Raquel Leviss selling ‘symbolic’ Tom Sandoval lightning bolt necklace, donating proceeds to mental health charity

Hasta Leviss-ta, baby!

Raquel Leviss announced that she will be selling her infamous lightning bolt necklace and TomTom sweatshirt – both of which she wore in the midst of her affair with Tom Sandoval last year.

“I am currently in the process of letting go, letting go of the things that no longer serve me anymore, and as I’m cleaning out my closet, I have found a few items that are a little bit triggering,” she said in a selfie Instagram Story video on Tuesday.

The former “Vanderpump Rules” star, 29, explained that she’s putting the items up for sale on eBay — where the prices continue to climb as the bidding will last all week — because she no longer wants to “see them” or “have them in my possession,” since she “will never wear them again.”

“In honor of World Mental Health Day today, I am creating a fundraiser all of the proceeds will go to NAMI, which is the National Alliance of Mental Illness, and it’s all about like creating a better mindset, changing your environment, so that you can set yourself up for success,” she continued.

The former SURver purchased the 14K gold lightning bolt necklace by Caitlin Nicole Jewelry for $765 while filming season 10 of the Bravo show earlier this year, which she got to match Sandoval’s necklace towards the beginning of their affair.

“This necklace was symbolic of my devotion to another person who I allowed to have power over me. He no longer does,” she wrote in the description of the eBay listing.

The current offering is over $1,000 at the time of publishing and quickly rising.

The second package included two hoodies from TomTom – the restaurant and bar Sandoval and Tom Schwartz co-own.

Leviss confirmed that she is in fact parting with the “infamous three tone topaz on black TomTom hoodie” she boldly wore to BravoCon last year before her bombshell affair was exposed to the public.

Two months after Leviss wore the controversial look, Sandoval dressed up as Leviss in that same outfit for Halloween amid their secret affair.

It’s currently racking up offers for nearly $3,000 for the pair of bedazzled sweatshirts.

The “Vanderpump Rules” alum also listed two TomTom sweatshirts.

Leviss even confirmed in the listing that she gifted the same style hoodie to Andy Cohen on “Watch What Happens Live” just hours before her and Sandoval’s affair — dubbed Scandoval — was exposed in March and “everything blew up in my face,” she wrote.

She also included a black hoodie with black rhinestones and will sign the sweatshirt “upon request.”

“I can’t rewrite history, but I can use something from my darkest days towards a good cause,” she wrote.

Shortly after Scandoval was exposed, eagle-eyed fans noticed Leviss and Sandoval had similar lightning bolt necklaces, but neither of them confirmed it until the explosive Season 10 reunion in June.

Leviss explained at the time that she bought it, because it “was significant to who he became in my life.”

The auction ends next Tuesday, Oct. 17.
