Vanderpump Rules’ James felt “shut out” after Tom Sandoval’s affair with Raquel

James Kennedy claims Tom Sandoval didn’t care about his feelings after he had an affair with his ex-fiancee, Raquel Leviss.

Tom Sandoval’s cheating scandal with Raquel Leviss affected the entire Vanderpump Rules cast, especially James Kennedy.

James and Raquel announced their breakup at the Vanderpump Rules Season 9 reunion, only a few months before the affair allegedly started.

When the news of “Scandoval” became public, the group supported Tom’s ex, Ariana Madix, as she dealt with her emotions.

However, James was also upset about the affair because he was friends with Tom, even though he was no longer dating Raquel at the time.

James claims Tom forgot about him after the affair

In a clip from the Vanderpump Rules Season 11 premiere posted by Bravo, James told his girlfriend Ally Lewber that he hasn’t spoken to Tom since he found out about the affair.

“Obviously, my feelings are hurt, you know, I think I’ve said that enough times to relay the message to Tom,” James explained in his confessional.

“The carrier pigeons have even told him, like, you know, ‘Remember your friend James? Yeah, well his feelings are hurt because you were having an affair with his ex and like, also shut him out from the entire group.'”

When Ally asked James if he would ever be friends with Tom again, he replied, “Friends? I haven’t heard one f*cking word from that man. He’s outrageous.”

James also mentioned that he’s seen clips online of Tom’s concerts with his band, Tom Sandoval and The Most Extras.

The Vanderpump Rules star expressed his distaste for Tom screaming Raquel’s name into the microphone and making jokes about the cheating scandal.

While the cast may have been focused on Ariana’s needs after her breakup with Tom, it didn’t seem like the group was thinking about how James felt during this time.

Although James is happy in his new relationship with Ally, he still felt betrayed by Tom for getting involved with Raquel.

Vanderpump Rules Season 11 premieres Tuesday, January 30 at 8:00 p.m. ET on Bravo.
