The living situation between Tom Sandoval and Ariana Madix is enough to leave anyone confused, even Rachel Leviss. After the news of Scandoval broke, everyone wondered how Tom and Ariana would navigate their forced proximity.
The two bought a home together, so, what would become of it? Well, as it turned out, they both decided to stay, and fans have seen that debacle play out on Vanderpump Rules Season 11.
Of course, neither stayed out of obligation. They both had options. Now that Ariana is trying to legally force the house’s sale, Rachel has decided to reveal that Tom had even more options than initially theorized.
Rachel admits her confusion at Tom and Ariana’s living situation
On the February 27 episode of her podcast, Rachel revealed she “asked Tom to move out” of his home with Ariana, albeit temporarily. “I provided an apartment for him to stay at when I was at The Meadows. I asked him to leave the house and find a new place by the time I got back.” By “The Meadows,” Rachel was referring to her mental health clinic.
Rachel said Tom reportedly shut down the idea without another thought. “No, that’s not happening,” he allegedly said. She continued, “I don’t know what’s going on between them because Tom has told me that they’re roommates and they’re still roommates. Even if they weren’t quite roommates before, they are now.”
However, Rachel ultimately conceded that she had “no say in their living situation,” adding that “their finances are between them.”
If Rachel’s claims are true, it certainly might make a person wonder all the more about the nature of Tom’s relationship with Rachel post-Scandoval. Perhaps Tom had no intent of maintaining a romantic relationship with his former costar. Perhaps he was just trying to get her back on the show. Of course, a person’s living situation is a complicated issue.
Vanderpump Rules Season 11 continues Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
