Ariana Madix had the help of the Vanderpump Guidelines solid on the Season 10 reunion however by Season 11, the devotion was waning. Lala Kent and Scheana Shay have proven compassion for Tom Sandoval within the present season and even agreed to go on a visit with him to Lake Tahoe.
If the VPR solid needs to forgive Sandoval, that’s their proper. Nevertheless, it’s unfair of them to count on Ariana to do the identical. They need the inexperienced mild from her to forgive him, however why ought to she do this? He cheated on her together with her good friend for 7 months. That’s fairly exhausting to return again from.
I feel the solid is anticipating an excessive amount of from Ariana proper now. Listed below are the explanations they should minimize her some slack.
It’s solely been a number of months
It’s been over a yr since #Scandoval broke the web however when Season 11 started capturing, it had solely been a number of months. Filming for Season 11 started in June of 2023, solely three months after the unstable three-part reunion was filmed. We anticipated the solid to be out for blood given the fast turnaround however lots of them gave the impression to be over it by the point cameras had been rolling once more. How Lala went from calling Sandoval a “harmful individual” to grabbing lunch with him within the span of some months we’ll by no means perceive.
Forgiveness is nice. I don’t fault the solid for having difficult emotions a couple of man they’ve recognized and beloved for years. That makes complete sense. Nevertheless, the expectation that Ariana ought to transfer on as quick as they’ve is completely unfair. Who cares if she’s scored some profitable model offers? That doesn’t imply she must be chill with Sandoval now.
She’s allowed to set boundaries
Scheana, Lala, and Tom Schwartz have been crucial of the boundaries Ariana has set with regard to Sandoval. I don’t perceive why. She has by no means forbidden anybody from being buddies with him. She has merely said that in the event that they select to be buddies with him, she won’t be as near them. Ariana shouldn’t be pressured to be round her ex on a regular basis. She’s allowed to create distance from him to guard her psychological well being. Is that actually so unreasonable?
They profited off her heartbreak
When the information of Scandoval broke, it didn’t take lengthy earlier than the solid began monetizing the drama. Lala created merch, Scheana talked about it on her podcast, and James Kennedy alluded to the scandal in his DJ units. Ariana wasn’t the one one who made cash off Scandoval. It’s pure for the solid to touch upon drama linked to their present, however since they did, they shouldn’t come at Ariana for doing the identical. Certain, the scandal opened loads of doorways for her however that doesn’t make her emotions in regards to the scenario invalid. A model deal isn’t going to fix a damaged coronary heart. Duh! Solely time can do this and it hasn’t been that lengthy.
I don’t fault the group for earning money throughout the scandal. In any case, a few of them have kids to help. However since so lots of them profited off Ariana’s heartbreak, you’d suppose they’d have extra loyalty to her.
It didn’t occur to them
I perceive the place Lala is coming from when she says she doesn’t need her good friend to carry onto a lot anger. Staying offended might certainly be hurting Ariana greater than serving to her. Nevertheless, everybody grieves in their very own means and she or he is entitled to no matter course of she feels is helpful to her. Lala can relate to Ariana in some ways. She was additionally lied to and cheated on by a person she trusted. However Lala won’t ever know the ins and outs of Ariana and Sandoval’s relationship. Subsequently, she will be able to’t absolutely put herself in Ariana’s sneakers. Additionally, Lala isn’t buddies together with her ex, so why ought to Ariana forgive Sandoval? Not many individuals would wish to spend a seaside day with their dishonest ex. All issues thought of, we predict Ariana is dealing with the scenario fairly maturely.
