A lot of the drama on the primary season of Vanderpump Guidelines stemmed from Scheana’s affair with Eddie Cibrian, who was nonetheless married to Brandi Glanville on the time.
And Scheana says Lisa recruited her for the present for precisely that motive.

Scheana says she was manipulated by older, extra highly effective figures
To today, Scheana says she had no thought Eddie was married on the time of her affair.
So the gaslighting and manipulation seem to have begun with Cibrian and continued with Vanderpump.
“I’m this ‘home-wrecking whore’ every day in the comments. He’s the one who lied. He is the one who cheated. He is the home-wrecker. I don’t want to say I was innocent, but I was lied to by a 33-year-old man when I was 21, fresh out of college,” Scheana defined.
“I feel like people tend to forget that. They see 27-year-old Scheana on Season 1 of Vanderpump Rules, and it’s as if the Eddie situation happened the year before,” she continued, including:
“This happened in 2006. We weren’t on air until 2013. Looking back, were there red flags? Absolutely. I was leading with my heart and not my brain.”

Scheana went on to allege that Lisa’s manipulative ways had been part of on a regular basis life whereas taking pictures Vanderpump Guidelines, and the restaurateur and producer went as far as to orchestrate key scenes.
“On Season 6 of ‘VPR,’ when James Kennedy told Katie Maloney that the outfit she was wearing wasn’t flattering, I got a phone call from Lisa. She didn’t want to fire James, so she needed someone to stand up for him [at a staff meeting],” she informed Us.
“If you go back and watch, I’m getting a death stare from Lisa, like, ‘When are you going to speak up? When are you going to stick to the script?’”
As of late, in fact, Vanderpump is filming with an all-new forged.
Scheana and the remainder of the OGs have been let go — and primarily based on her newest feedback, we’re guessing Ms. Shay is completely tremendous with that,.
