Welcome to the recap for Vanderpump Rules Season 12, Episode 10. Last week, things backfired for Angelica when she told the group that Chris and Jason’s OnlyFans video was “incestuous.” The cousins explained the video description was spicy to get clicks, but the content was not. This turned everyone in the group against her, including Shayne, who decided to end things. Unfortunately for him, Angelica didn’t quite get the message. Here’s exactly what went down in Vanderpump Rules Season 12, Episode 10: “Threesome’s a Crowd.”
What happened in Vanderpump Rules Season 12, Episode 10?
Gay Pride was on the horizon, and Venus was ecstatic to be chosen to run SUR’s Pride event. When he showed up at Lisa’s for a photo shoot for the occasion, he opened up to her about the struggles he had growing up gay. Meanwhile, Kim and Marcus were back together for the 100th time and discussed the possibilities of parenthood. But while they were going strong, Audrey and Chris were not. Audrey decided she and Chris should just be friends, which left Chris wondering where it all went wrong.
Venus opens up to Lisa about his past
Kim and Natalie were back to being friends, for now. The two met up for a boxing class, which was the perfect place for them to punch out any remaining animosity they had towards one another.
Afterwards, they FaceTimed Angelica to check in on her, as she just had a boob job. Angelica said all was well and she’d be back at the end of the week. Natalie scoffed in her confessional, “It’s super convenient for Angelica that she was dropping bombs on Chris and Jason in Paso, avoiding any accountability. And now she gets to disappear to Houston for a week to get new boobs. I’m assuming it’s a lot cheaper than in Beverly Hills.” The shade!
Meanwhile, Venus, Jason, Chris, and Marcus got to experience the magic that is Villa Rosa. Venus was chosen to host SUR’s Gay Pride event and took them there for a photo shoot. While Chris daydreamed how he could end up with Lisa, Venus caught up with the queen herself.
He told Lisa their trip went well, but he had a hard time talking with guys. Venus shared this was because he was scared growing up that others would find out he was gay. He said, “Once I did come out of the closet, I felt so rejected by everyone around me, I ended up threatening to kill myself, and I got sent to a mental hospital.”
This hit home to Lisa, who shared that her brother had committed suicide. In her confessional she said, “You get used to it, but you never get over it. It does define me.” However, Venus was happy with where he was at now. He said, “This pride, it will be a good experience to really feel how I’ve always wanted to feel.”
Jason gets demoted at SUR
All the hard work and studying Jason had done for his new role as a SURver was finally put to the test. It was his first day off training, although you wouldn’t know it according to Demy. In her confessional she said, “Jason has been training for a really long time. Like four times longer than normal people. It’s probably because he’s making so much money on his OnlyFans doing weird things with his cousin.”
His first table was none other than Lisa and Ken. When Lisa quizzed Jason as to what was in the eggplant dish and the crab cakes, Jason was ready for her. He confidently responded, “eggplant,” and that the crab cakes were in “cake form.” Is he wrong? Still, Lisa decided to banish him to the host stand. Which will make things quite interesting once Angelica comes back.
Across town, Audrey met up with her friend Parker to discuss the doubts she was having about her relationship with Chris. Was she ignoring the red flags right in front of her? Still, the two had a date at Universal Studios, and she wasn’t about to drop a free trip to the park, so she met up with him anyways.
They both looked cute in their Harry Potter wizard robes: Audrey in Hufflepuff and Chris in Gryffindor. Everything seemed fine as they wandered Diagon Alley, drinking their butterbeer and picking out wands. But when Chris couldn’t do a simple “Ventus” spell that Audrey did in one go, Audrey knew what she had to do.
However, Chris was oblivious to the inner turmoil in Audrey’s mind. He had visions of Audrey being the Hermione to his Ron. But those were quickly cast away once Audrey dropped the bad news.
Marcus and Kim talked marriage and babies
Any magic Chris had felt towards Audrey was quickly squashed once she put him in the friend zone. She wanted Chris to be more romantic, and he just wasn’t giving her that vibe. So, she told him she wanted to take a step back.
Chris was shook. In his confessional he said, “If I had to bet my life on it, I would have 100% assumed that she wanted to be with me. Maybe I completely just misjudged this whole situation.”
Meanwhile, Marcus and Kim were in a good place this week, so naturally that meant they should have the conversation about getting married and having kids. The plan was to get engaged and married in the next few years and then have kids. But the kids might come sooner rather than later because Kim had stopped using birth control. Oop.
Jason left the host stand to go visit Shayne on the set of his latest “vertical micro drama.” Because apparently no one can sit through a two-hour movie anymore. Shayne introduced Jason to the crew in the hopes he could start acting in these too.
Afterwards, the two chatted about Natalie and Angelica. Although Shayne was still attracted to Natalie, he wasn’t going to get in Jason’s way if he was vibing with her. Shayne dished that he ended things with Angelica but might change his mind once he sees her new boobs. Facepalm.
Jason said in his confessional, “Look, a boob job can’t enhance personality. That takes f*cking therapy. To this day, Angelica has not given me a genuine apology. We like to call that in Jersey, ‘Fake as f*ck.’”
Chris pulled his best Jerry Maguire for Audrey
Venus had another heart-to-heart about his struggles, this time with Parker and Ryan over at TomTom. However, things were good now between Venus and his parents. He said he talked to his mom every day, and his dad even watched old episodes of VPR to talk about them with Venus. Progress!
The next day everyone met up at the beach for McKenna’s birthday. And things were awkward between Chris and Audrey, to say the least. Chris was still in shock and felt that “the math wasn’t mathing.” And Audrey was still confused.
After a slo-mo eighties-style montage of the group playing beach volleyball, they all headed over to the bar. Natalie whipped out her lip gloss for a makeout session with Jason and Alison, McKenna’s friend.
As that went on, Chris pulled Audrey aside and did his best Jerry Maguire “you complete me” speech. He said, “I don’t want to just hook up with someone and have fun … I want something real … and I’m not good at this sh*t because I’ve been so focused on myself.”
He added, “I really started thinking about possibly having a future with you and seeing where things actually go. I want you. I want us, I f*cking like you a lot. And I want to prove that.”
Audrey was momentarily swayed. She shared in her confessional, “I believe him, I think? I hope he’s worth a second chance.”
Vanderpump Rules airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo. It can be streamed on Peacock the next day.
