Tom Sandoval Calls Ex Rachel Leviss a 'Coward' as He Reflects on His 'Hardest Season' So Far and 'Long Road Ahead'-ThuThao

"Her sitting here preaching to everybody that she’s moving on but still talking relentlessly about me and everybody is just f---ing ridiculous," Sandoval says of Leviss in a preview of the 'Vanderpump Rules' season 11 reunion

Tom Sandoval is calling out his ex Rachel "Raquel" Leviss for continuing to speak out about Scandoval despite not returning to Vanderpump Rules.

In a preview of the upcoming season 11 reunion, the conversation turns to Leviss’ decision to depart the series and start her own podcast Rachel Goes Rogue.

“All this nonsense on a podcast and her denigrating everyone — it’s absolutely ridiculous,” Lisa Vanderpump says before clarifying that she doesn’t “listen” to the podcast herself.

Sandoval, 41, reveals that he wanted Leviss, 29, to make her own decision about returning to the hit Bravo show, saying, “I always encouraged her to take some time away from everybody, including myself, and come to her decision that way.”

When asked if the group had “any regrets” about their explosive interactions with Leviss during the season 10 reunion, Lala Kent and Ariana Madix stand by their actions.

“As time passes, there’s healing that happens. And I think had she come back, we would have had a very productive conversation,” Kent, 33, explains. “But I stand behind everything that I said at that reunion.”

“I mean, I had the courage to stand up to my perpetrators. I can’t believe I even showed up that day,” Madix, 38, adds.

However, Kent also credits Leviss for showing up to last year’s reunion amid the fallout of Madix learning of her affair with Sandoval.

“Well, I think credit needs to be given to her with that. Because I’m very proud of Ariana for coming and facing something that was very difficult. She had a solid support system physically in the room and outside, right?” Kent shares. “For Tom and Raquel to show up — now that was like, ‘Damn, I consider myself a tough b----, I don’t think I could have. I don’t think I would have.'”

However, Sandoval sees his ex’s actions in a different light, explaining, “Looking back, I think she’s a f---ing coward. Like, I’m sorry to say it.” 

“And I think her sitting here preaching to everybody that she’s moving on but still talking relentlessly about me and everybody is just f---ing ridiculous,” he adds.

The Schwartz & Sandy's co-owner also opened up about his own personal growth journey on the Vanderpump Rules After Show following the season finale on May 7.

“It was definitely the hardest season by far, hardest conversations I’ve had, the guilt I feel, the people around me who got hurt in the process like [Tom] Schwartz and other people, it weighs on me a lot,” he said. “I feel awful about it.” 

He continued: “It is what it is. It happened. I'm glad I showed up. I'm glad I had the conversations that I had, that I faced it. It's still gonna be a long road ahead, but I'm gonna keep showing up and I'm gonna keep having those hard conversations.”
