Wishes Her Peace and Happiness on Her 29th Birthday
2. Rachel “Raquel” Leviss is burning birthday candles — and bridges,
apparently — as she turns 29.
As the Vanderpump Rules alum marks another turn around the sun,
she has signaled on Instagram Story that she‟s blocked former
lover Tom Sandoval.
Leviss has been making big changes in her life six months after
Bravo‟s Scandoval ignited when news of her her months-long
affair with Sandoval — who was costar Ariana Madix‟s then- boyfriend
of nine years — became public knowledge.
After going back to using her birth name of Rachel in mid-August, the
former pageant contender also updated her Instagram bio recently to
read: “Becoming a better person… one day at a time.” She also deleted
her initial mea culpa to Madix, 38, from early March last month —
seemingly representing her desire to start a new chapter after
completing a 90-day stay in a mental health counseling facility.
Two days before her birthday, Leviss posted a video of herself in
bucolic setting on Instagram, captioning it: “I‟ve been dreaming of a
place like this � #flowerfarm #flowerarranging”
Sandoval, 41, commented on the post Monday, writing: “Happy
Birthday, Rachel, I really hope ur finding peace and happiness. Miss u
friend.”
3. Not long after, the birthday girl posted an Instagram Story with a
screenshot of her Sandoval‟s Instagram account, which she had
blocked.
She included a hot pink sticker with white writing reading “OK bye!”
that served as a caption and, seemingly, a farewell.

5. Five months ago, Leviss — who will not return for season 11 of VPR —
shared in a statement: “I want to apologize for my actions and my
choices foremost to Ariana, and to my friends and the fans so invested
in our relationships.”
“There is no excuse, I am not a victim and I must own my actions and I
deeply regret hurting Ariana,” she said in part. “I am reflecting on my
choices, speaking to a counselor and I am learning things about myself
such as my patterns of codependency and addiction to being and
feeling loved. I have sought emotional validation through intimate
connections that are not healthy without regard for my own well-being,
sometimes negatively affecting others and often prioritizing the
intimate connection over my friendships.”
Leviss said she was “taking steps to understand my behavior and make
healthier choices.”
On Monday, after posting the screenshot showing she cut ties from her
former costar, she shared another, much happier, image from her trip
to the flower farm.
“Thank you for the bday wishes,” she wrote, adding with a sparkle
emoji.

7. Back in April, the former SUR waitress checked in for “mental health
and trauma therapy.”
In her first interview since leaving treatment, the Bravo star offered
new insight on how her view of Sandoval and Madix‟s relationship
played into her decision to fall into the affair.
“I would not be involved in this affair secrecy type of situation if I
thought there was longevity in this relationship between Tom and
Ariana,” she said on Bethenny Frankel „s podcast.
“The people closest to them could see that their relationship hasn‟t
been what they portray on camera,” she said, “and Tom always told me
they‟re a brand, they‟re an image, they work together to make brand
deals and they are business partners. They‟re a duo on the show and
they utilize that for the success of their brand or image.”
8. Still, Leviss admitted has “a lot” of regrets and “would do everything
differently if I had the chance to go back.”
“I really just wanna acknowledge that a lot of people were believing in
me and I feel like I was a disappointment to those people,” she told
Frankel, 52. “I know that there was a lot of trust that was broken
between friendships and betrayal that happened.”
She added, “I look back at my actions and I‟m disappointed in myself
as well. That is not the person that I want to be. I wasn‟t happy. I was
really hurting.”
