James Kennedy Reacts to ‘Vanderpump Rules’ Reboot Rumors!
James Kennedy is addressing rumors about the future of Vanderpump Rules, specifically speculation that the upcoming season might be a “final farewell” before the show undergoes a complete reboot featuring new cast members from Lisa Vanderpump’s restaurants.
The rumor gained traction after fan account @_surrules shared an Instagram post suggesting that the next season of Vanderpump Rules would mark the end of the current cast’s journey.
“#VanderpumpRules to allegedly end with this next season which films in October,” the account wrote. “After a final farewell, the show will go back into the direction of filming SURvers from Lisa Vanderpump’s restaurants as a total reboot.”
In response to the speculation, James left a cheeky comment on the post, writing, “Y’all think you have it all figured out huh 😂,” seemingly brushing off the rumors.
The buzz around a potential shakeup in the show’s format follows reports from multiple outlets in April that suggested Vanderpump Rules was changing its filming schedule after season 11.
Traditionally, the series has filmed during the summer, kicking off production in May and continuing through June and July. However, Bravo has yet to officially confirm whether season 12 will move forward.
Lisa Vanderpump herself addressed the possibility of the series ending while speaking to Us Weekly in May. The 63-year-old restaurateur admitted that she often wonders about the show’s future. “Every year I think, ‘Oh, this is gonna be the last year,’” Lisa shared.
She continued, “We’re taking a little breath here. I’ve got to open another restaurant. I think we’re kind of done talking about Scandoval/Sandoval. So I think everybody needs to have it kind of all breathe a little bit.”
Vanderpump Rules first premiered on Bravo in 2013 and has remained a staple of the network’s reality TV lineup.
Whether the rumored reboot will come to fruition remains to be seen.
