Kristen Doute ‘can see’ why Tom Sandoval went for ‘f–king dumb’ Raquel Leviss

Kristen Doute thinks Tom Sandoval was attracted to Raquel Leviss because the former pageant queen is “f–king dumb.”

The “Vanderpump Rules” alum slammed her former co-stars while breaking down “Scandoval” on the “Viall Files” podcast Thursday.

After calling Leviss “dumb” with “no personality,” Doute, 40, said that she can “see why Tom” cheated on Ariana Madix with her.

“Ariana has a backbone,” Doute explained. “Raquel does not. Raquel validates everything that Tom needs to be validated.”

She claimed that Leviss, 28, makes Sandoval, 40, feel “cool” and “talented.”

Doute, meanwhile, shaded her ex-boyfriend’s “stupid band and his sequined pants and his nail polish and his dumb haircuts and the pedophile mustache, for f–k’s sake.”

She and Sandoval dated on and off from 2016 to 2014, with the singer moving on with Madix, 37, after their split. The duo bought a house together in 2019.

Madix dumped the Tom Sandoval & the Most Extras frontman earlier this month when news broke of his infidelity.

Doute has been slamming Sandoval ever since, telling “Scheananigans With Scheana Shay” podcast listeners on March 10 that he has been “gaslighting” Madix since the scandal and not acting “apologetic.”

Madix, for her part, broke her silence with an Instagram post Wednesday night.

“to say i have been devastated and broken is an understatement,” she wrote of surviving her “darkest hours.”

Madix continued, “i am so fucking lucky to have the best support system in the world and i hope i can repay every single person for the love you have shown me.”

After noting that she isn’t “alone” in “reeling from this betrayal on so many levels,” Madix concluded, “what doesn’t kill me better run.”

Sandoval and Leviss have both apologized to Madix with social media statements.

However, Doute clarified on Thursday that Madix has not spoken to her former friend since confronting Leviss about the affair over the phone.

“The network asked production at one point if Ariana would film with her,” Doute claimed. “Production had her back. [They] were like … ‘It’s not happening.’”

She noted that filming the reunion on March 23 will be “bad enough” for Madix’s mental health.

“Vanderpump Rules” airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
