While some things never change, the cast of Vanderpump Rules is used to a shake-up … and a touch-up.
Vanderpump Rules was introduced to Bravo viewers during a special episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills in January 2013. Season 1 starred Lisa Vanderpump, Stassi Schroeder, Scheana Shay, Jax Taylor, Katie Maloney, Tom Sandoval and Kristen Doute.
Tom Schwartz, Peter Madrigal, Laura-Leigh, Kristina Kelly, Jen Bush and Jeremy Davidson all had recurring roles during the early seasons of the show.
By season 3, Schwartz was upgraded to a series regular and Ariana Madix and James Kennedy had joined the cast. Lala Kent, Faith Stowers and Brittany Cartwright started appearing in season 4.
News broke in June 2020 ahead of season 9 that the network was cutting ties with Stassi and Kristen for their racially insensitive comments in the past. After “Scandoval” cast a cloud on season 11 of the series, Bravo announced in November 2024 that season 12 would feature an entirely new cast.
