Raquel Leviss laughs at affair going ‘so horribly wrong’ in ‘Pump Rules’ preview

Reality TV

Raquel Leviss can’t help but giggle over her sordid affair with Tom Sandoval in a preview for the upcoming “Vanderpump Rules” Season 10 finale. 

“It turned out so horribly wrong,” the former pageant queen, 28, says with a laugh while discussing the situation with 40-year-old Sandoval. 

It’s the only glimpse of Leviss in the sneak peek, while Sandoval is heavily featured. 

“I was going to break up with Ariana regardless,” he tells co-star Scheana Shay at the start of the clip. 

“But you didn’t,” the “Good as Gold” singer, 37, claps back. “You f—ked her best friend instead.”

Sandoval also attempts to justify his secret romance with Leviss by telling his BFF and business partner, Tom Schwartz, “I felt something I haven’t felt in a very long time.”

And in a separate conversation with his aggrieved ex-girlfriend, Ariana Madix, Sandoval admits that he and Leviss “became, like, really good friends.”

But Madix, 37 — who dumped Sandoval in March after discovering his infidelity — wasn’t having it. 

“I don’t give a f—k about fucking Raquel!” she exclaims in apparent frustration. “Your friendship is f—king bulls—t!”

Sandoval then defends his connection with Leviss. “No, it’s not!” he shouts back, to which Madix yells even louder, “Yes, it is!”

The “Buying Back My Daughter” actress then adds, “I regret ever loving you.”

Elsewhere, Lala Kent implies that Sandoval has been “creeping around” long before his dalliance with Leviss. 

“There was one other time,” the cover band singer confesses at one point, copping to even more unfaithful behavior. 

Though she doesn’t appear on camera again, Leviss’ voice is heard during a phone call with ex-fiancé James Kennedy — during which she promises the DJ, 31, that she and Sandoval are not “an item” despite the optics. 

Later, Lisa Vanderpump consoles an emotional Madix in a time of distress. “You don’t deserve any of this,” the restaurateur says.

By the end of the preview, “VPR” alum Kristen Doute is seen making her highly anticipated return. “You ready?” she asks Madix, while mischievously twiddling her fingers. 

The finale clip comes just hours after Leviss claimed her Instagram was “hacked,” followed by an announcement that she’d be dedicating her page to mental health awareness for the time being. 

“Raquel has requested all of the posts focus on raising awareness for mental health organizations, advocates and removing the stigma surrounding treatment,” Leviss’ team wrote in part. 

Leviss checked into a mental health facility in Arizona last month in the wake of her and Sandoval’s months-long affair coming to light.

Madix broke up with Sandoval after nearly 10 years together when she found a sexually explicit video of Leviss on his phone the night of March 1. 

Sources later told Page Six that the pair had been “communicating inappropriately” since July 2022.

While the status of Sandoval and Leviss’ relationship remains in flux, Madix has seemingly moved on with a new man named Daniel Wai. 

This month, the blond beauty was spotted kissing the hunky fitness trainer at Coachella and again at Los Angeles’ LAX airport. 

Madix continued living her best life this weekend in Washington, D.C., attending the White House Correspondents’ Dinner with Kent, 32, and Vanderpump, 62. 

“Vanderpump Rules” airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
