Vanderpump Rules: Ariana Madix admires Raquel Leviss in bikini and joins Tom Sandoval defending her

Ariana Madix congratulated Raquel Leviss and joined her boyfriend Tom Sandoval in defending her on Wednesday’s episode of Vanderpump Rules on Bravo.

The 37-year-old reality star opened up about Raquel, 28, looking great in a bikini before finding out she was having a secret affair with boyfriend Tom, 39.

‘What’s it like to be the sexiest person on the fucking planet?’ Ariana asked Raquel as the former beauty queen arrived in a black bikini for her pool party.

The pool party at Tom and Ariana’s house was filmed before the so-called ‘Scandoval’ went public and Raquel denied on Wednesday that the affair started after a threesome with her, Tom and Ariana.

Ariana at her pool party also stood up for Raquel, who thought she was treated badly by Lala Kent, Katie Maloney and Kristina Kelly during the trip to Las Vegas and Lake Havasu.

“It’s very hard for me to think about the fact that Raquel is fighting with people and she’s crazy,” said Ariana, 37. “I would think that Katie, Lala and Kristina gave Raquel the bad girl treatment like they have done to other people in the past.”

Ariana tried to get Raquel and Lala Kent, 32, to talk about it at a pool party at her house. Lala told Scheana Shay, 37, that she could not forgive Raquel for calling her a lover and a homewrecker during the trip.

“If you want to be a troll, I’ll treat you like one and don’t be surprised when I do it,” Lala said.

Scheana then told Raquel that Lala called her weak.

“I think Lala is pathetic,” said Raquel. “Obviously, I’m not a weak fucking bitch.”

“I agree,” Scheana said.

“She needs to get her head checked,” Katie said of Raquel.

“That’s unfair,” said Tom Sandoval, 39. “Katie here’s the thing with you if someone doesn’t have your exact perspective, they’re somehow wrong.”

“Tom, I’m leaving because I’m not doing the Tom thing against the girls,” Ariana said.

Raquel approached realizing that they were talking about her.

‘Put something in common,’ said Lala. ‘I know you can do it.’

“Jesus, you can stop,” Sandoval said. ‘I can’t stop seeing what a bloody bully you were to her. Without reason.’

‘No, there was a reason,’ Lala said.

Raquel said that there was a reason and that was that Lala slept with her then boyfriend James Kennedy. Lala said that she had moved away from that.

‘You’ve gotten away from it!’ Sandoval said, pointing a finger at Lala. ‘She has not. She just received the information from her two weeks ago.

James Kennedy, 31, told Raquel that he has always disliked Lala.

‘So take care of that yourself!’ James said. ‘Don’t throw me in the middle and say my name.’

‘You’re a bully,’ Raquel told Lala. ‘You’re fucking pathetic. I don’t need this energy in my life.’

Raquel told Lala that they would never be friends.

“I’m so bored that you said it like six times,” Lala said.

Rachel walked away.

The episode titled Galaxy Gaslighting opened with Raquel and Charli Burnett, 26, crashing Tom Schwartz’s guys’ night out in Los Angeles after ditching Katie Maloney’s trip to Arizona.

‘Guys’ night means nothing!’ James said.

Sandoval said he didn’t know Raquel and Charli were going to show up.

“I just want to have fun,” Raquel told Schwartz. “The whole purpose of this trip was to have fun, and it’s been just the opposite.”

Raquel told him that she told Terry, Katie’s mother, that she had liked the idea of ​​making out with him.

‘What the hell happened?’ Sandoval said.

“I was being young and fun and single, living my life, and these girls literally set me up to make me look like I’m just going after the guys they’re interested in,” Raquel said.

Sandoval looked at Raquel.

“Lala says, ‘Honesty, Raquel, I’m really worried about you right now,'” Raquel said. Honestly, I would never trust you around my man.

Sandoval rolled his eyes.

‘And I said ‘well, it’s a good thing you don’t have one,’ said Raquel.

“It’s good that you stood up for yourself,” Schwartz said.

James texted his girlfriend Ally Lewber and told her that Raquel and Charli showed up. Ally texted her to get her off her.

Back in Lake Havasu, Lala invited Don, whom she met earlier at the bar, to her house.

“You’re going to have really great sex,” Katie said. You should do it tonight.

“I haven’t had sex with anyone since I conceived my son,” Lala said.

“This is going to be a very exciting evening for you,” Katie said.

In a confessional, Lala said that the sex was not good with her ex.

“I haven’t had an orgasm, a real one that I haven’t faked since 2016,” Lala said.

Lala took Don to her room.

“I just had the best sex of my life,” Lala told Katie in the morning. ‘Hung like a motherfucking horse’.

Katie said in a confessional that she was actually glad she invited Raquel on the trip.

“I think it’s good that I invited Raquel on this trip because I now know beyond a doubt that she sucks and she’s not someone I want to be friends with,” Katie said.

James and Ally went to a tarot card reading. The astrologer told him that there was a negative relationship that he was trying to let go of in life. James said that she was Raquel.

“Everybody wants to point fingers at me, let’s point fingers at her for a second,” James said.

Lisa Vanderpump met Schwartz and Sandoval at Pump. She wanted to know if they decided to get their Tom Tom investment back.

“We’re going to find a way to get the money,” Schwartz said. ‘I’m selling my house which should keep us afloat until we open the doors.’

Schwartz said they needed another $50,000 to open.

The next day, Sandoval made Ariana Madix her latte without foam at her house.

“I love my lattes,” Ariana said.

‘I know,’ Sandoval said and kissed her. They love you too.

Scheana was upset after learning that her wedding resort was sold out and one of her bridesmaids would have to stay elsewhere. Brock told Scheana to ask Katie if she would leave her room.

“There has to be something I can do,” Scheana said in a confessional. ‘Maybe I’ll call the resort myself and pull out the angry girlfriend card. Maybe call someone at TSA and put her on the no fly list. I feel like we have options.

Katie and Arianna said they were matching the offer for space in their sandwich shop. Lisa asked them if they were going to the wedding, Katie said that she wasn’t planning on going to Scheana’s wedding but she had spent $1,000 on her hotel room.

“Last time I checked, Mexico is a really big place,” Katie said.

Katie said she was bringing Kristina Kelly because it was her birthday that week. Ariana said there might be a problem with that because Scheana’s bridesmaid couldn’t get a room at the hotel.

“Sucks that Scheana’s bridesmaid didn’t reserve her room when Scheana was bullying all of us into it, but those aren’t my problems,” Katie said.

At the pool party, Scheana asked Katie to give up her hotel room in Mexico.

“You don’t want to be in Mexico to support Brock and me,” Scheana said. I don’t want your energy there. ‘I don’t want this negative energy on a very special day of my life’.

Katie said it was a great resort. Scheana said that she would Venmo the room money, but Katie declined.

Scheana ran out and told Schwartz that Katie was ‘lame’.

“I have an idea, I’ll tell her I’ll get back together with her if she stays at the other resort,” Schwartz said.

‘Don’t sell your soul,’ said Raquel.

Schwartz tried to talk Katie out about staying somewhere else.

“You are wrong here,” Schwartz said.

Katie got up upset that Schwartz was taking Scheana’s side over hers and left.

Vanderpump Rules will return next Wednesday on Bravo.
