NextImg:Raquel Leviss claims IG was ‘hacked,’ dedicates it to mental health awareness

Raquel Leviss’ Instagram is getting a new look amid her mental health treatment.

The “Vanderpump Rules” star’s rep posted a statement via Stories Tuesday, claiming Leviss’ team has taken over the account after it was hacked.

“With the help of Instagram it has been reset and is now managed by Raquel’s team for the next month while she continues treatment,” the statement read.

“MAY is MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS month,” her spokesperson continued.

The reality star’s team is running the account for Mental Health Awareness Month.

“Raquel has requested all of the posts focus on raising awareness for mental health organizations, advocates and removing the stigma surrounding treatment.”

The social media upload marked the first of Leviss’ since she checked into a mental health facility in Arizona last month in the wake of her and Tom Sandoval’s months-long affair coming to light.

“Raquel and her family decided months before the relationship was discovered that she needed mental health treatment and ultimately decided she would enter a voluntary facility for mental health counseling,” the former pageant queen’s rep told Page Six in a statement in April.

“Raquel was scheduled to go in pre-reunion but decided she wanted to finish her filming commitment [on March 23].”

One week later, Sandoval clapped back at claims that the 28-year-old is lying about her treatment and actually spending time at a “spa.”

He confirmed to TMZ that Leviss is “in a mental health facility” and “doing great” there.

The bar owner claimed, “Whether she decides to tell you where that is after the fact … that’s where Raquel is. No visitors, no friends, no family, no phone, no nothing.”

Sandoval recently went to a luxe wellness retreat himself and subsequently blasted Miraval Arizona for outing his stay via Instagram.

“They claim to be a refuge for wellness and betterment, but that is obviously false,” he wrote. “They’d rather feed into the negativity and spectacle that has engulfed my life.”

As Leviss remains off of social media, Sandoval has continued posting frequent updates, from his nature getaway to his bracelet-making sessions.

Besides the Season 10 reunion, which has yet to air, the cover band frontman has only sat down for a single interview with Howie Mandel about cheating on Ariana Madix.

The Schwartz and Sandy’s co-owner called Madix, 37, “blind” to his infidelity, alleging he tried to break up with her before the affair, since dubbed Scandoval, made headlines.

As for Madix, the actress has been living her best life since their split, filming a Lifetime movie in Canada, kissing a physical trainer named Daniel Wai at Coachella and attending the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

In her statement about the scandal, Madix called herself “devastated and broken” but concluded, “What doesn’t kill me better run.”

“Vanderpump Rules” airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
