‘Real Housewives of Orange County’ Star Worries About Raquel Leviss’ Mental Health

“Vanderpump Rules” personalities Ariana Madix, 37, and Tom Sandoval, 39, have ended their nine-year-long relationship, as reported by TMZ. According to the publication, Madix called it quits after she became privy to the fact that Sandoval had an affair with their castmate, Raquel Leviss.

While recording the March 10 episode of her podcast, “Two Ts In A Pod,” alongside her co-host “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum, Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave, Tamra Judge shared she is concerned for Leviss due to the backlash she has been receiving. The “Real Housewives of Orange County” star referenced that “Vanderpump Rules” executive producer Lisa Vanderpump implored fans to tone down their reactions toward the model and Sandoval during the March 8 episode of “Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.”

“They are all hurting. I’m not saying that we should let them off the hook. Condemn their actions but don’t condemn the people. I think everyone should be careful with that,” said the restaurateur.

Judge shared that she agreed with Vanderpump’s sentiment.

“After reading days and days of stuff online, and the hate and all this stuff and I started thinking about Raquel. Like she’s 28-years-old. I worry about her mental health at this point,” said the RHOC personality.

The 55-year-old clarified that she “can give two s**** about Tom.”

“He’s old enough to know better and he was in a relationship. Obviously, [Leviss is] old enough to know what she’s doing. I just worry now about, you know, her mental health,” stated the mother of four.

Raquel Leviss Shared She Is Receiving Counseling After Her Involvement With Tom Sandoval Became Public
