Vanderpump Rules Reunion Part 3: Raquel Leviss Reveals Numerous Bombshells about the Show

The highly-anticipated season 10 reunion for Vanderpump Rules left fans with mixed emotions. Prior to the air date, executive producer Alex Baskin promised viewers a shocking reveal that would make some cast members question their return for season 11. Despite rampant speculation about a juicy secret involving Raquel Leviss and Tom Sandoval, the truth was finally revealed in the last five minutes of part 3.

Raquel confessed that she and Tom slept together for the second time in Mexico during Scheana Shay's wedding to Brock Davies and continued their affair for the duration of the trip. Raquel also admitted to asking Sandoval if she and Ariana could be in a throuple with him, which Ariana declined. As for the rumors that Raquel was pregnant with Sandoval's child, Baskin denied the speculation in a late-May interview with Page Six.

The reunion didn't come without its share of drama. Part one had a near-physical altercation between James Kennedy and Sandoval, and Ariana Madix broke up with Sandoval after discovering his infidelity with Raquel. Life & Style confirmed the split in early March.

As fans were left contemplating the explosive reveal, Baskin teased to Variety that there was new information that could affect the cast members' future with the show. However, Lisa Vanderpump denied rumors that she knew about Sandoval and Raquel's relationship before it was public knowledge, and confirmed that she only found out a minute before everyone else.

“It’s a lot of work but I love what I do and feel so honored to be a part of something so amazing. It’s not all fake. I have genuine connections and relationships with the cast. I love them all,” Markham wrote. 

When a fan accused him of knowing about Scandoval before the affair went public, Markham added, “I swear on my life, we had zero idea! This was not a publicity thing for the show. Were there things that made us go hmm? And question? Yes! But the footage you’ve been watching is the reality we filmed. We were all shocked when we got the news about what was really going on.”
