James Kennedy Introduced His New Girlfriend, Ally, on Season 10 of 'Vanderpump Rules'
Updated Feb. 8 2023, 2:46 p.m. ET
In Season 9, Vanderpump Rules star James Kennedy raised the bar for reality TV proposals. Nearly five years after the two first met, James popped the question to his longtime girlfriend, Raquel Leviss, at their makeshift version of Coachella.
His lavish proposal was followed by an equally extravagant weekend at a winery in Santa Ynez, Calif., to celebrate their engagement with their families and friends. But their happily ever after didn’t last long. James and Raquel announced their decision to split up in late 2021.
Since then, James has introduced a new love interest to Vanderpump Rules fans. But who is his new girlfriend? Keep reading to learn more about her and their relationship timeline.
Whose is James Kennedy's new girlfriend and when did they start dating?
James Kennedy's new girlfriend is Ally Lewber. The two began dating at the very end of 2021 or early 2022, mere weeks after James and Raquel announced their split.
“James met Ally recently and they have been dating for a few months now,” a rep for James told Us Weekly in March 2022. “He’s super happy and excited to see what the future holds.”
James first hinted that he was dating someone new in a February 2022 episode of the Give Them Lala podcast. “I’m kind of seeing someone,” he teased at the time.
When asked if his significant other would appear on Vanderpump Rules, he said he wasn't sure. "I do like this girl, I really do. I don’t know," he explained. "We’ll see what happens. I can’t ask any girl to do that.”

On March 15, James and Ally went Instagram official when they posted a series of sweet snaps from a trip to Tulum, Mexico. A week later, they made their red carpet debut when they attended the 2022 iHeartRadio Music Awards.
Since then, they've been all over each other's social media pages, sharing photos from a vacation to Jamaica, attending the MTV Movie Awards, and even competing on Wild 'N Out.
James appears to have met Ally's family over Thanksgiving 2022, and helped her ring in her 27th birthday this January.
What does James Kennedy's girlfriend, Ally Lewber, do for work?
According to her website, Ally Lewber is "a spiritual astrologer, model, and entertainment industry professional living in Los Angeles." Ally — a Capricorn sun, Libra moon, and Pisces rising — says she found herself fascinated by the cosmic universe as a child. Today, she's dedicated to "empowering her clients through natal astrology, offering insights into their personal birth charts and planetary alignments to help promote a deeper sense of self-love and acceptance."
Ally Lewber will appear in Season 10 of 'Vanderpump Rules.'
In the trailer for Season 10 of Vanderpump Rules, viewers learned that Ally would be appearing on the show. "I do think that Ally is the one," James can be heard saying. "I'm going to put some babies in her one day."
In a different scene, however, it seems as if things are not all perfect in their relationship. "I like you better when you're not drinking," Ally tells James.
What will happen between the couple this season, and will the rest of the cast welcome Ally with open arms?
