Katie Maloney and Ariana Madix are making moves, and more power to them. The two have had a rough go in the last couple of seasons of Vanderpump Rules. Between Katie’s divorce from Tom Schwartz and Ariana’s breakup with Tom Sandoval, the two had their hands full.
But like any good comeback story, the friends are attempting to turn tragedy into triumph. They made it clear that their exes wouldn’t leave them high and dry or in the dust.
So, since Season 10 ended, Ariana and Katie have stuck together like bark on a tree. Still, Season 11 has reportedly been the most difficult for any of the cast members to film thus far. Katie and Ariana have recently given some insight into the highs and lows of filming over the past year.
Katie and Ariana’s “vision” going forward
Katie admitted that returning to film VPR Season 11 was challenging. “I feel like it still felt really fresh. Even though it had been a few months,” she told OK!. She further reported, “Not enough life had been lived in between seasons.” With wounds feeling so fresh, Season 11’s may feel intensified.
On the other hand, without much more lived experience between seasons, things may feel similar to Season 10. Regardless, Ariana and Katie did have something to feel excited about going into Season 11—the progression of Something About Her. “It’s been great because we’ve had the same vision for what we want to accomplish and how we want things to be,” Ariana reported.
The pair also highlighted their desire to promote other female-led businesses. Ariana explained, “Whether it’s women-owned wine brands or any way we can incorporate that into our business, we’re definitely all about that because it’s very difficult to be taken seriously or to be given the opportunity as women in the business world.”
Vanderpump Rules Season 11 is expected to air on Bravo in early 2024.
