Can Rachel Lewis has fake injuries he claims were sustained during a physical altercation with Scheana Shay?
After Raquel filed a restraining order against Scheana, she claimed it Vanderpump Rules co-star pushed him “against a brick wall causing injury to his back [her] head and punch [her] in the face” and “would do it again,” the insider claims that it was actually Raquel who came for Scheana after her relationship with him. Tom Sandoval has been exposed.
“Scheana is 100 percent not hitting on him,” an insider told Entertainment Tonight on March 8. “Raquel came after Scheana after her Watch What Happens Live taping when this is all out. Scheana took Raquel away from her, and whatever happened after that was Raquel’s fault.
“If you look at old pictures of Raquel, she always has shadows in her eyes. New scratches, but only. The cast finds the restraining order laughable. No one should be afraid of Scheana Shay,” he added, pointing to the November 2022 video in where Raquel is seen looking black.
While Scheana has been accused of getting physical with Raquel in response to her reported relationship with Sandoval, who was in a nine-year relationship with her best friend, Ariana Madixat that time, Kael Ramsey-Ackersona close friend of Pump Rules cast, put Raquel on blast in a scathing Instagram post shared on March 8.
“Soooo I’ve tried to avoid this but one thing I won’t do is lie. All these photos are before [Watch What Happens Live] and in all this the so-called ‘black eye’ is there,” he wrote in the caption of Raquel’s photo series.
“[Raquel Leviss] This is not the way you treat a family, but again everything is clear,” he said. “It’s not just coming to someone who is your best friend but you coming to someone who gives everything to protect you, be there for you, and support you when others don’t. I can’t sit back and watch you create a narrative to save yourself a– when trying to bring others down as a deflection. I hate to have come to this but enough. So [happy International Women’s Day] to a woman who truly remains one and the same without destroying it. Please get the help you need because this hurts.
Below is an additional picture shared by Kael where Raquel is also seen with a black eye.
The picture appears to have been taken on the same day as one of the four injury pics Raquel submitted along with her restraining request.
