Ariana Madixis not lettingRaquel Levissoff the hook following hermonths-long affairwithTom Sandoval.
The 37-year-oldVanderpump Rulesstar visitedThe Viewon Thursday and shared chatted about Sandoval, 40, and Leviss, 28, followingVPR’s jaw-droppingseason 10 finale.
Though Madix’s last several months have been"tumultuous"since shediscovered her ex was cheatingwith the beauty queen on March 1 andendedthe couple’snine-year relationshiptwo days later, she was still able to keep it relatively light withViewmoderatorWhoopi Goldberg.
At one point, theSister Actstar suggested Madix seek repayment from Leviss for “going out with you and hanging out with you.”
“When I was picking up the bar tab, yeah,” agreed Madix. “I should definitely send a Venmo request.”
Prior to findingintimate footage of Leviss on Sandoval’s phone, Madix thought he was simply going through a midlife crisis, she said onThe View.
“It was something that I saw that I wanted to be there for him while he was going through that, thinking that on the other side of him wasa wonderful life togetherif we could make it through this hard time,” Madix explained.
And though she regularly looked through the TomTom co-owner’s phone, she said during her appearance on Wednesday’sWatch What Happens Live with Andy Cohenthat “he was very good at concealing his double lifeand hiding all of the evidence.”
Though she toldAndy Cohenthat she was “picking up on [something] going on with him mentally,” she toldThe Viewpanelists that when she would bring up the issues, Sandoval would convince her she was “being silly or being suspicious over nothing.”

Madix isn’t the onlyVanderpump Rulesstar who might come collecting.
On the season finale, as Madix’s friends came together to support her, costarScheana Shaywas also blindsided when Leviss — who was named Rachel at birth — served her with a restraining order for an alleged assault shortly after Madix told Shay, 38, about the affair the same night the “Good As Gold” singer was in New York City filmingWWHLwith Leviss.
Leviss ultimatelydropped the restraining order, and Shay has consistentlydeniedthat she punched her costar. But whenVPRcameras picked back upto film the fallout of the “Scandoval,” she was emotionally distraught at the prospect of having to go to court against a former friend.
“You gave her a place to live,” noted costarKatie Maloney.
“That I paid for,” said Shay, 38.

Looking ahead, Madix teased the show’s"confrontational"season 10 reunion.
Bravo dropped the trailer for the reunion last week, and Madix said onThe Viewthat she’d essentially “blacked out” during the grueling day in which she called Sandoval and Leviss"diabolical, demented, subhuman."
On Thursday, she also reveal that not only did bombshells drop when theytapedthe reunion on March 23 — secrets about her ex-boyfriend and her former best friend’s betrayal were still surfacing after the cameras went down.
“There were things that I found out after I filmed that they were still lying about on that day,” Madix said. “So I almost wish that somehow I could have found that out beforehand and I would have been able to confront them on.”

And though she’s spent the better part of the last two months reflecting on recent events, Madix is now focused on moving forward.
