The “Vanderpump Rules” drama never seems to end, especially when it involves Tom Sandoval.

Ariana Madix wants to make one thing clear to fans right now: Don’t come for her bestie Scheana Shay!

While Scheana Shay’s Vanderpump Rules allegiances raised eyebrows after she posed for a photo with Tom Sandoval, her costar Ariana Madix is clearing the air.

Tom Sandoval was in tears at the Vanderpump Rules reunion thinking about not being friends with his fellow cast members, but it looks like the group is healing. In photos published by Daily Mail, the cheater was photographed in Lake Tahoe with the rest of the cast on their first group trip since the cheating scandal between Sandoval, Ariana Madix, 38, and her ex-best friend Raquel Leviss.Vanderpump Rules is currently filming its 11th season, which has reunited the cast for the first time since the fiery reunion.

Lala Kent is responding to the backlash.

Puppygate” drama and on the heels of “Scandoval,” trouble magnet “Vanderpump Rules” star Raquel Leviss is caught up in another hairy situation — one we’ll call “Puppygate 2.” The crisis began brewing when Leviss and fiancé James Kennedy called it quits in 2021 — that’s when Leviss got full custody of the couple’s fur baby, an adorable golden doodle puppy named Graham Cracker.Fast forward to now, and Kennedy is heard declaring that Graham had come “back into [his] life,” as Page Six reported. But here’s the latest poop scoop — little Graham turns out to have had quite the ruff journey home to his papa.New intel alleges that Leviss, who recently spent some time at a mental health facility, dropped Graham off at a shelter due to “behavioral issues — mostly a biting problem.”Alleged horrible person Leviss, 28, was already in hot water with her “Vanderpump Rules” co-stars and fans, largely due to the months-long affair with not-so-single Tom Sandoval.

Lala Kent is setting the record straight.

The drama over Raquel Leviss and James Kennedy’s puppy continues!

Raquel Leviss’ mother, Laura Leviss, addressed speculation about why she rehomed the Vanderpump Rules star’s beloved pooch, Graham.

Rachel Leviss and her mother, Laura, did everything they could for dog Graham Cracker, whom the star once shared with her former fiancée, James Kennedy. Laura tells ET the family went above and beyond to find Graham the top rehabilitation center, even after he bit her so badly in the finger that she suffered nerve damage. News reports and social media users suggested Leviss dropped Graham off at a shelter, but her mother Laura tells ET that’s simply not true.«Rachel put Graham into behavior classes after breaking up with James because he had bitten several people. When Rachel went into the mental health facility, she asked us to care for Graham as we have many times before.

Scheana Shay and Lala Kent are defending themselves. After a photo surfaced on Instagram of some of the cast posing with Tom Sandoval following his cheating scandal, the friends took to Instagram to speak out about the situation.A fan snapped the picture with the cast during their trip to Lake Tahoe, which is being filmed and will be featured on season 11 of the show.The shot — which also includes Tom Schwartz, James Kennedy, Ally Lewber and Brock Davies — features Shay standing next to Sandoval with her arm around him.That fact irked fans who are still reeling from the news that Sandoval cheated on his longtime girlfriend, Ariana Madix, with Raquel Leviss, who has started going by her birth name, Rachel, in the wake of the scandal.«I don't know why I feel the need to defend taking a photo with my hand [in a fist] in the back of someone,» Shay began, before Kent chimed in, saying, «People are so stupid.»«It still blows that people don't realize we're filming a show,» Kent said. «And it was that girl's birthday.

Bethenny Frankel's advice to Rachel Leviss -- should Rachel choose to go back to the kind of environment that ultimately landed her in a mental health treatment facility — is don't agree to go back to  until she's hammered out a new deal with Bravo.Speaking to ET's Kevin Frazier after questioning why reality TV stars haven't gone on strike, Frankel says Leviss is the one still getting dragged for her role in creating Scandoval, an affair with Tom Sandoval, whose nine-year relationship with Ariana Madix was torpedoed when news of the affair surfaced earlier this year. While the rest of the gang have all returned to production for the highly anticipated season 11, Leviss has bee noticeably absent. And Frankel, host of the  podcast, encourages Leviss to keep it that way until both sides can come to an agreement.«She had an affair. She's not the first person in the world that's had an affair and, you know, bullying or beating someone down for a tragic error that, yes, everybody has, like,  grabbed and ripped the meat off the carcass.

James Kennedy may no longer be the No. 1 guy in the group now that Graham Cracker is back in the picture.

Raquel Leviss is out and about in the world once more after checking out of a sustained treatment program at a mental health facility. But she’s NOT taking part in the latest Vanderpump Rules cast trip…
