Tom Sandoval Claims He Broke Up With Ariana on Valentine’s Day

Updating the timeline? Tom Sandoval claimed that he initially broke up with Ariana Madix in February — before news broke of his affair with Vanderpump Rules costar Raquel Leviss.

“I actually did break up with her on Valentine’s Day,” Sandoval, 40, said during a Tuesday, April 11, appearance on the “Howie Mandel Does Stuff” podcast.

Us Weekly confirmed on March 3 that the Missouri native and Madix, 37, were over as Sandoval’s infidelity came to light. However, according to the Schwartz & Sandy’s entrepreneur, he previously made multiple attempts to end the nine-year relationship.

“I made it pretty clear in therapy that I wanted to, like, take the steps to break up. And then actually Ariana kind of just started really started fighting for it and I felt so, so bad about it because she was being so unbelievably sweet and amazing,” he told host Howie Mandel.

Sandoval also claimed that Madix was “completely in denial” about him wanting to call it quits. “She’s like, ‘I’m, like, not letting you leave me. You’re gonna have to force me out of this relationship. … If you break up with me, you will effectively be ending my life,’” he alleged.

The TomTom cofounder continued: “We were broken up. She knew we were broken up. We didn’t tell anybody, but she knew.”

Madix, for her part, addressed the scandal for the first time via Instagram on March 16, thanking her loved ones and fans for their support. “To say I have been devastated and broken is an understatement,” she wrote in the lengthy caption.

The Florida native had an opportunity to air her grievances with Sandoval and Leviss during the season 10 reunion of Pump Rules, which was filmed on March 23. After the shoot, Jax Taylor called out Sandoval for allegedly not owning up to his mistakes during the reunion.

“From what I heard, he was going in on her and deflecting. He didn’t just tuck his tail between his legs and say, ‘You know what? I screwed up. I made a bad decision and I am sorry,’” Taylor, 43, told wife Brittany Cartwright during an April episode of their “When Reality Hits With Jax and Brittany” podcast.

Sandoval, meanwhile, told Mandel, 67, on Tuesday that he thinks the split itself has been harder on Madix than his infidelity.

“There’s two things that happened here: the ending of a relationship and the affair. I can tell you right now [that] the most painful thing for Ariana is the ending of the relationship. That’s also the most painful thing for our friends. They referred to us as Mom and Dad,” he said. “People are grouping the breakup and the affair together. And I understand that.”

As for the lead singer’s relationship with Leviss, Sandoval noted that the pair are “taking a break” from their romance. “We’re really good friends. We’re not putting any label on it,” he said.

Red Carpet Date! Sophia Bush and Grant Hughes Attend WHCA Dinner

Finding The One! Sophia Bush has kept her romance with Grant Hughes relatively private since the pair were first spotted together in Malibu in May 2020. However, the FocusMotion Health founder has shared a few photos of the couple. Ever since landing the role of Brooke Davis on One Tree Hill in 2003, Bush’s personal life has made headlines. That is something that the actress and activist has intentionally changed, she explained in June 2021. “It’s hard to have nothing that’s yours. And when you are a person who lives in the public eye, everybody wants to pick over everything and that can be really tricky,” the False Positive actress told Entertainment Tonight at the time. “I also grew up in the early aughts when girls were raked over the coals for any choices that they made. And I just was like, ‘I don’t think I like this.’ I didn’t like having my private life lied about. There were times where someone would send through an article and be like, ‘Well, supposedly you’re dating t...
