Rachel Leviss opened up about the behind-the-scenes drama that kept her out of the highly anticipated “Vanderpump Rules” Season 11.
In case you missed it, the reality TV star was at the center of the explosive “Scandoval” drama that took place last year. He is not only half of the intense storyline, but he is also responsible for his role in the events that unfold.
Rachel Leviss Is Relieved About Not Following ‘Vanderpump Rules’
As fans tuned in to witness the drama on the Bravo series’ 11th season premiere, Leviss was absent from the screen, content with his decision to stay away.
During a recent episode of her podcast, “Rachel Goes Rogue,” the former VPR star delved into the emotions that came up as she watched the show’s opening credits and cast montages.
When asked about his feelings during the intro credits and cast montage, the 29-year-old admitted to a complex mix of emotions, saying:
“It was like, Okay, I’m watching this show, and I really have to accept the fact that I’m not on it this season, and that’s a decision that I really have a lot of weight to make. I don’t take it lightly.”

While admitting to feeling “a little fomo,” Leviss emphasized his main satisfaction at not being a part of this season’s narrative, stating, “I kept thinking, like, ‘oh my gosh, I’m so glad I’m not a part of this. .'”
Discussing her journey since the scandal, she opened up about therapy and reflected on her relationship patterns, particularly with her ex-fiancé James Kennedy. Leviss admits that the affair with Sandoval has manifested differently than he initially thought. In his words:
“Like I didn’t see the similarities when I was in it, but because I’ve been able to take a step back and look at it more clearly, I can see it.”
The premiere also sparked a backlash against the TV personality, especially when Ariana Madix, Sandoval’s former partner of nine years, revealed the exchange of letters and gifts between them, even after their affair was ruled out.
Leviss acknowledged the difficulty of reviving those caught on camera, saying, “It’s a nod to my younger self who was still in love and infatuated.”
The TV personality insisted that although he had apologized during the reunion, he now realized the importance of aligning actions with words. He expressed regret for his continued relationship with Sandoval after the scandal, acknowledging the hurt caused by Madix.

In previous revelations, Leviss took the stand and accepted responsibility for her role in the drama even after stating that she would not have been involved in the affair had she known about Sandoval’s ongoing relationship.
The Blast reported that he did this after being called out on the “Bravo Tea with Jared B” podcast for his comments.
The California-born beauty accepted the comments with regret, admitting her lack of self-esteem in the situation. He wrote, “? you are not wrong! I should have more self respect than that and should respect Ariana’s relationship with Tom. No reason.”
In a detailed explanation, Leviss revealed that Sandoval had given him many reasons for the delay in breaking up with Madix, emphasizing that he had low self-esteem at the time.
Leviss admitted, “Tom kept telling me he actively broke up with her ‘for good’ for her ‘mental health,’ which I can now see was magical thinking.”
Responding to the complexity of the situation, he explained that amid the many reasons why the breakup had not happened, he found it easier to remain in fantasy than to face reality.
Leviss concludes by agreeing that the podcaster is “absolutely 100% right” that taking himself out of an unhelpful situation is his responsibility.
