New year, new Rachel.
Rachel “Raquel” Leviss said she is walking into 2024 a new woman after being involved in one of the biggest cheating scandals in Bravo history — Scandoval.
“2023 hands down has been the hardest year yet,” she wrote on Instagram Sunday alongside a smiling selfie.
“My life had become completely unmanageable and I was so far down the rabbit hole of making bad decisions that I NEEDED help,” she added, seemingly referencing her months-long romance with her “Vanderpump Rules” co-star Tom Sandoval, who was in a nearly 10-year relationship with Ariana Madix.
“I’m so blessed I was able to get the help I needed. Now, I finally feel like I’m seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.”
Leviss, 29, said she vows to “be a better friend” to those close to her.
“To those that have stood by me through my darkest days, I will always remember and cherish you. Eternally grateful for a second chance. Here’s to an epic 2024! 🦋,” she concluded.
Fans flooded the former beauty queen’s comments section with words of affirmation.
“Onward and upward baby!! ❤️🔥 I’m so proud of you. Happy New Year!” wrote one user.
“Each of us is more than the worst thing we’ve ever done. Proud of your growth! 💖,” added another.

“We all need to be rolling into 2024 with this kinda smile and light,” commented a third fan.
“Good for you Rachel. You have been through so much. Don’t worry about the haters!! They’re just jealous. I wish you all the best for 2024 ❤️❤️,” said a fourth.
Leviss’ 2023 turned upside down in March after Madix, 38, found out about her affair with Sandoval, 41, after going through his phone.
Following backlash from the scandal, Leviss — who started using her birth name Rachel instead of Raquel following the drama — entered a mental health facility and left “Vanderpump Rules.”
Leviss is no longer close friends with anyone from the cast.
In fact, her former castmates Scheana Shay and Lala Kent recently released a Christmas single, slamming the “Rachel Goes Rogue” podcast host.
“It’s Christmastime, and I’m tryin’ to push off the naughty list / You catch my drift?” Shay, 38, rapped in one verse. “I wanna be an angel, not a Rachel, bitch.”
