Meet the #PumpRules Season 5 cast below:
Amidst all the chaos with her staff,
Lisa Vanderpump manages to keep it classy as she balances her multiple restaurants, businesses and philanthropic efforts. Lisa has her hands full with revamping SUR from the menu to the décor to the music and even the staff. To top it all off, Katie and Tom have requested her to officiate their wedding ceremony!
Ariana Madix finds herself edged out with Katie and her fierce band of bridesmaids when she aligns herself with the wrong party, with her and Tom's attempts at diplomacy and maintaining friendships with Lala and James as well as the rest of the group ultimately backfiring. Seemingly all of SUR rallies for wedding planning, bridal showers and a bachelorette party, leaving Ariana's place in Katie and Tom's wedding uncertain. Ariana also faces big struggles in her relationship with Tom: when she pitches her own cocktail book, she suspects Sandoval intends to steal her spotlight.
James Kennedy finds himself as SUR's biggest outcast, along with his best friend Lala. His explosive temper stretches Lisa's patience to the limits as he continues to torment her SUR staff and instigate fights at PUMP. Ultimately, his job is on the line as his behavior puts her business and himself at risk for destruction.
Although
Jax Taylor is in the best relationship of his life, working with his girlfriend of one year, Brittany, at SUR in addition to living together is proving to be a challenge for the former playboy and gossip king. Jax must learn to live with a country tough Kentucky girl who won't tolerate his mischief; and when Brittany's conservative mother comes to town, Jax has no choice but to explain his sordid and reckless past to his potential future mother-in-law.
Katie Maloney has been focusing on planning the perfect wedding, naming bridesmaids, securing a beautiful venue, and throwing a joint bachelor/bachelorette party in New Orleans with her fiancé. The road to the wedding is not paved smoothly though, as Katie has been having nasty fights with Schwartz and everyone can't help but wonder if the two can keep it together to pull off a successful wedding and make the ultimate commitment to one another.
Kristen Doute is happier than ever with her boyfriend Carter and with her renewed best friendship with Stassi and Katie, but she can't seem to escape the Jax Taylor rumor mill. Shortly after Lisa hires Jax's girlfriend Brittany at SUR, he spreads a scandalous rumor about an intimate encounter between Brittany and Kristen.
Lala Kent has never been one to shy away from vocalizing her colorful opinions about her co-workers. However, she is now at the risk of being pushed out for good by Katie and Scheana when a bit of scandalous gossip about her possibly profitable love life gets passed through the grapevine.
Now that Stassi, Kristen and Katie have mended their relationship,
Scheana Shay works to figure out where she stands within the BFF triangle but her aggressive attempts could potentially land her on the outs. Scheana even tries acting cruelly towards Katie's arch nemesis Lala, but even that's not enough to prove her loyalty and dodge the three best friends' attacks.
Stassi Schroeder has finally managed to make her way back in with her best friends, but is far behind the rest of the group in areas of love and struggles to overcome her break up with Patrick. She decides that a fabulous trip to Montauk will help, but is sadly disappointed when she ventures to dip her toe back in the dating pool and wonders if she will ever find love again.
Tom Sandoval and Ariana find themselves caught in the middle of a SUR war as they try to maintain their friendships with James and Lala as well as the rest of the group, but when Lala's lies become too outrageous for even them to handle, they are forced to pick sides once and for all. On the career front, Tom has put his music career on hold and tries to break back into the world of modeling with fashion shoots and a brand new portfolio.
Tom Schwartz continues to struggle with his lifelong commitment issues as he heads towards the biggest commitment of his life: marriage. Schwartz and Katie throw a wild joint bachelor/bachelorette party in New Orleans involving gator hunting, unexpected make outs and other hilarious hijinks that ensue. However, the celebration leads to some of the biggest fights of their relationship leading Schwartz's closest friends to question whether he should call the whole thing off.
