Why is 'Vanderpump Rules' not airing this week?

'Vanderpump Rules' has gone on a one-week break. Taking a breather for the holidays, the show will return the following week.

What went down in Episode 11 of 'Vanderpump Rules'?

Episode 11 of the show saw the continued conflict between Katie Maloney-Schwartz and Tom Sandoval get intense at TomTom Bar. Things got loud with the duo yelling at each other. Tom tried to highlight all his hard work saying it even bought her home with Katie asking him not to take credit for Schwartz's work. Sandoval said it all love for Schwartz but Katie called him patronizing, creepy, and egocentric. Schwartz pulled aside his wife but as usual, the man was no help and seems to disagree with his wife, which later saw her go to Lisa Vanderpump for advice.

We also see Sandoval planning a secret party for his girlfriend Ariana Madix's birthday while Brock Davies asks Scheana Shay to stick up for herself with Charli Burnett. Apart from those we also saw Lala Kent hire an assistant to help with her business. Meanwhile, Schwartz and Sandoval talk again and come to an understanding of sorts when he asks Sandoval to respect his wife (Katie believed he should do this). But things are still awkward between the solid couple.
