Reality’s Queen Bee: 22 Reasons Why Lisa Vanderpump Rules The Housewives

One look at Lisa and it’s hard to believe that the purse-and-shoe matching, false-lash-wearing, Kate Middleton-hair diva can get ready in 10 minutes! Yet, it’s true. Lisa has admitted that it’s easy for her to roll out of bed and look put together. "Some of the girls take a glam squad with them when we go on trips. I don't do that," she says. "I have to be made up and put together every day for the restaurants, so it wouldn't make sense for me."

Her family has lived in London, Monaco, Monte Carlo, Montecito and Beverly Hills. “We are impulsive,” explains Vanderpump. “Ken and I have this relationship where we can do anything or go anywhere together. But I’m more of a ‘gypsy’ than he is.”

She’s super luxe and glamorous, so it might not come as a surprise that Lisa Vanderpump’s $15 million Beverly Hills estate —complete with a pool and swans—is known as ‘"Villa Rosa."

This reality star has wanted to be in front of the camera since she was a kid. She began studying at a drama school at the age of 9. She was in the film A Touch of Class at age 13. And by the time she was 15, she was starring in Baywatch.

Lisa's been on Dancing with the Stars, Top Chef, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and most recently Vanderpump Rules.

Whether some say she’s worth $65 Million or $75 million, she’s still the richest Housewife. The second on the list is Carole Radziwill who is worth $50 million.

Lisa earns $350,000 annually for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and $500,000 annually for Vanderpump Rules.

"They asked me twice to audition, and I said, 'Not for me, thanks.”

Lisa penned a book: simply Divine: A Guide to Easy, Elegant, and Affordable Entertaining.

Lisa married Ken Todd when she was twenty-one and he was 37. The two had known each other for only six weeks. Thirty years later, they’re still going strong.

Sur is only one of the many hot spots between London and Los Angeles that Lisa and Ken own. In LA alone they own Pump, Shadow Lounge, Villa Blanca and Bar Soho. She has proudly stated that she herself has designed all 26 restaurants.

Restaurants and reality shows clearly don't keep Lisa busy enough, so she branched out into other businesses. In 2015, she launched a pet accessories line: Vanderpump Pets and her own wine label called Vanderpump Rosé.

Her human children’s names are Pandora and Max. She and Ken adopted Max when he was 6-years-old. Yet when her children grew up, she adopted four furry friends: Gigolo, Lollipop, Pikachu and Buki whom she pampers as if they were her own children.

When Lisa met Ken, he had had a child named Warren with his previous wife, Pamela.

Late night munchies never include carbs in the Vanderpump household. It’s Lisa’s little secret to staying in shape. Instead, she reaches for proteins and vegetables.

She’s started her own line of rosé to let the world know what she holds dear to her heart. But don’t call her a wino, she once said that she has only one glass each day.

Lisa is truly British and prefers to keep her emotions in check. “I’m not really a crier. I don’t fall apart too often.”

"I don’t even lie about my age. I don’t really lie about anything. My memory is good enough not to lie about something.”

“I always try to be on time. I don’t like things dirty, I love everything perfectly clean. I kind of strive for perfection, so I like my house to be perfect and I hate it when things are all over the place."

“And dogs, I’m so passionate about dogs. I would have a hundred of them. I have four dogs, but I’m going to get another one as well. I’m dog-obsessed.”

“I actually do embrace getting older. So do I fight against it? Of course I do. I have to. Do I have all the little tricks? A little bit of filler, a little bit of Botox, the Retin A, the masks, all those things. Yes I do, absolutely.”

Lisa Vanderpump was born in London in 1960. Although, she’s revealed in an interview that her unusual last name is Dutch.
