Just over a year after Lisa Vanderpump’s brother committed suicide, her mother, Jean Vanderpump has passed away. Her mother lived in England. She was 84. According to Daily Mail, she died on Monday of this week.
Vanderpump Rules has been filming. I’m not sure if it is for next season or for a spin-off for Jax and Britanny’s wedding. The wedding is on Saturday, June 29th in Kentucky. They have filmed numerous bachelor and bachelorette parties thus far.
Clearly, Lisa Vanderpump will be flying to England soon if she has not gone already to make arrangements. It is unlikely she will be able to film for awhile.
So sorry for her my god such awful losses in the space of a year:(
How can anyone feel sorry for this awfully stupid and very, very UGLY woman who has virtually ruined the life of such a loving and sweet man who adores her. His wife uses him all of the time, and she could care less.
We are not feeling sorry for this women, we are feeling EMPATHY – empathy is when we put ourselves in another’s shoes and understand their feelings- i.e. someone who has lost their parent, and we acknowledge her grief and sorrow. Sorry is sympathy when we feel pity for someone’s misfortune. Ironically Lisa doesn’t demonstrate much of either, but I’ don’t want to be her which is while I will acknowledge her pain.
Such horrible news, heartbreaking.
Did Lisa have a close relationship with her mom? I don’t recall she or Ken speaking about their parents(not that that means anything).
When it rains, it pours.
Regardless of how I’ve felt about the most recent RHOBH and VPR seasons, my heart goes out to LVP. Losing loved ones is never easy, and there’s never an official timeline or set of rules on how to grieve.
Maybe it’s because my Nonno passed away last week, but I found the people making jokes in extremely poor taste. How would they feel if someone did this when they lose a parent.
As someone else said when it comes to losing a parent or child it’s off limits. To make a joke about it makes you seem insensitive and cruel
Please don’t ban me TT. I’m just really sensitive when it comes to someone losing a family member. Regardless if they were close or not. It still hurts
Poor Lisa! This is a lot to go through.
Whatever you do, don’t send her a hand written thank you note.
@Dena Oh hell no.
I said what I said ?
Hahahahaha …. too soon?
? Perhaps for some
Dena,I was going to write the exact same thing.
? Thanks Karen. If she wasn’t a conniving, gaslighting, entitled, opportunitstic asshole who uses personal tragedies to her advantage and as leverage against her foes, I would send my sympathy. She’ll be fine without it, she will work those crocodile tears to her advantage, I’m sure.
Her mother died. You don’t actually know her just what you see on TV and regardless of any of her behaviour you think it’s appropriate to make jokes about the death of someone’s mother. Disgusting.
Not that I need to defend my position to internet screen names, but Lisa’s behavior transcends her TV personae. Her own assertions on Social media, interviews, public commentary and what she doesn’t say all contribute to her stank. Clutch your pearls if you choose, but being an arrogant asshole has its consequences.
Indeed it does, “Dena.”
I wouldn’t make jokes about the death of anyone’s mother. It’s in very poor taste and ironically shows you displaying a number of the behaviours you accuse others of.
I’m with you, Dena
(I do feel sympathy for LVP for losing her mother, but…)
This comment is comedy gold!!!!!
Hahaha thanks Something Clever. ?
Aww poor Lisa. May her mum rest in peace. I hope she doesn’t get accused about lying about her grief again. Sometimes People really are the absolute worst.
Poor Lisa. She has really been hit hard in one year with life changing events. There is no comfort when one loses a mother or a brother. So glad she has stepped away from all that negtivity. Hoping she is getting the support she needs and is left alone by the nosy media. Sending much love to Lisa.
I didn’t even know that her mother was still alive since she hasn’t talked about her on the show but spoke about Nanna K (?). Man, she has had a rough year.
Lisa has openly stated that most of her English family were appalled she would go on reality TV & were horrified by her decision. I can understand that as although I am Australian most of the people I know are pretty horrified by anyone they know considering it, although times are changing as the Reality franchises continue to expand. 10 years ago they tried to make a Judge Judy here but they couldn’t get anyone to bring cases on the show. I think that would have changed now.
Also I have heard people remark that she is not close to her family so why be so upset – in my experience it is often those who don’t have particularly close relationships with their family are often the ones most torpedoed by death.
Lisa is a very calculated and manipulative individual, who is frankly too self absorbed and satisfied to have empathy for many others – which is quite frankly why she is perfect for reality tv. However she is human and we don’t have the right to judge her grieving process.
Poor LVP, she’s been through it this past year. It’s never easy to lose your Mom at any age. Hopefully she takes some time off from filming.
I don’t care who you are, or how bad people think you are. ALL bets are off when a parent or child dies- and that means we all take a moment, behave in a civilized manner, and offer prayers and good wishes to all involved. It’s called respect for humanity. As a woman of Italian ancestry, I can always take up ignoring you tomorrow (as I have for the last 5 years), but for now, we grieve, and bury the deceased.
I love this. I actually don’t mind Lisa, despite seeing through her. I find them all hypocritical and manipulative.
I also would not be surprised if this year she has been accused based on past actions rather than current behaviour and for once is innocent of the charges, but karma is indeed a bitch.
My condolences to the Vanderpump-Todds in their time of loss.
Why would I ban you. I think we should all be compassionate when someone’s mother dies. And excuse any and all behaviors that happen thereafter. I know I drunk dialed everyone I ever knew, LIKE IN MY WHOLE LIFE sobbing to tell them. Then I went to a hotel with one of my exes and had a lot of sex. I know it sounds weird but the loss of a parent is awful and sometimes you just need to be close to someone. He drove two hours to get to me. And I needed that.
Orgasms, much like make-up, can cover a multitude of sins. And pain. True story
Funny, well not ha ha funny, I also had grief sex – nine months later she got a granddaughter.
Now She’s probably sitting up there laughing her ass off because she did used the old curse ” I hope you have a kid just like you.” I didn’t. However my Kid moved back home and brought 2 girls with her who are just like me. I’m sorry Mom.
Maybe now she knows how Eileen felt.
Eileen showed up when several family member’s died in on season. And LVP treated her like shit.
Empathy not a core strength of LVP unfortunately, well not for work friends anyway.
Agree wholeheartedly. She lacks empathy therefore will not be fortunate to receive any. I am not making light of her mothers death ( its extremely traumatic I know, firsthand ) but she needs to realise what she puts out to the universe will boomerang back upon her like a machete. It’s sad that such an accomplished woman severely lacks basic common courtesy & decency. If she treated others with compassion & empathy she would be surrounded with people who would support her in this tone of grief. Heads up friends Give a little get a little Give a lot get a lot. It’s that simple.
This. All day this. You reap what you sow, and this is just another opportunity for Lisa to leverage her position to garner sympathy from her rabid Vander freak fans.
I’m beginning to think there must be something wrong with my ability to judge people’s characters. I’ve always liked LVP and Ken and still do. Maybe it’s because I was born and raised in England, and still have dual citizenship, but I usually understand why she behaves the way she does. Not that it’s picture perfect, but she’s no less perfect than most of the other Housewives. I must admit I haven’t watched each episode faithfully, so I might be missing important little nuances. Not playing with a full deck, as they say. Same with Kyle, it still upsets me tremendously that she and Lisa are no longer great friends.
Lisa has had a horrible year, and I send nothing but love and best wishes to her during this difficult time. Life isn’t always fair.
Hope this made sense, I just got home an hour ago from a lovely evening in our local emergency room passing a kidney stone. I’d rather have a baby, but I am nicely drugged up finally and not feeling any pain now. Sorry, Tamara, I know you don’t like to hear about our aches and pains, but it might explain why I’m feeling extremely generous and well-disposed towards all members of humanity right now, especially doctors who knows just the right pain meds to prescribe to an aging granny.
Sincerest condolences to LVP. I hope she takes enough time to grieve properly and returns refreshed in both spirit and body.

You have a very full deck, Rose. Always gracious and kind. Feel better soon.
Hey “katherine 2.0” I couldn’t respond on the original thread where you commented, but I’m glad you agree with me. ?♀️
Fuck off, troll.
So you show up to personally attack me on a comment I made, then you go on to verbally abuse me when I’ve not done so with you, but I’m the troll? ? ?
Ah, I just got a tip off from one of your commenters here (who I won’t throw under the bus) on why your temperament is uncannily….. Familiar ?. I guess when you drive off people who comment on your site, every new commenter is a troll, no? ? Have a nice life Er…. “katherine”.
Worst anniversary gift: kidney stones
Best anniversary gift: Percocet for the kidney stones
You always make it nice EnlishRose, glad you’re feeling no pain!
I have my opinions about LVP personally but I have sympathy for her and wish her and her family nothing but a way to find peace with this loss.
Not a fan of hers. However, this is a time of of mourning and for her to find peace with her mothers passing. When tragedy strikes on families, no matter how much you love or betray the person, just be kind and not judgmental. There are always two sides to EVERY story and the trust typically lies someplace in the middle. Not enough kindness in this world sometimes
I hope Nanny Kay is still feeling well.
