Raquel Leviss Shares Her ‘Regret’ After Rewatching ‘Vanderpump Rules’ Scandoval Season

Season 10 of Vanderpump Rules certainly didn't include the best days of Raquel Leviss' life.

Before launching her new iHeartRadio podcast Rachel Goes Rogue this January, the former Bravo star (who now goes by Rachel) is looking back on the season that documented the drama of Scandoval. 

"I look back at season 10 as a really difficult season to watch back because I'm just cringing at all of the things and all the moments they caught on camera," she said in a brand-new teaser of her podcast. "It's really embarrassing, but I see a girl that is going through pain and doesn't have the right tools to tackle it."

Cameras rolled in Season 10 when it was revealed Leviss was having an affair with her best friend Ariana Madix's boyfriend of 10 years Tom Sandoval. After the experience, Leviss participated in a 90-day stay at a trauma therapy center and declined to return to the show. 

When looking back on the episodes today, Leviss has a new perspective on what she witnessed. 

"She's coping in the way that she feels her needs are being met by someone who's giving her adoration and attention," she explained, "and I really did not prioritize my friendships when I got involved with Tom and I regret that a lot."

Before Season 11 of Vanderpump Rules kicks off Jan. 30, Leviss says she has not heard from any cast members except for Sandoval's birthday message to her on Instagram.

And regardless of what does or doesn't air in future episodes, Leviss is ready to offer a new perspective on her experiences. 

"This is MY story," the podcast's description states. "I'm going to tell you what's true, what's false and the secrets I've been waiting to reveal. Yes, I've made mistakes. But what you think you know isn’t reality. It’s time to see 'REALITY' through a different lens."

Rachel Goes Rogue with Rachel Leviss officially premieres Jan. 8, 2024 wherever you stream podcasts.
