Tom Sandoval has left “Scandoval” behind him and thinks fans should too! The Vanderpump Rules star has been coming under fire as rumor mills have been churning with speculation that he has cheated on his current girlfriend, Victoria Lee Robinson.
A source exclusively revealed to In Touch Weekly on January 4, 2025, that Tom Sandoval is sick of being painted as a villain by the public. The source explained that the reality TV star took accountability and admitted to everything he was guilty of after news broke out that Sandoval had cheated on his girlfriend of almost a decade, Ariana Madix, with their friend and fellow Vanderpump Rules costar, Rachel "Raquel" Leviss back in March. The source shared how it had been two years since the affair, and Sandoval thinks he’s paid his dues. The source revealed that the Vanderpump Rules star wants to move past the whole ordeal in the following words:
“He wants to move on, but no matter what he does, he’s still associated with this scandal.”
The insider also addressed the cheating allegations that had been circling regarding Sandoval’s current girlfriend, Lee Robinson, stating that Sandoval “hit the roof” because he was not guilty of being unfaithful this time around. Despite the fact that Sandoval’s girlfriend made a public statement about how there was a misunderstanding, the TomTom co-owner spiraled after fans were quick to pounce on him. While friends have been supportive and asked Sandoval to stay positive, the insider explained that the reality TV star feels like he’ll never be allowed to move past the repercussions of “Scandoval.”
