Raquel Leviss is selling her “symbolic” lightning bolt necklace as well as her TomTom sweatshirt and donating the proceeds to a charity.
Vanderpump Rules alum Raquel Leviss announced that she will be parting ways with her infamous lightning bolt necklace and a pair of bedazzled TomTom sweatshirts.
The 29-year-old purchased the lightning bolt necklace to match a similar necklace worn by her then-lover, Tom Sandoval, during their months-long affair last year.
Raquel Leviss announced the news in a selfie Instagram Story video on Tuesday:
“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.”
“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.”
The former SURver explained that she has put the items up for sale on eBay because she no longer wants to “have them in my possession” since she “will never wear them again.”
If you recall, Raquel Leviss purchased the 14K gold lightning bolt necklace by Caitlin Nicole Jewelry for $765 while filming season 10 of the hit Bravo show.
“This necklace was symbolic of my devotion to another person who I allowed to have power over me. He no longer does,” she wrote on the eBay listing.
“I can’t rewrite history, but I can use something from my darkest days towards a good cause,” she wrote.
The current bid for the TomTom sweatshirts is over $8000, while Raquel’s lightning bolt necklace has a current bid of over $2000.
Pump Rules will return to Bravo for season 11 in 2024.
