Vanderpump Rules executive producer Alex Baskin hinted that Bravo isn’t waiting around for Rachel “Raquel” Leviss to return to the show.

During the Friday, January 26, episode of Scheana Shay‘s “Scheananigans” podcast, Baskin didn’t hesitate when asked whether the door was open for Leviss, 29, to come back after season 11. “I don’t see that happening,” he replied.

Baskin answered more burning questions about Leviss’ absence from the upcoming season. “I didn’t know [whether] Rachel [would come back]. That was a wild card. We talked to her up until a certain point in the season. It really depended on the day,” Baskin explained about the behind-the-scenes conversations that occurred before production began.

After the fallout of Leviss’ affair with Tom Sandoval, which played out at the end of season 10, Vanderpump Rules fans weren’t sure whether she would return. Leviss checked herself into a mental health treatment facility in April 2023 shortly after filming the season 10 reunion. Her three-month stay at the center overlapped with the season 11 production schedule, and she later confirmed she had no plans to return to the series.

Vanderpump Rules has officially been renewed for season 11 — and viewers are in for a messy return in the aftermath of Raquel Leviss and Tom Sandoval‘s cheating scandal. Us Weekly confirmed in March 2023 that Sandoval and Ariana Madix had called it quits after nearly a decade of dating due to his infidelity. As […]

According to the executive producer, Leviss wasn’t sold on the idea of reuniting with her costars after they all turned on her.

“She had concerns about reintegrating into the group. We said, ‘We are here to support you and protect you.’ That may or may not make sense. I didn’t know how she would have been received. But I ultimately think the right thing happened,” he noted. “If she didn’t think it was right for her to come back then we didn’t want that on us. We are doing OK over here and hopefully she is doing OK.”

Baskin stood by Bravo’s decision to not push Leviss when she wasn’t interested, adding, “We talked about anything and everything. We were open to whatever form it would take but it got difficult because we were so deep into the season. I didn’t exactly know how it would work.”

While speaking about the cheating scandal and her Bravo future in August 2023, Leviss cited money as part of the reason she didn’t want to return.

“I asked for equal pay with Tom and Ariana [Madix] and for them to reimburse me for my treatment expenses. They refused to pay me equally,” Leviss said on Bethenny Frankel‘s “ReWives” podcast. “I feel like when you pay your employees, it really shows how much you value them.”

Vanderpump Rules cast members have offered glimpses at how much they’ve earned during their respective tenures on the hit Bravo series. The topic of paychecks has come up in various circumstances over the years since Vanderpump Rules debuted in 2013. Following Raquel Leviss and Tom Sandoval‘s shocking affair behind Ariana Madix’s back — which came […]

Baskin weighed in on the claims on Friday, telling Shay, 38, “She had a very healthy offer in front of her. Our concern was whether it was the right thing for her anyway because at that point we weren’t sure. I thought it would have done well for her. I thought it would have been the right forum for her to tell her story. I felt good about it from that standpoint.”

Instead of getting back in front of the cameras, Leviss has used her “Rachel Goes Rogue” podcast to share her perspective post-Scandoval.

Earlier this month, Leviss told listeners that she didn’t think it would be healthy for her mental state to resume filming the reality series. She also alleged that production heavily influenced her story lines in the past, which made her concerned about how her scenes would play out if she filmed again.

Several Vanderpump Rules stars have stepped away from the Bravo series over the years. Cameras started following the staff at Lisa Vanderpump’s West Hollywood restaurant SUR in 2012 after she rose to fame on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Season 1 of Pump Rules, which premiered in January 2013, starred Lisa, Stassi Schroeder, Jax […]

“It is very strange how the fans’ comments will influence our story line and how we go about filming. I guess it is part of the producers’ jobs to know what the fans want to see and what they are asking for,” she claimed on her podcast. “A lot of cast members will self-produce and will be thinking about what story line they’re going to be involved in as the season comes up. The comments that the fans will put out there seems to influence [what happens].”
