While Lala hasn’t seen the video and doesn’t “have it,” she confirmed Raquel and Sandoval had been pleasuring themselves within the clip and famous that Ariana has mentioned she doesn’t “wanna know anything” extra concerning the affair.
According to Lala, who thinks Tom Schwartz “for sure knew” what was going on between Sandoval and Raquel earlier than the remainder of us, he wasn’t the one one who was onto the couple.
“I knew. You’ll see this season, during regular filming, before cameras went back up, I was saying, from experience, ‘These two have crossed a line. They’re f-cking each other.’ [But] I didn’t have any proof,” she defined.
And as a result of she didn’t have any proof, and hasn’t been “super close” to Ariana “for a while,” Lala as an alternative went to Scheana Shay with the data.
“Scheana did ask Ariana and Raquel and I believe Sandoval and they all said nothing’s going on,” Lala recalled. “[But] when you’re in it, you don’t see it. They’ve all been beating themselves up and I’m like, ‘I get why you didn’t see the red flags. That’s how I was with [Randall Emmett].’”
On one explicit event, Lala mentioned Raquel and Sandoval had been caught “under covers together.”
“They’re like, ‘Oh, this is weird but they’re just best friends.’ … This was at some party or something,” she revealed.
Then, after evaluating Raquel to “SpongeBob Squarepants with like a pretty face,” Lala mentioned that if Raquel weren’t a buddy of Ariana’s, she’d suppose she’d been “groomed” by Sandoval.
Also on Jeff Lewis Live, Lala mentioned she was “still recovering” from the Pump Rules reunion.
“My mind is fried,” she mentioned. “I completely blacked out, I was like, enraged. Because even though this didn’t directly affect me, I don’t want to say it didn’t directly affect me, because it did trigger me. It reminded me of the way Randall slithered around, so I feel for my friend. But at the same time, it was all of these times that they projected onto me all season that I was like, how in the world can you sleep at night?”
Looking again, Lala mentioned that simply previous to the reveal of Raquel and Sandoval’s affair, Sandoval mentioned she must “be real.”
“I think that was the problem, is I was a little too real for your liking,” Lala responded.
And she could have additionally been a bit “too real” on the reunion, after which she informed a producer, “I feel like I went a little too crazy.”
“And they said,” she continued, “‘I think we’ll be able to pull you back a bit when we edit this down.”
While Raquel and Sandoval’s romance has absolutely been heart-wrenching for Ariana, Lala believes she’s realizing this was the universe’s manner of getting her out of one thing “she wasn’t happy in.”
“I know she was down and out because when you go home and you hate the person you’re with, you think you love them because you’ve been together for so long but you really can’t stand them and Sandoval seems like f-cking torture,” she acknowledged.
As for Raquel’s tell-all with TMZ, throughout which she claimed she and Sandoval had been “taking a break” and admitted Ariana didn’t react effectively to her apology, Lala mentioned Raquel “set that TMZ interview up.”
“That’s the same nail salon that Scheana’s best friend works at and Ariana goes to. My crew … They were like, ‘There’s not even a chair out there. No one has ever waited outside. And her nail appointment was done,’” Lala shared. “Everyone was like, ‘No, she would’ve never set this up looking like that.’ And I’m like, ‘Hello? That was the PR plan. Don’t get ready, make it look [unexpected].’”
Also in the course of the interview, Lala famous that whereas Raquel mentioned she was genuinely enthusiastic about Schwartz, and never utilizing him as a decoy, she mentioned this “as [she was] screwing his best friend.”
