It seems Ariana Madix had Raquel Leviss‘ again… at first!
Wednesday evening introduced us one other new episode of Vanderpump Rules, and within the ep — which, once more, was filmed earlier than Raquel’s affair with Ariana’s then-boyfriend Tom Sandoval got here to mild — Madix unknowingly strikes to defend Raquel from criticism! YEESH!!!

This all kicked off after a ladies’ journey that went awry. In it, Raquel slammed Lala Kent for being a “mistress bimbo.” That remark took place after the 28-year-old Leviss bought emotional about Lala sleeping with Raquel’s ex-fiancé James Kennedy again when the 2 have been an merchandise.
When Lala — in addition to Katie Maloney and Kristina Kelly — got here down on Raquel laborious for worrying in regards to the previous, Ariana took situation. In a confessional, the 37-year-old Madix lamented how the opposite ladies within the group have been giving Raquel the “mean girl treatment.” And to Lala’s face, Ariana added this protection of Leviss:
“I’m not down with ‘mistress’ comment, but I do feel like there is some unresolved s**t about the you and James stuff.”
Lala dismissed that retort, saying everyone had “moved on” from the scenario already. Then, Katie added:
“[Raquel] needs to get her head checked.”
Immediately, Ariana clapped again in opposition to that nasty remark:
“That’s mean.”
And that wasn’t it! Seeing Katie, Kristina, and Lala occurring the warpath, Ariana eliminated herself from the sitch saying she didn’t wish to preserve “doing the ‘Tom-against-the-girls’ thing.”

Raquel rejoined the convo at that time, but it surely got here at a foul time. When she queried the trio about what was occurring, Lala instantly snapped again at Leviss and implied she was dumb:
“Put a thought together … I know you can do it.”
Yikes!!
And then the REALLY attention-grabbing factor occurred! With Madix moved on from the ‘Tom-against-the-girls’ spat, as she put it, Sandoval himself jumped in. Clearly pissed off by Lala’s incessant sniping and selecting at Raquel, the TomTom proprietor hit his proverbial breaking level!
He yelled at Lala:
“Ugh! Jesus! Like, dude, can you stop? I can’t unsee the f**king bully that you were to her. For no reason! For no reason! To literally flex your f**king power!”
Raquel agreed with Tom (LOLz…), and referred to as Lala a “bully” who’s “f**king pathetic.”
Then, Leviss identified that there was a legit historical past there for her to have such discord with Kent:
“There is a reason [for the bullying]. You wanna know why? Because she slept with James while we were together!”
Oh, the irony…
Lala once more tried to say Raquel had already “moved on” from that reminiscence. But Tom continued to face up for his co-star (who, because it seems, he’d been having an affair with) by including:
“You have moved on from it … She has not. She just got this information f**king two weeks ago.”
OH, THE IRONY…
Ariana returned later throughout the disagreement to attempt to play peacemaker as soon as extra. Holding up the opposite finish for Leviss amid the verbal assault, Madix advised Lala, Katie, and Kristina that their rumble with Raquel wanted “to be squared today.”

And but Leviss wasn’t achieved. She picked out Lala for a remaining piece of criticism:
“You’re a bully. You’re f**king pathetic. I don’t need this energy in my life. I learned this lesson with James, and I’m finally learning my lesson with you, and if you guys [Katie and Kristina] are gonna be little Chihuahua followers, literally I’m done. We will never be friends. We will never see eye-to-eye.”
Ocean Kent Emmett‘s momma wasn’t even making an attempt to listen to Leviss ship that stand, although. While wanting visibly aggravated, Lala impatiently responded:
“Alright, that’s fine. You’ve told me all of this. I’m so bored. Are you done? Are you finished? I’m so bored. You’ve said it six times. Are you done?”
Ultimately, Raquel ended the spat with a jaw-dropping nearer:
“You give off mistress bimbo vibes, and I cannot stand it.”
OH. THE. IRONY!!!
Then, in a confessional, Raquel capped all of it off with a remark about how she has “leveled up” amid the drama:
“I honestly feel like I’ve leveled up from this girls’ trip, because a lot of my motivation in life has been to be liked by other people. So, the fact that I’m facing Lala Kent? I’m loving this new version of me.”
Even Tom Schwartz bought in on the confessional commentary. When he bought wind that Raquel stood as much as Lala throughout the now-infamous journey, he delivered this attention-grabbing line to cameras:
“Hearing that Raquel stood up to Lala, I don’t know, I’m kinda impressed. She is kinda thriving. Kinda hot.”
Well how about that…
Again, this all went down earlier than Raquel’s romantic run-around with Sandoval was revealed to the world! So figuring out Scandoval is simply across the bend makes a few of these moments — Sandoval’s protection of Leviss, Raquel calling Lala a “mistress bimbo,” Ariana defending Raquel — very, very attention-grabbing certainly!!
Reactions, Perezcious readers??
