AceShowbiz - Andy Cohen has weighed in on the cheating scandal involving Tom Sandoval and Raquel Leviss. While he was shocked by the affair reveal, the radio and talk show host claimed that he did notice red flags during Leviss' appearance on "Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen" on Wednesday, March 1, two days before news of her relationship with Ariana Madix's ex broke.
Cohen found it "odd" that Leviss said she thought Sandoval was cuter than Tom Schwartz, whom she'd previously kissed. "I looked up and said to Raquel, 'Oh you said Sandoval, hmm,' and then we moved on," Cohen said in Monday, March 6 episode of his SiriusXM show "Andy Cohen Live".
Cohen revealed that during the commercial break, Scheana Shay, who joined Leviss during the interview, asked Leviss about her surprising answer. "Scheana said to - I guess Scheana's antena was up - and Scheana said to Raquel, 'You know I only picked Sandoval, because I knew that you were gonna pick Schwartz,' and Raquel said, 'Well Sandoval has abs' and kind of shrugged, so you know that was interesting," he shared.
The father of two admitted he "didn't think twice about it," but after news broke of Leviss and Sandoval's affair on Friday, he messaged Shay to get more details on the interaction. "I thought it was odd," he stressed, without divulging what Shay thought of this situation.
Cohen also claimed that he felt "some odd energy" between Sandoval and Schwartz on their separate "WWHL" appearance. "When Schwartz was on with Sandoval on premiere night, there was some odd energy between them," he explained. "Schwartz was looking at Sandoval the entire time -almost for guidance on answers."
He said the episode led him to wonder, "When did Schwartz find out about this?" The 54-year-old author went on to say that the found the revelation "disturbing," "shocking" and "upsetting."
On the radio show, Cohen confirmed that the affair scandal will play out on "Vanderpump Rules" cameras. He also said that Leviss and Sandoval are set to attend the season 10 reunion following the affair reveal. "I do [think they'll film the reunion], yeah they're coming. I believe they'll be there, yes I do," he responded to a fan's inquiry.
