Raquel Leviss is ready to speak her truth, but not until next year.
"My name is Rachel Leviss," said Leviss, 29, in the trailer for "Rachel Goes Rogue" released on November 30. "This may not be the comeback you were anticipating, but in January, you'll hear my perspective, and it might just surprise you. I hope you'll tune in."
The iHeartMedia podcast won't be available until January 8, 2024. As described, Leviss intends to "reveal all" after keeping silent "long enough."
Leviss garnered attention earlier this year for her relationship with Vanderpump Rules costar Tom Sandoval. It was confirmed in March that Sandoval had ended his long-term relationship with Ariana Madix following the news of their romance. As a result, many of their Bravo costars expressed support for Madix and ended their associations with Sandoval and Leviss.
The podcast description reads, "I will reveal the truth, dispel falsehoods, and share secrets I've been keeping. Yes, I've made mistakes. But what you think you know may not be the reality. It's time to view 'REALITY' from a different perspective. You might be surprised by what you learn."
The podcast's press release states that Leviss will share her journey of navigating and growing "through a challenging year of public scrutiny." The podcast will be produced by iHeartMedia and Bethenny Frankel.
Following the exposure of the cheating scandal, Leviss has chosen to step away from the public eye and Pump Rules, prioritizing her mental well-being. In August, Leviss joined Frankel on her podcast to talk about the aftermath of the scandal.
“The errors that I’ve made on camera live on forever. And you mentioned something about the allure of participating in reality TV and the way that they always dangle that carrot in front of you,” she said at the time. “Like [they say], ‘You need to tell your side of the story, otherwise it’s gonna be written for you.’ And that’s terrifying.”

Leviss revealed during the interview that she considered returning for season 11 of the Bravo series but suggested that she ultimately decided not to make an appearance.
In addition to prioritizing herself, Leviss ended her relationship with Sandoval. After he sent her a birthday message in September, Leviss openly stated that she had blocked him on social media.
Rachel and Tom have been estranged for almost three months, according to a source speaking exclusively to Us at the time. She made the decision that cutting Tom out of her life completely was the healthiest option, and as a result, ceased all communication with him.
The next month, Leviss chose to remove a few physical mementos of Sandoval from her life. She put her well-known lightning bolt necklace (which Sandoval also wears) and her hoodie from his restaurant TomTom up for auction.
Leviss wrote in the description of the necklace, "This necklace symbolized my commitment to someone who once had control over me. Not anymore." He also mentioned that the proceeds from the sale would benefit NAMI (The National Alliance of Mental Illness).
