The Vanderpump Rules cast spilled all their emotions behind the scenes at the Season 10 reunion. See the video.
In case you were wondering what it was like backstage at the Vanderpump Rules Season 10 reunion, lucky for you, BravoTV.com was there. Ahead of the taping, we caught up with several of the cast members, who shared exactly how they were feeling before taking the stage.
Find out what they shared.
Ariana Madix
“I mentally prepared for today by getting my nails done, getting a sick outfit, cutting off my hair, bleaching it, and going to bed really early last night,” she told BravoTV.com backstage before expressing her gratitude for those who have been there for her in the weeks since her breakup. “Everyone’s support has meant the absolute world to me. There were definitely days when I couldn’t eat, couldn’t sleep. I feel like literally the luckiest girl in the world because that was, I think, the lowest I’ve ever been in my life and everybody really just picked me back up.”
Tom Sandoval
“I’m looking forward to just getting through it,” he shared. “I’m sure there will be a lot getting taken off my chest.”
Katie Maloney
“Obviously, we want to find out from Tom Sandoval, from Raquel, from Tom Schwartz, when people started these things [and] when Tom Schwartz found out.”
Tom Schwartz
“It’s always, like, super intense, but relatively speaking, it just feels very heavy on my heart,” he said, adding that because he’s so close with Sandoval, the fallout from the affair has “been really intense” for him too. “Just being adjacent to it has been mentally and spiritually exhausting.”
Lala Kent
“I’m feeling triggered. I feel like I’m on 100,” she noted before taking the stage. “It feels different in the sense that it’s like old-school Vanderpump, but the stakes are so much higher.”
She went on to add her expectations for the day, sharing, “I’d like to know what went through their mind when they were throwing daggers at all of us and calling us all names. What type of mind do you have to justify that?”

In a separate interview with The Daily Dish, the reunion host noted that while Tom and Raquel “had minimal interaction onstage in front of everyone, you will see them together backstage.”
Overall, he described the tone backstage as “very emotional and a lot of anger.” He added, “Everyone was kind of doing their own thing. The women were together. Katie and Lala and Ariana were together.”
How to Watch the Vanderpump Rules Season 10 Reunion
The Vanderpump Rules Season 10 reunion, which began on Wednesday, May 24, on Bravo, will air Parts 2 and 3 on Wednesdays at 9/8c.
Peacock will exclusively stream Vanderpump Rules: Pumped Up Edition, a first-of-its-kind extended version of the three reunion episodes, as well as a supersize version of Secrets Revealed. The uncensored extended versions will feature additional never-before-seen footage of the Bravo offerings, exclusively on Peacock the day after the reunion episodes air on Bravo.
When speaking to The Daily Dish, Andy noted that, overall, once the reunion wraps up, “I think it really delivers. Because I think what people want is retribution and they want these people to be confronted with what they’ve done, and they’re going to get it.”
He added, “I think it’s one of the most highly anticipated reunions that I can think of. I mean, [it] started months ago, obviously. And I think the reason everybody is so invested is that they want to see some sort of a reckoning [with] Tom and Raquel, and they’re going to get it. They want to see them confronted by Ariana. They want to see them confronted by their friends. And it was incredibly confrontational. What can I say?”
But wait, there’s more! Following the three reunion episodes, Bravo will air a Secrets Revealed episode with additional dramatic and scandalous moments behind the affair that jolted the zeitgeist. Tune in on Wednesday, June 14, at 9/8c.
