Tom Sandoval’s mom ‘knew about’ affair, met Raquel Leviss in January: report

Reality TV

Turns out Tom Sandoval’s mother knew all about her son’s affair with Raquel Leviss, according to a report.

The “Vanderpump Rules” star brought his co-star and lover to his hometown of St. Louis in Missouri in January — just weeks after her initial visit, TMZ reports.

The Bravolebrity’s first encounter with Sandoval’s mother, Terri Green, took place when the bar she and Sandoval were at was forced to shut its doors due to a storm warning, a source told the outlet.

With nowhere to go, the pair sought shelter at Terri’s house, which was located nearby, the outlet adds.

This was Leviss’ first time meeting her lover’s mom.

The star’s mother had initially declined the opportunity to meet Leviss the previous month when his family said they had “no interest” in meeting her, the outlet previously reported.

The outlet adds that Terri knew all about the affair, and “wasn’t cool with their situation,” however she was “cordial” when meeting Leviss.

Sandoval didn’t introduce Leviss as his girlfriend, the outlet adds.

The pair slept over at Terri’s house that night, and Sandoval shared a room with Leviss, TMZ notes.

Page Six has reached out to reps for Leviss and Sandoval for comment.

In December, Sandoval brought Leviss to meet his pals after reportedly telling them that he tried to split from Madix before the trip.

His friends thought it was “inappropriate” for him to parade his new love interest around, TMZ reported.

The outlet also adds that the pair posed for a loved-up snap together in front of the Apotheosis of St. Louis statue in his hometown.

Sandoval’s ex Ariana Madix was faced with horror heartbreak last month while out cheering him on at his cover band’s gig in West Hollywood. 

She discovered a sexually explicit video of Leviss, 28, on Sandoval’s phone, prompting her to dump him after nearly a decade together.

The secret tryst kickstarted in July 2022, but it wasn’t until early March that the world learned about it.

Madix and Sandoval had been dating for almost 10 years and even owned a home and a dog together — which she will reportedly be keeping.

As news of the full-blown affair came to light, both Sandoval and Leviss issued social media statements, respectively.
