universe! She just announced the end of her podcast, Rachel Goes Rogue, which was essentially a VPR recap show! They’re ALL seemingly moving on! Wow!

It’ll be wild to see what happens next. It’s hard to imagine some of these stars would walk away from the show over negotiation issues after years of trying to get as successful as they are now, ya know? But sometimes money gets in the way! Whoever steps in to replace the current cast is going to have some big shoes to fill!

Reactions?? Would U watch if the cast is replaced? OR would you rather the show just end? Sound OFF (below)!
