Uh, Is Lala Done With ‘VPR’ For Good?

The final episode of season 11 of Vanderpump Rules (and potentially the series as a whole) has finally arrived. The cast watched the dramatic season finale conclusion that had fans emotional, shook, and spooked by the cast’s hot takes on Ariana refusing to speak with Tom just because they wanted her to for the sake of the show. Despite the time that has passed, some of Ariana’s castmates have doubled down on this opinion, with Lala Kent still leading the Ariana-as-Beyoncé charge. While LVP empathized with Ariana’s decision to take space from someone who has caused her serious pain considering her own contentious exit from her famous friend group on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Lala insisted that Ariana’s refusal to deal with the Tom situation head on was the most frustrating part of picking up post Sandoval. So will Lala let her frustrations cause her to leave the group? Our latest predictions are below.

Will Lala return to Vanderpump Rules?

Even though Lala ended the season with another seemingly practiced catchphrase (“I just want to bake a baby and have a happy life”) it seems like the biggest takeaway from her performance at the reunion is how passionate she is about being a reality TV star with a platform (even though she doesn’t care about what the fans that patronize that platform think). Lala wouldn’t be so angry at Ariana for not going out of her way to maintain her job security (apparently Lala being able to pay her mortgage is now a group responsibility) if she intended to walk away herself without a fight. Plus, as everyone has acknowledged ad nauseum, Ariana is nothing if not busy, so if anyone’s going to walk away from VPR voluntarily, it would be Ariana, which would take Lala’s biggest problem out of the equation (isn’t it interesting how Ariana is somehow both the problem and the solution?). Without another gig lined up, it feels beyond safe to say Lala will come back to Vanderpump Rules should there be a show to come back to. If she does, at least we can expect a conclusion to her unresolved tension with Katie, who refused to give validity to Lala’s implications that Katie’s friendship with Ariana was contrived for clicks. Is it living in the comment section or is it putting petty grievances aside to show up for your friend when they need you the most? Apparently, only Lala Kent knows.
