Vanderpump Rules star Raquel Leviss has finally broken her silence days after the affair heard around the world—or at least the greater Los Angeles area—was exposed.
“I want to apologize for my actions and my choices foremost to Ariana, and to my friends and the fans so invested in our relationships,” Leviss said in a statement to Entertainment Tonight. “There is no excuse, I am not a victim and I must own my actions and I deeply regret hurting Ariana.”
Leviss, 28, also seemed to confirm the rumor that co-star Scheana Shay gave her a black eye, noting she’d been “physically assaulted, lost friendships, received death threats and hate emails in addition to having had my privacy violated” since her affair with co-star Tom Sandoval was made public. On Wednesday, Leviss filed for a restraining order against Shay, according to TMZ.
