Without a doubt, one of the biggest frustrations Lisa Vanderpump has had with Rachel “Raquel” Leviss in the months after Scandoval was her interview with Vanderpump’s fellow former “Real Housewife” Bethenny Frankel. In particular, Vanderpump has complained that in the interview for the “Just B with Bethenny Frankel” podcast, Leviss made inaccurate claims.
In particular, Vanderpump took umbrage at Leviss’ assertions on the podcast that she earned next to nothing, despite being involved in a scandal that boosted ratings and lined the pockets of those at the network. Speaking with a reporter from TMZ, the restaurateur clapped back at the former cast member’s claims. Though she made a point of saying she hadn’t listened to the full podcast, she hinted that the “Vanderpump Rules” alum’s net worth was higher than she was letting on. “I think she got very well paid. I think she got paid $361,000,” she said.
More recently, Vanderpump has confirmed that the “Just B with Bethenny Frankel” interview annoyed her. Speaking to Page Six in January 2024, she explained, “Had she come to me, I think I would’ve been good to her.” She also reiterated that Leviss’ claims of poor pay were incorrect. “I know exactly how much money she made, and it was, you know, six figures,” she said.
