Ariana Madix confirms she won’t return to Vanderpump Rules

Ariana Madix has confirmed she will not return to Vanderpump Rules, stating it "just didn't feel right" for her. This decision comes ahead of a cast shakeup as the show prepares for a new era. Madix expressed her dislike for the term "Scandoval," which refers to the scandal involving her ex-partner Tom Sandoval's affair with co-star Rachel Leviss. She emphasized that the term has never resonated with her. The show is set to begin filming with a new cast soon. Madix has expressed gratitude for her time on Vanderpump Rules, despite the turmoil caused by the scandal that emerged in March 2023.
