The new normal? James Kennedy vocalized his concerns about Raquel Leviss‘ interest in unavailable men before news broke about her affair with Tom Sandoval.
During a new episode of Vanderpump Rules, which aired on Wednesday, March 22, James, 31, felt out of the loop as some of his costars continued to grow closer to Raquel, 28.
“Raquel is not only f—king up what I have going on, but she is f—king up everyone’s relationships,” he explained, referring to his ex-fiancée’s issues within their friend group. “She is trying to make out with [Tom] Schwartz and Katie [Maloney] isn’t happy about that. Her and Lala [Kent] in Vegas were toxic as f—k and because she is ‘perfect’ there are no consequences to her actions.”
He added: “Everyone wants to point the finger at me but let’s point the finger at her for a second.”
The California native raised eyebrows in season 10 after she expressed interest in Katie’s then-estranged husband, 40. She later hooked up with Garcelle Beauvais‘ son Oliver Saunders, who was married to Samantha Saunders at the time.
In response to Katie, 36, and Lala’s questions about her behavior, Raquel defended her personal life, telling Sandoval, 40, earlier in the episode, “I was being young and fun and single living my life and these girls literally set me up to make me seem like I am only chasing after guys they are interested in.”
The beauty pageant contestant originally joined the hit Bravo series as a guest in 2015 amid her romance with James. Raquel was later promoted to a main cast member before announcing her split from the professional DJ during the season 9 reunion.
