Bravo made the announcement on November 26, with a press release stating that the new cast for Season 12 will be a new batch of "close-knit SUR-vers who are as complicatedly involved with one another as their iconic predecessors."

Lisa herself weighed in on the news, stating, "The last 12 years of filming have been an extraordinary run full of laughter, tears and everything in between. I can’t thank enough those who have shared their lives. How I love you all. In the restaurant business, one shift always gives way to another. Cheers to the next generation of Vanderpump Rules."
Added Vanderpump Rules executive producer Alex Baskin, "What a thrill it is to build on the legacy of this series by doing it all over again. With profound appreciation for the original group and their iconic run, we can’t wait for the audience to see a dynamic new group of co-workers and friends make their way through life together."
