Not all of the Vanderpump Rules stars embrace Ariana Madix as she makes her “iconic” hosting debut on Love Island.

VANDERPUMP Rules’ Ariana Madix has made her hosting debut on Love Island.

Several VPR stars shared their support for their co-star’s big career move – while others remained noticeably silent.

On Tuesday, Ariana, 38, shared a post showcasing her premiere episode outfit on Instagram while promoting the release of Love Island Season 6.

The Bravo star captioned the post, “To follow in the slo-mo footsteps of such iconic women to host my favorite show is beyond an honor.

“Thank you for welcoming me to the love island family! @loveislandusa season 6 premieres NOW on @peacock!!”

Ariana looked like a “golden goddess” for her debut as she donned a form-fitting gold dress that complemented her warm blond hair.

The Di Petsa dress featured a plunging neckline that showed off the reality TV star’s cleavage and cut-outs that flaunted her defined abs and long legs.

She went full-glam with her makeup for the premiere while accentuating the look with gold and silver rings and bracelets by Simon G Jewelry.

In the post’s comment section, Ariana’s VPR co-stars praised the actor’s career accomplishment.

Katie Maloney, 37, wrote in all caps, “I’m not well!!!” followed by a pair of heart-eyes and fire emojis.

Charli Burnett, 27, commented, “Holy s**ttt,” with a trio of fire emojis.

“Here we gooooo!!” remarked an excited James Kennedy, 32.

“I wanna be on you. I mean, hi gorgeous,” joked Kristen Doute, 41.

Scheana Shay, 39, commented, “A Golden Goddess!”

Dayna Kathan, 33, wrote, “Sorry there was a lag between my like and comment. I passed out. MY GOD [fire emojis].”

One VPR star noticeably missing from the comment section was Ariana’s former friend Lala Kent, 33.

LALA DRAMA

During the reunion episode, The Something About Her co-founder went head-to-head with Lala on the stage.

The mom of two raged at Ariana over her behavior during the Season 11 finale – in which Ariana walked away from a conversation with Tom during the episode.

Ariana’s refusal to talk to Tom stemmed from the Scandoval cheating scandal but Lala seemed to think Ariana owed her former flame a conversation.

“She now thinks she is Beyoncé. It’s bulls**t that she can’t film with someone because she stays under the same roof. It’s a lot… I never in my life experienced someone who gets cheated on and suddenly she becomes God,” Lala complained to co-star and close friend Scheana, 39, during the final episode.

The Bravo reality star brought up the incident at the reunion as tears of rage welled up in her eyes and Ariana quietly sobbed.

“I was livid that night. Livid. And I’m sorry if I hurt you, but I stand by what I said. And I probably didn’t say it the most eloquently, but this was days and days of me – Scheana saw me – I was sobbing on a regular basis. I love f**king filming with you guys, even when you f**k up and I want to torch you all,” Lala said.

Lisa Vanderpump, 63, then chimed in, asking, “So you’re saying you felt let down by everybody because the true story that you were getting wasn’t the true story they were filming?”

“It was difficult, because I understood where Ariana was coming from. But I was like, ‘Why does she get to dictate how this goes down when I’ve never gotten to dictate?'” Lala replied.

Host Andy Cohen, 55, then jumped in, asking Ariana, “What is your response to this?”

“Umm…I don’t think I’m Beyonce, I don’t think I’m God,” Ariana said through tears.

She went on, “Talking about sobbing on a regular basis, yeah I don’t do it in front of Scheana. I do it on my own.

“And, arguably, if you wanna talk in ‘show terms,’ me walking away from that conversation was a lot more interesting than me sitting there and having it. Was that not a better ending to your season, to give you another season for another paycheck?”

LOVE ISLAND

Ariana replaced Season 4 and 5 host Sarah Hyland, who took over the role from Season 1 through 3 host Arielle Vandenberg.

In March, she announced her big news between her live shows on Instagram.

Ariana was performing as Roxie Hart in Chicago on Broadway at the time.

The TV personality filmed herself from a theater with heavy makeup and her hair slicked back into an updo.

“Talk about a bombshell,” Ariana told the camera.

“This summer I am trading rhinestone buckles for bikinis. I’m hosting the next season of Love Island USA streaming this summer on Peacock.

“I can’t wait to stir up some trouble in paradise,” she concluded with a smile.

While many of Ariana’s Vanderpump Rules co-stars praised the new Love Island host, Lala Kent remained silent

During the reunion episode, Lala raged at Ariana over her behavior during the Season 11 finale

Lala accused Ariana of thinking she was ‘God’ or ‘Beyonce’ and dictating how the finale episode would end
