‘Vanderpump Rules’ stars Tom Sandoval and Ariana Madix split after cheating rumors
Actors Tom Sandoval and Ariana Madix split after Sandoval’s alleged infidelity with costar Raquel Leviss.
‘Vanderpump Rules’ stars Tom Sandoval and Ariana Madix are calling it quits after nine years of marriage. The news comes as the reality show picks up filming for Bravo TV.
According to People News, Sandoval had allegedly been cheating on Madix with costar Raquel Leviss, which ultimately lead to the split.
“They had been having problems for a while, but this was the final straw for Ariana,” says the unnamed source for People News. “She put up with a lot over the years, but she won’t sit back and be disrespected this way.”
Will this split be shown during season 10?
A source close to production tells People News that “cameras are rolling right now,” meaning Madix and Sandoval’s split will be shown in season 10. Season 10 is currently airing now on Bravo.
On Friday, costar James Kennedy, who was engaged to Leviss before mutually breaking up in January 2022, shared a screenshot of a TMZ article breaking the news, commenting “Hope you all feel as sick as I do. This explains everything.”
However, Madix, Leviss, and Sandoval have yet to make official statements.
According to TMZ’s original report, Madix found out about the cheating in the last couple of days and ended things shortly after. Producers allegedly got word of the news and documented the cast and fallout to incorporate the news into the TV series.
Ariana and Tom’s last outing
Before the news, Madix was last seen with Sandoval just this Wednesday to celebrate the release of his new single and perform with his band. However, according to TMZ sources close to Sandoval claim the couple has been in a disagreement for some time now.
In a promo for season 10 of ‘Vanderpump Rules’ it was suggested that Madix and Sandoval were in an open relationship but Madix later shut down the rumors with a tweet. She tweeted, “We don’t have an open relationship. I’m really not that cool. thought that was obvious. bisexual ≠ polyamorous.”
Earlier today, soon after reports of cheating started popping up Madix deleted her Instagram and Twitter accounts. Sandoval and Leviss’ accounts remain up but the two have yet to make any public statements on the split.
