The insider toldLife & Style Magazinethat the stars needed their show to continue earning money through brand deals. The cast, including Tom Sandoval, Tom Schwartz, Ariana Madix, Scheana Shay, James Kennedy, Katie Maloney, and Lala Kent, are also allegedly addicted to the fame and attention. All these things point to the fact that they are desperate to get their own spin-offs. The insider shared with Life & Style:

This has been their bread and butter for over a decade. Sure, they all have their brand deals and other ways to bring in money right now, but without the show to keep them relevant, there’s only so long that they’ll be able to keep charging the rates they do. They’re all addicted to the fame and attention. The thought of fading into obscurity is horrifying.

Madix and Maloney are also reportedly looking to make a show about their sandwich shop and Sandoval & Schwartz also hope for the same. The insider noted that Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright probably got a headstart withThe Valleyafter they exited the OG show in 2020.

However, the insider shared that Bravo might not be able to come up with a spin-off for each of these cast members.
