As someone who has followed Vanderpump Rules closely over the years, I can’t help but feel a mix of emotions as I reflect on the latest developments between Tom Sandoval, Raquel Leviss, and Ariana Madix. It’s heartbreaking to see the betrayal, pain, and public humiliation that Ariana has had to endure once again. Her trust was shattered yet another time, leaving her feeling angry, hurt, and understandably, wanting answers.
Scandoval continues to be played out in the courts.
Rachel “Raquel” Leviss filed a lawsuit against Tom Sandoval and Ariana Madix in February for various reasons including revenge porn. In response, Tom has counter-sued Ariana, alleging that she accessed explicit content of Raquel on his phone, which led to the public revelation of their affair.
According to court documents obtained by TopMob News, Sandoval accuses Madix of gaining access to his cell phone without his consent and examining personal files, such as videos and messages between him and Leviss. After discovering the relationship infidelity, Madix is alleged to have copied this content and shared it with both Leviss and other individuals without Sandoval’s approval.
According to the court documents, Sandoval, 41, alleges that Leviss, 29, suffered damages following their affair being exposed to the public, as she stated in her lawsuit. He believes that if these damages were indeed inflicted upon her, then they were at least partially caused by Madix’s intrusion into his personal phone and data. This invasion of privacy constitutes “oppression, fraud, or malice,” as Madix acted with the deliberate intention to harass, harm, or annoy Sandoval.
Because Madix, age 39, is alleged by the lawsuit to be fully or partly liable for Leviss’ injuries, the suit demands that Madix pays “in full or in part” the amount that Sandoval may be obligated to pay as a result of damages, judgments, or other awards granted to Leviss.
Additionally, it aims for a court decision on who is responsible for paying any damages owed to Leviss and a clear statement from Madix and Sandoval regarding their respective liabilities.
We’ve attempted to get a response from the legal representatives of Madix, Sandoval, and Leviss regarding the ongoing situation, yet have yet to receive any feedback from them.
As a dedicated follower of the situation, I would express it in this way: I was dismayed to learn that Sandoval’s lawyer, Jordan Susman, released a statement condemning my actions towards Lara Jean Chambers (Sandoval’s real name) in an interview with Us Weekly. However, I wholeheartedly disagree with the characterization of my behavior as “tormenting.” Instead, I believe that any actions I took were necessary and justified given the circumstances. It is unfortunate and regrettable that Sandoval continues to use such language to describe my actions towards her.
The declaration added that Sandoval knew about the mutual access they had to each other’s devices throughout their relationship.
“According to Susman, if the Tom Tom co-owner and his partner had their preference, it would be against the law for someone to find out about their infidelity. The fact that Mr. Sandoval shifted from pleading for forgiveness to accusing Ms. Madix of his misdeeds is telling.”
In her filing with the court in February, which TopMob News acquired then, Leviss stated that Sandoval had secretly recorded videos of her without consent and Madix had shared these private recordings. She listed eavesdropping, revenge porn, invasion of privacy, and intentional infliction of emotional distress as the grounds for her complaint.
I’ve come across a document that alleges Sandoval secretly recorded explicit videos of Leviss while she was in a private state, unaware and without her permission. It’s important to note that there might be additional videos beyond the two that have been made public.
According to the document, Leviss has learned and trusts that Madix acquired at least two unauthorized recordings of Leviss. Madix then shared or exhibited these videos to others, all without Leviss being aware or giving approval.
“At a minimum,” the filing stated, “Madix circulated the illicit videos to herself and Leviss.”
A year after the public revelation of Rachel from “Rachel Goes Rogue” podcast’s affair with Sandoval, a lawsuit was initiated against her.
If you’re interested in what transpired before and after that fateful day that dramatically affected the Vanderpump world, continue reading.
Following Tom Sandoval’s breakup with co-star Kristen Doute, Ariana Madix became a new addition to the cast of “Vanderpump Rules” in its second season. During that period, Kristen accused Tom and Ariana of having an affair while she was still involved with him. In response, Ariana famously quipped, “I’m more intelligent than you. I’m more attractive than you. Move on.”
Tom and Ariana each refuted the accusations. However, Tom later confessed that they had shared a kiss in a pool during their time in Las Vegas.
In the second season reunion, Tom and I (as your lifestyle expert) openly acknowledged our budding romance. We’ve been spending a lot of quality time together lately, and things have been going wonderfully. On the very same evening that this episode was broadcasted, Ariana and I both decided to share this exciting news with our Instagram followers by making our relationship official on social media.
As an obsessed fan, I can’t help but share this juicy detail from season three of Vanderpump Rules. Kristen boldly declared that a lady had contacted her via Instagram, asserting that she had been intimate with Tom while he was in Miami with both Jax Taylor and Tom Schwartz. Intrigued and infuriated, Kristen brought this woman to SUR to confront the couple about these allegations. However, despite our fan’s best efforts, Tom and Ariana seemed unfazed and unconvinced, with Tom vehemently denying any infidelity on his part.
Following an encounter with DJ James Kennedy at a New Year’s Eve bash, Raquel Leviss, a beauty pageant contestant and student, first appeared on “Vanderpump Rules” in the show’s fifth season premiere. Two years later, the duo cohabited together, despite allegations from SUR employees that they had previously hooked up while James was still dating Raquel. At the time, James dismissed these accusations. Subsequently, Raquel joined the “Vanderpump Rules” cast as a regular in season nine after she started working at SUR as a waitress.
Tom and Ariana purchased their initial residence as a couple in Valley Village, California. At last, they left behind their old West Hollywood apartment where the air conditioning and microwave couldn’t function simultaneously without triggering a power failure.
I was thrilled as a devoted fan when I heard that the couple successfully bought a magnificent five-bedroom, five-and-a-half bath property boasting an impressive 4,500 square feet. This exquisite farmhouse-style residence, priced at over $2 million, is now ours to cherish, as reported by Bravo TV.
At Coachella, James proposed to Raquel with a carefully planned event filmed by Bravo and broadcasted in October.
At the famed Empire Polo Fields of “RACHELLA” during Friday night’s event, James popped the question… And I happily agreed, I’m thrilled beyond Coachella Valley proportions. James likewise shared the news on social media, expressing, “My soulmate, in response.”
During an episode of VPR, it came out later that Tom Sandoval had contributed towards the expensive engagement. He shared, “James and I divided the $25k cost because there’s no greater pleasure for me than helping a friend achieve their cherished dreams.”
Five years after they started engaging, James and Raquel called off their engagement unexpectedly, only a week following the filming of the season nine reunion.
After being together for five wonderful years, we realized that our goals have become different. Therefore, we made the difficult decision to end our engagement. Although our feelings for each other are strong, we no longer share the same love. We wish nothing but the best for one another and kindly ask for your positive thoughts during this time.
Raquel later revealed why she chose to end their relationship.
She expressed during the podcast episode that her family and her partner were not getting along well, leading her to contemplate difficult holiday seasons ahead. If they had a child, she worried about the future divisions, ultimately deciding she didn’t want that situation.
James confirmed his relationship with Ally Lewber on Instagram in March 2022 and she has since appeared on the show.
About a month ago, after Katie Maloney and Tom Schwartz publicly announced their separation following a 12-year relationship, news broke out that I saw Schwartz locking lips with Raquel at Coachella.
As a lifestyle expert, I’d like to clarify something that might have caused some confusion. Contrary to any rumors circulating, I myself didn’t attend Coachella. I hope this sets the record straight for those who may have mistakenly believed otherwise.
At the music festival, Raquel was present and shared pictures on Instagram. In one of those posts, she is seen next to Tom Sandoval and Ariana. The caption for her selfie with Sandoval reads: “Feels like I’m on an island”
Despite the fact that it was Scheana Shay‘s special day when she exchanged vows with Brock Davies in a grand wedding ceremony in Cancun, Mexico, news about a romantic encounter between Schwartz and Raquel at the event took center stage. According to reports and footage from the upcoming season 10 trailer, their friendship had transformed into something more playful post-wedding.
Schwartz shared with Erin Lim Rhodes of TopMob News in October, “We have a strong bond now. Raquel and I have grown quite close. I admire her immensely. I’ve discovered new aspects of her character that I wasn’t aware of before…I didn’t know Raquel could be so hilarious and clever.”
During the continuing disagreement between Raquel and Katie over Raquel’s relationship with Schwartz, Raquel’s choice to don a TomTom sweater at BravoCon on October 17 raised some eyebrows.
Raquel shared on Instagram that she wore her TomTom sweatshirt during BravoCon’s third day primarily for its comfortable feel. Additionally, she wanted to show support for both Toms and urged people to visit their booth for more merchandise. Expressing her joy in friend support and comfort, she included the hashtags #sueme and #numberonetomstan.
During Halloween, Sandoval donned a disguise as Raquel at BravoCon. He put on a sweatshirt, a blonde wig, and sunglasses for the occasion. In an Instagram post, he uploaded a picture of himself in costume with the accompanying text, “Raquel really needs to quit dropping by TomTom, it’s becoming quite awkward.”
Ariana clarified the rumors suggesting she and Tom have a non-exclusive relationship, as hinted at in the provocative Season 10 preview.
She expressed on Twitter after the sneak peek was released, “We don’t share an open relationship. I’m not that flexible about this, I believe that was clear.” Moreover, she clarified, “Being bisexual doesn’t equal being polyamorous.”
In the sneak peek, it was revealed that Raquel had a connection with Tom Schwartz, as she acknowledged, “I really like Tom Schwartz quite a bit.” The upcoming episode also featured Raquel kissing Garçelle Beauvais’ son Oliver Saunders and going on dates with frequent cast member Peter Madrigal.
On March 3, a shocking announcement was made in the Bravo community: after nine years of being together, Tom Sandoval and Ariana had ended their relationship. An informed source shared with TopMob News that filming was ongoing among the cast at that time, suggesting that viewers can expect to witness this unfold on the current season (the 10th) of the Bravo series.
After finding out that Tom and Raquel had been secretly seeing each other for months, Ariana was heartbroken. Her friends, Scheana, Katie, and Kristen, visited her to offer support. In a show of solidarity, Kristen brought flowers and wine, documenting their emotional reunion on Instagram Stories with the caption, “I stand with Ariana. This is happening right now.”
I, being an avid fan and fervent supporter of Tom Sandoval & the Most Extras, had the immense pleasure of attending their electrifying performance in Anaheim, California, later that very night.
During the performance, Tom was met with cries of “Cheater!” from the crowd as he walked on stage, according to a TikTok clip. Ignoring the jeers, Tom reacted when someone called out “Ariana,” replying into the microphone, “We adore her.” An onlooker reported to TopMob News that the audience also hurled the term “Douche” towards him.
As a lifestyle expert, I’ve observed many people going through challenging times, including the recent news about Ariana and Tom’s separation. While some may have assumed that Ariana had left their shared home based on the speculation swirling around, I can exclusively share with you that, according to Tom’s representative, she hasn’t moved out yet.
I, Tom Sandoval, felt compelled to speak out on Instagram on March 4th, addressing the criticism my Schwartz and Sandy’s restaurant employees had been facing in the wake of recent news.
I believe that expressing apologies and acknowledging someone’s emotions towards us is crucial for maintaining healthy relationships. However, it’s essential to draw a line between personal matters and those close to us, such as friends and family. In this situation, the person wrote on Instagram, asking for understanding and space from their anger and disappointment, while also requesting that others, including Tom Schwartz and loved ones, be excluded from the situation. This was likely a deeply personal issue, and involving others unnecessarily could only worsen matters. The individual’s life experience may have taught them that privacy and respect for boundaries are vital during difficult times.
Tom continued by expressing that “they were blameless in this situation,” and then he apologized, “I deeply regret that my colleagues Greg, Brett, Schwartz, and our team members have been negatively impacted because of my actions. I intend to relinquish control temporarily for the sake of my employees and partners. I require some space to handle other matters. Please accept my apologies.”
On March 7, Tom expressed his deepest apologies to Ariana in a heartfelt Instagram post. He acknowledged making mistakes, acting selfishly, and making careless decisions that caused her significant and public pain. Most importantly, he regretted inflicting such trauma upon someone he cares deeply for.
“I can’t begin to fathom the devastation this situation has caused for Ariana and those close to us,” TomTom’s co-owner expressed with regret. “I deeply sympathize with her pain. My greatest remorse is that I let Ariana down, unintentionally disappointing not only her but also our dear families and friends.”
He sadly acknowledged that things didn’t turn out as he had hoped, expressing deep regret for his actions. Moving forward, he planned to focus on self-improvement, recognizing the ongoing need for personal growth.
As an obsessed fan, I can’t help but share my thoughts after the recent turn of events. Only a few hours had passed since Tom made his public statement, and Raquel swiftly followed suit with an apology to Ariana, published on her Instagram on March 8th. In her own words, she expressed:
As a lifestyle expert, I’d say, “I’ve been doing some introspection lately and have realized that I’ve been relying too heavily on others for emotional validation. I’ve made the decision to see a counselor and explore the roots of my codependent behaviors and addiction to love. I’ve recognized that I’ve prioritized unhealthy intimate connections over my own well-being, sometimes at the expense of others. It’s not been an easy realization, but I’m committed to making positive changes. I’m taking steps to learn healthier ways to connect with others and prioritize my own happiness.”
In an open conversation on “Watch What Happens Live” with Andy Cohen on March 8, Lisa Vanderpump, Tom and Raquel’s supervisor, expressed her shock over unexpected news. She was left speechless, using the phrases “gobsmacked” and “flabbergasted,” emphasizing that she hadn’t anticipated it and neither did anyone else.
One possible paraphrase for “LVP mentioned that the most astonishing aspect of the scandal was their relationship had been a well-kept secret for a long period” or “LVP revealed that the most surprising detail about the scandal was their affair had been hidden from everyone for an extended time.”
Lisa expressed her disappointment and shed many tears upon learning that Ariana appeared to be the one who had been betrayed in their relationship, with Raquel seemingly taking on the role of the casual partner. This is unfortunate.
Tom Schwartz clarified to TMZ on March 11, quelling the curiosity of many fans, when he learned about his friend’s infidelity with Raquel.
He expressed his disappointment about the harm it caused to our business, but remained hopeful that calmer minds would prevail and he would continue to persevere.
Regarding Sandoval’s current state amidst the criticism, he commented, “I believe he’s holding up, but there’s deep sadness within him. He feels terrible and understands why. To some extent, he may view himself as worthless. He acknowledges his mistake and the situation is truly unfortunate.”
At an interview on “Watch What Happens Live” on March 15th, Katie Maloney expressed that she wasn’t completely surprised by the Tom-Raquel infidelity incident. However, the specifics of the situation left her in a state of shock.
“Katie added some news about Ariana following their split. According to her, Ariana is doing well and focusing on self-care. I met with her recently, and she seems optimistic and enthusiastic about the future.”
Approximately two weeks after falling quiet on the issue, Ariana addressed the split through an Instagram update on March 15th.
In the past two weeks, I’ve been deeply moved by the overwhelming kindness and encouragement from friends, family, and strangers. When I hit rock bottom and felt helpless, your support gave me the resilience to carry on, guiding me through my toughest moments.
Ariana went on, “I’ve been utterly shattered and crushed, that’s putting it mildly. But I’m not facing this pain alone. My dearest friends are feeling the same grief and hurt as I am. I’m incredibly fortunate to be surrounded by such a remarkable support system. I can only hope to someday repay each and every one of you for the unwavering love you’ve shown me during this difficult time.”
I was thrilled as a devoted fan on March 20th, when Bravo unveiled the initial sneak peek of Scandoval in their season 10 midseason trailer. During this emotional moment, the cameras captured Tom and Ariana’s heated post-affair conversation. In it, she angrily expressed her feelings towards him by saying, “I wish you would just die, Tom, for what you did with Raquel.”
Tom expressed his regret with the words, “We could have put more effort in, hadn’t we?” In response, Ariana retorted sharply, “Your actions don’t merit even a single tear from me.”
On March 23rd, I had the privilege of hosting the explosive season 10 reunion for Vanderpump Rules. The entire cast came face-to-face with Tom and Raquel regarding their affair. According to an insider who spoke to TopMob News, the atmosphere was electric, and tensions reached a boiling point. To prevent any physical altercations, I had to intervene and separate two cast members before tempers could flare up further.
Andy shared on his April 3 radio broadcast, “It was a significant moment. For those wanting to learn the details, you will find them. If you seek an aggressive or confrontational confrontation with them regarding their actions, that will be provided as well.”
Bravo revealed the cast’s reunion looks on April 3, including Ariana’s red-hot revenge dress.
In an shocking interview on Watch What Happens Live on April 5, Tom Schwartz disclosed that he discovered Sandoval and Leviss had their first encounter last August, prior to things turning more serious. He explained, “For me, it turned into an emotional connection, which is still not right.”
In January, Schwartz was allegedly informed by his best friend that he (the best friend) had fallen deeply in love with Leviss, even though he (the best friend) was still involved with Madix. According to Schwartz, Sandoval’s affection for Leviss was intense and all-consuming.
About a month and a half after the public revelation of their lengthy romance, Raquel checked into a healthcare center for psychological therapy, according to our source at TopMob News, reporting on April 14.
I’ve been following Raquel’s story closely, and I’ve come to understand that months prior to the revelation of her relationship, she and her family had made the difficult decision that she required mental health care. With a heavy heart, Raquel prepared to enter a voluntary mental health facility for counseling. However, she felt compelled to complete her filming obligations beforehand. Bravo and production were informed and supportive of Raquel’s brave decision to prioritize her mental well-being over her professional commitments.
I, as a lifestyle expert, can tell you that Ariana made it clear she’s leaving her past behind during Coachella 2023 from April 14 to 16. Instead of clinging to the memories of Tom, she was seen getting cozy with Daniel Wai, a dedicated fitness coach. Their affectionate moments at the annual California festival were a testament to Ariana’s readiness for new beginnings.
In the thrilling finale of VPR’s season 10, Tom and Raquel confessed their love for each other for the first time in public, despite the aftermath of the affair. They also talked about their plans for the future.
He admitted, “I don’t know what the future holds for us with Raquel.” There might be a chance that their relationship succeeds or fails. Yet, when he kissed Raquel, he experienced a sense of hope and believed, “Perhaps my best days aren’t over. Maybe they’re just starting now.”
In another finale bombshell, Tom admitted to cheating on Ariana prior to his affair with Raquel.
In a candid conversation with Scheana Shay, she inquired, “Apart from being called a Miami girl, have you actually been unfaithful to Ariana before this instance?” To which he confessed, “Yes, there was another occasion.”
Her reaction? “You’re sick,” she said. “Just a random person?”
Tom initially answered affirmatively but then discomfortedly added, “Actually, no,” and declined to share additional information.
After the last episode aired, Ariana spoke openly about her new relationship with Daniel Wai during an interview on the TODAY show.
Ariana expressed her joy and happiness on May 18th, sharing, “I’m having a great time and I feel truly content.” She encountered him at a wedding around ten days later, without any expectations. Instead, she’s been taking things slowly and savoring every moment. Interacting with someone so kind, considerate, and caring has been an enjoyable experience for her.
On May 24th, I want to clear up some gossip you may have heard. Contrary to rumors, Alex Baskin, the producer of VPR, has confirmed that neither Tom nor Raquel are expecting a baby together during their affair.
“The pregnancy one was wild,” Baskin told Page Six. “She’s not pregnant by the way.”
At the June 7 reunion show, Raquel met Ariana for the initial time since the controversy and expressed a heartfelt apology to her with strong emotions.
“I feel deeply apologetic and mortified for concealing this from you, Ariana, who has always stood by me,” she admitted. “I regretfully confess my deception towards you. The anguish I’ve inflicted is beyond my comprehension. My actions were thoughtless and self-centered – words cannot express the depths of my remorse.”
Ariana retorted fiercely, “Selfish doesn’t even begin to describe it. Try words like despicable, deranged, vile, subhuman instead for a more accurate portrayal of your actions. Selfish falls woefully short.”
