Andy Cohen is as shocked by all the Vanderpump Rules fallout as we are!!

The Bravo boss spoke up about the drama happening right now after it was just revealed VPR star Tom Sandoval had been going behind (now-ex) girlfriend Ariana Madix‘s back in a months-long affair with co-star Raquel Leviss. And on Monday, Cohen took to his SiriusXM radio show, Andy Cohen Live, to get VERY real about what will happen next on Bravo following the bombshell affair reveal!!

For one, the Bravo head was shocked at how the affair allegations came out just as VPR has been airing on the network. Using his radio show to try to grapple with the controversy, Cohen began:

“First of all, when you watch the rest of the season of Vanderpump Rules with the overlay of knowing that Raquel and Sandoval — what’s happened with them and what was possibly happening then — it’s really shocking. Even Wednesday night’s episode, you’re not going to believe it. Watching it with this overlay, there’s this moment between Ariana and Raquel where you see where their friendship is, which is good. You won’t believe.”

Looking back now, though, he admitted that last week brought him some “odd energy” in the form of Raquel’s most recent appearance on Watch What Happens Live.

The 28-year-old went on the Bravo aftershow with co-star Scheana Shay. During their sitdown with Andy, the duo played a game. In it, Cohen asked which Tom was cuter: Sandoval or fellow VPR star Tom Schwartz. Leviss said at the time that she thought Sandoval was cuter. At first, Cohen acknowledged it and moved on:

“I looked up and said to Raquel, ‘oh, you said Sandoval, hmm,’ and then we moved on.”

But while Andy didn’t think much more of it, Scheana clearly did!!

Brock Davies‘ wife grilled Leviss about her answer during the very next WWHL commercial break, as Cohen explained during his radio show on Monday:

“Now, during the commercial break, Scheana said to — I guess Scheana’s antenna was up — and Scheana said to Raquel, ‘you know, I only picked Sandoval, because I knew you were gonna pick Schwartz.’ And Raquel said, ‘well, Sandoval has abs,’ and kind of shrugged. So, you know that was interesting. And again, I didn’t think twice about it.”

Damn!!!

Ch-ch-check out that story via Andy’s SiriusXM talk (below):

Andy also shared so much more on the radio, y’all!

For one, he explained how gobsmacked he is that the VPR cast as a whole keeps coming with more and more (and more, and more) drama:

“One of my first reactions to this news was that I cannot get over how this group, it’s like they only screw within their own group. This is a self-feeding ecosystem that has been going. It is a regenerating ecosystem that feeds within itself. A starfish. And it’s been going on for years and years, even before we met any of them on the show.”

There’s apparently one person to credit all that with, too: Lisa Vanderpump.

Andy spoke highly of the show matriarch’s television vision and ability to read the reality TV tea leaves:

“I’ve got to give credit where credit is due as we all are so sucked into this group of people: and that is to Lisa herself, who saw this group, and she was so adamant to us at Bravo at the time as we were developing shows. We were early, early into Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and she was coming to us, and she said, ‘I have something special with this group. You don’t understand.’ And it had been going on already for years. … So, Lisa Vanderpump saw it, and she was right.”

Amen!

Still, he also wanted to caution overzealous fans from getting too crazy over these shocking affair allegations. These are all (of course) real people with real lives, as the WWHL veteran host explained:

“These are real people. People have to remember that. These are real people. These are real people, this is a real relationship, and you do have to keep that in mind, even though for us watching on TV, it’s a TV show and a soap opera in a way. It’s weird, but these are real people.”

And Andy also delivered deets about what’s to come!

He confirmed that “the cameras were up” this weekend to catch initial reactions and follow-ups after the affair allegations first broke. Then, he also confirmed how Bravo fans are going to be able to see this all play out as Vanderpump Rules runs its course over the next few months:

“When you’re watching the episodes this season, it just makes that far more surprising, I think, and layered, and shocking. You may have heard rumors that the cameras were up over the weekend. Yes, the cameras were up. The cameras have been up on everyone getting reactions and filming. So, you will see this play out in a sense this season of Vanderpump Rules, before the reunion. There you go.”

And they haven’t even taped this season’s reunion episode yet! So the raw emotion that Raquel, Tom, and especially Ariana are no doubt feeling will make it to air very soon!!

In another SiriusXM clip from Monday, Andy confirmed the network is shooting the VPR reunion show in “about two weeks,” and went on to add:

“We’re shooting the reunion in about two weeks, so, this is a reunion that’s going to be — I’m girding my loins.”

We’re girding our loins, too, Andy. Mostly, we’re just shocked to learn how much Raquel has been girding Tom’s loins in recent months, and vice versa. Ummm just saying!!!
