The “Vanderpump Rules” Reunion Trailer Just Dropped, And It’s So Intense

    Yes, James Kennedy really said “poo-poo heads.”

    All is not well in West Hollywood. After a season of scandals and endless feuds, Bravo dropped the reunion trailer for Season 10 of Vanderpump Rules on Thursday.

    In case you’re not caught up, the season has largely chronicled the ongoing fallout after it's revealed cast members Tom Sandoval and Raquel Leviss had an affair amid Sandoval’s long-term relationship with fellow Vanderpump star Ariana Madix.

    The affair came to light while the season was airing, resulting in much of the Scandoval (the term coined for the scandal) playing out both at the same time on air and IRL. Sandoval and Madix have since reportedly split.

    Amid the Scandoval, the show’s ratings spiked, a restraining order was issued and later dismissed, the phrase “Send It to Darrell” became a thing, and Madix even attended the White House Correspondents' Dinner alongside costars Lala Kent and Lisa Vanderpump.

    All this has made the reunion, which was hosted by Andy Cohen and reportedly taped in March, highly anticipated by the show’s fans. Based on Thursday’s trailer, it seems the Scandoval will be front and center on the reunion episode.

    In the trailer, Sandoval and Leviss faced tough criticism from their cast members, including Madix, Kent, and James Kennedy.

    Katie Maloney, Tom Schwartz, and Scheana Shay rounded out the cast members appearing in the trailer. Ally Lewber was also in attendance.

    The name-callings came a mile a minute, with Kennedy referring to Sandoval and Leviss as “poo-poo heads" and later calling Sandoval “a worm with a mustache.”

    After Leviss called herself “super selfish,” Madix jumps in to say, “Selfish does not cover it. Diabolical, demented, [and] subhuman.”

    Sandoval and Leviss defend themselves, notably rejecting the label of “pathological liars.”

    Elsewhere in the trailer, Sandoval and Kennedy nearly come to blows, Shay is seen crying, and Maloney and Schwartz continue sparring amid the fallout of their 2022 divorce.

    The entire trailer — let’s be honest, the entire season — has to be seen to fully capture the frenzied, intense energy at play. Fortunately, the reunion episode airs on May 24. Mark your calendars.
