Ariana Madix REACTS to Rachel Leviss' Bethenny Frankel Interview

[@EllysaE]

It takes a special special kind of AWFUL to be friends, best friends with someone are pretend to their face day in day out while stabbing them in the back is absurd. Absolutely absurd. There is something deeply deeply wrong with Rachel.

[@fzrms7954]

[@darrylskylar8757]

I’m REALLY shocked at the way Bethenny victim blamed Ariana. Two wrongs don’t make a right and Ariana did absolutely nothing to deserve what Ariana and Sandoval did to her. Bethenny completely forgot how she lived with her ex husband when divorcing him and openly talked about how he was torturing her. Rachel deserves to have her say, Ariana doesn’t deserve to get trashed by Bethenny though!

[@laurayne2818]

No she didn't. She was empathetic and Rachel said Ariana was always sweet to her. I don't believe they were real close.

[@darrylskylar8757]

@@laurayne2818 that’s not true. Bethenny said that they had a fake relationship and it was not that big of a deal since Rachel and Ariana weren’t best friends. Bethenny also talked about Ariana still living in her house with Sandoval which I extremely hypocritical given that Bethenny lived in her apartment with her ex husband when they were divorcing. Bethenny even detailed all the horrible things her ex did, like locking her dog up in their storage room and dumping out trash on the kitchen table etc…. Bethenny even put a lock on her bedroom to keep her ex out when she wasn’t at home. Why is it bad for Ariana to stay in her house while her lawyer and financial advisor work out the best way to unload herself of the house while not speaking or associating with Sandoval, when Bethenny did the same thing under far worse conditions? Ariana doesn’t even speak Sandoval’s name much less speak to him. Why is it so bad for Ariana to stay in her house but not bad when Bethenny does it? Bethenny is a hypocrite and she completely victim shamed Ariana and even excused Rachel’s behavior by saying “they all do it.” Wrong is wrong and it’s crazy that people are excusing side chicks, because that is what Rachel is, a side chick.

[@kazzityangel]

Not true at all but okay! Prior to this incident Raquel was the sweet girl who was literally bullied by her boyfriend who cheated and a lot of the girls. They were always calling her dumb, saying she didn't have a back bone and I'm sure that did numbers on her self esteem. Hurt people hurt others! Whilst, I don't agree with what she did because she hurt Ariana in the worst way. The reality is in a way what she said makes sense, she got tired of being the pushover, people pleaser and started going after who and what she wanted. Of course Tom wasn't hers to take which is the problem.

Bethany acts like she's only spreading positivity while being the most negative person ever. She acts like she doesn't care but she reallllly cares.

That last interview of Rachel's was hilarious the girl said they're talkin about come and clean and how she didn't like lying why lying about it the whole time. My favorite part was saying she'd never been to Tom's hometown and bravo put a picture up of her with Tom in his hometown. And that interview was supposed to be Rachel finally telling the truth.

[@tracypark1088]

Wouldn't say i was ever a big fan of Ariana but NO ONE deserves what Tom & Rachael did to her, she welcomed Rachael into her home and helped her through her break up with James etc only to be betrayed in the worst possible way. As for Tom he's just a wannabe, he's a master manipulator and a really ugly person. I'm glad Ariana is getting these opportunities to make money off the back of this, she should grab everything she's offered because that's her ultimate revenge, she's now more well known and probably worth more money than Tom & that will be killing his narcissistic soul

[@feliciaecheverria]

Bottom line, Bethany did not do her homework. Rachel wouldn't know the truth if it hit her in the face. The cast members who profited off the scandal did so because they seized the opportunity. Rachel could have done the same.

[@sj8175]

Ariana has used this situation to catapult herself into commercials and and everything under the sun. I think it's okay that someone other than Ariana can also speak about their experience. Tom and Rachel are both allowed to move on with their lives. It's been long enough that no one should be villianized for sharing their perspective and betheny shouldn't be hated for given Rachel the platform to do it.

[@jakestroll6518]

Are you a mistress or something? Ariana was very clear that she has no issue with Rachel doing interviews, she just wants them to be truthful and to stop rationalising the betrayal or minimising the pain she caused. Ariana got handed bitter lemons in a very traumatic way, imagine seeing a video of your partner and your friend after months of defending their friendship as innocent? She took those bitter lemons and made lemonade but just because your victim was resilient doesn’t mean you get to villanize her for it. Coz we all know y’all would still be bashing her if this betrayal had sunk her into depression. You sound like a mistress so I bet you’d be saying “he cheated because she’s a pathetic sad sack”.

[@chilltimes8480]

I thought Bethany did a great interview. This isn't a popular opinion, but i could see Bethany's point about her psychiatrist saying Rachel was abused in the reunion... and theres a difference between admiting ones wrongs. No one should be told they should be violated with a cheese grater.. So sad this whole thing.

[@jakestroll6518]

Being told to go sit on a cheese grater is the mildest thing to expect when you betray a friend for 7 months and in her own house at that. Especially just 3 weeks after she’s traumatised by the video of you pleasuring yourself to her partner. Rachel is a 28 year old woman, I’m sure she knows most people would have done more than just call her a few names over 20 minutes. Also, Betthany is a liar but even assuming that a therapist said that then it’s clear he lacks context. Infidelity is considered psychological abuse by the APA. It crushes self esteem and the ability to trust others and even to trust your own judgement. Here where it’s being done to you by your friend and partner of 9 years, it’s soul crushing. Not just life ruining but potentially life ending. Many people who go through being discarded by a partner and a friends without support end up unaliving themselves. The idea that the mistress is a victim for 20 minutes of a deserved verbal tongue lashing is nuts. 28 year olds can take consequences of their behavior without being treated like tiny wittle babies.

[@jenifersantinole]

Rachel abused Ariana for 6 plus months by acting like her friend whine opening her legs on the daily to the man Ariana was with for 9 years. Sticks and stones…her actions hurt and Ariana used words sorry she can kick rocks in this new victim narrative she is trying to create

[@lilgamergirl7745]

Regardless of what infidelity happened..Ariana and the other cast members are abusive. Scheana to the point of physically assaulting her. Bethenny did a good job of highlighting that. The cast are not good people and she doesn't deserve the extreme amount of abuse she is receiving.

What extreme amount? People moved on from this months ago. The only ones who stuck with it are the mistresses who see themselves in her and have taken up her cause, campaigning for her to return to the show and then being mad that affairs aren’t rewarded with boosted pay, lol. Rachel deserved consequences, she got them, now she should go away if her mental health is that delicate. She shouldn’t be out here spreading lies about her victim just because she’s jealous that Ariana rose like phoenix from the hell that she and Tom had planned out for her. If she lies about Ariana, Ariana has a duty to herself to correct it.

To me, Ariana is an Alpha Female. Trying to convince us, she is a Damsel in Distress, all Sweet & Innocent is laughable. She was the bossy one, she called all the shots, & would throw out the insults & disdain towards Tom, whenever he did something she didn't like. And she knows it... Their relationship was dying, and Tom wanted out. But, I think he was afraid of her, & for her mental health struggles.

[@kathyvanyo4428]

Saying that Bethenny was so insensitive toward her for being AFRAID of marriage, & UNCERTAIN she wanted children, is BS too. She made it very clear, she didn't want to ever get married, or have children, with no sign of FEAR in her eyes. She is acting like such a victim, Boo Hoo, Poor Me, look what happened to me. How could they do this to me? Yet, when Kristen asked her if she was hooking up with her boyfriend. (LIVE-IN BOYFRIEND) Ariana looked her in the eye & without hesitation she said NO, knowing she was lying! She didn't care about Kristen's feelings, or about what she was doing to her. When reunion time came around she was snuggled in Tom's arms, while Kristen was clearly hurting & asked them to stop, but she was un-phased by it & snuggled all the more. Yet, when Andy directed Rachel to sit with Tom, she barked NO!

[@kathyvanyo4428]

Trust me, I know the pain of being cheated on. For me, it went on for 8yrs, in a 9yr. marriage. I had no idea... It was devastating, because I loved my husband, & we had a 2.5yr. old. It took me awhile to process the pain, but I didn't want to be angry. Especially for my son, who loved his father dearly. Ariana put this World Wide Hate Campaign against Tom & Rachel in motion, & tries to minimize the psychological effects it has on both of them. I'm afraid, she will have to answer to Karma, in the future, for doing it. Because it's core purpose was to hurt, harm, & get revenge, it was based out of pure hatred...

Bethnay is wrong for minimizing the impact of this affair and trivializing Ariana’s pain. How can Bethnay as a woman say that she doesn’t find anything wrong with the affair?? She’s gaslighting the real victim and also allowing Rachel to get away w her actions while victim blaming Ariana. This interview was so biased toward Rachel, full of Bethany’s agenda, and so immoral. Rachael should learn from her mistakes and the pain she caused and grow to be a better person but she will never reach that growth if you excuse her actions, let her play the victim, minimize her role in the affair, and not encourage her to take accountability for her part. Rachel cannot deny her eagerness to start and continue the affair, her nearly year long deception, the direct involvement and role she chose to play in this scandal. But what a disappointment, Rachel is trying to distance herself from her actions and the poor choices she committed to for so long. Her reasons prove to be selfish and entirely self serving. Had she not learned nor regretted a thing? It’s sad that Rachel still doesn’t fully recognize what she did or realize the full impact and real harm she brought onto her former friend after her so called treatment at the wellness facility. There were actual real painful life consequences for Ariana all bc of Rachel’s affair, her mistreatment and betrayal of Ariana’s trust and her deceptive, cruel, and malicious actions. It’s sad that Rachel has to been encouraged or led at all to accept that her actions were wrong and to come face the repercussions of what she did and who she hurt. She should already know these things and confront her mistakes, her bad intentions, and the pain she caused and brought upon others through her deceitful and immoral actions. She should feel remorseful. She caused another woman so much pain, suffering, and turmoil. Rachel is not taking responsibility at all. Bethnay as an interviewer is not a honest person; her line of questioning was self serving and full of motive. What this interview revealed is that Bethnay is manipulative, has her own agenda and that Rachel is full of excuses and hasn’t changed at all and is also being used by Bethnay in this interview. Rachel still has a lot of maturing and growing to do as a human being. The wellness facility was suppose to help her but it did little bc she came out as a victim instead of fully owning what she did without excuses and truly recognizing the error of her ways-that she destroyed her friend’s life and relationship. And Ariana should be turning lemons into lemonade! Don’t hate a girl for it, that is exactly what she should be doing and we should celebrate her for it. She could have been in shambles, broken and destroyed by the affair but Ariana is doing her best to turn this into something positive for herself! That’s the way it should be!

you do know these are the highest mortgage rates in america in the past 20 years? no one's buying homes and they have their current mortgage. these people are not real housewives, they prob make good money combined but that doesn't mean you can up and buy your own place BEFORE selling your current home (if it's not at a loss) in SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA one of the most expensive housing markets in the WORLD. Just a dumb comment in general, clearly you don't understand money.

[@nonna8162]

@@precooked-bacon Your point is “clearly“ moot when Ariana has already stated that she’s made over $1 million just since the scandal. It seems to be that would be enough to make something happen in order to get yourself into a mental safe space from the man who devastated and ruined your life. If someone has pushed you to the point where you would end your life if someone broke up with you, then, getting away from them would and should be your first priority. But hey, thanks for the financial advice, I mean, you have completely changed my world this morning. If you’re not an accountant or a financial advisor or a CFO for some large corporation, well, you should be because you seem to know every thing.

[@priscilladiaz5824]

Isn't this girl making enough to move out of her house with Tom. This all feels so made up. I Watched the Raquel interview it's so good and the perspective. I've always thought bravo profits off people that don't care to look like clowns, because they sell themselves for profit but they live in a bubble. Raquel was just a pawn and not meant for realty TV she's not narcissistic enough and the way Ariana acted on the reunion it was abusive and she's being celebrated. I hope this show finally gets cancelled like it was supposed to be

[@maybe4003]

Rachel reminds me of a scammer. She is good at getting people to feel sorry for her and to like her and tell lies. In the meantime, she is up to something.

[@classyconversationswithrho344]

She deserves to be back on the show! Only if she is healthy enough, of course. You are correct! She does have what it takes. Without her there wouldn't be a VPR! I think we keep forgetting that she was totally duped! And from what I hear her and Ariana were not besties. Somebody has to stand up for this girl! Don't forget she got threatened her family was threatened she went through an awful lot and was the only one not to benefit from it all! Give her a break! We are all human and we all make mistakes! I don't know if one person on this Earth that are perfect! Neither of us are! How cruel people are, its just crazy! Remember back when you made mistakes how would you feel if people were harassing you and your family? Try to put yourself in another person's shoes before you're so mean and judgmental about another person! Not everybody is strong and able to brush off criticism especially from the world! I just dislike bullies! So much that's why I've been sticking up for her for the last several months! At least she is trying to get better!!!!!!!!! As for reality TV isn't everybody calculating backstabbing and mean? I'm not saying it's right but it seems that readings are all Bravo wants! My humble opinion. Rachel knows that I did send her messages on Instagram in support of her.

[@name...........n]

Ariana is profiting and living with Tom still...stop being mean and negative but I know it won't happen Ariana.

[@maybe4003]

She’s not being negative. She’s expressing sadness at Raquel’s lies or the fact that Raquel is so easily influenced to be able to say that they were never friends when it was so obvious that they were.

[@Trinket985]

It’s hard to feel sorry for Ariana being that she and Tom’s relationship was basically non existent. Also, if she loved Tom sooooo much, how could she snap back so quickly and begin dating someone else? I think Tom and Rachel fell in love. You cant stop those types of feelings. I do believe 5000% that Tom should have broke it off with Ariana when he began having feelings for Rachel. LaLa, Bethenny is not exploiting Rachel, she’s showing her respect, compassion and support.

Because you weren’t there sometimes it’s hard to quit a relationship specially when you’re anxious, Why judging her for saying she dated after, maybe it was her own way to think about anything else, wasn’t serious, and ya Tom should’ve broke it off and Rachel should’ve step away. You can’t control feeling but you can control your action

[@PaladinesAngel]

She took a chance on a chap after getting slammed by her boyfriend and one of her good friends who didn’t even have the decency to wait until he was out of the relationship. Ever heard of rebound guys. Well some of them turn into better guys that you fall for. Tom was already well checked out of the relationship when Ariana found out and was barely there, because he was always in Rachel’s bed. So it’s not like Ariana was missing the intimacy he wasn’t around to engage in. How long is acceptable do you think when you have been cheated on before you can try and find a good person to fill the space? I didn’t realise it was written somewhere that there’s a minimum amount of days to remain single. If there are someone should surely have sent them to Tom and Rachel because they definitely don’t seem to have known about it either.

[@itzallmadeup]

Arianna is a distasteful person. She plays victim when she neglected Tom's intimate advances long before he cheated. When you make someone feel unloved, usually they leave or cheat. He tried to talk to her about it for YEARS back when Raquel was with James. How long can you push someone away with no sex but allow Lala to eat your box? What a terrible person 🙄

Fact is Ariana only had sex with Tom 4X in the last year of their relationship And James didn't have sex with Rachel for last 2 years of their relationship IMO Ariana and James are both super abusive

[@MelW033]

I agree with it wasn’t that big of a deal because nobody was married and no children were damaged. Nobody needed to be as brutal as they were and the death threats from people were just evil. That show is all about these scandals and they all have been guilty of lying and cheating. I feel for Ariana who didn’t deserve to be betrayed. She was to trusting of Tom who she knew was a cheater and a liar when they got together. Kristen seems to have forgiven her for being the third party in her relationship with Tom that broke them up for good. I hope Ariana will be forgiving of Rachel in her healing because the only villain I see in this situation is Tom. I don’t think any of these women should hate each other over a narcissist like him.

Nobody believes Ariana’s fake reality TV facade. Ariana slept with Tom while he was with Kristin, but let’s keep this amnesia going and pretend like Ariana is a saint😒

[@raeseay]

So the whole cast of Vanderpump rules can spend 2 seasons trashing Rachel but she can’t spend a couple of podcasts defending herself. So tired of poor Arianna and misunderstood Tom.

[@MamaTthaOG]

Ariana is a perpetual victim who was Toms mistress, that’s how she got with Tom. Then she moved immediately into Kristen & Toms shared apartment and treated Kristen like complete crap and did not care one bit how much pain Kristen was going through, and I’m talking about real pain that was so real it was embarrassing, not the type Ariana puts on. No, Kristen wasn’t perfect, but Ariana should be saying “I’m not a victim…and actually i was wrong for what I did to Kristen, and I see that now, and I’m sorry. I treated her horribly”. Heck at least Raquel has tried to get help and work on herself. The majority of this cast are 40 yr olds still thinking and acting like teenagers, with no growth in sight. So Ariana, you have a lot of apologizing you need to be doing yourself!

Is correct on that Bethany is correct on that she's not the first person that's been cheated on or had an affair or a man that checked out and slept with somebody else as well as a female doing in that so you know Tom has stated this before your relationship was more business than it was an actual look up replacing you're just you're just milking it for a check

[@Ash.Crow.Goddess]

And let me just say: Lala was right. Raquel/Rachel is... not bright. At all. Her...naivete... is what got her in trouble with Tom. She was too clueless to see the signs. Add into that a person fresh out of a relationship, and wanting to believe it because you're falling in love, it was just a perfect storm. But NONE of that excuses it. She kept it secret, so she understood what she was doing wasn't right. She still knew what she was doing and she knew it was wrong. That's why you have to be smart about these things. Don't let a man in a relationship manipulate you. Because no one is going to forgive you when all the secrets start to see the light of day.
