Tom Sandoval Accused Of 'Gaslighting' Ariana Madix During Final Taped Meeting

Kristen Doute is revealing that Tom Sandoval tried to convince Ariana Madix that the cheating was her fault.

Kristen Doute appeared on "The Viall Files" podcast this week and she has been dropping a lot of gems. While many are accusing her of loving attention and using this as an opportunity to stroke her ego, she is still chatting, and we are still listening.

This time, she shared how that sure-to-be awkward sit down between the two was even worse than we all thought. “He was just gaslighting her. The was no genuine apology,” she told host, Nick Viall.

The scene was filmed for season 10 of the most dramatic season to hit Vanderpump Rules yet. And Sandoval is the reason for that. “He was saying how she never supports him; she doesn’t validate him.”

Doute claims she knows this information because she saw Madix shortly after the poor girl blurted out the dramatic statement to her.

“Of course, it made her mad, but then when I filmed with her, she’s like, crying and holding up her phone going, ‘So, he’s saying our relationship is that of convenience and contentment,’ or something. Not love and romance.”

Madix was a mess understandably. “And she’s immediately just flooding tears, looking at her phone going, ‘So, all of these memories, all of these wonderful trips we took, all of these videos I have, all these kissing photos, this was all bulls—t?'”

For Doute, this was no revelation she knew who Sandoval was back when she dated him. “That’s Tom to a T.” She also wasn’t surprised that Sandoval pursued Raquel Leviss because she’s “dumb” with “no personality”.

Doute, who was recently asked to return to Vanderpump Rules is singing nothing but good praises regarding Madix. “Ariana has a backbone, Raquel does not. Raquel validates everything that Tom needs to be validated.”

Doute went on to say that Sandoval needs someone like Leviss who is younger to feel “cool” and “talented.” Doute has done a lot of talking for Madix but earlier this week the reality star finally said her piece after weeks of silence.

“To say I have been devastated and broken is an understatement. however, I know that I am not in this alone,” she says of the immense support that she has received from strangers who now hate Sandoval and her friends and family.

“So many of my closest friends are also grieving this loss right now and reeling from this betrayal on so many levels.”

Madix went on to write. “I am so f–king lucky to have the best support system in the world and I hope I can repay every single person for the love you have shown me,” adding, “What doesn’t kill me better run.”

Hear that Sandoval? You better run, Madix doesn’t intend to cower in a corner and let this cheating scandal make her weak. As for Sandoval and Leviss, they both released their own apologies that not many people were pleased with.
