Raquel Leviss has left the public eye.
The “Vanderpump Rules” star has been embroiled in a massive scandal since last month.
“Scandoval” shocked Bravo fans and beyond to the core.
Raquel Leviss Seeks Mental Health Treatment Amid “Scandoval!”
Leviss was having a months-long affair with Tom Sandoval while he was in a long-term relationship with Ariana Madix.
Madix and Leviss were very close friends, some may even say they were best friends, so their secret love affair was all the more jaw dropping!
According to reports, the media backlash and public criticism has become too much for the former beauty pageant queen.
She’s decided to voluntarily enter herself into a mental health facility.
According to an Entertainment Tonight report, the reality TV star along with her family came to the decision for her to seek treatment.
Leviss reportedly made the decision to seek treatment prior to “Scandoval” becoming public knowledge.
A source told the outlet that she planned to start treatment before the explosive reunion taping last month; however, decided to wait until season 10 was fully wrapped.
This Treatment Isn’t Rehab
Her rep confirmed “she isn’t there rehab, but rather mental health and trauma therapy.”
Many on Twitter were conflicted about the news. Some showed support while others weren’t buying it.
Sandoval appeared on Howie Mandel’s podcast, “Howie Mandel Does Stuff,” earlier this week and spilled his guts for the first time about their affair, and the state of his relationship with Madix leading up to his infidelity.
Sandoval revealed he and Leviss are still “good friends,” but “just kind of taking a break.”
He further explained, “we’re not putting any label on it.”
Mandel pried for a bit more information and asked Sandoval if there’s any “friends with benefits” situation going on.
Raquel & Sandoval Are On A Break
The St. Louis, Missouri native replied with “not right now.”
Elsewhere in the interview, Sandoval claimed he had tried to breakup with Madix multiple times prior to their affair coming out.
The former couple were together for nearly a decade before the TV stars’ affair came to light.
Madix found out about her boyfriend’s infidelity in March after discovering an explicit video of her former best friend on his phone.
As previously mentioned, the two ‘VPR’ co-stars aren’t putting a label on their relationship, and Leviss seemed to hint at that during a recent interview.
“We’re just kind of trying to get through these next few steps and trying to, you know, make amends, hear everybody out,” she told paps last week.
A majority of their “Vanderpump Rules” co-stars despise them as do fans of the show, and no one is really in their “corner” when it comes to supporting their relationship.
The current season of ‘VPR’ sheds some light on when their secret love affair first began and how much of a backstabber Leviss can be.
The season finale is reportedly slated to air on May 17th.
A three-part reunion will begin May 24th and “Secrets Revealed” will air on June 14th, according to Twitter account @sur_rules.
