On May 8, Hulu released the reunion episode for the second season of its Lisa Vanderpump-led reality series, Vanderpump Villa. The entire cast, with the exception of Siadi, got together for the reunion, rehashing the most controversial events from the season. According to Lisa, Siadi was out of the country. The reunion was hosted by Lisa and Stassi, who asked the cast members burning questions that were at times hard to answer.
Mariano got confronted by Lisa and Stassi about his alleged affair with Demi Engemann at the castle, a cast member of Hulu’s The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.
Marciano didn’t say much about the accusations but acknowledged that they did have sexual relations. “Demi and I had a very strong attraction that led to stuff outside the castle”, he said.
The hottest topic of discussion was, unsurprisingly, Sianna and Siadi’s roller coaster of a relationship.
Sher struggled to feel sympathy for Sianna after going back to Siadi so many times. “It didn’t take long enough for him to show you that he was an a**hole, and you still kept running back. It’s one of those situations where it’s like ‘fool me once shame on you. He fooled you 3, 4, 5, almost 10 times”, Sher told Sianna from across the room”.
Sianna, after time and reflection, now realizes how toxic her relationship with Siadi was. “I have cried more on that show than I ever have in my whole life,” she said.
Sianna continued, “I was in something so toxic that I didn’t even recognize myself”.
Hannah got emotional and started to cry as she related to Sianna because of past relationship with Marciano, and even got fired earlier in the season after trying to defend Sianna against Siadi.
“I really cared about you as a friend. Obviously, I know I overstepped, and I get it. I just saw so much of myself in that situation”, she declared.
Hannah continued “I didn’t want to see what happened, happen”.
Despite this, Hannah agrees Lisa made the right decision and regrets her actions.
“When I went home, I felt horrible about myself”, she said.
Stassi asked Marciano’s opinion on the situation as he didn’t take his and Hannah’s double firing well at that moment.
“It was really upsetting that you just spun, and you did not give a flying f** about us”, Mariano told Lisa.
He’s changed his view after some time and reflection.
Marciano told Lisa, “Lisa I think you did me a favor”, and expressed his relief that he didn’t have to spend any more time with Siadi.
Ashley had views on Siadi’s absence and was not afraid to share them at the reunion.
“I think it’s a coward move that he’s not here. He’s probably not out of the country. He’s probably in Santa Monica somewhere eating a hot dog”, Ashley said.
Towards the end of the reunion, Stassi had her chance to be in the hot seat. Lisa wasn’t going to let Stassi off the hook that easily, and confronted her about her jealousy over Beau’s tattoo of his sister’s name when he didn’t have one of her.
“Even though my brain knows that’s irrational, I can’t help when those feelings come out”, Stassi explains.
Lisa responds, “You can actually. It’s called self-control, Stassi”.
Stassi jokes, “What’s that?”.
Before the cast went their separate ways, Lisa discussed who she may consider bringing back for a potential third season of Vanderpump Villa. Anthony expressed his support for Hannah, saying he doesn’t think she’s the same girl she was in season one.
Gabriella, who has already been offered a spot in the third season, should it happen, had similar sentiments, expressing her appreciation for Hannah’s hard work.
“Listen, I need her on the floor. She knows what’s happening, she knows the operations”, Gabriella explained.
Meanwhile, the entire cast was in agreement that Marciano didn’t deserve to come back.
“Marciano, I think you’ve done your time, and as for my girl Hannah, I want her to come back. I don’t want you anywhere near her”, Hagen told Marciano.
Even Marciano agreed with the cast. “I’m going to say Hannah, and I mean it. She genuinely deserves a second chance, and I do hope she gets a second chance. Even if it is without me”, he said.
The reunion ended with Lisa paying a final tribute to the cast.
“Cheers to an amazing summer season and thank you all for helping bring my vision to life”, she said.
Lisa finished, “I can’t say you didn’t take some years off my life while doing it, but I loved it and I love all of you”.
