Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix and her boyfriend of nearly 10 years, Tom Sandoval, split after she discovered his infidelity with castmate Raquel Leviss, as reported by TMZ. According to People magazineMadix’s close friend, Scheana Shay, was privy to Leviss’ stake in the Schwartz & Sandy co-owner the day before the news was published on March 3. The publication reported that the castmates “allegedly got into a physical altercation” with Leviss over the “Good As Gold” singer’s accusation of “punch.”[ing] in her face.”

Speaking to People magazine in March 2023, Shay’s attorney, Neama Rahmani, who has claimed Leviss’ claims are untrue, noted that the former pageant queen had a “preliminary restraining order” that “currently prohibits Scheana from being within from 100 meters Rachel stops [Raquel]’, meaning they ‘have to film [the reunion] separately or virtually.” He clarified that “any of them could zoom in and appear virtually.” However, his client would be unable to “communicate with Rachel, either directly or through an intermediary.” Despite these potential issues, Leviss’ castmate Katie Maloney has shared that she believes the 28-year-old will be present at the upcoming reunion.

During the March 15 episode of Lala Kent’s podcast, Give Them Lala Maloney explained that attending the reunion “is by contract.”

“I don’t think you’ll be done if you miss it, but it doesn’t bode well,” said the 36-year-old.

Maloney then referenced that she appeared virtually for the season 9 reunion special after testing positive for COVID-19.

“I sat there and shook. My body hurt like I had a blanket on my lap,” recalls the aspiring restaurateur.

Lala Kent shared that she believes Raquel Leviss isn’t authentic about reunions

During taping of the March 15 episode of “Give Them Lala,” Kent shared that she doesn’t believe Leviss, who joined the cast in 2017, is authentic during the “Vanderpump Rules” reunions.

“I notice in scenes and even at reunions, Raquel, literally, I think she likes to write down what she’s going to say and you can tell because it never makes sense because she doesn’t think about what the rebuttal might be.” , said the “4 U” singer.

Maloney chimed in that she doesn’t like it when her castmates don’t have genuine reactions. She explained that she believes some of her co-stars will be “ready for their comebacks,” which she finds “inauthentic.”

“I’ve experienced it before, I know what’s coming, so I’d rather respond to what’s being said and any questions that come my way and not be in my head and not too good at things be prepared,” Maloney said.
