Raquel Levisshas been spotted for the first time since leaving her two-month stint in a mental health facility.
TheVanderpump Rulesstar, 28, was seen out for a walk in Tucson, Arizona on Tuesday as she is reportedly visiting family. Sporting an open blouse with a graphic tee and black shorts, Leviss completed the look with a hat that read, “Be a Good Person.”
Her rep told PEOPLE in April that Leviss was receiving “mental health and trauma therapy” at the center. According to an insider, the consensus now that she’s out is that “Raquel’s family doesn’t want her to film, but the cast is betting she appears at some point."
When Leviss spoke out about her relationship with Sandoval,she told PEOPLE she needed to focus on her health. “I need to take care of my health, work on self growth and take time to be ok with being alone,” she said in March. “I care for Tom and I don’t want to label anything or predict what lies ahead. Right now I need to heal.”
While some cast members, likeAriana MadixandKatie Maloney, seemingly chose to skip the Lake Tahoe trip,Scheana Shayjoined the cast for the getaway.
However, Shay’s attendancecaused some fans to questionwhether or not she had moved past Sandoval’s actions, especially since she was one of Madix’s fiercest defenders last season following his affair with Leviss.

After posting a video of their trip to Tahoe on her Instagram story, fan account @QueensofBravo recognized a familiar voice in the background. “Is that Sandoval’s voice??? All is forgiven, I guess,” the account tweeted.
This upset the “Good as Gold” singer, who quote-tweeted the original message to clear the air. “Who said all is forgiven?? We are all here for Lisa,” she wrote, referencing the show’s iconic matriarch and bossLisa Vanderpump.
Shay smiled and wrapped her arm around Sandoval, with @QueensofBravo quote tweeting Shay’s retort with screenshots of the photo. “For Lisa ❤️"the account quipped.

After the photo of Shay and Sandoval went viral, the “Shake That” singer used her Instagram Story to set the record straight. While in bed with costarLala Kent, who was also part of the Lake Tahoe trip, Shay embarked on her so-called “Instagram rant.”
“I don’t know why I feel the need to defend taking a photo with my hand like this,” Shay said, before modeling her hand in a distanced grip.
“People are so stupid. It still blows my mind that people still don’t realize we’re filming a show. And it was that girl’s birthday!” Kent, 32, responded. “What are we gonna say? Like, no?”

“We’re in a group, we’re all here,” Shay explained. “We hopped in a photo, you know what, I happened to be standing where I was standing.”
