Raquel Leviss ‘contacts FBI after receiving death threats’ stemming from Scandoval with fellow Vanderpump Rules star Tom Sandoval
Raquel Leviss reportedly received death threats.
The 28-year-old Vanderpump Rules star and her family contacted the FBI after receiving the hostile messages, according to TMZ.
The California native has kept a low profile since her affair with fellow VPR star Tom Sandoval, 39, who Lala Ken called “narcissistic,” came to light in March.
Some of the threats have been graphic in nature, with threatening missives online and over the phone threatening to ‘rip you from limb to limb’ and ‘throw the body away’, it was claimed.
The outlet spoke to a source close to Raquel who said: “It’s understandable that people hate her for Scandoval, but to elevate that hate to the point of threatening Raquel and her family is going overboard and disturbing. “

Host Andy Cohen said, “It was the first time most of them had seen each other” since the scandal became public.
“This is the first time viewers will see Ariana take on Raquel. And you know, I was glad I got to sit down with all three of them one-on-one.
Before news of the alleged threats became public, the Watch What Happens Live host said of the upcoming confrontations at the reunion: “I think it’s really getting results.”
“Because I think what people want is retaliation and they want these people to face what they did, and they’re going to get it.”
“I think the reason everyone’s so invested is that they want to see some sort of settling of scores (with) Tom and Raquel, and they’re going to get it,” he hinted during the coming showdown.
“They want to see them face off against Ariana. They want to see them pitted against their friends. And it was incredibly confrontational. What can I say ?
