Former “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Lisa Vanderpump is currently on a high as she has two new shows in the works. However, in the meantime, the businesswoman and reality TV personality has a lawsuit on her hands from a former handyman who claims he was injured at her home in 2023.

This news comes as “Vanderpump Rules” was left out of NBCUniversal’s recent upfront renewals after failing to match its pre-reboot viewership.

Lisa Vanderpump Is Facing A 6-Figure Lawsuit

TMZ obtained court documents in May 2026 that show a lawsuit filed by Eric Nieto in November of last year. The legal filing stemmed from an incident Nieto claims happened on November 25, 2023, at Vanderpump and husband Ken Todd‘s $14 million mansion.

The handyman states that the couple hired him to make repairs to the home. Per the documents, he was required to use what is described as an exterior stairway leading to the basement. Unfortunately, Nieto allegedly fell after his foot became stuck on stair tread. He stated that this happened due to the condition of the stairs.

The Handy Man Revealed His Injuries

Nieto claims that following the fall at Vanderpump’s home, he suffered various injuries. They include a severe one on his lower left leg as well as his ankle. The handyman said in court documents that he has experienced pain and suffering and that he will need continued medical attention.

He is requesting $150,000 for the alleged pain and suffering, as well as $45,000 for his medical expenses. So far, neither Vanderpump nor Todd has responded to the lawsuit. However, per the report, the couple has been in touch with their homeowner’s association about it.

Lisa’s Fans Are Reacting To The Lawsuit

Following the news of Vanderpump being sued over an alleged incident at her home, fans of the Bravo personality are weighing in. Of course, many are noting that felling “RHOBH” star Kathy Hilton is also being sued by someone who claims to have been injured at her home.

One person said on X, “If the man was actually hurt at their home, Lisa and Ken should pay up. He’s not asking for much in comparison to what they have. However, the long time before filing the lawsuit is suspicious to me.”

Someone else said, “She’ll settle, and we won’t hear anything else about it.” After that, someone else mentioned Hilton, saying, “It must be a Beverly Hills curse. First Kathy and now Lisa. Stop having people at your homes.”

Later, a different social media user doubted the accuser, saying, “Anything to leech rich people’s money.”

This Isn’t The First Time Vanderpump Has Been Sued

Vanderpump, like many business owners, has been sued multiple times. According to US Weekly, one of the most recent came in January 2024 when two former bartenders at their Tom-Tom restaurant, Dax Hill and Peter Hodge, sued them for wrongful termination. They also claimed that Vanderpump and Todd blacklisted them.

The former employees stated that the Tom Tom owners “[published] false statements and comments to numerous third parties” pertaining to their “profession, reputation, and character. ” Additionally, they alleged “unsafe work conditions.” The two reported “sewage and backup” in the employee breakroom as an example.

Some of their other claims include being paid late and having their shifts reduced after voicing concerns about the workplace environment. Per the documents, “During this period, [the former bartenders] experienced rampant violations of California labor laws, harassment and unsafe working conditions.”

The suit was settled in September 2025.

‘Vanderpump Rules’ Isn’t Canceled

NBCUniversal hosted its annual upfronts in May 2026, which included several renewals and announcements of new shows. As mentioned, “Vanderpump Rules” was notably absent, despite previous reports that the show had been renewed for season 13.

Following the omission, TMZ reported that Bravo and NBCUniversal have not canceled the long-running reality show. Instead, it’s simply going on a pause. The outlet cited Vanderpump’s filming other projects outside Los Angeles, where “VPR” is filmed, as the reason.

Currently, she’s spending time in Las Vegas as she prepares to open her new hotel, which will be the subject of one of her upcoming shows, “Vanderpump Rules: Lisa Las Vegas. After that, she will begin filming season four of Hulu’s “Vanderpump Villa.”
