Tom Sandoval claims he and ex Ariana Madix FINALLY agreed to sell the M home they once shared

After a nearly two-year battle, Tom Sandoval is claiming that he and ex-girlfriend Ariana Madix have finally agreed to sell the home they once shared.

The former couple — whose nine-year relationship ended in wake of his bombshell affair with Rachel Leviss in March 2023 — purchased the house together in LA’s Valley Village neighborhood back in 2019 for $2million.

Despite his infidelity, Sandoval refused to leave the home and they continued to live under the same roof for months, only communicating via a mediator.

The Vanderpump Rules stars could not agree on what to do with the shared property. Madix stood firm on selling it while Sandoval hoped to buy her out of her share of the home, which she refused.

Earlier this year, Madix filed a lawsuit against her ex-boyfriend, asking a judge to force the sale of the home. Sandoval rejected the request weeks later.

‘The house is going on the market. [We are] selling the house, getting it ready,’ Sandoval alleged on Thursday’s episode of his podcast.

He also revealed that he and his current girlfriend, model Victoria Lee Robinson, are moving in together after less than a year of dating.

He went public with his and Robinson’s on/off romance in February 2024. 

As for Madix, she has since moved on with New York-based personal trainer Daniel Wai.

The couple — who split their time between Los Angeles and New York — started dating weeks after Sandoval’s affair was exposed.

Madix and Wai were introduced at a mutual friend’s wedding.

She officially moved out of hers and ex-Tom’s LA home in March 2024 after purchasing a $1.6million Hollywood Hills abode.

Two months before purchasing her new home, Madix filed her lawsuit against Sandoval in the Los Angeles Superior Court.

As per documents obtained by DailyMail.com at the time, Madix asked for a ‘partition by sale,’ which would allow her to force the sale of the home despite Sandoval’s objections and divide the proceeds.

She was fighting against a ‘division in kind’, which would allow each of them to retain their ownership interest in the property.

Theoretically, this could lead to one of them selling to the third party and letting the other still own and live in the home.

Sandoval responded to the suit with legal docs of his own, claiming that Madix owed him $90,000, which he would need back before agreeing to sell their home. 

According to TMZ, he reportedly responded to his ex’s lawsuit by stating no sale will occur until she pays back his alleged loan to her.

Per the legal documents, Sandoval claimed that he has a lien on the house that is tied to the money she owes him and it must be paid before a judge can force a sale.

Sandoval previously slammed Ariana as ‘petty’ for turning down his offer on the $2million property, which was later revealed to be a $600,000 cash buyout.

‘Ariana is making it out to be that me wanting to keep the house is a psychopath move, but it’s not,’ the singer told Nick Viall on the The Viall Files podcast in January.

Sandoval explained: ‘She’s like, “Oh, he gave me a s**t offer.” I gave her an offer of $3.1 million. We bought our house for $2.05 [million]. … I gave her an offer to buy her out.’

He then went on to claim that Madix ‘hasn’t paid a single bill for this house in eight months’ and hasn’t lived in their home for ‘two or three months.’

‘She’s being petty and she doesn’t want me to have the house. That’s the petty [move],’ he alleged. ‘I am breaking up with you, and I don’t want anybody to have [it].’

Sandoval added: It’s [like] flipping over the Monopoly board. That’s it. It’s like, ‘I’m losing at Monopoly, so I’m going to flip the Monopoly board over.’ That’s what it is.

The exes’ alleged agreement to offload their former home comes amid uncertainty around the future of their hit Bravo reality TV show, Vanderpump Rules.

Sources told DailyMail.com earlier this week that the upcoming 12th season of Vanderpump Rules could be its last due to salary disputes and seemingly unresolvable conflicts among various cast members.

Producers have even started auditioning fresh faces to potentially replace the current cast if needed, insiders claim.

‘They’re still negotiating with a few stars who are holding out for more money and are unwilling to compromise,’ said one source.

Another source told DailyMail.com the 12th season may end up being a ‘farewell season’ if the cast can’t come back together and rebuild their friendships in an authentic way.

‘There’s so many issues between various cast members and it’s no longer an organic group of friends that want to hang out with each other,’ the insider explained.

‘In the past they’ve been able to come back from some of the worst fights imaginable so there’s still hope that they can all move forward and have a fresh start,’ they continued.

‘Nothing has been decided yet as far as the future of the show, but it can’t continue this way so things are definitely going to change,’ they continued.

Another source close to production confirmed that conversations around casting and the future of the series ‘are still ongoing’ but a decision will be made soon.

As a result, some of the new waiters at Lisa Vanderpump’s West Hollywood restaurant SUR are ‘desperate’ to get cast on the hit series amid a potential shakeup.

When season 11 of Vanderpump Rules finished airing in May, Madix was still refusing to interact with Sandoval and wanted little to do with his best friend and business partner Tom Schwartz.

Ariana also fell out with former besties Scheana Shay and Lala Kent, instead becoming much closer to Katie Maloney.

To show her loyalty to Ariana – who she owns the Something About Her sandwich shop with – Katie then ended up feuding with Scheana and Lala.

Earlier this year, Madix filed a lawsuit against her ex-boyfriend, asking a judge to force the sale of the home. Sandoval rejected the request weeks later; the exes seen in 2022

With friendships on the rocks and the series still on hiatus, the cast have all started seeking out other work opportunities.

Lala and Scheana both joined the upcoming second season of The Valley, which already stars many of their former Vanderpump Rules co-stars like Jax Taylor and Kristen Doute.

There were originally no plans to bring the pair over to the popular spin-off, but they were both offered lucrative, last-minute contracts when it became clear that Vanderpump Rules wouldn’t film this year.  

Sandoval has also teased a potential move to The Valley, according to TMZ, after making amends with former best friend Jax.

Meanwhile, James Kennedy is focused on his DJ career and even landed a residency in Las Vegas over the summer.

Ariana has of course had the most successful year out of anybody on the cast, most notably bringing in record ratings for Peacock’s Love Island after replacing Sarah Hyland as host.

She also hosted Emmys coverage for E! and appeared on Broadway and on Dancing With The Stars.

Lisa Vanderpump has also shifted focus away from Bravo and over to rival network Hulu, where her new series Vanderpump Villa is gearing up for its second season.

The 64-year-old also just dropped $5 million on a new home in Las Vegas, so she can spend more time in Sin City to focus on opening more venues on the Strip.

And with the show on ice, even cheating villain Rachel Leviss announced on Thursday that she was ending her Vanderpump Rules recap podcast in order to focus on ventures outside of the Bravo series.

Back in May, Vanderpump Rules’ executive producer Alex Baskin confirmed that the series was going on hiatus to give the cast a chance to ‘regroup’ following the Scandoval affair.

‘We thought the break was the right way to go. It’s clear that everyone needs time to reset,’ he told The Hollywood Reporter.

‘I think we’re going to take a full look at what the group looks like in a period of time and figure out what we want to do next.

‘And that may mean that certain people have to make decisions as well. We don’t want anyone to do the show if it doesn’t make sense for where they are now.’

As VPR ‘typically’ films in early July, Baskin noted that they’d have to begin pre-production in June in order to make their usual schedule.

‘And I don’t think that would be great,’ he said. ‘I don’t think that would have been enough time.

‘So I think we as a show will gather ourselves and look at what we want to do, and that will be informed by what everyone individually wants to do. And then we’ll figure out what the path is going forward,’ he added.
