Bravo ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills': Lisa Vanderpump to Return in Season 5?
Last month, it was reported that "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Lisa Vanderpump was planning to quit the Bravo "Housewives" franchise.
According to TMZ reports, Vanderpump told "The Real Housewives" executive producer, Andy Cohen, that she felt extremely bullied by the other "RHOBH" cast members, and she's fed up with the show.
Despite Vanderpump's doubt about the show, Cohen and Vanderpump's close friend Lance Bass tried to convince her to stay on the show.
And based on current reports, it seems that Cohen and Bass' pleading may have actually persuaded Vanderpump to continue on with "RHOBH" Season 5.
E! News reported that Lisa Vanderpump is confirmed to be returning to "RHOBH" Season 5. In true celebrity form, Vanderpump took to Twitter to express the exciting news to her fans. Though, it seems that Vanderpump still harnesses some doubt about the show since she ended her tweet with "we will see" and "let the games begin."
"Well ok...Five has always been my lucky number, so we will see," Vanderpump tweeted on Friday while hashtagging, "#rhobh Let the games begin."
In addition to Andy Cohen and Lance Bass' pleading, SheKnows reported that Vanderpump agreeing to come back on the show may have been because of financial necessity. Prior to the Season 5 announcement, Vanderpump recently lost a sexual harassment case to a former waitress at her restaurant, Villa Blanca. The waitress claimed that a Villa Blanca manager had sexually harassed her, and Vanderpump was ordered to pay the waitress $100,000 in damages. Following the loss, the 53-year-old reality star tweeted her disappointment.
"Hard to comprehend how my manager is totally innocent but vb gets damages against them for something that didn't happen. Losing faith," Vanderpump tweeted last Tuesday.
Because of this surprise court order, reports speculated that Vanderpump may have renewed her "RHOBH" contract to make up for the financial loss.
What do you think? Is Vanderpump's Season 5 comeback because of financial desperation? Or did she have a change of heart? Share your comments below.
