Birthday bling! Raquel Leviss splurged on a lightning bolt necklace — like the one Tom Sandoval wears — on Vanderpump Rules before news broke in March that she and the TomTom cofounder were hooking up.

The former pageant queen seemingly hinted at her relationship with Tom, 40, in the preview, which was released on Friday, May 5, with the jewelry purchase.
“I’m going to put it on,” Raquel said in the teaser, showing off the gold bolt design. She eventually agreed to pay the expensive price tag, calling the necklace, a “birthday gift to myself.”
