As if #Scandoval wasn't groundbreaking enough, a Vanderpump Rules secret threatens to divide the entire cast to its core. But what is it, exactly?
We had questioned, "Is Raquel pregnant?" ahead of the three-part Vanderpump Rules reunion (which airs its second edition on Wednesday, May 31), but now that the rumor has been squashed—seemingly like Tom Sandoval's hopes for redemption amongst his peers and viewers—we're just as confused as we were pre-pregnancy speculation. Truth be told, even the biggest Bravoholics are a bit stumped as to what the much-hyped reunion revelation could possibly be.
Lisa Vanderpump, however, won't spill the Pumptini. While the restauranteur and reality TV star has been teasing the shocking stats throughout Memorial Day Weekend, everyone's been reaching for their thinking caps.
What is the big 'Vanderpump Rules' secret?
Fans are allegedly going to be let in on an earth-shattering Vanerpump Rules secret at some point throughout the three-part reunion. Considering we're nearing round 2, everyone is bracing themselves for an over-the-top catchup (not that it hasn't been already, but...)
A popular theory is that Lisa was well aware of what was happening before the world learned about Tom Sandoval and Raquel Leviss' affair in March 2023. (The two have broken up since this all leaked.) However, Vanderpump did take to Twitter to squash that notion, too, though her use of the word "ain't" has really thrown some Twitter users for a loop.
"Ok ..no I didn't know...until a minute before you all did...I wish I would've tho," she tweeted.
Then, to leave us in suspense, she followed up with, "I know the revelation ...but it ain't that."
In an interview with Page Six on Wednesday, May 24, Vanderpump also teased the "twist" that's coming: "I mean, I never kind of give the game away. I’m not saying what it is," she stated before joking that she "shagged" Bravo exec Andy Cohen.
Will this reveal completely change the trajectory of the show, and does this mean we should count Vanderpump Rules season 11 as a no-go?

Fan theories about the 'Vanderpump Rules' secret
Naturally, no one is waiting for the reunion—they're making their guesses now. Here's what some people are suggesting, according to Twitter:
- Tom and Raquel's affair really started when she was still engaged to James Kennedy
- Production knew about the affair way before they let on
- Vanderpump Rules will follow Lisa's new crew at her Las Vegas restaurants
- Former cast members are returning to the show
At the time of publication, nothing has been confirmed or denied, but once we get the good word on the "twist" we'll be sure to keep you posted!
