She's done!
Lisa Vanderpump will NOT continue filming The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills — and has no plans to return to the hit show that made her a reality TV star, RadarOnline.com can exclusively report.
According to a show insider, drama between the mogul and the other women, especially former best friends Kyle Richards and Dorit Kemsley, and became "too much" for her to handle after the tragic death of her brother Mark in May, and a number of other all-consuming professional projects.
"She was dealing with grief, filming Vanderpump Rules, opening new restaurant TomTom, and running the Vanderpump Dog Foundation," the insider explained to RadarOnline.com. "She was not equipped to handle Housewives, even before the drama happened."
As RadarOnline.com first reported, Vanderpump got into a huge fight with Kemsley after a source said the blond beauty adopted a puppy from Vanderpump Dogs, then dropped it off at a shelter after the pooch "nipped" at her young kids.
After a brief period on camera fighting with the other women, Vanderpump is "no longer" filming anything related to RHOBH this year, the insider said.
As Us Weekly reported, she just skipped a cast trip to France.
"She has no plans to return to the show," the insider added. "But who knows what the future holds."
She will, however, remain on her successful spinoff show Vanderpump Rules, commanding her animal rescue organization and ruling over her restaurant empire.
