After Rachel alleged that Sandoval was "rewarded" for Scandoval -- aka their affair -- and was offered producer credit for Season 11, Bravo released a statement in response to her claim.
Bravo has shut down Vanderpump Rules star Rachel (formerly Raquel) Leviss' claims that Tom Sandoval was offered a producer credit on the series in the wake of Scandoval.
During Part 2 of her interview on Bethenny Frankel's podcast Just B with Bethenny Frankel, Rachel said she and Sandoval had a discussion about contract negotiations for Season 11, which comes after their secret, months-long affair was exposed earlier this year and fans watched the drama unfold on the Season 10 finale and three-part reunion.

Rachel Leviss Claims She and Ariana Madix 'Were Not Best Friends' As She Reflects on Scandoval
View Story"He's not technically a producer, he's been on the series from Day 1, Season 1. I don't know if I’m even able to disclose this information, but he did tell me during negotiations for Season 11 that he was offered a producer credit for Season 11," Rachel claimed.
However, the 28-year-old said this didn't sit right with her.
"So, I think he was being rewarded for the Scandoval of it all. To me, that's kind of gross because it seems -- it makes me skeptical," Rachel told Bethenny. "Was this really just something that was fabricated for this end result?"
Only a few hours after the podcast episode dropped, Bravo released a statement, in which it denied Rachel's claim.
"Tom Sandoval was never offered a producer credit on Season 11, and had absolutely no creative control over any editing during any season of Vanderpump Rules," the statement read.
Sandoval hasn't publicly addressed Rachel's claim.
