Alexandra WymanHave no fear, Real Housewives fans, Lisa Vanderpump (and Giggy!) will be back.
Despite rampant speculation that she would not return after a rough season and some frustrating legal troubles, Lisa recently took to her Twitter account to announce that she will be returning for season five of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills when it premieres this fall.
"Well ok...Five has always been my lucky number,so we will see," she tweeted. "#rhobh Let the games begin."
Vanderpump also has her own spinoff, Vanderpump Rules, focusing on her West Hollywood restaurant Sur, that was recently picked up for a third season.

Let the games begin.

Vanderpump expressed some disinterest in returning to the show.
In January, a waitress at Vanderpump's restaurant, Villa Blanca, filed harassment charges against Villa Blanca and one of its managers. Just recently, the waitress was awarded $100,000 in damages, and Vanderpump expressed her disappointment through Twitter.
Hard to comprehend how my manager is totally innocent but vb gets damages against them for something that didn't happen.
Losing faith.

The fifth season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is set to air sometime this fall.
