“Lala has just treated me a certain way over all of these years, and it’s hard for me to let go of that,” Raquel, 28, solely informed Us Weekly on Wednesday, March 1. “Plus, throughout this season, you’ll kind of see some more things of the way that she treated me.

Season 10 of Vanderpump Rules solely kicked off final month, however the Give Them Lala creator, 32, and Raquel have already clashed. During the February 22 episode, the Utah native warned the previous pageant queen to not hook up with Katie Maloney‘s ex-husband, Tom Schwartz, until she wished to depart “bodies” on the ground.
During a dinner with Lala and the “You’re Gonna Love Me” podcast host, 36, Raquel admitted that she appreciated Tom, 40, however wasn’t keen on relationship him.
“I’m like, ‘Haha, no, no, never,’” the California native mentioned when requested how she responded to Scheana Shay suggesting that she and the TomTom co-owner strike up a romance. “And then I think about it more. I do like Schwartz a lot. I don’t know, like, I wouldn’t ever date him seriously though.”
At that time, the “Give Them Lala” podcast host stepped in to warn off Raquel. “Hold up, hold up, hold up. This is when I will step in and f–king defend my friend at all costs,” Lala mentioned. “If we want bodies laying everywhere, it’s gonna be you hooking up with Schwartz. I get messy, but I wouldn’t even do that s–t.”
Raquel and Tom in the end did hook up on the August 2022 wedding ceremony of Scheana, 37, and Brock Davies. “Scheana’s wedding, it was such a romantic atmosphere,” Raquel informed Us of the now-infamous makeout session. “And Schwartz and I have this connection. It’s more of a friendship now, but there definitely is a little bit of chemistry, a little bit of flirtation — and the atmosphere was so romantic that all those things kind of just led to that.”
Since then, nevertheless, she and the Schwartz & Sandy’s cofounder have saved issues strictly platonic. Still, the Sonoma State University graduate thinks Tom is a catch, including that she “definitely considered” pursuing a romantic relationship with him at one level.
“Just because Tom Schwartz is so kind and considerate,” Raquel defined to Us. “And he always puts himself in other people’s shoes. And that’s something I admire a lot about him.”
