Raquel Leviss and Tom Sandoval were facing high dating rumors while they were filming the Vanderpump Rules season 10 reunion. In reality, they were having a love affair, but now, after more than three months, they are not on speaking terms.
Recently, in the premiere of Vanderpump Rules Season 11, Sandoval shared that he has no harsh feelings or words for his ex and wishes for the best for her in life. Leviss didn’t only make an exit from Sandoval’s life, but she didn’t come back on the show as well.
“I’m wishing her the best,” Tom Sandoval says about his ex, Raquel Leviss.
While attending the premiere of Vanderpump Rules Season 11 on Wednesday, Sandoval opened up about his thoughts for his ex, about which he only wants what’s best for her, and added, ‘I hope she moves on.’
A year ago, the revelation came about Sandoval and Leviss’ relationship, which says that they had an affair amid his relationship with his longtime girlfriend, Ariana Madrix. After this, there was a media storm and public scrutiny of both Sandoval and Leviss.
The pair had still kept up with their connection while filming the heated Season 10 reunion of the series. They both said to find comfort in each other during this time. Soon after that, it was confirmed by them that they were no longer on speaking terms.
Opening up about their relationship also reflects on the chaos they had to face when the affair went viral, recalling that Sandoval said, “It was probably one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to face on such a regular basis; it was very, very challenging and very, very emotional at times.”
Reflecting on the challenges he had to face, Sandoval shared that he thinks after everything he went through, he just wants people to remember that he is definitely not perfect and added, “But I am a human being. I am not a character, you know, Cubs vs. Cardinals, and I am not the Negan from The Walking Dead.”
The moment had definitely been difficult for Sandoval, and while explaining it, he went on to say, “I myself am putting myself out there along with the rest of the caste, and this just happens to be a s*** time for me because of what I have done.”
Season 11 of Vanderpump Rules will pick up in the aftermath of the ‘Scandal of Sandoval’ along with moving forward with Madrix and trying to rebuild the relationships with his castmates that got affected after the scandal.
On the side of Rachel Leviss, the Vanderpump Rules alum said that she has already left Sandoval in her past life after she went through mental health treatment. As per the sources, after the scandal, she had to go to Meadows Trauma Therapy Centre, where she checked out in July.
She found it a healthier decision for herself to cut off ties with Tom and his influence. Following the scandal, Rachel had to spent months doing nothing but accusing herself accountable for all her actions. Her decision of ending things with Tom completely came in addition to multiple apologies.
After Leviss had cut off her ties with Sandoval and kept no talking terms alive between them, Sandoval, along with her nine-year-old girlfriend, Adriana Madrix, returned to film season 11 of VPR. Sandoval was seen in the upcoming season of Special Forces: The World’s Toughest Test, and Madrix appeared to compete in season 32 of Dancing with the Stars.
Sandoval still tried to connect with Rachel after she didn’t keep a connection with him, as he wished him on her birthday, but surely the trauma had hit hard on Rachel. A source said that she had blocked him on Instagram after he wished him a happy birthday.
