Lala knows.
Todd Williamson/BravoWorth the hype? Lala knows shared her thoughts on the explosive revelation that came during the latter part of the Vanderpump Rules season 10 reunion.
During part 3 of the Pump rules reunion — airing on Bravo on Wednesday, June 7 — Rachel Leviss spent the last five minutes solo with a producer, revealing that she and Tom Sandoval‘s affair started earlier than they said before. The former beauty queen, 28, also shared that she initially wanted to be in a “throuple” Ariana Madix and Sandoval, 40.
“I was so confused,” said 32-year-old Kent Andy Cohen at her performance on Wednesday night Watch What Happens live with Andy CohenShe said she was still trying to wrap her head around Leviss, going from a “lost soul” to “complete breakdown, like, ‘I tried to protect Tom.’ It’s like taking a dose of acid.”
Surprisingly, the host of the “Give Them Lala” podcast added that she “feels better” about Leviss after watching her latest confessions. Leviss “needs a lot of work,” Kent acknowledged. “I don’t know if reality TV is best for that.”
Before Leviss’s last-minute confessions on part 3 of the reunion – in which she revealed that she and Sandoval were together for the second time Scheana Shay And Brock Davieswedding in August 2022 and confessed to lying in front of Sandoval – the duo were confronted by their costars for their affair. The model, to whom he was previously engaged James Kennedyjoined the cast after watching the reunion from a separate trailer due to her temporary restraining order against Shay, 38.
As things quickly got heated – with the majority of the cast cursing Sandoval and Leviss for their fling – the duo confessed that they are in love with each other. However, Kent told Cohen that she believes the TomTom co-founder has “already moved on” and will “not forgive” Leviss for spilling the beans about the timeline of their romance.
Kent also responded to Sandoval’s “T-shirt” comment, saying it made her feel “sick.” (“[Ariana] kept her T-shirt on, it was really hot,” the restaurateur said sarcastically at the reunion when Madix revealed they were still sleeping together amid his fling with Leviss.)
Us weekly confirmed in March that Leviss and Sandoval’s secret romance led to his split from Madix, 37, after nearly a decade of dating. In response to public backlash, Leviss and the co-owner of Schwartz & Sandy issued separate apologies to Madix on social media.
Kent, for her part, joined the conversation when she publicly sided with the Florida native. Viewers previously saw a feud between the beauty mogul and Leviss after the California native called her costar a mistress on screen multiple times.
Before the reunion aired, Kent recalled that he originally thought Leviss would be the fan favorite for the season.
“She would have won the season. She would have been the No. 1 girl as she sobs to make up for lost time,” the Utah said during an episode of her podcast in May, referring to the former beauty queen’s emotional confessions about her divorce from Kennedy, 31. We think she cried so hard because she felt guilty? The line was crossed long before they had sex. The emotional affair had already begun.”
At the time, Kent said she wasn’t ruling out a possible redemption arc for Leviss, adding, “As much as I hit her every chance I get, otherwise I see a broken person.” I don’t think she’s heartless and soulless.
However, Kent’s friendship with Sandoval took a major turn in the wake of his infidelity. After arguing on screen during the reunion, the Give them Lala author took the drama to social media in response to comments Sandoval made about her daughter.
“You’re a bloody idiot. You pulled your IUD the day you found out Stassi was pregnant,” the Missouri native said during part 2 of the reunion. His comment, which Kent didn’t hear during taping, was a dig at his costar’s delivery two months later Vanderpump Rules alum Stassi Schroeder welcomed daughter Hartford with husband Beau Clark.
After the episode aired, Kent set Sandoval on fire in a lengthy social media post.
“Tonight is the second time I’ve seen Sandoval reduce the conception of my beautiful, magical daughter. I’m disgusted. It makes me sit here and wonder who the hell raised you and how they’re supposed to sit there saying, “Do we really need to claim this f-king dude?” Really?’” the reality star personality, who shares her 2-year-old child with ex Randall Emmett, said. “I’m so glad I didn’t hear that at the reunion because I’ll tell you what, these mama bear paws would have scared the hell out of him. Sandoval, you better watch your tongue. When you talk about me, you keep my daughter out of your mouth. That’s where I draw the line. You can come and get me all day. You leave her out of it.’
She concluded: “That baby was born out of love, respect. My relationship may be on the rocks, but that little girl is the best thing that ever happened to me. How dare you.”
