Lisa Vanderpump has put 'Vanderpump Rules' on hold following the death of her mother, Jean Vanderpump. Lisa is mourning the loss of her mother who passed away this week at 84 years old, Page Six reported.

According to the publication, an insider said the reality star is planning on making a trip to London in lieu of funeral arrangements. The insider was quoted as saying: “There was some embolism that went to her brain. She collapsed and that’s what happened.”

58-year-old Lisa was heartbroken and stepped away from the filming of the show. "This has hit Lisa very hard and she is shocked by her mother’s sudden death," a source close to the reality star told the Daily Mail. "Lisa has not had an easy past 14 months. In April of 2018 her brother Mark committed suicide rocking her family to its core."

 She is “very shocked because her grandmother lived to almost 100. She was expecting the same for her mother — a really long and healthy life,” Page Six's source said.

'Vanderpump Rules' is a spinoff of the 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,' both of which air on Bravo. Following the death of Lisa's brother Mark Vanderpump in April last year, she "had to deal with a tumultuous season on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills which ultimately led to her stopping filming and eventually quitting the show as she was tired of being bullied by the other cast members," Daily Mail's source added.

59-year-old Mark died at his home in England of a suspected overdose.
