The season finale of Vanderpump Rules brought intense drama to the forefront. Things boiled over as Ariana Madix confronted producers and castmates in a surprising clash that left everyone reeling.
A lot of tensions were already simmering after the shocking revelations earlier this season about Tom Sandoval’s affair with co-star Raquel Leviss, leading to his breakup with Ariana back in March 2023.
An Emotional Clash
The tension came to a head during an event in San Francisco. Initial conversations seemed focused, but things took an explosive turn when Sandoval attempted to apologize to Ariana on camera.
At the event, Scheana Shay and Ariana were conversing when Sandoval intruded. This led Ariana to storm off, vigorously telling Bravo’s executive producer Jeremiah Smith that she was not interested in engaging with Sandoval. According to her, He doesn’t give a s*** if I f***ing died in a ditch or got a f***ing deadly STD the way he was f***ing around behind my back! That is non-informed consent!
Scheana Caught In-Between
Scheana, who has known both Ariana and Tom for years, expressed her conflicted feelings after the attempt from Sandoval.You have been there for me
, she said tearfully to Sandoval.That’s why I’m struggling. Because you have been a good friend
. This emotional tug-of-war showcased the strained relationships further.
