The episode heavily focused on a surprise wedding shower for Scheana Shay and the events leading up to her wedding to Brock Davies but it is clear that Bravo fans are tuning in and eating up every moment of the RHOBH spinoff amid Scandoval.
Record ratings
As we’ve reported previously, Pump Rules Season 10 was doing better than Season 9 in the ratings before the scandal hit but live numbers for the series have surged overall since the news that Tom Sandoval cheated on Ariana Madix with Raquel Leviss became public.
The Season 10 premiere opened to record-high ratings just a few weeks ago — especially once DVR and delayed viewing was taken into account — and the series only seems to be gaining attention as Scandoval continues.
The series has resumed filming on Season 10 with the recent midseason teaser showing the first scenes of Tom, Ariana, and Raquel post-affair.
Plus, the cast has already taped the sure-to-be dramatic reunion special which will include their first group discussion about the scandal and an alleged physical confrontation — if former cast member Jax Taylor is to be believed.
“I heard it was crazy, heard it was everything that everyone thought it was going to be,” Jax told Extra about the reunion at the 2023 iHeart Radio Music Awards on Monday (March 27), according to a write up from Page Six. “Uncomfortable. There was security there. There was almost brawls.”
Vanderpump Rules airs Wednesdays on Bravo.
