Dahhhhlings, we may now safely un-clutch our pearls! It’s official: the queen bee shall return to season 7 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills! Despite rumors that Lisa Vanderpump may have been exiting the franchise, the reality star has now confirmed that she’s signed on for another season. However, she’s got some stipulations for Bravo. (And why shouldn’t she!?)
Lisa, who needs neither the money nor the fame, has negotiated with Bravo on what she wants her storyline’s focus to be, namely her charity work. A long time LGBT and animal rights advocate, Lisa is demanding asking that the cameras focus on her work in the fight against AIDS and in putting an end to the horrific Yulin dog market, which celebrates a dog-meat eating festival yearly.

Bravo producers have agreed to Lisa’s negotiations. TMZ reports that Lisa did not “raise issues over what she considers bullying by her castmates last season,” but does want some control over her role on the show. So, she doesn’t want to be skewered by a bunch of bored, resentful harpies? Imagine that!
With Yolanda Foster/Hadid and Eileen Davidson exiting, Lisa may be able to breathe a (small) sigh of relief, however Kyle Richards, Lisa Rinna, Erika Girardi, and a few new additions may still give her a run for her money unless they finally develop storylines of their own.
In addition to RHOBH, Lisa will still be at the helm of Vanderpump Rules, the post apocalyptic cockroach of all Bravo shows – it just can’t be killed! (I jest with love! #BadDecisionsMakeGoodTV #VPR4Evah!) Additionally, rumors are surfacing that PUMP may be the venue for yet another reality show. Lisa and Ken are also in the process of opening a third restaurant.
But RHOBH is, in my opinion, simply lost without Lisa Vanderpump, her pink, and her ponies on it. Apparently, Bravo realizes this too. Lisa confirmed the news of her return today on social media, tweeting,”Yep, never thought I would return, but after many discussions the pump is still in the game. Thank you to all of you.”
