Scheana Shay addressed her emotional confrontation with castmate Tom Sandoval on the Vanderpump Rules season finale, which was teased in a recent trailer.
She also suggested Tom had a “game plan” regarding his romance with Raquel Leviss, which reportedly took place while he was still with his longtime girlfriend, Ariana Madix.
In an interview with Us Weekly, Scheana addressed her confrontation about the affair on Vanderpump Rules.
“Every single thing we spoke of in that conversation [on the show] felt so important,” said the 37-year-old. “It was one of the harder conversations and scenes I’ve ever filmed, to be honest.”
While wiping away her tears, Scheana anticipated watching it back.
“That’ll be definitely hard to watch back because this was a 13-year friendship that ended not because of anything he did to me, but because of what he did to someone else and because of his actions,” she shared. “And that doesn’t align with how I live my life. It was a really challenging scene to get through. It was really, really tough.”
The star suggested Tom had a “game plan” regarding the affair.
“I know in our conversation [that] you see in the trailer, [when] he’s like, ‘I was gonna break up with Ariana regardless.’ The game plan was given to me then,” said Scheana. “I just don’t know how much of that you’ll see. He had a game plan. Her, I don’t know.”
She went on to say, “These were two of my absolute best friends, so to lose both of them at the same time [was hard] … I immediate[ly] disconnect[ed], like, we were done that night in New York. I was done with both of them … I could never see continuing a friendship after what I found out.”
Scheana added, “This is just on such a different level. I mean, this was someone who was in their home … the three of them would do stuff together all of the time. Ariana was the only one not clued into what was actually going on.”
Vanderpump Rules season 10 airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
