BravoCon 2023: Tom Sandoval ‘Nervous’ Ahead of Pump Rules Panel With Ariana Madix

Tom Sandoval loves to play it cool but with Scandoval still lingering, he’s likely going to be in the hot seat for a very long time. Especially when the next season of Vanderpump Rules starts.

Now there’s no doubt that Tom will be feeling the burn of said hot seat at this year’s BravoCon. He’s set to appear on a VPR panel with Ariana Madix, the ex he so ruthlessly betrayed.

On a recent episode of his podcast, Everybody Loves Tom, Sandoval got candid with his feelings about sharing space with Ariana. Regarding the potential crowd reaction to Ariana, he stated “Because if she comes out it’s like, ‘Yay,’ [or] whatever. Then I come out and people are going to want to show their loyalty to Team Ariana or whatever, and I’m a little nervous about it.”

As he should be. The breakup heard ’round the reality TV world (and beyond) has caused some serious waves. And continues to dominate headlines. Sandoval has been cast out as an uber-villain (obvi) and Ariana has achieved new heights of fame as a woman wronged.

Originally, Sandoval was stumbling through a PR nightmare of his own making, after issuing a bizarre apology to Ariana via social media. The statement read in part, “Hey, I fully understand and deserve ur anger & disappointment towards me, but please leave [Tom] Schwartz, my friends and family out of this situation. Schwartz specifically only found out about this very recently, and most definitely did not condone my actions. This was a very personal thing.”

Sorry not sorry

Fans rightly took major issue with the lack of apology to the person he wronged by cheating, Ariana. Since that debacle, Sandoval continued to stumble, while only recently attempting to change the trajectory of his downfall.

Just kidding! He’s as terrible as ever. Sandoval even recently stated that he might cheat again one day. Just a few weeks ago, he shared, “I can’t say I’ll never [have an affair] again.” The man who sings as cosplay added, “Yeah. I don’t like dealing with absolutes. That’s the way to the dark side. I find it’s better to lower expectations in a way and then exceed them.” 

TELL US – HOW DO YOU THINK THE CROWD WILL REACT TO SANDOVAL AT BRAVOCON? SHOULD HE BE NERVOUS ABOUT THE PUMP RULES PANEL?
