Did James Kennedy steal his ex-girlfriend's role on Vanderpump Rules?

Although their breakup has yet to be officially confirmed, Kennedy and Kristen Doute appear to have split, and Kennedy may have taken on her full-time role.

Following Doute's season three firing, she has stayed away from SUR Lounge, where the series is based. In fact, Doute has steered clear of all of Lisa Vanderpump's restaurant, while her former flame, Kennedy, continues to work for the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star.

In addition to Kennedy's employment with Vanderpump, he's also grown closer to the rest of the cast, while Doute has become more distant. But could that mean he's taken her spot? There's certainly plenty of evidence to support the theory.

Currently, Kennedy is in Hawaii with the likes of Jax Taylor, Scheana Marie Shay, Mike Shay, Tom Sandoval, Ariana Madix, Tom Schwart, Katie Maloney and Peter Madrigal -- everyone except for Doute, who remains in Los Angeles.

Doute also appears to be estranged from all of the single members of the Vanderpump Rules cast.

While she was once close with Katie Maloney and Stassi Schroeder, Schroeder is no longer on the show, and Maloney has grown close to Scheana Marie Shay and Madix. In the photo below, Maloney is seen showing off her engagement ring with Shay, who calls her a "BFF."
