Katie Maloney’s friend Kristina Kelly shared insight behind their ‘girls trip’ with Raquel Leviss and Lala Kent, claimed a producer showed Raquel “footage” of them “talking s**t,” to make them look like “bullies.” She also alleged they “edited” Rachel’s crying scene, and shared why she was actually upset.
During the Vanderpump Rules trip, the women blasted Raquel for packing galaxy lights. In another scene, which was shot before the news of Raquel’s affair with Tom Sandoval broke, Lala indicated that she wouldn’t trust Raquel with her man before Raquel clapped back by calling out Lala’s single status.
Speaking on Stassi Schroeder’s “Straight Up With Stassi” podcast, shared via @allabouttrh on Instagram, Kristina revealed some behind-the-scenes insight.
“We got word that [Raquel] was shown footage of us … talking s**t about her,” said Kristina, who claimed it was a “producer,” and the women became “really really upset about it.”
Kristina suggested this “chang[ed] the narrative,” giving Raquel the “storyline” that her costars were “bullies.”
She also claimed the show “edited” a scene of Raquel crying in bed, making it appear as if she’d just “eavesdrop[ped]” on the “mean girls,” though she was actually crying because “Ariana’s dog passed away.”
The ‘friend of’ alleged Raquel was “wasted” that evening, “all over the place … [and] spilling food.”
“She could barely stand up,” said Kristina.
Stassi then shaded Raquel for packing the galaxy lights, and indicated she had a “baby’s room.”
