Vanderpump Rules: Tom Sandoval breaks down crying after Rachel Leviss says she never loved him on podcast after their months-long affair

Tom Sandoval broke down crying after hearing Rachel ‘Raquel’ Leviss say on her podcast that she never really loved him on Tuesday’s episode of Vanderpump Rules.

The 41-year-old reality star and Rachel, 29, engaged in a months-long affair behind the back of Tom’s longtime girlfriend Ariana Madix, 38, and he held onto hope they would get together. 

‘I wasn’t fully ready to give up hope until I heard it from her own lips and now I have,’ Sandoval said in a confessional. ‘To go through all that and not even give it a shot? Like, what was it all for?’

They talked about Rachel saying she never loved Sandoval and he started crying. 

‘It’s over man,’ Schwartz, 40, said. ‘It’s been over.’

The season 11 episode titled How’d You’d Like Them Apples? opened at Scheana Shay‘s music video shoot for her song Good as Gold. Scheana, 38, wasn’t happy that Katie Maloney, 37, didn’t show up, but Lala Kent, 33, and Ariana Madix, 38, came to support her.

At James Kennedy‘s house, his girlfriend Ally Lewber, 28, told James that his former fiancée Raquel did a podcast blaming him for their dog’s bad behavior.

‘She thinks she has this platform where she can talk s*** about me and make me seem like a bad doggy dad,’ James, 32, said.

Ally said that Rachel also said that she was upset after her split with James and never really loved Sandoval.

‘I wonder how he feels?’ Ally said.

Ariana also listened to the podcast and was upset that Rachel called her just an acquaintance. 

Lala asked Ariana if she could host her party at her house but Ariana said her house she still shared with Sandoval was a ‘hot mess’ without his former assistant Ann. Lala decided she was going to ask Lisa Vanderpump to host it at her house.

Rachel Leviss, shown earlier this month in Hollywood, declined to appear on this season of Vanderpump Rules, but started her own podcast in which she talked about Sandoval

‘I wasn’t fully ready to give up hope until I heard it from her own lips and now I have,’ Sandoval said in a confessional. ‘To go through all that and not even give it a shot? Like, what was it all for?’

Sandoval went over to Tom Schwartz ‘s house and said he was ‘shell shocked’ after listening to Rachel’s podcast

‘It’s over man,’ Schwartz, 40, said. ‘It’s been over’

Sandoval cried and accused Rachel of using him after hearing her podcast episode

Lisa, 63, showed up at Tom Tom to try new cocktails by Schwartz and Sandoval for the restaurant’s new brunch, but Sandoval showed up late.

‘I’m upset,’ said Sandoval when he walked in 45 minutes late about Raquel’s podcast. ‘It’s bulls***.’

‘So don’t listen to it,’ Lisa said. ‘Another one’s coming out tomorrow are you going to listen to that?’

‘Yes, I’m going to listen,’ Sandoval said.

Lisa asked Sandoval what was happening with the house. He said Ariana finally responded to his offer and wanted to accept.

‘Ariana took so long to get back to me that now I’m on the fence of whether I want to keep it at all or can keep that house at all,’ Sandoval said in a confessional. ‘If I have to refinance it would be more than double of what I’m currently paying.’

‘Sell it,’ Lisa said.

Lala stopped by and asked Lisa if she could host her sperm donor party at her house.

‘Everyone is going to be jerking off in my back garden?’ Lisa said.

Lala said no one would be doing that.

‘I do not want you throwing around sperm at my house,’ Lisa said.

Lala said everyone was going to just get a packet and vote on who should be her donor.

‘You really want to do this?’ Lisa said before giving her blessing.

Scheana and husband Brock Davies went over to Ariana’s house to help her clean it up. Ariana told them that she heard Sandoval wanted to sell the house, which was what she wanted from the beginning. Ariana also said she heard that Sandoval was upset about Rachel’s podcast and laughed when she heard another episode was dropping.

James stopped by Sandoval’s rehearsal for his show at the El Rey Theater and asked how he was doing.

‘It’s been a rough couple of days dude. I can’t lie,’ Sandoval said. ‘I’m realizing now that I cared for her way more than she f***ing cared for me.’

‘She used me and now has thrown me away,’ Sandoval said.

James said he didn’t want to talk about his past.

‘I didn’t even get any sort of closure,’ Sandoval said.

‘F*** closure,’ James said. ‘She’s working on herself.’

‘I don’t believe you guys were ever in love. I think it was f*** fest for six months,’ James said.

Sandoval said that wasn’t true.

‘What you and Ariana had was true love,’ James said.

‘I did love her,’ Sandoval said.

‘I don’t believe you guys were ever in love. I think it was f*** fest for six months,’ James said

‘I did love her,’ Sandoval said

‘Rewrite history in your mind and have fun with your f***ing band,’ James said. ‘I’m not opening for you at the f***ing El Rey because I’ve moved on to bigger and better things. This is a joke to me.’

James said in a confessional that he was waiting for Sandoval to let go of the past and get a clue.

‘Go push some buttons on your laptop,’ Sandoval said. ‘Don’t call my band a f***ing joke.’

Lala had set up games at Lisa’s house for her party including one called ‘pin the sperm on the vagina.’

Ally checked in on Katie and said she heard from Lala that she was ‘miserable’ and was getting upset really easily.

‘Since when did Lala start talking s*** behind my back instead of just doing it to my face?’ Katie said in a confessional.

Lala thanked everyone for coming.

‘This is not how I pictured my life and I’m just beyond grateful that this is an option,’ Lala said. ‘This is very fun but obviously we are picking my baby daddy.’

‘I had more fun conceiving your baby than I did my own,’ Lisa said after the party.

Schwartz went over to spend time with Sandoval. Sandoval said he would consider keeping the house if he had a roommate.

‘Dude the optics of that are horrible,’ Schwartz said. ‘Someone would make voodoo dolls of us and pin them and needle them.’

‘Dude, someone already did that,’ Sandoval said.

Sandoval said his share of the rent would be $6,000 a month.

‘You pay $4,500 a month!’ Sandoval said.

‘I cannot in good conscience put 6k towards something that I’m not going to get a return on,’ Schwartz said.

Sandoval said they would get a loan together and asked him to think about it.

‘Dude the optics of that are horrible,’ Schwartz said. ‘Someone would make voodoo dolls of us and pin them and needle them’

After the party, Ally and James talked about their future. James said he saw them getting married and having babies but Ally said those were things she never thought about. James started crying.

‘This girl that I’m completely in love with is basically telling me that she’s never had plans to have kids,’ James said crying in a confessional. ‘Honesty, it breaks my f***ing heart.’

The next day, James showed up for brunch at Tom Tom and apologized to Sandoval. Lala told Katie that she thought she wasn’t in a happy place.

‘You’re wrong,’ Katie said.

Lala told her that she loved her but understood that she didn’t have a lot of time for her.

Scheana told Sandoval that she wrote a line of her song about him that says ‘From a Ferrari to a Jetta thought that you knew better.’ He then stormed out.

Scheana told Sandoval that she wrote a line of her song about him that says ‘From a Ferrari to a Jetta thought that you knew better’ and he stormed out leaving her with Schwartz

‘The song it’s open to interpretation aside from the fact that Rachel used to literally drive a Jetta,’ Schwartz said in a confessional

‘I feel like Scheana and I have come a long way,’ Sandoval said in a confessional. ‘We were really starting to become friends again, and then it’s like go profit off my pain. It’s like Tom’s just going to be collateral damage. I don’t give a s***. I gotta put my track out. If Scheana was really caring about mending things she wouldn’t have done this.’

‘Keep cashing in on my misery!’ Sandoval said.

Vanderpump Rules will return next Tuesday on Bravo.
