The Sketchiest Things About Raquel Leviss

Publish date: 2024-04-22

Between the Tom Schwartz fling and the Tom Sandoval affair, fans might have forgotten that Season 10 of "Vanderpump Rules" kicked off with a very single Raquel Leviss, who was seemingly playing the field at her place of employment. The first episode showed the beginning of a romance with SUR manager Peter Madrigal, who has been a fixture on the series since its debut in 2013. During that episode, Leviss shared that Madrigal was the first person to ask her out on a date following the end of her engagement with James Kennedy. The romance was short-lived, however, with Leviss ending things early on in the season. 

While reflecting on the brief relationship during an early March 2023 appearance on "Watch What Happens Live," Leviss had a seemingly shady answer about whether she regretted their fling, telling host Andy Cohen, "I feel like Peter is like a great starting pony to get back into the dating world." Ouch.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, Madrigal had something to say about the snarky comment, appearing on the "Alison Rosen is Your Next Best Friend" podcast shortly after and sharing that there was a spark between the two originally, and that he did not appreciate Leviss' remarks. "The starter pony is gonna speak up. 'Cause ... I'm nobody's starter pony," he fired back, adding, "I always keep an even keel, but, my God, who the hell do you think you are? Who the f*** do you think you are?"
