Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix keeps warm in a pink sweatshirt as she leaves a nail salon in LA

Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix responded to her co-star Raquel Leviss’ bombshell interview while leaving a nail salon in Los Angeles on Wednesday. 

The reality TV star, 37 – who’s been dealing with the fallout following the end of her nine-year-relationship from Tom Sandoval, 39, after his cheating scandal with Leviss, 28 – was asked by a photographer what she thought about Leviss’ new interview.

‘I don’t pay attention to any of that,’ she responded while getting into her car, ahead of Vanderpump Rules’ highly-anticipated reunion tomorrow.

Madix looked cozy in a pink sweater, which read, ‘Something About Her’ while stepping out of the salon with a red manicure.

The Florida-born beauty paired the ensemble with white sweat pants and a matching white purse, as well as comfortable brown UGG slippers while braving the rainy day weather.

Madix – who is reportedly set to join Meagan Good in a new Lifetime movie – wore her platinum blonde tresses pulled into a messy bun, and opted for smokey eyeshadow.  

The outing comes after Leviss did not hold back in a new interview as she detailed how her affair with Sandoval began, that Scheana Shay allegedly left her with a permanent scar and that her apology to Madix was not accepted.

She also put an end to the rumor that her affair with Sandoval started out after they had a threesome with his then-girlfriend Ariana.

‘No that’s not true,’ she told a reporter on Wednesday.

It comes after a source told Deux Moi that ‘Sandoval, Ariana and Raquel had a threesome and Sandoval continued to pursue Raquel after that.’

Adding to the speculation was the recent Vanderpump Rules trailer, in which Sandoval’s friend and business partner Tom Schwartz stated, ‘Open relationships are f*****g tough’, even though the pair denied that they had an open relationship prior to their split.

During her interview Leviss shared she is ‘hanging in there,’ before noting that she plans on taking ‘accountability’ for her actions and is ‘completely prepared to do that.’

She went on to state that she and Madix have ‘talked on the phone’ and that she ‘apologized to her over text but she did not receive it very well.’

When asked by a photographer what Madix said, Leviss looked bashfully as she replied: ‘I prefer not to say.’

The TV personality then detailed how her and Sandoval’s relationship, behind Madix’s back, began after it ‘started off as a friendship and turned into something more.’

As for whether her kiss with Sandoval’s best friend and business partner Tom Schwartz was a ‘coverup’ for their affair, Leviss stated shut down that fan theory.

‘No, I genuinely had an interest in Tom Schwartz. There’s a genuine curiosity there. It wasn’t a coverup,’ she said.

Now that his infidelity has been exposed and nine-year romance with Madix is over, Leviss said she doesn’t ‘know where’ their relationship ‘is going.’

‘We’re just kind of trying to get through these next steps, make amends and hear everyone out,’ the former pageant queen.

Leviss also noted she had ‘been advised to take time off social media’ and understands there are consequences to my actions as she navigates an overwhelming amount of online backlash.

It comes after Madix threw some major shade at Raquel on Tuesday. The reality TV beauty was spotted out on a coffee run with a friend when she was asked if Leviss had apologized to her since the news broke.

She fired back: ‘I don’t know who you’re talking about.’

Leviss and Sandoval’s ‘full blown love affair’ was exposed earlier this month to the shock of Madix, who has since ended her nine-year romance with the restaurateur.

Last week, Madix broke her silence on the matter last week in a lengthy Instagram post last Wednesday, where she admitted to being ‘devastated and broken’ but grateful for her supporters.

She wrote: ‘hi. where to begin? i want to express my most sincere gratitude for the outpouring of love and support i have received from friends, family, and people i’ve never even met in the last two weeks.

‘when i have felt like i couldn’t even stand, you all have given me the strength to continue and seen me through my darkest hours. to say i have been devastated and broken is an understatement. however, i know that i am not in this alone.’

Madix continued: so many of my closest friends are also grieving this loss right now and reeling from this betrayal on so many levels. i am so f***ing lucky to have the best support system in the world and i hope i can repay every single person for the love you have shown me.

‘what doesn’t kill me better run. love, ariana’

Madix also has plenty of screen time on the new Season 10 of Vanderpump Rules, which started airing before it was reported that Sandoval was cheating with Leviss.
