I’m not sure if this is actually going to be a Vanderpump Rules Reunion Recap or just a bunch of me typing, “I refuse to transcribe all of this bullying.” I feel like this reunion ends with them all pulling knives and filleting James on national television. In response to this reunion airing thus far, Brittany has said that James calling her family a bunch of hillbillies brought out the redneck in her.
Marinate on that for a bit. Sigh.
Okay. Let’s do this if we must. Oh and regardless of how vile these people are. Please remember the commenting rules. If you haven’t read them do that now. Specifically, no fake names, no shaming people for their looks (though bad surgeries are fine, they did that to themselves.) Be best. Thanks.
Lisa Vanderpump Tells James To Finish Out The Reunion?!
James Kennedy has left the stage. I don’t blame him. Andy Cohen has to tell Kristen Doute that she is jumping into to every single question to attack James. Katie takes another moment to make it all about her and the trauma she suffers on social media for how she treats James. Perhaps she should listen to feedback. But the best part is LVP telling James he can’t leave and has to finish the reunion and defend himself. Is she going to take her own advice and show up at the RHOBH reunion? What do you think?

Schwartz says Katie is a changed woman and has matured. Then Katie dick-shames her husband some more.
Beau comes out and it’s a lovefest. LVP tells Stassi she deserves a great guy like Beau. Apparently, Patrick cheated on her. Kristen introduced Stassi and Beau. She was in a Z list movie with Beau ten years ago. Beau mentions that Stassi is on Adderall. He will pay for that comment. Oh now she says she has stopped taking it. Stassi says she didn’t speak to her mother for eight months until recently. They are good now.

Hi, I’m Tamara and I used to be a Kristen fan. Like hardcore. What was I thinking? I don’t understand why she is allowing the witches of Weho to tell her what to do in her relationship. Kristen and Carter are still together. Even though Kristen denies it. Katie and Stassi scream at Kristen. Fuck me. I am starting to feel bad for Kristen now.
Is that a red tattoo on Ariana’s left shoulder or a scar?
All the girls are bridesmaids in Brittany’s wedding. She has eleven bridesmaids and on bridesman. Heavy sigh.

Good God y’all. There are fifteen minutes left. I’m going to have to triple the usual cost of admissions for these posts. 🙂 I’m so caught up I am watching commercials. Lisa Vanderpump is virtually non-existent.
Did Jax Room With Channing Tatum?
There is a debate about whether or not Jax roomed with Channing Tatum. Jax insists he did. It was a model apartment. They all came and went. Andy points out he always says he is a work in progress. Like every single season. He’s a broken record. The abusive boyfriend who keeps saying “it will never happen again.” I don’t feel a bit sorry for Brittany though. She knew he was a snake when she picked him up. But, she wanted to be on TV. She thought she could change him. You got what you signed up for with this one Brittany. And how is that working out for you? Blind Item Reveal.
Andy Shades Scheana HARD
I totally forget Scheana existed and for that I am glad. Scheana apparently hired the hot model to sleep with here when she met him on WWHL with Nene Leakes. Andy seems pissed by that. He also tells her she doesn’t look 26. AND, that her Botox makes her look older. There is so much wrong with this. He is supposed to be the neutral host of the Vanderpump Rules reunion show. He saves her until the end to insult her looks? WTF? And I can’t stand Scheana. But was Wendy Williams would say, that was money well spent for her.

Jax tries to play the victim. It’s sad. I can’t. I’m with James who is texting on his phone. It’s back to James bashing. I’m amused that everyone thinks Brittany is “the nicest person in the room.” I’m from the south and I’ve always seen what Brittany is doing. She’s LVP Jr.
So I am so curious as to your thoughts about this Vanderpump Rules Reunion Recap that wasn’t really a Vanderpump Rules Reunion Recap.
Ariana’s left shoulder has a recent scar from a malignant melanoma. All is well now for Ariana.
Thanks for posting this. I was struggling to remember.
Will watch tommorow before I leave for work. Die hard Kristen fan. Yes she abhors James but at one time she believed he actually loved her. I get her vitriol although it is somewhat tedious. I believe LVP will show up for the reunion ( is it true they dont get paid if they pull a no show or are they paid in increments ?) You must know. I think next seasons Vanderpump Rules will be a dud. No one wants to see James getting reamed by the hypocrites on the cast. Hope he & Raquel get featured in a Vanderpump Dogs / Vanderpump Vegas inevitable spin off. Katie is a monster. Schwartz must be a masochistic limp dicked putz to put up with her endless hateful banter. Happy to see Stassi in love. Brittany & Jax can go make beer cheese. Ariana who I always liked like Lala had convinced me her 15 minutes of fame are up.Thanks for taking one for the team. This episode sounds DREADFUL.
What does it mean if I am the first one here? I patiently wait for your recap’s T.T you’re always spot on and I know if I missed something chances are you have it covered, for that I am greatful because there are screeching voices that I can’t stand to listen to when they are attacking poor James. Can’t wait for everyone’s comments here. Cheer’s.
Well Lala turned off comments on her instagram a week or so ago, could be people where saying nasty yet honest things to her. Katie is a cunt, like a super huge cunt and I cannot imagine being around her, she is not a good person. Kristen is a raging lunatic and I could care less if Carter is decent to her or not. There is a part of her that is still very into James or she wouldn’t always go batshit about him. Jax needs to fuck off, seriously. I don’t think he has really changed, not a bit. I’m kind of sad Brittany has turned out to be a game whore. I did wonder how she could leave all she knew in Kentucky to show up in Weho for Jax, surely she had seen the show and what a piece of shit he was. I do love Beau, he appears to be a great guy, and I think he has changed Stassi in good ways.
Agree completely with this comment, especially the part about Katie being a royal cunt and Kristen a total raging lunatic AND a f’d up hag.
The only female I can see having a baby and being a mother is Stassi. I don’t want to see a season of this show with everyone pregnant. I just don’t see the majority of the cast of being capable of caring for a baby.
Yes! I think Stassi would be funny and honest and loving, and would write some great first time parent books.
I need help. All week commercials ran that James crosses such a dramatic and “scandalous” line even Lisa gets upset with him. So I wait, anxiously wait to see what the hype was about. But if it happened, I missed it. What was this big reveal.
PS- where do I get my own Beau? I have such a crush on him
After the first 2 parts I’m tapping out. I’d much rather read your recaps skewering them!
The hypocrisy is killing me. They bash Raquel (who doesn’t deserve it), they make nasty comments to James, and Stassi was nagging him about texting. Of course James is going to react and they act like his behavior is so terrible when theirs is no better. He is partially at fault but he is young and the others need to look at how they acted the last few years. Jax is a perfect example as he is still working on his behavior at age 40!
Well I’m still away from my cable and the bravo app cooperating live for me todayk. Your recaps are all I have and boy do you save me from the hour of my life I cannot get back. Thankyou TT on behave of many for taking one for the team. I am convinced they will add new VR spinoff show with the hated crowd featuring James as Jax, etc. Just think if Lisa leaves RHBH they will need to do something to keep her happy. Anywho glad it’s over.
I thought everyone was dressed fine, but I did not examine each individual person too closely. I’m so happy that Stassi and Beau have found each other – I hope they make a go of it, as they are both better people with each other. TT, excellent recap as per usual – the bullying was over-the top and unnecessary.
I’m so mad at what Jax is doing to his mom. For those who didn’t watch tonight, Jax said he has no mother, because he is still mad she didn’t call him to tell him his father was dying. Well, if he was so close to his father, he would have been talking to him anyway and would have had a clue that he was ill. Also, Jax admits there is at least a good chance his father had told his mother NOT to tell the kids he was dying. So if Jax could stop thinking about only himself for one little minute and think about the terrible position his poor mother was in: her husband was dying but didn’t want her to tell the kids. So she honors his wishes and faces that terrible outcome alone. Alone. Without support she could have requested if she went against her husband’s wishes. And now she is still alone, all because Jax is a stubborn fool. He is so upset he lost his father, but now he is depriving himself of his mother–at the moment when she needs her kids the most. He is such a self-centered idiot. Brittany needs to contact her, and they certainly need to invite her to their wedding.
Katie is still terrible. So mean. She IS a bully. Kristen IS still obsessed with James. As Andy pointed out, she had to jump in on every question Andy asked James and every time James spoke.
For all his preening, Sandoval is the most decent human being in this group. He stands up for what is right, he can understand other people’s feelings, and he is loyal and forgives people. Yes, he likes to preen, but he is a kind and decent person, not utterly self-centered like the rest of them. Well, Schwartz is not totally self-centered–he is like a puppy–but he doesn’t have the courage of Sandoval. And Ariana is not as self-centered as the rest, but she is also colder–she doesn’t empathize with people as Sandoval does.
It is depressing to think of any of these people except Sandoval having children. (I’m not counting Beau, since he is not a full-time cast member. I do think he is kind and decent too, not self-centered.)
Jax’s mother could also have been having difficulty accepting the reality that she was about to lose her husband so she kept saying he was fine because that’s what she hoped was true. In her grief and fear she got it wrong and Jax has zero compassion for her. She’s now being left to grieve on her own and is being excluded from a significant moment in his life as punishment.
Jax should ask himself what his father would say about him cutting off and isolating his mother while she’s already dealing with a significant loss. “Make good choices” indeed.
His narcissism has never been more apparent. His father’s death is all about him. His feelings are central and no one else’s feelings matter. His mother’s loss? Nothing compared to his pain and his anger.
Brittany should be paying close attention. This is her future if she disappoints him. She’s just too dumb or thirsty to see it.
For those not understanding the fued with Jax and his mom…I have been extremely close with my parents my whole life. Spoke to them daily. I live far away and have children. My mother became ill and as her illness progressed, my parents made a pact to not tell me the degree of her illness. My mom would pretend to be doing normal activities and text me things she was doing or cooking. It was all a lie. I was so devestated and ill prepared for the phone call that she had died. I would have been there so much earlier had I known. So I understand both sides. I’ve never understood their decision but I certainly didn’t cut my dad off. So by saying if Jax was really close to his dad he would have known is just plain untrue.
As a parent and a child of a parent that I watched slowly and painfully wither away, I wouldn’t wish seeing that ON MY WORST ENEMY. Your parents want you to see them as vibrant people; not people that need their diapers changed or are so horrifically thin that they look like holocaust victims. Jax has no children and the means to visit the dad he “loved so much”. He chose not to and that is what should be eating at him, not his mom who needs him right now. He’s a narcissistic asshole who will make Brittany’s life miserable especially when they have children, God forbid. I wouldn’t want my kids to know either; that’s what loving parents do. They want to shield their children.
Apparently Jax and his sister knew he was ill and were calling but the Mom would answer and say he was sleeping and would call them later when in fact he was in ICU. Mom should’ve known better than to keep her kids from the Dad if he was so very ill no matter what he said. He would’ve been drugged up and in no condition to make these kind of decisions.
Then why did she do it? What benefit would it have been to her to keep her children away?
I swear Jax mentioned that some point that his mom was leaving the Dad or requested a divorce, but he passed away so quickly. Anyone else recall that or am I making this up? I think that has contributed to Jax’s attitude towards her.
I remember something about a divorce between jax’s parents being mentioned on the show as well. I don’t recall the details surrounding it but i definitely remember something being said about it.
I think individually most of the cast are quite decent human beings. That being said: Katie, Lala and Jax leave a bad taste in my mouth whenever they’re on my screen. They seem to be, from the limited time I have watched them, the “misery loves company” type paired with over the top, undeserving egos and a snotty “I’m always right” attitude.
Is Lala also
Going to be a bridesmaid ?
Yes Brittany asked her to be a bridesmaid. After Lala and Randall took her and Jax on a PJ trip. Jax and Randall are super tight which tells me all I need to know about them both.
12 bridesmaids. If I could afford a huge lavish wedding I guess I would do it, but I think I’d prefer to use that money to pay off my student loans or put a down payment on a home and reduce my monthly bill. I hope Jax and Brittany can maintain their lifestyle after paying so much money for their fairytale wedding.
Katie and her mocking James when they were talking about how he helps his family and was hurt when his parents divorced made me want to punch her in the face. I don’t condone violence but I really did want to punch her when she was saying “aww your parents divorced whaaah”.
I have never felt such anger while watching a reality tv show. This show no longer entertains me. It causes me to feel ragey. Jax, Brittany, Lala and Katie all need a good old fashioned butt whoopin.
Yep, ragey. It leaves me feeling shit**y. Maybe this old cast needs to move on. Bring in the new SUR employees.
I am utterly confused as to why the whole pack hates Raquel for staying with James but Brittany staying with Jax is ok??? Can someone explain that to me?
They hate Raquel because she’s young, new, pretty and killing it on social.
The difference between the two is that Britney knows Jack’s is a piece of shit But she think she can change him. Raquel doesn’t believe anything they tell her about James even when it’s coming straight from the horse’s mouth
I couldn’t believe how hard the witches of WEHO went after James’ parents. It was appalling. Maybe it’s a cultural thing but I was raised to respect my elders. They may not be ideal, but even James’ parents don’t deserve to be lambasted like that in national TV.
The Toms are the most decent and likeable people on VPR.
This is a pattern with Bravo casts. Once a show catches on and gets high ratings, the players seem to devolve into vile & vicious humans to keep the viewers interested. VPR now is in the same category as most HW franchises & The Shahs of Sunset. Let’s hope Southern Charms falls into this pile of shit.
Southern Charm *DOESN’T* fall into…..
I disagree with you. The Witches went after James’ Mom because she’s disgusting and doesn’t deserve the respect. She applauded her son for spitting at Kristen and also stole Kristen’s credit card when she was with James and went on a shopping spree at her plastic surgeons office. James should be thanking Kristen for not pressing charges,
Yes, James mother stole money from Kristen.
Would not watch because of the bashing of James last week and figured it would be carried over. Also, Katy, Lala & Kristen just make my stomach turn over. What do men see in these three women? Tom was a wimp for marrying Katy anyway. She pushed him into a marriage he was not ready for. Frankly, I hope he gets a divorce before they make a baby.
There are Kristen fans but people still hate Scheana?! I am still Team Scheana—she is the least awful by far, with the exception of Sandoval. I’m not a big fan of Beau. Talk about a type you recognize. Ick. That said, there’s no reason to disparage low-budget indie films as “Z-list”. That film might have been poor, but plenty of low-budget, independently funded films with unknown actors are excellent. Go watch Primer, made for less than $20k.
I really think James’ time on the show is done. No one likes him, everything makes him angry and defensive, and he is not allowed to return the the Vanderpump restaurants, which makes him cry, I cant watch another season of that, and I would imagine it would be better for his own well being if he left and started his own thing.
I am totally done with the show for this year, but will watch it next season, cant help myself.
I really like the Witches of WeHo. I guess I fall on the side with the mean girls.
James needs to be OFF this show and into intensive therapy. It was frightening watching him. I could not believe how he was talking to Daddy Cohen.
It seems like Brittany is more into the wedding and being the bride than into the actual marriage. I don’t know this, just a feeling I get. I give it two years.
Kristen’s crazy makes me happy.
Adrianna is a bit boring and I think Sandoval is a disloyal friend.
Who are you and what have you done with JoJo! YOU BETTER LET HER GO NOW! I threw up in my mouth at “Daddy Cohen” and then it just kept getting worse.
Hahaha! Girl you know I love ya! I absolutely despise Andy Cohen.
Told you I was a green eyed monster about the Paris shopping trip!
Agree with you 100%. I don’t mind Katie at all, love love Stassi, and Kristen has grown on me. James is a child and doesn’t deserve the 2934 chances that LVP has given him. I also found it telling when Sandoval attempted to call James on on his extracurricular activities he partakes in while drinking, and how defensive James got. Perhaps a trip to rehab would do him well.
The Witches of Weho basically took over the whole reunion this year, Katie the true “Wicked Witch” was horrible to everyone! Why does she have so much hate for James? As a diehard PumpRules fan I remember when Jax said disgusting things to Katie (Season 3) and she asked Lisa not to put her on the same shift as Jax anymore 🤨 Sound familiar? 🤔. Poor Schwartz looked terrified as she constantly bashed him even when he supported her #Sad
Stassi tried to play the “Good Witch” especially when her Beau was by her side but the rest of the time was a massive fail. Kristen the “Sad Witch” actually made me feel sorry for her and I was angry with her due to her obvious obsession with James for a story line this season. I do hope she finds happiness and a new story line next season.
