Raquel Leviss appears not to be rejoining the cast of “Vanderpump Rules.” A key figure in the show’s Season 10 #Scandoval — the cheating scandal that propelled “Vanderpump Rules” to new ratings heights and two Emmy nominations — Leviss has given her first interview about her participation in the 11th season of the Bravo show, which has been filming since June 28. The discussion took place on Wednesday’s episode of Bethenny Frankel’s “ReWives” podcast, in which the “Real Housewives of New York City” alum covers “Housewives” and Bravo matters. During the interview, Leviss said she did not receive any additional compensation when she was thrust into the spotlight because of #Scandoval, and notably says that she “almost went back” to the show.
“I haven’t seen a single penny,” she said. “It’s not fair. And I feel like a toddler saying, ‘It’s not fair.’ But it really isn’t.
And I feel like I’ve been portrayed as the ultimate villain. My mistakes that I’ve made on camera live on forever. And you mentioned something about the addiction of doing reality TV and the way that they always dangle that carrot in front of you, like, ‘Well, you need to tell your side of the story otherwise it’s gonna be written for you.’ And that’s terrifying.
So I almost went back, I know just because of that.” As a regular cast member on season 10 of “Vanderpump Rules,” Leviss would have been well-compensated, in line with her fellow castmates. Representatives from Bravo did not immediately respond to a request for comment. In addition to her remarks, Leviss appeared to be making a statement by giving her first interview after the June 7 “Vanderpump Rules” reunion to Frankel, who has recently rebranded herself as an advocate for reality star
