Lisa and Ken hugged and shared a kiss on the cheek as the couple prepares to reopen Pump since having financial issues during the pandemic.

The Vanderpump Rules pair and business partners had to close Pump, just one of their restaurants, due to a “tax dispute.”

Lisa and Ken needed to file past-due tax returns and pay the tax balances. 

They are also accused of owing $100k in outstanding fruit and vegetable bills.



A rep for Lisa confirmed to The Celeb Report that the establishment will reopen on Wednesday, March 17

Last week, Lisa appeared on The Talk and opened up about her business issues admitting: ‘It’s been pretty dark and life’s been pretty stressful…’

“I have to say, even now trying to get the businesses back together is going to be a challenge.”

In order for Pump to get back in good standing with the state, the restaurant would need to file any allegedly past due tax returns and pay any alleged past-due tax balances, according to the state’s website.



Lisa and Ken own dozens of companies together and several restaurants in West Hollywood

It’s not yet known why the California Franchise Tax Board suspended Pump or how much money the company allegedly owes

Lisa and Ken opened the eatery in May 2014.

The pair own dozens of companies together and several restaurants in West Hollywood, including Pump, Tom Tom, Sur, and Villa Blanca, which shut its doors permanently last year. 

Pump’s tax problems come after a lawsuit filed in February from one of the business’ vendors.

A rep for Lisa, 60, confirmed to The Celeb Report that the establishment will reopen on Wednesday, March 17. 

A team of workers are currently working on both the interior and exterior of the building to get it back ready in tip-top shape to open. 

Painters, welders, movers and more staffers were seen preparing the upscale eatery on Thursday. 

However, Pump is still listed as “suspended” from the California Franchise Tax Board.
