On Bravo’s Hot Mic podcast, Pump Rules star Scheana Shay breaks down into tears over how difficult Scandoval was on her to host Alex Baskin.
Scheana Shay insists that Ariana Madix wasn’t the only victim in the fallout from Tom Sandoval and Raquel Leviss‘ eight-month-long affair.
According to the Pump Rules OG, her best friend Ariana will NEVER know how difficult Sandoval was on her as a person.
“I don’t know that Ariana will ever understand how hard this was on me personally because, yes, it didn’t happen to me. I wasn’t cheated on, but there was a lot that he did do personally to me,” the 38-year-old Pump Rules executive producer and host of Bravo’s Hot Mic podcast, Alex Baskin.
She continued:
“I lost weight after the Scandal. I was in court after the scandal. I was fighting rumors online about my own husband to the scandal.”
The Pump Rules star explained that it’s been difficult for her to tell her story post-Scandoval since the scandal wasn’t about her, yet the drama directly affected her.
“I mean, it really did a number more for me, but I don’t think a lot of people realize. I Was the person next, mostly directed by all of this, but I’m not allowed to feel anything because it’s not about me, because it’s only about her. So me,[I’m] struggling with how can I tell my story while still keeping it about her because it’s not about me, but it kind of is about me.”
Naturally, Pump Rules fans had a lot to say about the clip and Scheana’s comments.
“This is the most Scheana thing Scheana has ever Sheana’ed,” one fan quipped.
A second fan commented, “The way her and Lala [Kent] made money off the scandal and did all kinds of interviews. But are now so jealous of Ariana,” while a third added: “We need Stassi [Schroeder] back so she can put Scheana in her place pls.”
“Such an attention seeker this is the cringiest thing I’ve ever seen,” a fifth fan wrote while someone else commented, “All I heard was “Me.”
“Always the victim, even in narratives that aren’t about her!” another fan commented.
Someone else wrote, “I can’t. She is so thirsty for attention it’s pathetic. And I love that even on a podcast she makes sure they’re filming from her “good” side.”
Another fan added: “Both Lala and Sheana did NOT pass the vibe check.”
