Andy Cohen Shares Rare Vanderpump Rules Throwback Photos: See the Pics
Plus, see what throwback photos Vanderpump Rules' Katie Maloney and Ariana Madix shared as well.
Vanderpump Rules is officially coming back for Season 12 with a whole new round of SUR-vers, and after sharing their initial reactions to the news of the cast change on Nov. 26, Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen host Andy Cohen, as well as Katie Maloney and Ariana Madix, all took to Instagram where they shared never-before-seen, behind-the-scenes photos.
Suffice to say, there are a lot of things that have happened in the SUR-vers' lives over the past 12 years. They've gotten married, experienced heart break, explored their careers, and still indulged in the occasional Pumptini.
The following photos show just a glimpse at what went on behind the cameras, when the cast were just living their lives and having fun.
Andy Cohen's throwback photos of the Vanderpump Rules cast
Andy took to his Instagram Story on Nov. 26, where he shared several photos from the sets of the reunions and WWHL. "[Pump Rules] nostalgia-romp-photo-dump," Andy labeled the following photos, including one of VPR boss, Lisa Vanderpump, sitting on the set of WWHL with her beloved late dog, Giggy, in her lap.
Giggy also made another appearance on set at one of the Vanderpump Rules reunions while Andy knelt in front of him, looking at his phone. "I have no memory of this but I love it. Praying to Giggy seems right," Andy wrote over the photo.
Andy also showed off the first time the Vanderpump Rules cast made their WWHL debut, with Tom Sandoval, Scheana Shay, Jax Taylor, and Stassi Schroeder hanging out in the Clubhouse with drinks in their hands.
He also gave a glimpse at Tom Snadoval and Jax hanging out at the Clubhouse, with their shirts off while wearing goggles. "ALWAYS great sports on WWHL!" Andy wrote over the photo.
Andy even gave a behind-the-scenes look at the reunions, showing the VPR Season 1 cast, including Katie and Kristen Doute, hanging out on set. "First reunion!" he wrote over the photos. "[Tom] Schwartz is missing." In another photo, taken all the way back at the VPR Season 4 reunion, Lala Kent can be seen wearing a blue velvet turtleneck dress at her first reunion ever, alongside James Kennedy, Scheana, Tom, Sandoval, and Ariana.
He then concluded his big post of photos with a collage of small photos taken of the cast over the years, setting it to the Vanderpump Rules theme song, "Raise Your Glass" by Dena Deadly.

Katie also took to her Instagram Story on Nov. 26, where she posted her own photos from the past 11 seasons. She first shared a group photo of the ladies of Vanderpump Rules, along with Brittany Cartwright, all dressed up for a night on the town, and on vacation, together.
Katie highlighted all of her close friendships from the course of the show. She posted photos of her: showing off her matching earrings with her now-business partner, Ariana; drinking during a night on the town with Stassi; making a kissy face alongside Kristen and Stassi; and wearing primary colors with Brittany, Kristen, and Stassi.
Ariana then posted a photo alongside the Vanderpump Rules girls, including Pandora Vanderpump Sabo, and Ally Lewber. Both Ariana and Katie chose to let the photos speak for themselves, letting the memories remain forever.
When will Vanderpump Rules Season 12 premiere?
Viewers will just have to wait a little bit longer to see the premiere of Vanderpump Rules Season 12, as the show will begin production in 2025. The cast, premiere, and all of the other juicy details will be announced at a later time.
But, big things are in store for the new season. Per a press release, the new SUR-vers will be "as complicatedly involved with one another as their iconic predecessors."
