The living situation between Vanderpump Rules stars Ariana Madix and Tom Sandoval is stressful. And I’m talking about for me, never mind them! In 2019, the couple bought their $2 million love nest. But now that the relationship is over, the duo is still stuck living together. Ariana filed legal documents in January 2024, requesting that the home be sold. She has a court date in June 2024.
But now Sandoval claimed during the most recent episode of Pump Rules that he had to go on tour because he was broke. He alleged that Ariana hadn’t paid any bills regarding the house for eight months. Sandoval claimed that he was the one paying all the bills.
Show Ariana some receipts, Sandoval
Ariana and Sandoval sounded off about their money situation on the Vanderpump Rules: After Show. “I had money that I was counting on like things definitely didn’t end up going through and yeah, I had to tour,” Sandoval said.
A producer asked, “Did that get resolved? Is that still an issue today or what’s the latest with that?” Sandoval replied, “Yeah. No, that has not been resolved.”
Now let’s hear Ariana’s side of the story. “I have asked repeatedly, for years at this point, for an itemized breakdown of said bills that he is talking about,” she said. The Broadway star explained that they would both put their money into a joint bank account, and bills would automatically come out.
Fast forward to 2021. “We refinanced in 2021 and at that point, things changed. The account that the mortgage started coming out of was no longer the joint account. It was his account,” Ariana stated. “That was at the same time that he got this HELOC loan that I co-signed.”
She continued, “I had asked for this itemized breakdown for so long, and it would be like, ‘Oh, you know you owe X amount of money.’ I’m like, ‘How did you figure this out?’”
Sandoval explained, “So, it’s like I have to pay for accounting to send like every detailed receipt. It’s like, ‘Yo, like this is the bank statement. This is what came out of my account from Spectrum.’ What do you think, I have like a side deal with Spectrum, or like with AT&T? Like no, I don’t.”
Ariana doesn’t trust Sandoval or his math skills
“Sh*t is different now. When we were together, maybe I would have trusted that sh*t to be accurate, but once all this sh*t went down, it’s like I don’t trust a f*cking word you say. So, if you are going to tell me that I owe you a certain amount of money, you better be able to show your work,” Ariana said.
Katie Maloney asked, “Can you prove that you have been paying like your part of the mortgage to shut him up?”
Ariana responded, “I mean it comes out of his account. So as of the refinance, I can’t prove sh*t except that I’ve like given him checks for like random amounts of money. But now I don’t write him checks because I don’t believe a word he says about what I actually owe him,” she said.
“So I also found out that the amount of money I was giving him every month for the mortgage was an overpayment. So, until I get that breakdown, which I’ve asked now three different assistants for, you ain’t getting sh*t from me because you can’t show me what actually this is and I don’t believe a word you say,” Ariana said. “You’ve proven yourself to be untrustworthy.”
Of course, Sandoval is annoyed by the entire situation. “I feel like she’s just trying to be difficult. But, whatever, I mean I don’t know what to do,” he said. Then, his bestie, Tom Schwartz, came up with the only sensible solution. “You can start an OnlyFans,” he suggested.
Vanderpump Rules Season 11 continues Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
