The final moments of 'Vanderpump Rules' season 11 highlighted the division between Ariana Madix and the rest of the cast
Ariana Madix's refusal to film with Tom Sandoval during the season 11 finale ultimately caused several of her Vanderpump Rules costars to turn on her.
Production leaned into a similar narrative — based on how the scenes were edited — to back up the perspective that Ariana should have been more willing to hash out her issues with Sandoval. The shift came after Ariana previously said she wouldn't be surprised if this season made her out to be the villain.
Keep scrolling for a breakdown of Ariana's uncomfortable run-in with Sandoval — and why the aftermath could hint at her exit from Vanderpump Rules:In last week's episode, Scheana attempted to bridge the gap between Sandoval and Ariana by asking him to apologize for 'weaponizing her mental health.' Scheana's words ultimately inspired Sandoval to cross a boundary by approaching Ariana — but more on that later.
The reasoning didn't work for Ariana, who pointed out to Schwartz that Sandoval didn't just do 'one' thing to hurt her. Lala, 33, who didn't join the conversation, shared her thoughts in a confessional instead. After Sandoval walked away, James Kennedy's girlfriend, Ally Lewber, admitted she was nervous about how the introduction would go.
Ariana was not thrilled by Scheana's comments, telling the cameras, 'It is just the same thing over and over with Scheana. I don't know why she thinks that somehow she knows this man better than I do. Alright girl. I am happy for you.' 'You aren't losing me. You are my family. I love you. You will never lose me. Never,' Ariana reassured Scheana. 'Me and you are warriors.'
After asking whether Sandoval valued their friendship outside of filming, Scheana told him not to make her look like a 'f—king idiot” with his future actions.Executive producer Jeremiah Smith made an onscreen appearance when he urged Ariana not to leave. 'Ariana, don't do this,' Jeremiah said as Ariana started to take off her mic. 'Don't end like this.''Him f—king walking up on me talking to Scheana.
Vanderpump Rules fans probably lost count as Scheana got emotional once more over Sandoval's behavior, saying, 'I said this to her. I know. You have been there for me. That is why I am struggling with this. Because you have been a f—king good friend but then she convinces me that you are not.' Scheana replied by promising to back Lala up, adding, 'It is unfair. I agree with you. You are not alone in that.'
