Raquel Leviss has filed for an order of protection against Vanderpump Rules co-star Scheana Shay amid all of the Scandoval craziness — and she used her real name Rachel to do so.
Page Six has confirmed that Raquel filed the paperwork on Tuesday, March 7 but it is unclear whether a judge has actually signed off on the order of protection. The outlet has reached out to reps for both Raquel and Scheana but has yet to hear back with a statement.
The news of an order of protection comes after the two reportedly got into a “heated confrontation” following their appearance on Watch What Happens Live back on March 1. According to reports, this is when Scheana found out that Raquel had been having an affair with Tom Sandoval behind Ariana Madix’s back.
“After taping Watch What Happens Live, Scheana and Raquel went out to drinks with friends,” an insider tells Page Six. “At one point in the night, Scheana lost Raquel and then found her outside of the bar on the phone with Ariana, who Scheana could hear was bawling.” Raquel allegedly came clean which is when the two got into a confrontation. (Scheana is best friends with Ariana.)
Ariana had reportedly found sexually implicit messages and videos from Raquel on Sandoval’s phone, and this is the evidence she used to have Scheana confront Raquel in New York City after WWHL.
According to other recent reports, Raquel had her lawyer send letters to the cast of Vanderpump Rules asking them not to share the videos due to California “revenge porn” laws, so between the letter and this order of protection, it is clear Raquel’s strategy is more of a legal one at this point.
