Viewers have only seen the first episode of Season 11 of Vanderpump Rules, and there is already some light drama. Rachel Leviss, who decided not to return this season, has been speaking out on her podcast, Rachel Goes Rogue. Rachel had better discover some other topics to discuss. So, right after the Scandoval news broke, Rachel alleged that Scheana Shay punched her in the face.
Rachel gave Scheana a temporary restraining order, which was later dropped. For the record, Scheana denied punching Rachel. But Rachel has decided that she won’t see Scheana again. “No, I don’t plan on ever talking to her again. I don’t have many boundaries, but one of them is physical violence,” Rachel said.
Scheana’s face is a problem for Rachel
Of course, Rachel watched the Pump Rules premiere. “When I watch it, I’m just happy that I’m not in it. I don’t have to worry about things that are coming up this season. Well, that’s not true, I do worry about things that are going to come up this season,” Rachel explained.
“It is hard seeing Scheana and Ariana [Madix], two people that I did call friends,” she continued. “I think I have a lot more resentment towards Scheana so I think the thorn for me is just seeing Scheana’s face. I’m working through that and I think with time and more therapy and just more I don’t know,” Rachel stated.
“I don’t wanna always feel that way when I look at her but I guess right now it’s just not an enjoyable thing for me.” Yikes! I understand that, after an alleged physical incident, Rachel might be traumatized. But there are better ways to state her case.
Since the Season 10 reunion, Rachel has backpedaled on her close friendship with Ariana. I suppose that makes it easier to rationalize her affair with Ariana’s worm boyfriend, Tom Sandoval. “Ariana and I were not best friends. We were acquaintances who became friends through the show,” Rachel said.
Meanwhile, Scheana let Rachel stay in her apartment in Los Angeles after Rachel ditched James Kennedy. “[She said] that I didn’t pay rent, which is not true. I did pay rent and I also cat sat for her cat,” Rachel said. “It’s just unfortunate that she’s trying to create this narrative that I’ve taken advantage of her when I feel like I did contribute in a way,” she added.
I think both ladies agree about one thing: they have no desire to see each other again.
You can catch Season 11 of Vanderpump Rules on Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
