If Lisa Vanderpump actually did pay Raquel Leviss to have this affair for scores, then Lisa is the brand new Suze Orman since she made a smart enterprise funding.
TMZ says that Tom and Raquel had been “annihilated by everybody,” even Andy Cohen and Lisa Vanderpump, through the taping. However not everybody bought to pull Raquel reside and in individual. VPR castmess Scheana Shay wasn’t allowed to tape similtaneously Raquel due to the restraining order state of affairs. Raquel claims that after Scheana discovered concerning the affair, Scheana punched her within the eye, which Scheana denies. Raquel took out a restraining order towards Scheana. So mainly, Scheana was sealed shut in her hair and make-up trailer all day, lacking out on the motion. However in a bizarre flip of occasions, when it was time for Scheana to affix the forged, Raquel had Andy serve Scheana with papers. The papers had been paperwork stating that Raquel was dropping her restraining order towards Scheana. Scheana’s lawyer, Neama Rahmani, doesn’t purchase that for a second, labeling the try and squash the meat as only a stunt that has no authorized impression, based on TMZ:
Scheana’s lawyer, Neama Rahmani, tells TMZ … “Rachel had Andy ‘serve’ Scheana with a doc through the reunion, however the papers haven’t any authorized which means.”
He says the docs had been a request to dismiss a grievance or a civil lawsuit — however Raquel had already requested a everlasting restraining order, “which is one thing utterly totally different.”
Rahmani says there’s no approach for Raquel to drop the present non permanent restraining order forward of subsequent week’s listening to, both … and notes the docs handed to Scheana weren’t filed with any courtroom.
He additionally went on to inform ET:
This was simply one other public relations stunt by Rachel and her group. If Rachel actually wished to make this go away, she would come out and publicly say the ‘punch’ by no means occurred and he or she is sorry for all of the hurt she prompted Scheana, Ariana, and her different buddies.”
On the opposite facet of the enjoying subject of the “she stated, she stated” sport, Raquel informed ET that her legal professional is, in truth, submitting paperwork to dismiss the RO and never shifting ahead to take it from non permanent to everlasting.
“I can affirm that my legal professional took my case off the courtroom calendar Wednesday and is submitting the suitable paperwork requested by the courtroom as we speak to dismiss the TRO from shifting ahead after the twenty ninth.

She continues, “The TRO was supposed to supply a cooling-off interval after I used to be punched however I didn’t wish to proceed with the everlasting RO nor did I wish to trigger Scheana additional agony and stress.”
On prime of that, TMZ claims that the reunion bought so messy that two forged members almost bought right into a tussle and needed to be separated. It’s not identified which two forged members, however actually, it may very well be any of them. In an Instagram Story, Andy known as the expertise “actually confrontational,” “emotional,” and that “nothing was left unsaid.”
And I’m certain that Andy has already slid into President Joe Biden’s DMs to ask to be awarded a Purple Coronary heart for “surviving” this reunion.
