You Won’t Believe Who Ann Maddox Named Her “Favorite Coworkers” From VPR (PICS)

Ann Maddox is reflecting back on her time spent on Vanderpump Rules.

By Casey Suglia

Tom Sandoval's former assistant and one-time Something About Her employee, Ann Maddox, is also mourning the Vanderpump Rules cast shakeup. It was announced in late November that VPR would be returning to Bravo in 2025 with a brand new cast (more on that below), which sparked a range of emotions for the longtime cast and their circle of friends.

How to Watch

Watch Vanderpump Rules on Peacock and the Bravo app.  

Although Ann only appeared on VPR in Season 11, she made the most of her time in the mix, as the go-between person for Tom and his ex-girlfriend, Ariana Madix, whom he shared a home with during the season amid their spilt and later landing a gig at Something Abotu Her. But Ann isn't going to miss Tom or Ariana the most from VPR. She took to Instagram on Nov. 28, where she revealed that she would be missing Tom and Ariana's pets

Ann posted so many photos of Ariana's gray and white pitbull mix, Mya; her cat, Kitty; and her late dog, Charlotte York. These photos of the pets are too adorable and filled with so much personality.

"My favorite coworkers at my old job," Ann captioned the post, alongside a single red heart emoji.

Ann Maddox's reaction to the VPR Season 12 cast shakeup

Ann had taken to Instagram days earlier, on Nov. 27, where she posted a never-before-seen video of her, diving into a stack of toilet paper and paper towel rolls inside of Ariana and Tom's pantry, while laughing. "This was a good day at work," she wrote in the caption of the post.

She then thanked VPR boss, Lisa Vanderpump, among others for "letting this whacky Japanese girl pull a solid Paul Rudd in Friends, and slide into the very last season of a dynasty."

"You have changed my life forever and I'm so freaking grateful," she added.

"Lots of love from the #1 assistant of the group (JK that's probably Jessica), Ann," she signed off her sweet message. "P.s-if any of y'all need someone to buy you toilet paper, batteries, and pens, I'm looking for a little extra work during the holidays."

Ariana then took to the comments of the post where she left a single crying while laughing emoji.

Details on the Vanderpump Rules Season 12 announcement

It was announced on Nov. 26 that VPR would be returning for a new season in 2025 with a brand new cast of "close-knit SUR-vers who are as complicatedly involved with one another as their iconic predecessors."

Per the announcement for the new season, "Under Lisa Vanderpump's watchful eye, the West Hollywood mainstay SUR — and now Tom Tom — welcomes the new batch of servers, hosts, and bartenders, rife with plenty of drama, situationships, and enemies."

Lisa commented on the news with a statement of her own. "The last 12 years of filming have been an extraordinary run full of laughter, tears, and everything in between," she said. "I can't thank enough those who have shared their lives. How I love you all. In the restaurant business, one shift always gives way to another. Cheers to the next generation of Vanderpump Rules."
