It’s reunion time! Part 2 of the Vanderpump Rules reunion airs Wednesday (May 31) on Bravo.

“There’s never been any reunion in any season, regardless of what was going on, where the cast — all of us — felt united,” Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix shared with E! News ahead of the first reunion episode last week. “It was tough, but I almost felt more confident going into that day than I have on any other day filming a reunion.”

Madix also revealed that she got emotional watching the finale. “I watched it here in New York and I cried, definitely,” she admitted. “It was hard to watch but, at the same time, it felt like another lifetime.”   

After the Season 10 finale aired, Madix broke her silence on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, which was her first interview since #Scandoval broke.

Not familiar with Vanderpump Rules? The series began soaring in ratings after star Tom Sandoval was exposed for cheating on Madix — his nine-year, live-in girlfriend with whom he owns a house — with fellow cast member Raquel Leviss, one of Madix’s best friends. The cheating scandal broke in March, causing producers to pick the cameras back up and film an additional finale episode.

Part one of the reunion features Sandoval and Madix along with fellow cast-members James Kennedy, Lala Kent, Katie Maloney, Tom Schwartz and Scheana Shay. Leviss watched portions of the reunion from a nearby trailer because her and Shay were not allowed to be in the same room together after Leviss filed a restraining order against her co-star, which she later dropped. Leviss will take the stage during part two of the reunion.

Given everything that fans now know about the monthslong affair between Sandoval and Leviss, the season’s final episodes have felt surreal and cringeworthy at times — but it’s paying off in the ratings. The first part of the reunion reportedly snagged another season high of 2.036 million viewers. Meanwhile, the finale reached scored a total of 4.1 million viewers, Variety reports. That number is up from 1.8 million live viewers and a ratings spike carried over to WWHL, which snagged a reported season high of more than 1.4 million viewers thanks to Madix.

During the WWHL interview, Madix went into detail about the cheating scandal, the upcoming reunion and selling the home she shares with Sandoval. “My plan is to sell the house. I want my money out of that house as quickly as possible and I want to move on,” she told Cohen at the time.

Despite living under the same roof, Madix and Sandoval don’t “communicate on any level.” Instead, the former couple relies on Madix’s friend Logan, and Sandoval’s assistant to communicate with each other.

Last week, Madix posted a video of stacked up boxes to her Instagram Story with the caption, “Ready to dip out,” but she’s not moving out just yet. In a follow-up post, Madix teased an ad for a collaboration with personal finance company SoFi. “I’m moving up, not out — well, not yet at least,” she states in the video. “It’s time to get my financial house in order. I will have more to share with you very soon.”
