Tom Sandoval Says It Was ‘Immature’ and ‘Thirsty’ of Raquel Leviss To Block Him on Instagram

McKinley Franklin editor Tom Sandoval can’t remember the last time he and Raquel Leviss were in communication, but he tells Variety he surely wasn’t expecting her to block him on Instagram Tuesday.

Sandoval and Raquel Leviss have been at the center of one of reality television’s greatest controversies since it was revealed that he cheated on his long-term partner Ariana Madix with Leviss, whom they both co-star with on “Vanderpump Rules.” The deemed #Scandoval went on to draw record-breaking ratings for the Bravo series (even landing the show its first Emmy nominations) but at a clear cost.

At the Los Angeles premiere for Season 2 of “Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test,” Sandoval tells Variety that he was “just wish[ing] her a happy birthday” and that Leviss taking to her Instagram stories to share that she blocked him was “immature” and “thirsty.” “When somebody said she blocked you, I was like ‘Oh, okay, whatever,’” he shared. “Maybe her parents were going to dock her allowance this week or something, but to post that on her story is pretty childish.” “I just wished her a happy birthday,” he continued. “I didn’t think she had a lot of people reach out to her, so I wanted to.

I mean, if she’s working on herself, I think it’s a little immature — it’s a little thirsty — to post that.” Sandoval notably joined the “Special Forces” cast at the height of #Scandoval’s media takeover.
