Shutter (3)In a post-scandoval world, some past interactions with Rachel Leviss hit different. Paige DeSorbo didn’t hold back as she remembered a story about the Vanderpump Rules star at Hannah Bernier And Bishop’s marriage.
“I’m literally pacing the whole f—king room. I’m timing Craig at the bar and watching Raquel leave the dance floor and walk over to Craig,” the 30-year-old Summer House star, who is dating Craig Conover since the summer of 2021, said during a recent “Giggly Squad” podcast live broadcast, via a video shared via TikTok. “I stand there and I literally turn to everyone around me and I’m like, ‘I don’t trust that bitch. … Everyone was like, ‘Oh, my God, no, she’s so nice! She would never want to.’ And I f—king knew it.
While BFFs agreed that Raquel, 28, has always been “really nice to us,” Hannah, 31, quipped, “But in a way like a wounded bird.”
The SURver was present at the May 2022 nuptials as Sunset Shahs alum There is no vandate, nearly three months before her and Tom Sandoval secretly slept together for the first time in August 2022. While Sandoval, 40, who was dating a longtime partner Ariana Madix at the time – insisted the couple broke up briefly before falling ‘in love’ in January, Raquel later confessed their affair never ended.

And it’s all there anyway. The worst is out. Yet I still find myself having to lie about specific things in the timeline,” Raquel said in Part 3 of the Vanderpump Rules meeting, which aired earlier this month. “[Sandoval] I feel like it would be less hurtful to say it didn’t last that long. … The second time was actually in Mexico [for Scheana Shay’s wedding].”
Confirming the infidelity was ongoing, Raquel said: “I can’t remember how often it would happen, but it definitely escalated after filming ended. [in September 2022].”
She further admitted to having slept with Sandoval while Ariana – who learned of the affair in March – was out of town at her grandmother’s funeral.

Especially for a funeral of all things” , Raquel said through tears. “So I don’t know, it’s f—king killed my soul. I’m so tired of lying. I hate that. I hate being deceitful. It’s horrible.”
Paige and Hannah, meanwhile, questioned why Sandoval wasn’t by his girlfriend’s side as she cried.
“Why wasn’t Sandoval at the funeral?” Paige asked in the aforementioned clip.
Hannah added, “It’s all wild.”
