As James Kennedy questioned if Tom Sandoval and Rachel “Raquel” Leviss were ever in love or purely in a physical relationship, Sandoval insisted they “talked” for hours and sex was only a small part of their connection
Tom Sandoval is reeling after learning his ex Rachel “Raquel” Leviss may have never really loved him.
On the April 16 episode of Vanderpump Rules, the Schwartz & Sandy’s co-owner, 41, was upset when Rachel went on her podcast and stated she “wasn’t in love” with him during their months-long affair, which ended his relationship with his girlfriend of nine years, Ariana Madix.
However, he argued that he “made changes” to himself in hopes the relationship would work.
Sandoval admitted to friend Tom Schwartz that he hoped “one day that she would see the work that I’d done myself and would appreciate it.” He broke down and added, “I don’t understand how she said I was anything but somebody who just loved and cared about her, like I’ll do anything for her.”
“I wasn’t fully ready to give up hope until I heard it from her own lips and now I have,” he shared in a confessional. “To go through all that and not even give it a shot, like what was it all for?”
Schwartz, 41, then delivered the hard truth to his pal, saying. “It’s over, man. It’s been over.”
After her own chat with Sandoval, Lisa Vanderpump worried that his mental health struggles could return, saying, “I don’t want Sandoval to start spiraling after we just got him to a place where it was starting to even out.”
However, Sandoval didn’t find the same supportive ear in costar James Kennedy when he told him, “I really tried to look out for Raquel and I’m realizing now that I cared for her way more than she f—ing cared for me.”
Sandoval called Rachel’s comments on the podcast “disrespectful,” and added, “She used me and now is throwing me away.”
James, 32, insisted Sandoval just wanted the drama in his “past” and told him that he didn’t want “talk s—” about Rachel. But Sandoval continued to note that he didn’t get any sort of “closure” and claimed Rachel was “selfish with getting involved with me.”
James saw the situation in a different light and suggested that Sandoval and Rachel were “never in love,” but rather “it was a f— fest for six months.”
This prompted Sandoval to defend their relationship, saying, “I would literally go over to her house and would spend like five, six hours together. If we had sex, it would be for a little bit, we would talk the whole time.”
