Tom Sandoval Dated Ariana Madix For ‘Convenience’

Kristen Doute details how Tom Sandoval allegedly ‘poisoned’ then-girlfriend Ariana Madix into believing he was unfaithful It was her fault.

On Thursday’s show, Viall Files Podcast.Dutt explained what happened between the former couple after Madix learned of Sandoval’s month-long affair with co-star Raquel Reeves.

“He just set her on fire. It wasn’t really an apology,” Dutt, 40, said of the pair’s heated confrontation — which was filmed on season 10 of “Vanderpump Rules.”

“He said she never supported him, didn’t approve of him,” the former reality star continued. “He blamed her.”

Dutt, who dated Sandoval from 2007 to 2014, also claimed Sandoval kept making excuses even after he and Madix split.

“Of course it pissed her off, but when I was hanging out with her, she was on the phone and crying, ‘So he said our relationship was about comfort and contentment,’ or something like that. Not love and romance.

She continued, “When she looked at her phone, she immediately burst into tears and said, ‘So all these memories, all these wonderful trips we had, all these videos of me, all these pictures of kissing, they’ve all been Existed. Bull…T?’”

However, Dutt was apparently not surprised by her ex’s behavior, saying “it’s Tom to T”.

Not only that, but the former reality star was unimpressed as Sandoval caught up with Levis, whom she called “stupid” and without “personality.”

“Ariana has backbone,” Dutt explained. “Raquel no. Raquel validated everything Tom needed.

She added that Levis, 28, made Sandoval, 40, feel “cool” and “talented.”

Representatives for Sandoval and Madix did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.

Despite Dutt’s outspokenness on the matter, Madix broke his silence on Wednesday night nearly two weeks after he found an X-rated message from Levis on Sandoval’s phone.

The 37-year-old took to Instagram to thank her friends and fans for their “outpouring of love” during her “darkest hour”.

“To say I’m frustrated and heartbroken is an understatement. However, I know I’m not alone,” wrote Madix, who dated Sandoval for nearly a decade.

“Many of my closest friends are also now mourning this loss and are devastated by this betrayal on many levels.”

“I’m so blessed to have the best support system in the world and I hope I can repay the love you guys have shown me,” she continued, adding, “What’s not going to kill me, you better run”
