What began as a show based around the employees of Lisa Vanderpump's West Hollywood restaurant SUR quickly progressed into a series that documented the lives of its core group outside of the workplace, where the drama was always ever present. With Vanderpump at the head, Kristen Doute, Katie Maloney, Tom Sandoval, Stassi Schroeder, Scheana Shay and Jax Taylor served as the original six cast members of Vanderpump Rules, paving the way for plenty a-more reality stars to be birthed in their footsteps. With the arrival of season 12 shuffling in a rebooted slate of SURvers, The Hollywood Reporter is breaking down where the OGs of Vanderpump Rules are now.

The new series began as a spinoff of Vanderpump Rules in 2024, riding off the wave of success the franchise saw post-Scandoval. The Valley similarly starred one other OG on this list alongside Brittany Cartwright, who made her first appearance on the main show in season four. Kristen was fired from Vanderpump Rules in 2020 after Faith Stowers, a former cast member, revealed that she alongside Stassi Schroeder called the police on her in 2018, attached to a crime Stowers did not engage in. Following their firing, the show went under a major cast exodus, leaving the series disheveled and nearly canceled. Kristen has since returned to reality TV via The Valley, and got engaged to Luke Broderick (who stars on the show alongside her) in 2024. In June of this year, they welcomed their first daughter. Kristen and Luke, together, host the Balancing Act podcast, and she briefly ventured into competitive reality TV on The GOAT.

Katie has done it all on reality TV - she got engaged, married and divorced to her ex-husband Tom Schwartz, who was present on season one but joined the cast in a full-time capacity during the third season. She also began her sandwich shop, Something About Her, alongside fellow former co-star and Love Island USA host Ariana Madix on the show. Now, as her days on Vanderpump Rules have come to an end, Katie can be caught hosting the Disrespectfully podcast with season eight cast member Dayna Kathan. She is also now in a relationship with Sleeping With Sirens musician Nick Martin. Tom Sandoval Image Credit: Tommy Garcia/Bravo/NBCU Photo Bank/NBCUniversal via Getty Images, Gonzalo Marroquin/Getty Images for Thirst Project Tom Sandoval is another OG personality from the series that stayed on the show until its season 12 reboot. He was at the center of season 10's headline-making scandal, which saw him cheat on his longtime partner Ariana Madix with their friend and co-star Rachel Leviss, who was formerly engaged to their fellow cast member James Kennedy. Their affair simultaneously breathed new interest into Vanderpump Rules while subsequently destroying the show. It earned them an 11th season, though the turmoil among the cast led to Bravo deciding to ultimately restart the series with a new cast for season 12. In the time since his Vanderpump Rules days, Sandoval has worked the competitive reality TV circuit. He appeared on season three of The Traitors; performed with his cover band on America's Got Talent; went on The Masked Singer; Special Forces season two; and will be seen on the next season of House of Villains. And he hasn't entirely ruled out more reality TV work. At BravoCon 2025, he entertained the question of potentially joining The Valley for future installments, though he did not join former Vanderpump stars Tom Schwartz and Lala Kent as they were announced as part of the season three cast at the same fan convention. Schwartz & Sandy's, the Los Angeles bar he opened alongside Schwartz on the show, also closed at the tailend of 2024. But he's still a junior partner alongside Schwartz with Lisa Vanderpump and Ken Todd of their West Holly
