Vanderpump Rules to finally begin filming season 9 after cast firings as Scheana Shay, Lala Kent & m

VANDERPUMP Rules will reportedly finally begin filming season 9 soon with regulars such as Scheana Shay and Lala Kent set to return.

The future of the long-running Bravo series seemed unknown following multiple cast firings last year.

It’s been 18 months since Bravo camera caught up with the Vanderpump Rules cast, but that’s expected to change next month.

A Bravo spokesperson confirmed to Variety production on season 9 of VPR will begin in May.

They shared: “Vanderpump Rules will resume production with a comprehensive health and safety plan. The plan was developed in accordance with CDC guidance, all state and local orders, as well as NBCUniversal’s own safety guidelines. The health and safety of the cast and crew is the priority of Bravo for all of its shows.”

Familiar faces such as Tom Schwartz and Katie Maloney and Tom Sandoval and Ariana Madix are coming back to the show.

New mom, Lala Kent, and mom-to-be, Scheana Shay, is also set to return, along with James Kennedy and Raquel Leviss.

Since season 8 production wrapped last June show newcomers Max Boyens and Brett Caprioni were fired after past racist tweets resurfaced.

In December, Jax and Brittany announced they will not be returning next season to Vanderpump Rules.

Over the Summer, Bravo fired Stassi Schroeder and Kristen Doute for their “racist” past behavior.

Faith Stowers accused former costars Stassi and Kristen of reporting her to the police for a crime she did not commit in 2018.
