On Part 1 of Vanderpump Rules'Season 9 reunion on January 25, James looked back on the proposal and their engagement party, explaining, "We went through a lot, and we did it big." Although Tom was shocked by the breakup news, he couldn't help but chuckle. "I'm sorry for laughing," he said. "I was just thinking of the big engagement."
Like many viewers at home, Andy Cohen admitted to Tom, "I'm kinda thinking about all the money and time you spent." However, Tom had no regrets about his significant contribution to the "Rachella"-themed proposal. "It was worth it," he declared. "Tenfold."
On the October 19 episode of Vanderpump Rules, Tom opened up about why he offered to pay so much for the proposal. "James and I split the $25k because nothing brings me more joy than to help a friend accomplish a dream that they have."
As James explained on the January 11 episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, he is still happy with his choice to put together such a grand proposal. "I don't regret anything in my life," he said. "Everything happens for a reason, so no regrets." However, there was one thing he wanted to clarify about the eventful evening: "I spent more money than Tom Sandoval did in total, OK?"

Sandoval
Thomas Anthony Sandoval is an American model, actor, television personality, musician, and businessman. He is a cast member on Bravo's reality television series Vanderpump Rules.
It was later revealed during an episode of VPR that Tom Sandoval helped pay for the elaborate engagement. "James and I split the $25k," he explained, "because nothing brings me more joy than to help a friend accomplish a dream that they have."
While both Sandoval and Leviss confirmed they were still in love during the June 7 reunion episode, he revealed in December that she had cut him out of her life for good. "We were best friends," Sandoval lamented on the Dec. 7 episode of the Two T's in a Pod podcast. "It's heartbreaking to go through.

Vanderpump Rules DJ James Kennedy has been pretty angry with his old buddy Tom Sandoval since Scandoval blew up in March 2023. James felt betrayed that Tom, whom he considered a close friend, was caught cheating with James' ex-fiancée Rachel Leviss.
“[Then] in January, he came to me and told me that he was in love with Raquel.” Leviss later admitted that she and Sandoval had sex several times in Mexico. "I was like, 'We can't see each other.
Essentially Tom has manipulated me and had me under his love spell," read Leviss. The former Vanderpump Rules star expressed that Sandoval, 40, had also turned her against her family by telling her that her mom didn't have her best interest at heart and was "gaslighting" and "manipulating" her.
Finally, James revealed if he thinks Sandoval and Raquel are going to last. "In a weird way, I hope so ... As a couple, if they survive and go through it, I mean, f--king hats off," he responded. "I wish them both luck and I wish them the best."
After co-owner Tom Sandoval's affair with Rachel Leviss became known, patrons started boycotting the restaurant that he opened with Tom Schwartz. Ariana Madix's supporters flooded Yelp with negative reviews. The Toms were at risk of losing their investment. But nearly a year later, the bar is still open.
What is Raquel Leviss' Net Worth? Raquel has a net worth of $500,000, according to Celebrity Net Worth, no doubt partly thanks to her elevated profile since Scandoval.
Lala basically has passive income down to a science. In addition to her role on VPR, the reality star owns her own beauty brand, Give Them Lala Beauty. (FYI: celebs have beauty brands because they can make a lot of cash from them).
Does Sandoval Regret Spending Thousands of Dollars on James and Raquel's Engagement? Following James Kennedy and Raquel Leviss' recent breakup, Tom Sandoval shared how he feels about splitting the bill for the former couple's $25k engagement night.
The answer is simple — yes. And his musical career is actually going better than ever. James performed at the 2022 Imagine Festival, where he opened for Kaskade, which he talked about in an April 2023 episode of Vanderpump Rules. "It's kind of surreal," James said during the episode.
She reportedly “began scrolling and saw their history of inappropriate texts.” A source claims the affair has been going on for “upwards of six months.” “She was completely blindsided by this; devastated doesn't even scratch the surface of how she feels,” the source says.
