Peter Madrigal believe James Kennedy is one of the two people involved in the near-brawl in the recently-filmed Vanderpump Rules reunion.
Following the claim report Jax Taylor recommended it Tom Schwartz and Tom Sandoval who almost sparred, which Scheana Shay denying it, Peter insists that he thinks James’ previous attack was “manipulative” Rachel Lewis and suspected Sandoval of lying.
“I heard that there was a fight that almost broke out. I think James and everyone else,” Peter said on the latest episode of Hollywood Life Pay Attention Puh-Lease! podcast.
“I think James is involved,” he said. “To think – he is also affected by this. He is used, just like I am used. I have been used to cover up a small cheating scandal. I am one of the pawns used in this massive game. In this illegal business.”
When Peter blocked Raquel and Sandoval on Instagram, he was already in a relationship with Scheana, who was the target of a ban filed by Raquel (and later fired).
Speaking about the ban, in which Scheana was accused of stabbing her friend, Peter said it was “a bit exaggerated.”
“I mean, if I knew, and my BFF was affected, I’d probably want the deck, too,” Peter said. “So I think the ban is a good step.”
Although Raquel and Sandoval have continued to date in the weeks since their relationship came to light, Peter doesn’t believe it will last, saying that he’s “probably going to cheat on her.”
“He was still in a relationship with Ariana, when he had sex with Rachel, and then he claimed he was in love with her,” Peter explained. “It’s like, this is sudden.”
Also on the Hollywood Life podcast, Peter said he doesn’t like being “dragged” into “everything.”
“I was used as a scapegoat,” he said. “I have used it to cover up this illegal relationship.”
According to Peter, who went on several dates with Raquel last summer, around the time his relationship with Sandoval began, he thinks that Raquel’s “starter pony” diss was made by Sandoval because he was upset with him for “making out with Raquel when they were connected. .”
“If you do, then another animal comes out. People think, ‘Oh Peter is a good guy, he’s not going to do anything.’ That’s wrong. The one who dares to face wrong,” said Peter. “You insulted me, I came to you. Just because I’m nice and want to keep the peace doesn’t mean you can insult me in front of me and behind my back on national TV.
Moving on about Raquel, Peter has nothing nice to say.
“I don’t know what kind of person would do something like this,” he said. “He’s a very secretive person. That’s not the kind of person I want to be. It’s kind of scary, really. When you think he’s like this, you think he’s nice, and suddenly he’s completely different.
Although Peter did not attend the March 23 reunion taping, he said he “had to be there” to question Raquel about her behavior.
“I would ask her, ‘So, you’re hooking up with Sandoval? And I’m being used as a scapegoat. Why would you do that to other people? Why would you sit in your apartment with Ariana, who’s your friend, and follow a guy behind? What kind of person does that?’ That’s what I’m going to say,” he shared.
