On Vanderpump Rules‘ March 29 episode, Raquel Leviss continued to pursue Tom Schwartz months before news of her affair with Tom Sandoval went public.
Tom Sandoval Reveals Regrets About Affair With Raquel Leviss
Before Scandoval, all eyes were on Tom Schwartz and Raquel Leviss.
Take, for instance, on Vanderpump Rules‘ March 29 episode, which saw the former beauty queen continue to pursue Schwartz ahead of Scheana Shay‘s August 2022 wedding in Cancun—and months before Leviss’ affair with co-star Tom Sandoval was made public.
During Shay’s surprise bridal shower at Lisa Vanderpump‘s house, Leviss and Schwartz stole a moment away from their castmates to catch up one-on-one. “I love that Schwartz and I have gotten to the place where we’re tight and, who knows, maybe we’ll be even tighter in the future,” she admitted in her confessional. “Tighter kind of sounds like vaginal tight, though.”
Ahead of their getaway, Leviss even encouraged the TomTom co-owner to let loose on the trip. “We’ve gotta enjoy our time in Mexico,” she said. “When we’re out of the country there’s nothing you can do but to have fun.”
The sweet moment didn’t go over well with Leviss’ ex-fiancé James Kennedy, who overheard their convo.
“Honestly, what the f–k is that?” Kennedy reacted in a confessional. “Why are you flirting with Raquel right in front of me? You look f–king absurd mate, like desperate and absurd. Go hit the treadmill you fat f–k.”
Meanwhile, Schwartz got cheeky—literally—when he told Leviss how he lost a bet during a game at Vanderpump’s home. “Do you know how I ended up with a tattoo of ‘LVP’ on my ass?” he asked. “It was on this ping pong table. My ass looks great with ‘LVP’ on it.”
After she replied “I’m sure it does,” Schwartz responded, “I’ll show you in Mexico.”
Later in the episode, the two bonded over their love of galaxy light projectors (yes, really) at a Schwartz & Sandy’s after party for Shay.
As the VPR season 10 trailer confirmed, Schwartz and Leviss do eventually hookup in Mexico, causing major drama between him and ex-wife Katie Maloney. Of course, this was all before it was revealed earlier this month that Leviss had been having an affair with Sandoval, leading to his breakup from girlfriend of nine years Ariana Madix.
See the drama play out when Vanderpump Rules airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. on Bravo.
