The season 11 finale of Vanderpump Rules was one for the books—no, for real, there's so much to unpack here. Tom Sandoval met his ex Ariana Madix's new beau, Daniel Wai, Lala Kent and Katie Maloney debated over whether staying on VPR was healing or hurting her, and Scheana Shay was seemingly torn between her friendships with both Sandoval and Ariana.

Anyway! Lala and Katie's convo about Ariana's involvement in the series made fans wonder whether she'd be exiting the show altogether. To add more fuel to the fire, Ariana made a dramatic exit when Sandoval crashed a conversation between her and Scheana in an attempt to apologize. As Scheana explained her chat with Ariana to Sandoval, producers tried to stop the Chicago star from leaving. “Not happening,” she said as she gathered her things. “He does not deserve to speak to me. He does not get access to me.” 😬

Did the ‘Vanderpump Rules’ Cast Get Raises Ahead of Season 11?

“I knew that it would take a little bit of time for the cast expectations to settle.”

Tom Sandoval Says He “Fought So Hard” to Be With Rachel Leviss After ‘Scandoval’ Affair

“It’s heartbreaking to go through. I was fully in love with her.”

Ahead of the season finale, Ariana appeared on Watch What Happens Live! with Katie and explained that she wasn't in a "financial place" to quit the show after season 10. Now, she made it to third place on Dancing With the Stars, made her Broadway debut in Chicago, and is set to host Love Island USA on Peacock. Not to mention, she's probably made a killing from brand deals and is set to make more with her new sandwich shop. In other words: she's booked 👏 and 👏 busy 👏, which could potentially lead to her leaving Vanderpump.

Ariana nor Bravo have confirmed whether she will return for another season (or if there's another season). We'll be holding out for the Vanderpump three-part reunion, which kicks off Tuesday, May 14 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Bravo. Extended and uncensored versions of the reunion will be available to stream next day on Peacock.
