The Valley’s Brittany Cartwright and BFF Kristen Doute just reunited with their former Vanderpump Rules castmate Ariana Madix for a festive and fun holiday event.
“Love me a good Christmas party,” Brittany captioned a Dec. 15 Instagram post showing the three Bravolebs glammed up for the joyous occasion.
At the Los Angeles-based event, all three matched in festive red, with The Valley gals donning formal dresses and Ariana chic in a button-up blazer dress.
Some couldn’t get enough of the band getting back together at the Bravoleb-studded celebration, not the least of which included Summer House’s Lindsay Hubbard, who called the girls “stunning,” and The Valley: Persian Style’s Reza Farahan, who commented with a couple of flame emojis. What’s more, Brittany even got a smile from Billy Nye (The Science Guy).
Later, Kristen shared on her Instagram Stories a snap from the holiday spectacular, with Kristen and Brittany buddied up with The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City’s Whitney Rose and her husband, Justin Rose. “The best,” Kristen wrote with a handful of red heart emojis, “and I wasn’t even pregnant this year!”
