Raquel Leviss slammed Tom Sandoval for continuing to play the “victim” in interviews 10 months after their affair was exposed.
“I know that he’s really trying to milk the victim role to make himself look better, I think, but in reality it’s making him look worse,” she said on Monday’s episode of her “Rachel Goes Rogue” podcast.
Leviss accused Sandoval of “playing the offensive” after finding out that she was releasing her own podcast to share her side of the story.
The “Vanderpump Rules” alum shared her unfiltered opinion after a clip from Sandoval’s recent appearance on “Two Ts in a Pod” was played.
In the short video, Sandoval claimed he was “fully in love” with Leviss and said it was “heartbreaking” that they no longer have a relationship.
Leviss, 29, admitted that she already listened to the interview “maybe five times,” and it made her “sick” to her stomach.
“I’ve never had this physical reaction before, but I felt like I was gonna be sick ’cause his voice repulsed me, and I’m like, ‘OK this is a good sign,'” she continued.
Leviss confessed that hearing him say he missed her and loved her was a “vindicating” feeling, but she still felt like he was “victim blaming.”
“It seemed like he really did flip on me, and he really threw me under the bus, and he was OK with it, and it seemed like he was doing a lot of victim blaming and not taking accountability and owning it and maybe standing up for me a little bit,” she said.
The former beauty pageant contestant added that if he “really did love me,” then he “would probably not say something like that.”

Leviss launched her podcast after deciding not return to Season 11 of “Vanderpump Rules” amid the backlash she received after Sandoval’s girlfriend of nearly 10 years, Ariana Madix, discovered their affair in March 2023.
The ex-Bravolebrity recently reflected on 2023 in an Instagram post on New Year’s Eve, sharing how her life became “completely unmanageable.”
Shortly after filming the explosive Season 10 reunion, Leviss checked into a mental health facility where she was “able to get the help I needed.”
Afterward, Leviss told her side of the affair –– aka Scandoval –– during her first tell-all interview with Bethenny Frankel in August 2023.
Meanwhile, the new season of “Vanderpump Rules” filmed without her and premieres Jan. 30th at 8 p.m. ET on Bravo.
