Over the years, Bravo has brought its fanbase more than just a few memorable moments. Fromone-hit-wonder housewiveswho flew too close to the sun toTeresa Giudice’s table flip onThe Real Housewives of New Jerseythat made us collectively say “did that really just happen?” But just a few weeks ago, audiences of the now decade-running seriesVanderpump Ruleswere in for the shock of a lifetime when news broke that long-term coupleAriana MadixandTom Sandovalhad split due to a cheating scandal. While filming for the show’s current season was a wrap, producers did what they do best and immediately picked up cameras and ran into the trenches to make sure not a moment was lost on what’s now being dubbed as “Scandoval.” While it may be some time before audiences see the recent events unfold on their screens, Bravo has just dropped the mid-season trailer that reveals a taste of what’s to come.
Of course, the teaser covers things that we were already aware would be happening over the rest of the season, likeScheana ShayandBrock Davies’ wedding, and what we all thought would be this season’s main drama—a kiss between the recently separatedTom Schwartzand castmateRaquel Leviss. But, as the face of Bravo,Andy Cohen, teased just a few weeks ago, there’splenty of dramaup ahead and boy, did this trailer show it all.
In it, we see the fallout of the cheating scandal with the girls rallying by Madix’s side after the truth about Sandoval and Leviss came to light. A tearful moment from Shay appears to show her addressing the physical assault claims and we also get a silent clip of Madix screaming Raquel’s name. Possibly the most talked about moment is at the very end when Sandoval asks Madix if she wants anything, to which she responds in the most incredible way possible, dryly saying, “for you to die.” It’s definitely going to be a rocky and emotional few episodes ahead so Bravo fans, buckle up.

What’s Going on With Madix and Sandoval?
For those who may not know, and we’ll try to keep this short, the drama all began to unfold when news broke that Madix caught Sandoval in what would be revealed as a months-long affair with their castmate Leviss. Madix and Sandoval had gotten together during the show’s second season after being close friends for years before that, making them one of the longest-lasting couples on the series. WhileThe Real Housewives of Salt Lake Cityhad theirJen Shah-based prison drama andThe Real Housewives of Beverly HillshadErika Jayne’s alleged knowledge of her attorney husband’s misdoings, this scandal has quickly toppled everything that came before it.
As the season continues, there are going to be a lot more dissectable moments so if you haven’t done so already, join the fanbase and get caught up onVanderpump Ruleswith all seasons nowstreaming on Peacock. Check out the mid-season trailer below.
