‘It’s gonna be interesting!’ Vanderpump Rules villain Tom Sandoval makes cheeky quip as he returns to film season 11 of hit show – but WON’T reveal if he’s spoken to ex Raquel Leviss
Tom Sandoval made a cheeky quip as he returned to action on the set of Vanderpump Rules for the first time since production on season 11 began this week – after his affair with Raquel Leviss.
The restaurateur, who delivered a bouquet of flowers to boss Lisa Vanderpump at her now shuttered restaurant Pump, told photographers he had already returned to work.
‘I’m filming right now,’ he said on Thursday, one day before his 41st birthday.

When asked if he had been in touch with Leviss, 28, with whom he had been carrying on an affair behind former girlfriend Ariana Madix’s back, the TomTom co-founder replied, ‘I can’t comment on that.’
