VPR’s Scheana Shay Clarified That Her Second Wedding Would Have Been Filmed With Or Without Katie Maloney
Scheana Shay gave a status update regarding her former friend/Vanderpump Rules co-star Katie Maloney.
The former SURver also debunked the claim that production wouldn’t have filmed her wedding to Brock Davies without Katie in the mix.
Frenemies?!
During the Scheananigans podcast, Scheana answered a fan question about her falling out with Katie.
In a nutshell, Scheana hasn’t “seen her or spoken to her in almost a year.”
“So, that’s where we stand, clearly far apart.”
Re: Katie’s presence at Scheana’s wedding …
One of Scheana’s fans asked about Katie hinting that VPR production wouldn’t have filmed Scheana’s second wedding without her being there.
“That’s absolutely not true,” declared Summer Moon’s mom. “Of course, they wanted her to come because they wanted the drama.”
“They wanted [Katie] to film. They wanted the stuff, the drama with Raquel, and all of that. So it was ultimately Katie’s decision.” Scheana explicitly stated, “Katie did not have to come to Mexico. Was production pushing her? I’m sure.”
“Of course, they want that awkward drama. It’s a reality show. But that’s ultimately her choice. So, she chose to come. Obviously, she doesn’t want to miss out on an episode. As much as they do the flashbacks to what’s still going on in LA, I think she wanted to be there.”
“[Katie] wanted to go to Mexico. She wanted the free cast trip. But no one ever wants to be left out of a trip. No one wants to miss money. And, as you know, when it was Katie’s trip, the girls’ trip to Havasu, I missed out not just on filming, but I missed out on the money and the trip. But that wasn’t up to me.”
“My wedding was up to [Katie]. No one forced her to go.”
Austen Kroll SLAMS Leva Bonaparte for Calling Him ‘Most Complained About,’ Accuses Her of Staging Drama to Save Her Reputation, Claims She Booted Him From Her Restaurant, All While the Scandal Accidentally Catapults Her Business
Austen Kroll isn’t holding back anymore. After weeks of whispers, Instagram subtweets, and rumors circulating the Hamptons, Austen has gone public with his fury over Leva Bonaparte, accusing her of turning a personal feud into full-blown drama — all while ironically boosting her restaurant’s fame.
“She called me the ‘most complained about’ person?” Austen exclaimed, disbelief and anger thick in his voice. “That’s not just unfair — it’s a complete manipulation. She’s staging drama to save her own reputation, and I’m caught in the middle.”
The Restaurant Fallout
Austen claims that the feud didn’t stay in words. According to him, Leva went so far as to boot him from her own restaurant after a minor disagreement, leaving him shocked and publicly humiliated. “I can’t believe she would do that over something so small,” Austen said. “It wasn’t just personal, it was professional too. And yet somehow, it spun in her favor.”
Insiders reveal the irony isn’t lost on anyone. “Leva’s restaurant has never had more attention,” one source explained. “Every fight, every comment, every post about Austen being ‘complained about’ is driving traffic through the roof. People are curious, people are talking — it’s the ultimate reality TV paradox.”
Accusations of Staged Drama
Austen is adamant that the drama is orchestrated. “I’m not just another storyline for her to fix her image,” he said firmly. “She knows how to make herself the victim, the heroine, and somehow it turns everything in her favor. I’m done being part of her play.”
The Hamptons React
Friends and castmates report that the tension has divided the house. Some sympathize with Austen, frustrated by Leva’s tactics, while others are caught up in the spectacle, unsure what’s real and what’s manufactured. “It’s like walking through a minefield,” one insider admitted. “One comment, one move, and another firestorm ignites. The house is buzzing.”
A Love-Hate Spotlight
Despite the chaos, Austen isn’t retreating. “I’m not backing down,” he declared. “I’m tired of being misrepresented. And if this ends up shining a light on how much manipulation goes on behind the scenes, then fine. But I won’t let this fake drama define me or my name.”
In the Hamptons, where every slight becomes a headline and every feud fuels curiosity, Austen and Leva’s explosive clash may be the most talked-about storyline yet — proving once again that in reality TV, sometimes the drama is the star of the show.
