Furious Lisa Vanderpump Threatens To Move 'VPR' To New Network After Quitting 'RHOBH'

Lisa Vanderpump has threatened to move Vanderpump Rules from Bravo to a new network amid quitting Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, RadarOnline.com can exclusively reveal.
Lisa believes she's been "dealt a dirty hand" by Bravo after they refused to air some of her filmed philanthropic efforts this season. She's also had it with her catty co-stars who "talked s**t" about her all season, the source said.
The reality star, who is an executive producer of VPR, is looking “at many, many offers and options” as she's "tired" of being "disrespected" by her co-stars and Bravo.
The insider explained the reality star's position of power in the matter.
“Lisa Vanderpump is the star of two of Bravo’s highest rated series. She works 24/7 to make the shows a success. Not only did Lisa deliver the central storyline for this season of RHOBH, she also continues to deliver ratings success for Vanderpump Rules.”
In consideration of her high standing at the network, the informant tells RadarOnline.com exclusively Lisa is "highly offended by how she’s been treated without any respect or consideration for the success she’s built for the network.”
A second source explained to RadarOnline.com that Lisa is contractually obligated to keep VPR on Bravo until 2020 — but is already thinking ahead to future seasons.
Readers know Lisa officially quit RHOBH on June 4 — more than six months after RadarOnline.com first broke the news in November of her plans to step away after eight years onscreen.
A source revealed she was fed up over the falling out from her former best friends Kyle Richards and Dorit Kemsley, in addition to her brother’s tragic death early last year.
The drama hit an all-time high with RadarOnline.com’s bombshell exclusive about Lisa and Dorit’s fight over a Vanderpump Pets shelter dog. Though the women accused Lisa of leaking the story to RadarOnline.com, RadarOnline.com vehemently denied the claims.
A source confirmed Lisa will not be attending the taping this week, though she had originally planned to.
“Lisa is being burned at the stake," revealed the source, adding, "It should come as no surprise that Lisa is considering offers from competitor networks that treat their talent with dignity and respect. Lisa always wins."
When RadarOnline.com reached out to Lisa for comment, she said: "Of course this is absolutely not true about taking Vanderpump Rules elsewhere. The network is where this hit show was created by myself and Evolution and I’m very proud to have BRAVO as our home for many years to come.”
