Is Lisa Vanderpump leaving the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills? Not so fast. According to a source, the reality star isn’t leaving the Bravo franchise, but she hasn’t signed her contract yet either.
“Ken convinced her to do this season,” the insider tells Us of the restaurant owner. “She needed some arm pulling.”
According to the source, Bravo has offered Vanderpump, 55, a seven figure salary, but the animal lover has yet to officially sign back on.
The businesswoman feuded with fellow castmates Yolanda Foster, Lisa Rinna and Eileen Davidson during season 6 of the hit reality show.
As fans well remember, Rinna, 52, accused Vanderpump of manipulating the other women into speculating about Foster’s Lyme disease and igniting the rumor that the former model, 52, has Munchausen syndrome.
Vanderpump previously had a falling out with former costar and frenemy Brandi Glanville and got into hot water with Davidson about her marriage during season 6.
Foster is the latest RHOBH star to quit the show. The former model, who appeared in four seasons, announced her exit this past June, revealing via a statement that she’s leaving the show to focus on her recovery and children.
Camille Grammer, Taylor Armstrong, Adrienne Maloof, Kim Richards and Glanville previously exited the franchise.
Bravo had no comment on the cast for season 7. Vanderpump also appears in her spinoff show Vanderpump Rules.
