Raquel Leviss' Ex-Fling Admits He 'Saw Some Things' Go Down Between Her & Tom Sandoval

Raquel Leviss and Tom Sandoval’s affair may have been a shock to the entire cast, but there’s one person who may have seen the signs long before “Scandoval” broke.

No, we aren’t talking Tom Schwartz. What he knows is still to be determined given he continues to plead the fifth.

Peter Madrigal is the general manager at Lisa Vanderpump’s SUR restaurant located in West Hollywood, CA.

Raquel Leviss works at SUR and the two have been on a few dates; however, things never progressed any further between the two.

Appearing on the “Behind The Velvet Rope with David Yontef” podcast, Madrigal said he overlooked signs that Sandoval and Leviss were hooking up.

He simply didn’t believe Sandoval was capable of cheating on Ariana Madix given they had been together for nearly a decade.

“I kind of dismissed it,” he admitted despite saying he “saw some things” happen between Leviss and the TomTom restauranteur. “Sandoval is loyal to Ariana. He would never do something like that.”

Unfortunately, Madrigal didn’t want to “get into details about what he saw” between the scandalous lovers.

The SUR GM thought he knew Sandoval and considered him a close friend, but realized after “Scandoval” broke that he knew NOTHING about the guy.

Madrigal repeatedly expressed how “disappointed” he is in Sandoval before adding this about Leviss, “I thought she was a good person, but then again, I hardly knew her.”

Leviss and Sandoval’s affair will play out on this season of “Vanderpump Rules,” and you best believe Andy Cohen is getting all the tea during the reunion taping.

Their dirty little secret affair started last summer, but Madix only found out about it earlier this month.

Sandoval has embarked on an amateur music career and started a band called, “Tom Sandoval & The Most Extras.”

He held a show at TomTom, which is a restaurant he co-owns with his ‘VPR’ co-star, Schwartz.

Yes, lots of Toms and moving parts here!

Anyways, during his show, Sandoval’s phone reportedly fell out of his pocked and Madix was in the front row. She picked it up and discovered an explicit video of Leviss on his phone.

Madix immediately broke up with Sandoval and then began “Scandoval.”

Since then, their ‘VPR’ co-stars have rallied around Madix and basically exiled Sandoval and Leviss.

Now, Madix has taken the next step to heal from the cheating scandal.

She has seemingly BLOCKED her ex-boyfriend and ex-BFF on Instagram. She also unfollowed Schwartz.

She has yet to make any kind of statement or post since the scandal broke, but it’s only a matter of time.

Both Sandoval and Leviss have issued “apologies,” I use that term loosely.

The “Schwartz & Sandy’s” co-owner first issued an “apology,” but didn’t even say “I’m Sorry” or mention Madix.

His first statement was asking fans to not take their hatred for him out on his businesses.

Obviously, this caused a TON of backlash and trash talking from fans, followers and viewers of “Vanderpump Rules.”

So, he did what any guilty reality TV star does… he issued another apology, this time mentioning Madix multiple times.

“I want to first and foremost apologize to everyone I’ve hurt through this process. Most of all, I want to apologize to Ariana. I made mistakes, I was selfish, and made reckless decisions that hurt somebody I love. No one deserves to feel that pain so traumatically and publicly,” his message began. “My biggest regret is that I dishonored Ariana. I’ve never meant to disappoint so many people, including our loving families and friends. My love for Ariana was stronger than any camera could ever have captured. Some of our best times together were never filmed. The same goes for some of our biggest struggles. I wish things happened in a different order and our relationship was not severely tarnished, and that it ended with the same respect with for her that it began with.  I owed Ariana better."

Leviss on the other hand issued two messages in one day.

Her “apology” reads, “I want to apologize for my actions and my choices to Ariana, my friends and the fans so invested in our relationships. There is no excuse, I am not a victim and must own my actions. I deeply regret hurting Ariana.”

Mind you, this “apology” came five days after the scandal broke!

She issued another note about her feelings for Sandoval.

“My feelings for Tom have always been sincere and born out of a loving friendship. Knowing how many people we hurt, I need to understand my choices and learn to make better ones. I need to take care of my health, work on self-growth and take time to be ok with being alone,” she wrote. “I care for Tom and I don’t want to label anything or predict what lies ahead. Right now I need to heal.”
