Heavy/NBCUniversal Tom Schwartz
Lindsay Hubbard opened up about the longtime friendship between “Vanderpump Rules” stars Tom Schwartz and Tom Sandoval as the two Bravo stars are starting to film the 11th season of the hit Bravo show.
“Summer House” OG Hubbard, who is friends with Schwartz and Sandoval, spoke about their joint business venture, Schwartz & Sandy’s, and suggested that they stop doing business together to save their friendship. “It’s probably better to cut ties, separate and go back to friendship, if that’s what matters to you,” she told The U.S. Sun.
“Listen, there’s something about money… it kind of ruins the friendship. It really does,” she added. She said she thought the two longtime friends could probably get their friendship back if they wanted to but it would be better to remove the “money element,” especially if Sandoval’s infamous affair with Raquel Leviss was affecting their business.
“If Sandoval is affecting the income that is coming in for Schwartz and their other partners, then that’s a problem,” Hubbard added. However, she appeared to call out Sandoval as she pointed out, “Something tells me friendship does not really matter to Sandoval because, you know, look what happened with his girlfriend,” in reference to his split from Ariana Madix in the wake of the affair being discovered.

Carl Radke & Kyle Cooke Had to Cut Their Business Ties to Save Their Friendship, Lindsay Hubbard Shared
During her interview with The U.S. Sun, Hubbard also compared Schwartz and Sandoval’s issues with those of her own castmates Kyle Cooke and Carl Radke.
As “Summer House” viewers will know, Radke and Cooke have been close friends since the first season of the show, and Radke even began working for Cooke’s company Loverboy. However, he quit in November 2022 and told People that working with Cooke “complicated” their friendship. “Working at a startup with your friends is not for the faint of heart,” he shared.
Hubbard explained that the two men were still working on getting back to their friendship and it was progressing “slowly but surely,” seven months after Radke’s departure from the company. “It takes time, of course, but I think it’s a healthier relationship for them to have,” she told The U.S. Sun.
