While the group has been struggling to find their footing with one another in Season 11 of Vanderpump Rules following the events of Season 10 that led to a fallout in the inner circle as well as the end of Ariana Madix and Tom Sandoval's relationship, Lisa Vanderpump has attempted to try and bring some healing to the group as seen in the Feb. 20 episode of Vanderpump Rules.

She sat Scheana Shay and Lala Kent and referenced a previous conversation she had with Sandoval in the Feb. 13 episode of VPR. Lisa went on to make a plea to Scheana and Lala that the group take a new path in how they interact with him despite his actions.

In the Vanderpump Rules Season 11 After Show, the VPR cast addresses that conversation.

As you can see in the clip above, the cast has a number of emotional reactions to Lisa's intense conversation. Ariana notes that it's a "heavy burden" for the group to have to "carry" Lisa's words amid her "concerns," while Tom Schwartz called the moment "pivotal."

Scheana said in the VPR After Show that, at that time, she wasn't ready to "welcome [Sandoval] back into the group" even if she felt it was time to "soften up" a bit. Lala added that "it was a heavy conversation."

In a separate Vanderpump Rules After Show clip, below, the group further reflects on the emotional episode for the group.
