Ariana Madix “Hated” every second of the reunion, so no one would be surprised if she “quit” Vanderpump Rules. You can also see a picture of Diane Keaton visiting “Something About Her.”
If Ariana Madix decided to leave Vanderpump Rules before season 12, reportedly no one would be surprised.
As she readies herself to go back to New York City for a second stint on Broadway as Roxie Hart in Chicago, an insider revealed that Ariana may be leaving Bravo permanently after “[hating]” every second of the season 11 reunion, in which she faced off against Lala Kent, 33, and Scheana Shay, 39. The insider was speaking to her and Katie Maloney at their recently opened sandwich shop, Something About Her.

As Pump Rules fans will recall, Lala and Scheana voiced frustrations over Ariana refusing to film with Tom Sandoval, 41, at the season 11 finale, suggesting that she owed it to the rest of the cast to do her part and sit down with her cheating ex-boyfriend — whom she was living with at the time.
Lala even suggested that Ariana’s close friend and co-owner of Something About Her, Katie, 37, felt that Ariana didn’t share enough during filming but kept quiet to keep the peace between them and not jeopardize their shared business. And following the taping, Lala unfollowed both Ariana and Katie on Instagram.
Earlier this year, when asked about her potential return to the show, Ariana admitted she was unsure.
“I think ultimately it would have to make sense for me,” Ariana explained to Us Weekly. “Our show has always thrived, it’s always at its best when it’s at its most authentic and real and I have to be able to show up and be real and be authentic in order for it to make sense for me. So that’s the question I’d be asking myself going into it.”
In other Ariana Madix news, she recently reacted to her surprise guest at Something About Her on her Instagram Story.
After Katie’s mom, Teri Maloney, shared an image of herself and Diane, Ariana reshared the post, saying, “The absolutely LEGEND that is [Diane Keaton] … I will never recover from this.”
Vanderpump Rules is currently on pause ahead of its upcoming 12th season.
