Summary
In 2023, Bravo’s “Vanderpump Rules” proved what we kinda already suspected: we all love a really good scandal. When news broke earlier this year that VPR cast mates Tom Sandoval and Raquel Leviss were having an affair, it was an enormous cultural phenomenon that became known by one word - “Scandoval.” The drama and the headlines were impossible to escape, and we all got to watch it play out on the small screen with some of the juiciest reality TV ever. So we had no choice but to make Scandoval #3 on our list of the "Gifts That Keep on Giving" in 2023.
