Rachel “Raquel” Leviss is still speaking out about her time on Vanderpump Rules and she says that Ariana Madix’s treatement of her increased the hate from fans.
Rachel admitted to having an affair with Ariana’s longtime boyfriend, Tom Sandoval, and Ariana, as well as the viewers and the rest of the cast, were angry at Rachel because she was supposedly a close friend of Ariana’s at the time.
“I think the part that irks me the most is the way that [Ariana] went out of her way to dehumanize me at the reunion,” she said on her Rachel Goes Rogue podcast. “It really propelled more hate my way and death threats and things that were not necessary, because I already had a lot of shame surrounding it and a lot of people shaming me already … It’s very telling to her character.”
Rachel walked away from the show and has since sued Ariana and Tom for revenge p-rn.
She did praise Ariana’s stint as the host of Love Island USA and said she watched the show obsessively.
