Vanderpump Rules affair!!

[PawsAndReflection]

I can't be the only Bravo fan on here can I? I have no one IRL to talk to about this!!

Real name is Rachel - people are now calling her that to piss her off I think.

Ok I've been sucked in and signed up to Hayu. Just skipped to season 10 as I haven't watched it in yonks and 3 episodes in and Sandoval is an even bigger douche than I remember. Really thinks he's Billy Big Balls.

Hope he bought shares in Hayu 🤣
Ep 6 is early Aug - they started hooking up around then so it will be interesting to see how obvs it is on screen. He’s not looking great and flashback clips surfacing are bad too. I’ve read that production recorded him explaining to Ariana why he didn’t tell her because he was worried about her mental health 😵‍💫💀

Ahh ok, I've been looking for clues already! 🤣 Bit quick off the mark there. Looking forward to post episode 6!

Clues to narcissism started season 1 🤣

True!

I was watching WWHL with Katie and Andy asked her if she knew if the affair started in ep6

They know Raquel and Tim were definitely sleeping together in October, but as ep 6 was in August, they don't know if it stated then. Katie thinks it did start either in ep6 or soon after.

*Tim????

I dont know who Tim is. I meant Tom😁

I feel like Schwartz is in an abusive relationship with Sandoval. Sandoval literally steamrollers over Schwartz so much to the point where it’s literally the reason Katie left him.

schwartz hated the name of the restaurant but Sandoval got his way. Everything is about Sandoval being front and center - even the way they arrived at the Tom Tom opening with Schwartz in the side car.

I think that the success of Schwartz and Sandy and possibly even Tom Tom literally rests on when Schwartz found out. If he knew for months, and covered it up there’s no way back for their businesses. Not when they literally rely on bravo fans visiting.

I think it's odd she can't get name from Rachel to Raquel, very eighties and reminds me of only fools and horses.
Racquel needs validation, she seems to get that from sexual attention from men, especially if there is a 'win' over another woman. Whether this is conscious or not. I'm not convinced she sits there thinking right whose man shall I go after now, but the hint of a flirt and she's all over it. I also think she likes the fame thing a little too much and saw Sandoval as a bigger fish than James.
Whilst it is still this has happened to Ariana, she's better of away from Tom, I'm glad her instincts meant they never had a baby so she's not tied to him.
Lala is obnoxious and a bully we've seen it over and over, puts herself on a pedestal when she literally talked about being paid in kind for sex acts. Her ego meant she thought Randall wouldn't do the same to her, of course he would! People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones, lala had the whole Randall situation and slept with James when both were in a relationship. In Vegas she was coming for Raquel long before they knew about this stuff.
Katie is sad her marriage ended and Raquel was wrong to hit on Schwarz I can't imagine I've off my friends doing that to me if I was getting divorced. However some of these people aren't friends they are colleagues focussed on fame who will step on anything to get it. Also Katie and Tom's marriage was a shit show, the relationship was awful and I have no idea why they got married.
The whole lot is a mess, which to be honest just reminded me of early seasons of VPR! In short none of them are redeemable or the people you'd want as friends, (I'd say maybe Ariana but you can a lot about a person by the company they keep) but that's why they make good TV.
Teddi Melloncamp needs to pipe down.

I'm rewatching the series 2 reunion (distraction while working). The thing that strikes me is how horrendous Tom really was to Kristen. He was blaming her completely for him cheating on her. He's going to be AWFUL to Ariana in the reunion next week isn't he?

Yep!

From the looks of it he has already started to blame Ariana, her depression, her grandma dying, her dog dying etc.

Interestingly. Jax always said Tom and Ariana were just glorified roommates and Tom always got cross with him for saying that. I wonder if he starts to say it?

he's certainly been quick to get his side across..."tom and Ariana had been having problems for a while....." I mean, I bet that was news to Ariana!

He really is a low piece of excrement.

I am looking forward to this week's episode 😀

I kind of think this is fake now. I think Ariana knew. And they were originally gonna end things off screen but ratings so bad they did it on screen instead .

Who is Tom Sandoval kissing in the bed. Is that Ariana or Raquel?

ooft that trailer 🫣

Apart from the obvious, I still think Kristen wasn’t that bad an egg.

TS is, what is known by in these parts, an utter cahhhhhhnt. He messed with that lass and oopsy, has once again fucked another lass over.

Take you, your porny moustache, your shaved foreheid and fuck off.

Raquel should have known and behaved better. No question. But there’s a dame who was fucked in the heid by another caaaaahhhnt.

Ariana isn’t my favourite. In fact she got right on my wallopers. But no one should be cheated on.

Admittedly I haven’t watched it for a while but I might watch this particular series.

If only to air my inner Nan.

And aye - ooooft that trailer. All that was missing was someone playing a 70s porn tune on a stylophone when TS went in for the kiss.

Ooh, I was coming here to post the mid-season trailer!! I cannot wait!!!

I thought Raquel handled herself really well at the dinner in Lake Havasu. She stuck up for herself & I was cheering when she called Lala out for sleeping with James & Randall when he was married. Lala’s only defence was that it was 6 years ago - but this is fresh news for Raquel. Charlie was hilarious too!

Tom was really awful to Kristin after their breakup. I recall believing her on the reunion show at the time but she was so hysterical that she seemed just came across as lying - like she was grasping at straws. And Ariana & Tom were so calm & sneering at her. Awful. The word gaslighting wasn’t around then, but this is exactly what Tom was doing. Will be interesting to see how he deals with this breakup.

HAYU isn't letting me watch WWHL it just says video not available. Is anyone else struggling?

Yes, me too

But weirdly, if I click on one that does play and then let it automatically play on when the episode ends (iyswim), then it works.

It does mean I have to watch pishy episodes, but once it ends, the Amazon thingy plays the next episode I do want to see. 😁

I don't think it was set up, as stassi said on her podcast no way would TS agree to anything that made him look bad- although his behaviour is generally awful he tries to maintain a facade. Ariana also doesn't seem as desperate as some of the others, I don't think she'd fake it.

Obvious he'd cheated over the years but with racquel is awful. Ariana was such a good friend to her, how she could be sleeping with her long term partner and still pretending to be her mate is gross. I suspect though her and Tom will make out they're super in love and that it was worth all of the pain. Horrible for Katie too that schwarz was part of the plan to divert attention.

Even jax and britt are back for wwhl!

Jax seems to be implying on insta comments that they will be returning to VR

Im so here for this. I know they got together when Tom was in a relationship but buying a house together and being together for 9 years is much more of a commitment than Kristen and Tom had.
plus the pretending to be friends still. Ariana probably told her all kinds of worried or troubles in the relationship and Raquel has used that against her.
you just don’t do that to friends. Even if that’s your soulmate you should let the relationship finish before you move in.

tom is a prat. He’s gross. Really fancies himself. I do think it’s time for all the older cast to move on and concentrate on the younger newer cast members. I really hope they don’t bring back jax and Brittney.

Also if they do coke back that’s basically admitting that they need thr money and are not making money on their own like they thought they would.
