Rachel Lewis (formerly known as «Raquel» on the show «Vanderpump Rules») is back in the dating scene. After her widely discussed scandal with former show partner Tom Sandoval, known as «Scandal», - Rachel, 29, has found happiness with investment director Matthew Dunn. However, a representative clarified that Matthew and Rachel are only casually dating and are not in a serious relationship.
Former reality TV star publicist Juliet Harris told Entertainment Tonight that Rachel and Matthew are not putting labels on their relationship yet. The media also noted that this is more of a «casual acquaintance» than a full-fledged romance. A source also claimed that «they met through friends and are enjoying their time spent together».
Earlier this year, Rachel explained on her podcast «Rachel Goes Out» that she did not plan to date for about a year to prioritize herself.
«I won’t date for a year, and during this time, I am just focusing on myself», - she said in January. «And after that, focusing on my emotions that arise within me. What are my own needs that I need to fulfill? And not adding another person to the equation, to focus solely on myself and other people, as well as on my friends and family and people in my inner circle who are safe friends».
In February, Rachel reflected on her past relationship with Tom, 40. She admitted that she thought she was «in love» with him, but found that their «connection was not love».
«At first, you just think this person is so in love with you, adores you, and gives you all this attention», - she noted. «Before you know it, you are so emotionally attached to this person that you can’t leave. … I stayed in unhealthy relationships for too long».
In 2023, Rachel found herself in the middle of a heated fire between Tom and his then-girlfriend Ariana Madix. In March of that year, Ariana, 38, discovered a sexual video of Rachel on Tom’s phone, confirming that they were dating while he was still with Ariana. The drama unfolded at the end of the tenth season of «Vanderpump Rules».
In the summer of 2023, Bravo series participants gathered again for the filming of the eleventh season. However, Rachel did not return to the show after she went for treatment at a psychiatric facility to focus on her mental health
