Raquel Leviss opened up about her sordid affair with Tom Sandoval within the feedback part of a video wherein she was labeled “mad crazy” for the months-long relationship.
Nearly six months after the Vanderpump Rules alum, 28, was caught in her secret relationship with Sandoval, 40, who was in a nine-year relationship together with her pal and castmate Ariana Madix, 38, on the time, Raquel responded to the clip, which gave a nod to feedback she made on Bethenny Frankel‘s podcast days in the past.
“When Bethenny asked Rachel, ‘How real was Tom and Ariana’s relationship,’ the first thing Rachel says is that she wouldn’t have been involved with Sandoval if she knew there was longevity to Tom and Ariana’s relationship,” famous Jared B, of Bravo Tea With Jared B.
“Now, to me, this is a weird thing to admit because she’s saying she knew this wasn’t a real relationship or a relationship that had legs so that’s why she decided to participate in this affair,” Jared continued. “So at this point, Rachel, you’re looking mad crazy because whether real or not, formally, they were in a relationship, despite the circumstances.”
According to Jared, she ought to’ve let Sandoval know that in the event that they have been going to proceed with their tryst, he was going to have to interrupt up with Ariana as soon as and for all.
“If you wanted to be with Tom Sandoval so bad, you should’ve let him know that this tryst, this situation that was going on between you and him, goes no further until you know officially that they have broken up,” he said.
And after his video was shared, Raquel supplied her response, telling the host that he was “not wrong.”
“You’re not wrong! I should have had more self-respect than that and should have respected the relationship that Ariana had with Tom. No excuses,” she started.
But then she steered she was pacified by Sandoval’s suggestion that he didn’t wish to jeopardize the psychological well being of Ariana, whose canine and grandmother died final 12 months amid their affair.
“However, looking back, I see I had low self-worth and Tom kept telling me he was actively breaking up with her ‘amicably’ for her ‘mental health,’ which I can now see was magical thinking,” she stated. “He had a million and one reasons why they hadn’t broken up yet and it was easier to stay in that fantasy then to face the fact that the social anxiety and isolation was not worth it. So yes, absolutely you’re 100 [percent] right. It was MY responsibility to remove myself from that situation.”
Also in her put up, Raquel, who spent two months getting psychological well being remedy after her affair with Sandoval was uncovered, added, “Now I know better.”
Vanderpump Rules season 11 is at present in manufacturing and anticipated to start airing later this 12 months or in early 2024.
