AceShowbiz - The Vanderpump Rules reality TV show has been a staple on Bravo for over a decade, and its original cast members have undergone significant changes since the show's debut. 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 Lisa 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 of other reality stars to be born in their footsteps. The show's success led to a rebooted slate of SURvers in season 12, and fans are wondering what the original cast members are up to now.

Kristen Doute is one of the original cast members who has remained in the public eye, still calling Bravo home with her new series The Valley. The show, which began as a spinoff of Vanderpump Rules in 2024, stars Kristen Doute alongside Brittany Cartwright, who made her first appearance on the main show in season four. Kristen Doute was fired from Vanderpump Rules in 2020 after Faith Stowers, a former cast member, revealed that she and Stassi Schroeder called the police on her in 2018, attached to a crime Stowers did not engage in.

Since her firing, Kristen Doute has 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 Doute and Luke Broderick, together, host the Balancing Act podcast, and she briefly ventured into competitive reality TV on The GOAT. The future looks bright for Kristen Doute, and fans are excited to see what she has in store next.

As for the other original cast members, Stassi Schroeder has been focusing on her family and writing career, while Katie Maloney has been navigating her divorce and new business ventures. Tom Sandoval and Ariana Madix's highly publicized breakup has been making headlines, and Scheana Shay has been open about her struggles with motherhood and relationships. Jax Taylor has been keeping a low profile, but his legacy on Vanderpump Rules remains unchanged.

The Vanderpump Rules franchise has come a long way since its debut, and its original cast members have become household names. With their ever-changing lives and dramas, fans are always eager to know what's next for the SURvers. As the show continues to evolve, one thing is certain - the original cast members will always be a part of the Vanderpump Rules family.
