Ariana Madix, Tom Sandoval and ‘Pump Rules’ stars reunite as Raquel Leviss drops first interview

Hours before Raquel Leviss’ controversial podcast interview dropped, her “Vanderpump Rules” co-stars were spotted filming scenes for the new season without her.

Ariana Madix, Tom Sandoval and more cast members reunited at Sur for Season 11 Tuesday night.

Madix, 38, was all smiles showing up at Lisa Vanderpump’s restaurant in an all-black outfit with a male friend for the Maui Wildfire Relief Charity event.

She did not appear in any pictures with her ex-boyfriend, who arrived in a striped tank, black jeans and a matching cardigan.

Sandoval was, however, photographed sitting at a table with a woman named Tii, whom he made headlines for leaving a swanky lounge with earlier this month.

The 41-year-old cover band frontman has denied being more than “just friends” with the aspiring musician, but a source told Page Six there is “definitely a connection” between Sandoval and Tii.

In addition to Madix and Sandoval – who split in March after nearly 10 years together following the latter’s months-long affair with Leviss – Lala Kent, Tom Schwartz, Scheana Shay and Katie Maloney also attended the West Hollywood event.

Kent, 32, and Maloney, 36, both rocked black dresses, while Shay, 38, wore pink. Schwartz, 40, sported a casual tee and baseball cap, covering his new platinum locks.

The Bravolebrities have been filming the 11th season of the reality series since June.

While they shot in Lake Tahoe, West Hollywood and more locations, Leviss remained in Arizona where she finished months of mental health treatment in July.

Page Six reported that same month that the former pageant queen, 28, has been playing “hardball” with the network to “get as much money as” possible.

Bethenny Frankel urged Leviss to do so in a subsequent Entertainment Tonight interview, saying, “She should not be shooting. … She should be negotiating a contract that says … ‘I got dragged through the streets, and I was abused mentally.”

In the duo’s “Just B With Bethenny Frankel” podcast episode Wednesday, Leviss accused Bravo of “laughing [and] running to the bank” in the wake of Scandoval while she hasn’t “seen a single penny.”

She called the situation “exploitation,” adding, “It’s not fair. … My mistakes that I’ve made on-camera live on forever.”

Leviss’ co-stars have yet to comment on the bombshell interview, which ranged from claims Sandoval recorded an “intimate” FaceTime video without her consent to comments about Madix’s “uncalled for” behavior at the reunion in March.
