While the Vanderpump Rules cast celebrates Jax Taylor and Tom Sandoval's birthdays in Hawaii, Kristen Doute is back in Los Angeles, spending time with friends.

Is The 'Vanderpump Rules' Cast Getting Along During Filming On Season 4?

Although Doute will be a part of the upcoming fourth season of the Bravo reality show, she may have been reduced to a part-time role in light of her season three firing from SUR Lounge, where the series is based.

Did Kristen Doute Confirm Her Split From 'Vanderpump Rules' Co-Star James Kennedy?

Although Doute's role on the show remains unclear, she will definitely be back, and earlier this week, the T-shirt designer teased of the drama that is to come, telling fans on Instagram, "#PumpRules is officially renewed ! When you thought nothing could top last season... Just wait @bravotv."

Weeks prior, Doute claimed she went into Vanderpump Rules' fourth season with a new outlook on life.

"I've grown and changed so much as a person. It's very different now," she revealed to SiriusXM Out Q host Larry Flick. "I've definitely grown a lot and done a lot of work on myself and my relationships. That doesn't mean that I go from Camille Grammer first season of Housewives to Camille Grammer second season of Housewives. I'll never be that quiet meek person. It's not in my blood."

Vanderpump Rules season four is expected to return to Bravo later this year.
