Vanderpump Rules season 10 aired its fifth episode on Wednesday, featuring Raquel Leviss, Lala Kent, and Ariana Madix on a girls’ trip.

While Lala and Raquel were at a bar, both showed interest in Oliver Saunders, son of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills (RHOBH) star Garcelle Beauvais. Raquel told Lala that if he was interested in the latter then she would not come in between Oliver and Lala. However, things went in Raquel’s direction and viewers saw her hooking up with him.

Fans claimed that Raquel was secretly dating Tom Sandoval at the time.

According to reports, Tom and Raquel were secretly having an affair for months. Speculations about the timeline were made after Vanderpump Rules season 10 episode 5.


Fans slammed Raquel Leviss on Twitter

In Vanderpump Rules season 10 episode 5, Katie Maloney decided to go on a girls’ trip to Las Vegas. She invited Lala Kent, Kristina Kelly, Ariana Madix, and Raquel Leviss.

However, Ariana had to leave early as Tom Sandoval informed her that her dog was sick. Lala and Raquel were later seen flirting with Oliver, who ended up kissing Raquel.

Fans slammed Raquel on Twitter, claiming that she was dating Tom Sandoval at the same time. Fans also predicted that Raquel acted this way out of jealousy after learning that Tom was going to be there for Ariana as the latter’s dog was sick.

For those unaware, Tom and Ariana recently broke up their nine-year relationship after he was caught cheating on her with Raquel.

Vanderpump Rules season 10 episode 5 also featured a conversation between Ariana and Raquel about Tom Schwartz. Earlier, Raquel was seen flirting with Schwartz, stating that Scheana Shay pushed her in that direction.

In the previous episode, Raquel revealed to Katie that she tried to make a move on Schwartz the other day, but he denied the offer. To note, Katie and Schwartz have filed for divorce.

Katie was seen heartbroken but thanked Raquel for telling her the truth and decided not to invite Scheana on her Las Vegas trip. Ariana was also present during the conversation and was shocked at Raquel’s boldness.

In the latest episode 5, Ariana told Raquel:

“I could not believe what you [Raquel] told Katie last night, that you asked Schwartz if you wanted to make out. I was like, 'Am I about to be mad at Raquel for the first time?'"

In her confessional, Ariana said:

“We've been encouraging Raquel, 'Get out there, make mistakes, go crazy,' but then when she says she asked Schwartz to make out with her, it's like, 'But not like that.’"

Currently, Ariana’s nine years of relationship with her boyfriend Sandoval has come to an end due to a cheating scandal with Raquel.
