A resurfaced interview from the upcoming star of The Valley spoke out against the number one guy in the Vanderpump RulesĀ group.

Kristen Doute has alluded to abuse at the hands of James Kennedy.

*All accusations of James Kennedy being abusive are alleged*

Never forget:

Kristen thanked Jax Taylor‘s wife for being the only person from the VPR cast to have her back.

After the season 7 Pump Rules reunion, Kristen gave a “major shout out to our princess/bride-to-be, Brittany Cartwright for being the only friend of mine … the only person on that panel that stood up for me the entire reunion against James Kennedy.”

“That was the battle I knew I was going to have to fight. It wasn’t something I was looking forward to because James Kennedy – I hate. I don’t even like saying his name.”

“J.K. is no longer part of my life, but it was obviously something we did film,” elaborated the Bravo TV personality.

“I did reveal [what I was pissed about].”

“It didn’t air and I’m grateful for that because I just don’t think it’s something – unless I’m going to be stood up for by everyone of my friends that knows the truth.”

“They kind of skated past it … which I was kind of grateful for. Unless it was going to go the way I wanted it to go I didn’t want it to air at all.”

“What’s the point if he’s still on the show?”

“If he’s still going to be around, then what’s the point?!”

Rachel rumors:

It was alleged that James is the reason his ex-fiancĆ©, Rachel [formerly Raquel] Leviss‘s nose became crooked after her rhinoplasty. Rachel and James claimed he accidentally bumped her nose while going in for a kiss.

The mistress behind Scandoval even alluded to abuse when describing how she ended their engagement while filming the VPR9 reunion.

Rachel explained, ā€œI felt like that was the safest way to break up withā€ James. ā€œI didn’t go into the details ofĀ whyĀ we were breaking up and why I couldn’t be with him anymore.ā€

ā€œIt was also at a time when I didn’t want to tell the world because I didn’t want to ruin his life.ā€

For the record, James’s current girlfriend, Ally Lewber, went on the record saying she is “good.”

Ally is safe and “we’re happy.”
