Vanderpump Recap with Gabby Windey | The Viall Files w/ Nick Viall

[@msjannayvonne]

Literally obsessed with Gabby! Also I cannot STRESS how badly y’all need to go back watch the early seasons of VPR to truly understand how bananas everything in Season 10 is. They’re missing so much essence!

[@lalaa8653]

If you guys get James Kennedy on the show it’ll be the best time seriously!

[@debrarandolph7052]

Yes....James would be awesome.

[@daisywilliams1672]

Full send on this!!

[@lauramoor7730]

Yesssss!!!

[@allexis356]

Agreed!!

[@jasmine__1111]

Omg I know he is the scott disick of VP

[@mnsundos24]

Constructive criticism from a Bravo fan: Next recap on VPR, please have someone who has watched all 10 seasons on the show to discuss. This is extremely frustrating to listen to with people who have such strong opinions based on 10% of the full story, behaviors of cast & season history. The dissection of characters based on one season & production POV on every scene being discussed… is getting boring. Homework: watch all VPR before reunion! Pleaseeee It’s like me giving my POV about the super-bowl without knowing shit about the team, players & history.

[@knockknock16]

I wonder if they even read the comments because every week they get the same criticism and it only get worse.

[@Sunshinelollipops223]

Right! I hate how they are riding so hard for Katie and saying Ariana is Switzerland. They don’t get the dynamics of this group unless you watched all season. Katie and Ariana were not friends until the last three seasons they started building a relationship.

[@ginao6810]

Ironic since this too criticised Howie Mandel for not doing his homework. You guys just read the blurb and your talking like you’ve read the novel!

[@ashleysaavedra8445]

Right! It’s giving howie! Lol

[@tonibrooks9719]

Thank you! I agree.

[@MsHeyall]

My eye is twitching from the lack of vpr knowledge. Leave it to the pros folks

[@carlabillups8828]

Oh, please get your facts straight. Katie, Stassi, Shena Kristen were the starting women on the show. Lisa did not sit down with Ariana and Lala at the start of forming the show. They weren’t a part of the original cast.

[@daphneroman9163]

Exactly!

[@emeraldspencer558]

Thank you! It’s incredibly frustrating listening to them talk so strongly about a show they have not watched untill this season lmao. Do your homework as howie would say 😂😂😂

[@amandalowe9588]

It’s frustrating hearing Nick’s perspective as someone who hasn’t watched from the beginning. It sounded very pretentious how he was talking about Ariana not picking a side with Raquel and Katie, but if he had watched the show, he would know that this version of Raquel is not the version that everyone became friends with, she was a meek underdog who hadn’t done anything bad to anyone.. that obviously changed drastically, but that’s why Ariana was friends with her. I understand how watching season 10 as an isolated event could be viewed that way, but it’s also revisionist history or whatever.

[@allthebunnys]

I could not agree more. Bring on someone who has watched from the beginning and knows the show. I have a hard time listening to some of these episodes because as an OG Vanderpump fan they do not have the history!

[@msjannayvonne]

Literally this!! You can’t accurately review a show on a big platform when you’re missing so much context!

[@knockknock16]

They are kinda Howie Mandeling it without realizing it.

[@rosiedubs6315]

it’s so annoying to hear people watch five episodes and have such strong opinions they know nothing about

[@AM-hf9ol]

@@msjannayvonne riiight!! Like in the beginning talking about Rachel being encouraged by producers. Like no, it’s her def repeating Sandoval and she’s just a dumb bitch that’s being a pick me and thinks toms going to love that she stood up to Katie

[@liz7946]

This is why you need to watch the entire show from the beginning! The majority of things you're confused and wondering about have been addressed in past seasons.

[@allysonreilly]

Natalie is Ali and Amanda’s age- Nick: “you’re what 2, 3 years removed from college…”

[@paulaorozco1468]

Do they even read comments on here? I feel like we've suggested Nick watch VPR from the beginning for a while now LOL.

[@carolyn8737]

Let’s not forget this whole season ariana is grieving and has since opened up about struggles regarding that, she was already going through such a hard time grieving the losses of her dog & grandmother

[@harrylederman1679]

Talking about personal development Gabby really has come into her own... She's incredibly quick-witted and articulate .... I love to see her as a regular guest especially with this Vanderpump Rules recapping; as I love her insights and it's not just the typical stuff regurgitated all over the internet from other commentators... She seems to look at it from all the angles including producer input .... BTW she is all class and very much presents that way also

[@1231amandamarie]

Obsessed with Gabby!! She needs her own podcast!!!

[@gwengreenawalt946]

I agree! I love Gabby's personality! 😊

[@amywalker3647]

It started with Scheanna and Brandi Glanville. Scheana was having an affair with Eddie Cipriane. Brandi came into SUR and started a fight with Scheanna. So, then they wrote VPR.

[@alliem5542]

Natalie talking about Charlie being hyper focused on her looks…What a weird thing to say. What a mean girl thing to say.

[@adorejayy834]

This is a slap in the face to people who actually watched everything from SEASON 1 don’t bring nobody to speak unless they know the entire dynamics

[@cschulz9865]

All schwartz had to say was "Raquel, please, we are having a conversation."

[@marissayost7189]

We want gabby back …. To talk about gabby.

[@YasmineB2468]

Charli told Raquel that she was wrong & I appreciated seeing that. I really wish she had a larger role in this show.

[@katiewentworth3909]

You HAVE to watch from season 1, your mind is going to be absolutely blown

[@Hoopsfan9967]

Literally I feel like they are missing SO much context and hilarious moments

[@katiewentworth3909]

@@Hoopsfan9967 they have no idea lol they started as friends before the show so since episode 1 it’s been absolute insanity

[@laurazytczak9840]

The Vanderpump super fan didn’t do her homework… don’t make fun of Howie Mandel if you don’t have your facts straight

[@nashwalala]

Scheana was the beginning of the show. She was the bridge between RHOBH & VPR. She had an affair when she was 21 with Brandi husband at the time and was confronted on RHOBH & the cameras continued to follow her into the restaurant for VPR. Lala, Ariana & James were not part of the OG cast. Though Ariana was in the background as she was Scheana’s friend.

[@nashwalala]

Ariana & Raquel WERE friends off camera. & she was always against the bully gang up type of behaviour Katie and alot of the ex cast used to participate in so she often took up for Raquel & anyone really that was on the outside. Most of them have a good season, this one happens to be Katie’s.

[@nicolewalsh6656]

Raquel also took the dog away from James and doesn’t let him see it so how can she sit there and tell Katie it’s mean to threaten to not let Schwartz see their dogs?? 🤦‍♀️ Zero self awareness

[@haleywhite8192]

I love how Gabby and Natalie connect so well, if it's not happening already they would have the best friendship!

[@rachelsheumaker120]

Could not stop laughing during this episode.. Natalie and gabby bounce off each other so well please bring gabby back!!!!!

[@aprilc6982]

We need more of Natalie, her sense of humor and delivery is top notch. And Gabby combined with her?! SO good!

[@vanessahobbes3072]

I love gabby! I wanted to hear more though about her DWTS experience/Bachelor days!

[@mandymechecc]

OBSESSED WITH GABBY! She’s the best bachelorette ever! So witty, insightful and eloquent!

[@amywalker3647]

Sandoval is the one feeding her lines and producing her.

[@michaelmayer-o3s]

another puppet for Sandavol.

[@tis1043]

100%

[@Toematetoe95]

Gabby’s voice sounds like a younger Jennifer Coolidge

[@KathrynLujan]

Please have Gabby back!!!!!

[@anitaspencer5502]

Katie Maloney confirmed that she actually didn’t buy that from that store. So apparently she already had it. Was it a gift from Tom and she didn’t want anyone to know that?

[@carlabillups8828]

Tell us more!!!

[@suzywongg2716]

Yes, Katie said that the store doesn't sell jewellery that expensive and as Sheana said where did she get the $790

[@viktoriajones5271]

So annoying that any comment that says that Natalie shouldn’t be on the shows Cus she adds nothing other than mean girl energy gets deleted…

[@cindylee7519]

Natalie gives off "young mean girl" vibes

[@elaynadodson1163]

Yes she does, I can’t stand when she’s on.

[@evelynneleven]

She’s closer to 30 than anything she’s not a young mean girl maybe just a mean girl. Young sounds like we’re talking about a teenager here!

[@itszaque]

@@evelynneleven she’s literally 24, there’s an 18 year age gap between her and Nick

[@evelynneleven]

@@itszaque oh I thought she was 28, she’s right in the middle of 18 & 30 then. But still calling someone a young mean girl sounds like we’re talking about a teenager lol

[@MandyWasHere]

TOTALLY. And to the people saying that young mean girl gives high school vibes, its because she acts like a literal child. You can tell her age from the shit she says.

[@Xxmilkshake202xX]

The producers had nothing to do with making Rachel confront Katie. That was all Sandoval who thought it was hot when Rachel came to Lala’s birthday uninvited.

[@mariissaak]

I’m calling Bs on the graphic design class mean girls photo distribution lol

[@emeraldspencer558]

Lol for real

[@Hoopsfan9967]

Ariana and Lala were not OG cast members. It was Stassi, Scheana, Katie, Kristen, Sandoval, and Jax. Schwartz was on the show because of Katie but didn’t work there.

[@jillkubitschek2145]

Lisa’s speech was because that was supposed to be the finale. They added this weeks episode to cover the affair that came out.

[@mollyvatuna5310]

well this past episode was supposed to be the original finale so that’s why the speech that Lisa gave was kind of laid out like that because it was meant to be like the last episode of season 10 but then they pick the cameras up again and that’s why there’s a new finale

[@Sunshinelollipops223]

Nick can’t talk about their relationships in terms of the friend group. You have to watch all seasons Katie was a bully she is not the nice girl. Ariana is the nice girl she stands with the under dogs and Raquel was an under dog. Katie and Ariana were never really friends until later in the seasons.

[@suzeeabdelrahman6978]

The point of Raquel asking the sex life and whether Ariana finds Sandoval attractive etc is because Sandoval most likely fed Raquel a narrative that his relationship is going to end etc so that Raquel will agree to go on with their affair

[@mestes7]

Did you guys miss the whole scene? It killed me😂 “Hey Raquel we’re talking about eating ass” someone else said afterward “we’re talking about you Raquel” ☠️☠️☠️☠️

[@mariahmiller5048]

Dude…gabby is so hilarious she has such a intelligence to all of her jokes. Gah I love her she needs to be my bestie 😘😍

[@mayakiruluta2084]

Agreed 🥰 she feels like someone you could just talk to for hours

[@zee08908]

It's because Lisa has known James basically his whole life, she's like his godmother.😅

[@carahall1346]

This episode feels way more catty than necessary

[@10113sarah]

Dude. He got Ariana so wrong. She’s not Switzerland - she has firm values and beliefs in how people should be treated and is highly logical vs emotional. If you watched the show you’d know why she handles herself the way she does. Woof.

[@briannamichele5392]

You need to watch all the seasons! Ariana is NOT Switzerland! She speaks up more than anyone through all the years and calls people out. You need people who have watched all the seasons to recap!

[@nicolewalsh6656]

Apparently someone did say to Raquel off camera wtf are you doing?! You’re going to look so bad and look like she lacks empathy. And then right after she apologized to Katie saying I do have empathy lol this was one of their friends who’s not on the show that talked about it on one of the vanderpump podcasts. She was like I didn’t mean for her to go interrupt an important conversation between Tom and Katie hahah and the fact she took the exact words out of her friend mouth to apologize to Katie shows that she didn’t mean any of it. Raquel just didn’t want to look bad on camera

[@Xxmilkshake202xX]

He didn’t end up being able to go the five days without alcohol so he couldn’t fertilize her eggs.

[@abcdefghijklmnop_861]

That is the worlds best and most chill and relaxed dog ever !! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

[@marie_b_b6172]

Im sorry this girl is not a super fan. 1st few seasons are gold and the drama just come sso naturally . smh

[@suzeeabdelrahman6978]

Love this episode and Gabby is so witty and relateable ❤

[@AROBI2104]

Watching all 10 seasons it seems like Ariana followed Sandoval’s lead on who was in the group and out of the group. Seems she did this with everyone but Katie. And the trend was if a cast member had a strong confident personality, Sandoval was at odds with them. James had a strong personality but he was polarizing so Sandoval was happy to take him under his wing.

[@emeraldspencer558]

Lmao can you guys please watch the show from season one. It’s painfully obvious how much y’all don’t know. Arian and lala were not even on season one. They did not start the show.

[@T_Skye]

Ariana is NOT notorious for being Switzerland! Watch prior seasons before you make foolish statements like that!!! Ariana shows empathy. That's not the same thing.

[@10113sarah]

I literally said the same thing. This is such frustrating commentary! The reason people adore Ariana is because she is strong in her convictions, sees both sides and will not shake in her beliefs for the show. If she doesn’t agree she will absolutely say something. Kind of insulting for him to even make that comment. Also, he needs the history of some of the cast past behavior

[@ArcherGinger]

Great group recap!

[@sylviadurgerian4176]

Natalie should NOT be on this podcast. She over-powers the entire show

[@nafafonafafofo]

Natalie is not a good addition to the team imo. Is it really necessary to have four hosts?

[@mgskebo]

Someone has mentioned St. Louis/Missouri so much in the most recent episodes! Makes me happy lol

[@rn1364]

Schwartz is not a by-stander. He is a vulturous sneaky participant.

[@vikkibair1546]

Love Gabby ❤❤❤

[@Jbaabyy9]

9:00 VPR drama starts 🤪

[@michaelmayer-o3s]

The conversation between Tom and Ariana frustrates me. Tom knows about his own affair and is fitting in comments to make himself look good later and Ariana look bad and use against her later. With that, Ariana does not have that same advantage and isn't purposely saying things to make herself look good, So people shouldn't judge Ariana for anything...she was set up! For what she did say, I fully agree if a dude shows up at 3am drunk and hasnt spent even a dinner with you in 2 weeks or a month, its not happening. That's on Tom, not Ariana. She simply asked to have dinner together...and then sex. He is giving Ariana zero as a partner but then is expecting things from his partner? Go away Tom!

[@jenniferwesley_]

Not me just finding out Gabby is from my hometown 🫶🏽

[@sofiejunk]

Omg Ariana & LALA were not the original crew. Whaaat ru talking abbb

[@MandyWasHere]

Why is Nathalie here? What is her credibility? I dont get it. It gives “ill give you a job and salary babe dont worry” vibes

[@tgrami795]

Yes-the whole “pop culture correspondent” thing is ridic. 🙄 If anything, that should be part of Allie and Amanda’s job titles.

[@OhNicole2]

been asking myself the same thing!

[@ayeeshahm9078]

It's the hypergamy version of being a nepo baby. Gossip is the family business

[@10113sarah]

She’s his fiancé. It’s fine.

[@MandyWasHere]

@@10113sarah nah bcus her opinions are gold to him, and his co-host opinions are constantly brushed over, Amanda has excellent and intelligent takes, Nathalies opinions are useless. Sorry not sorry

Y'all need jax on! I just saw his heather McDonald interview and I need to see Nick and his banter and explaining all this shit😅❤

[@lindsayacon2006]

Whattttt?! Gabby is from O’Fallon?!

[@gingerlulu5587]

I love that Nick said his favorite is Katie. She does not get enough credit for how amazing she is. I think she has had the most growth of anyone on the show. I hope she kills it in business but I can't wait to see her with a real man. Sensitive, strong, and supportive, not selfish, spineless, and Swartzy.

[@erinkiely9841]

I feel Natalie so hard lol like anyone who did that in high school is not a good person now lmao

[@ArcherGinger]

Thought it interesting Tom did not know that Ariana & Katie had a logo for Something About Her! She was keeping him at a distance re: the sandwich shop since he jumped in and wanted control with “her” cocktail book📚

[@sofiejunk]

How do you not know James & Lisa’s background? Haha wtf guys, DO YOUR HOMEWORK.. c’mon!

[@ArcherGinger]

IMO Raquel played Ariana & Scheana by getting them to mother her and giving her a place to stay after breaking up with James. James paid for everything with he & Raquel were together!

[@creamsaroyan7358]

Raquel and Tom are so cool. They steal she show. Thunder Rules

[@laurazytczak9840]

That girl doesn’t know how the show was started, Lala and Ariana were NOT in it at that time… sorry, but I tuned out after that..

[@Sah0419]

I like that girl’s beige two piece set. Does anyone know where it’s from?

[@caseyflemming6257]

Hear me out - shes always been sooo awkward i.e James reading her her engagement speech 😂 she acts like an alien that is pretending To be a mean girl but like doesn’t know how to be a human/mean girl so she watches people and tries to mimic their behavior but it goes horribly wrong. I think she’s on the spectrum I truly do and I do not mean this in an offensive way.

[@tonibrooks9719]

Please watch all seasons so you can do a better recap. You really don’t have a full understanding of the cast if you don’t.

[@ArcherGinger]

I was under the impression that Ariana ‘s eggs were never actually fertilized which is a good thing

[@susand4191]

Lisa met James’ Parents Season 1 & then hired James on.

[@annemariegoldberg3549]

Much better without Natalie. We come here for Nick’s insights. Instead, we get Natalie dumbing it down and telling juvenile jokes.

[@OhNicole2]

super juvenile

[@andreegodbout868]

It was cringey

[@ArcherGinger]

I had very different idea on Natalie before this episode. Didn’t like her off color jokes.

[@lauramoor7730]

What I didn’t understand with the lightning necklace seen was she had that necklace on way before she supposedly bought it in a random store why would they be selling that necklace there and why did she have it on in many interviews before?

[@BlairBoggletrot]

I don't trust the whole necklace thing. I still believe Tom got it for her, but she needed to pretend he didn't.

[@lauramoor7730]

@@BlairBoggletrot exactly that’s what I thought he did too! And she had that necklace on in so many interviews and on so many pictures just walking around in the mall or whatever so I don’t understand why she would buy it in a random store and why would they even sell this necklace there what does that store have to do with Tom and his band? And if it’s not about Tom, then what are the chances that this necklace is sold there? This whole thing is just annoying lol.

[@cierragayler]

It’s cause Lisa was close with James parents she looks at him as a second son and like his family has a lot of issues

[@ginao6810]

Do your homework guys! You’ve only read the blurb and you’re talking like you’ve read the whole novel!
