When Vanderpump Rules started, Kristen Doute was at the center of the drama. Throughout the years, 92525252 cast members were added to the show, making it a very large ensemble cast. This means that a lot of stories do not make it into the actual episodes.
Usually it’s a good thing when someone has so much personal growth, but that’s not the case when it comes to being a reality TV star. Kristen is just not in the thick of the drama anymore . She’s in a very stable relationship with boyfriend Brian Carter and that just doesn’t make for the best TV. Last season, she didn’t really get a storyline of her own, other than denying those hookup rumors about her and ex-boyfriend James Kennedy and throwing a drink on him in Mexico. Now there are reports that she will not be returning for Season 7 of Vanderpump Rules.
The website RadarOnline claims that Kristen has not been asked back by the Vanderpump Rules producers. Then the article quoted an “inside source” that claimed, “She’s being downgraded to a ‘friend’ of the cast.” That same source added, “She doesn’t have a lot of drama in her life these days.”
Kristen responded to a Twitter user that posted the RadarOnline article by tweeting, “I hate giving that trash bag tabloid any attention. But that is [100] #fakenews.”
Fellow OG cast member Stassi Schroeder responded to the same tweet by writing “#fakenews.”
Kristen has been a full-time cast member since the beginning of the show. Last season she barely got any screen time, so whether her status as a cast member has changed or not, it really doesn’t guarantee that she will get as much time in the spotlight as other full-time cast members who are “more dramatic.” Then again, if she’s earning a full-time salary without putting herself on display for potential criticism, she might just have best of both worlds.
And where would we be without her crucial investigative skills?
