Jax Taylor called out Tom Sandoval for not taking responsibility for his mistakes towards Ariana Madix during the Vanderpump Rules reunion, while Tom Schwartz hinted at Madix standing her ground while confronting Sandoval and Raquel Leviss for their cheating scandal.
Reality TV stars Jax Taylor and Tom Sandoval clashed over Sandoval’s behaviour towards his ex-girlfriend Ariana Madix on an upcoming reunion episode of Vanderpump Rules. Speaking on their When Reality Hits With Jax and Brittany podcast, Taylor claimed that Sandoval had failed to take responsibility for his infidelity towards Madix. In contrast, Tom Schwartz, who is Sandoval’s business partner and friend, praised Madix’s forceful confrontation of Sandoval and his current girlfriend Raquel Leviss over their cheating.
Schwartz also revealed that he had learned of Sandoval’s infidelity in August 2021 and that it had continued in an emotional capacity until January, when Sandoval confessed to being in love with Leviss. In March, it emerged that Sandoval and Madix had parted ways after nearly a decade of dating due to his infidelity. Sandoval and Leviss subsequently issued public apologies.
The Vanderpump Rules cast reunited in front of the cameras to discuss the scandal, with host Andy Cohen saying he had conducted separate interviews with the parties involved before bringing them together. Lala Kent also hinted that the reunion had become heated and almost became physical, with security having to intervene.
The drama is set to air as part of the show’s 10th season and promises to be “the most explosive season of Vanderpump Rules ever,” according to a source.
