In a candid interview, the 40-year-old reality TV personality declared, “I am single, yes.” This comes after months of speculation and intrigue surrounding his love life, particularly his relationships with co-stars Ariana Madix and Raquel Leviss.
Tom Sandoval Makes His Single Status Official
Known for his laid-back and unconventional approach to dating, Sandoval shared his perspective and thoughts about modern romance. He likened the dating scene to a job interview, emphasizing his preference for getting to know potential partners organically.
“It’s just weird. It feels like a job interview; I don’t usually like to go on dates unless I know them already,” Sandoval said. “I would rather hang out with them and like their friends, see who they surround themselves with, see how they act when they get drunk, then later go out on dates.”
This official confirmation of his single status follows a scandal involving his alleged affair with Leviss while still in a relationship with Ariana Madix. After nearly nine years together, Sandoval and Madix decided to part ways amid the infidelity rumors.
In addition to his relationship status, Sandoval discussed his newfound sobriety, which has lasted for five months. He also hinted at his participation in the reality series Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test, showing the personal growth and introspection the experience has provided.
Sandoval’s Scandalous Saga Continues at Life Is Beautiful Festival
Following Levis’s decision to block Sandoval on Instagram, it seems that the reality TV star is far from putting his past behind him. Sandoval’s recent antics at the Life Is Beautiful music festival, showcased unabashedly on his Instagram, have further cemented his reputation as a controversial figure in the world of reality television.
This festival holds a significant place in Vanderpump Rules history, as it marked the beginning of Sandoval’s affair with Leviss, ultimately leading to the end of his relationship with Ariana Madix. Despite the consequences of his actions, Sandoval continues to portray himself as the victim in this narrative.
Adding intrigue to the situation is the presence of Scheana Shay, who was spotted hanging out with Sandoval at the festival. This development has left fans questioning Shay’s motivations and loyalties, particularly in light of her past defense of Madix and confrontations with Sandoval during Season 10.
Sandoval’s Instagram Stories reveal him taking jabs at Leviss, raising concerns given her clear desire for him to stay out of her life. His actions and apparent disregard for all the controversies continue to perplex fans of the show. While some male cast members have had their share of lows, Sandoval’s behavior stands out for its insensitivity and lack of remorse.
