Raquel Leviss wants Bravo to show her the money! The Pump Rules star is playing “hardball” with Bravo while negotiating her season 11 contract.

Page Six reports that the 28-year-old SURver is playing “hardball” with Bravo as she negotiates her contract for season 11 of Vanderpump Rules.

“She wants to get as much money as she possibly can, so she is playing hardball,” an insider reveals.

Filming for season 11 of Vanderpump Rules is in full swing, but Raquel Leviss has yet to join her co-stars on camera. The source notes that Raquel and Bravo will have “a deal” in place by next week when the cast takes their first cast trip to Lake Tahoe.

The source insists “she will appear” on season 11 of Pump Rules. “But for the right price, she will be there,” the insider explains.

Despite the belief that Raquel will begin “filming soon,” for season 11, the source admits that she is “genuinely concerned for her well-being,” especially after being ganged up on at the season 10 reunion.

“Watching the reunion was excruciating,” the source explains. “The way the other women just completely tore her apart and essentially wished her dead. It was just a lot to take.”

Vanderpump Rules stars Raquel Levis, Tom Sandoval, and Ariana Madix

Pump Rules stars Ariana Madix, Tom Sandoval, Lala Kent, Tom Schwartz, Katie Maloney, Scheana Shay, and James Kennedy all resumed filming earlier this month.

Raquel has not seen any members of the Vanderpump Rules cast since they filmed the explosive season 10 reunion in March, which came just weeks after her months-long affair with Tom Sandoval was exposed.

Tom Sandoval and Raquel Leviss meet up after Scandoval is exposed.

Since shortly after filming the season 10 reunion, Raquel has been in treatment for her mental health.

“Raquel and her family decided months before the relationship was discovered that she needed mental health treatment and ultimately decided she would enter a voluntary facility for mental health counseling,” Raquel’s rep said in a statement in April. “Raquel was scheduled to go in pre-reunion but decided she wanted to finish her filming commitment.”

In May, Raquel and Tom called it quits on their relationship just two months after their affair was made public.

“Raquel dipped out. Sandoval is not the one for her,” an insider told Page Six at the time.

Stay tuned for more on this developing story!

Vanderpump Rules will return to Bravo in 2024.

Y'all are giving her terrible advise. There was a show before Rachel and there will be one after her. She already signed a contract. The time to negotiate is before you sign on the dotted line. She is the most annoying person on the show & nobody likes her. She should be happy they are paying her at all.

Make them show you the money, Raquel. Take it now, because in a few years, they'll be another 'hot ticket' scandal.

Bravo made her the star attraction of the ending of Season 10 and the reunion. They need her to keep the momentum going for Season 11. There is no other story line than her. She is smart to demand a very high payday. Maybe LVP can help cover the cost since she is shutting down her failing restaurants.

Make Bravo show you the money Raquel. They want you badly to appear on the season, so you do have the upper hand. They will rerun these episodes, sell ad time again and again for years, sell them internationally…they have the money to pay for this show right now. It is their Highest rated show on Bravo by a mile, just received two Emmy nominations, has won other awards recently and Raquel you appearing back next season is critical to them continuing this story arc. Bravo is always going to play cheap, especially lately, but you hold the cards here, so don’t let their executives tell you differently. Hold out for a decent pay day. It will be ugly to film. Don’t do it unless you are being compensated well.
