Tom Sandoval, Ariana Madix, Raquel Leviss Tommy Garcia/Bravo(3)
Tom Sandoval, the 41-year-old reality star, recently gave an insightful interview while walking and talking with TMZ. During the interview, which took place on Wednesday, July 12, Sandoval shared his opinions on various Bravo events. He was accompanied by his former Vanderpump Rules costar, Billie Lee, as they left a spa together. Sandoval began the conversation by complimenting the photographer on his car's wrapping. He then made it clear that he and Lee are simply friends.
When asked about the possibility of working with Adele, who recently criticized Sandoval during her Las Vegas performance, the TomTom co-founder had an unexpected response. He suggested remaking the popular Zack Attack song from the '90s sitcom Saved By the Bell. With a smile, he sang a few lines from the song performed by Mark-Paul Gosselaar, expressing his belief that Adele would appreciate it.
Sandoval also commented on the achievements of his ex-girlfriend Ariana Madix after they broke up. (We confirmed in March that the former couple called it quits due to Sandoval’s involvement with their costar Raquel Leviss.)

Madix, aged 38, confirmed her participation in season 32 of Dancing With the Stars, prompting Sandoval to extend his well-wishes to her. "She's also paired with Derek Hough on the show. I don't want to jinx it, but I believe she has a 9 out of 10 chance of winning," he commented. "I don't want to say it's a sure 10, but she definitely has a strong chance. Let's say 9.5."
As the casual conversation continued, Sandoval shared his thoughts on how Leviss, aged 28, is handling the attention following their cheating scandal. "I'm not sure. You would have to ask her," he responded, while also mentioning that he couldn't disclose whether Leviss would appear on season 11 of the popular Bravo series. (Currently, Raquel is undergoing treatment at a mental health facility.)
Sandoval has previously contemplated on what he would have done differently after his personal life was publicized. In March, he shared with TMZ, "Hindsight's always 20/20." He further explained the phrase, saying, "When you reflect on a past situation, you realize all the things you could have improved upon."
Since then, the TV personality has been seen shooting new episodes alongside his Vanderpump Rules co-stars for the upcoming season. In a clip from Wednesday, Sandoval became emotional following a intense argument with Scheana Shay about his undisclosed relationship with Leviss.
