Billie Lee is returning to Vanderpump Rules season 11 as an “ally” to disgraced cast member Tom Sandoval, according to a juicy new report.
Insiders have confirmed Billie Lee’s return to the Bravo show with Page Six reporting that Sandoval needed a friend alongside him after cheating on Ariana Madix with Raquel Leviss. (Ariana is also back for Season 11, while Raquel has not filmed and is not expected to return.)
“Billie came back to support Tom as he was experiencing some mental health challenges when cameras went up for Season 11,” a source tells the gossip outlet. According to the article, Billie Lee has connected Tom Sandoval with Dr. Kien Vuu, MD, founder of VuuMD Performance and Longevity and the team are working on reviving Tom’s “self-esteem amid unrelenting public scrutiny.”
“Tom is doing great today,” another insider reveals. “He’s focusing on the positive and even expanding his social circle outside of the cast.” According to Page Six, Billie Lee has an ulterior motive for agreeing to film for season 11 of Vanderpump Rules: she wants to “clear her name.”
While Billie Lee has filmed “multiple scenes with Sandoval and more cast members,” it doesn’t sound like she has an official role on the Bravo show just yet. “She is currently negotiating her contract for the rest of the season, which wraps filming in September,” says the source.
As previously reported on TVDeets.com, Season 11 of Vanderpump Rules is currently filming and will return to Bravo in 2024.
