“Vanderpump Rules” star Tom Sandoval shared that he is supportive of Ariana Madix’s latest endeavor. As fans of the Bravo series are aware, the former couple called it quits in March 2023 because of Sandoval’s romantic involvement with his former castmate Rachel “Raquel” Leviss.
While speaking to Entertainment Tonight in August 2023, Sandoval shared that he will be an avid “Dancing with the Stars” viewer to see Madix go out on the dance floor with her partner, professional dancer Pasha Pashkov. The Tom Sandoval & The Most Extras singer also stated that he will be casting votes to help ensure his ex-girlfriend takes home the mirrorball trophy during the show’s upcoming 32nd season.
“I’ll be doing both, voting and watching. I’m really, I’m really excited for her. I know she has been wanting to do this show for years. I think she’s going to do great. She’s a really hard worker. I think she’ll go far, hopefully,” said Sandoval.
The Bravo personality made similar comments during a September 2023 Extra interview, alongside his “Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test” co-star, Bode Miller.
“I will be voting for [Madix]. I think she’s going to do really well, she’s got a lot of natural ability when it comes to dancing and she’s been wanting to be on the show for a long time, and I’m super stoked for her. I hope she does really well. I think she will,” said Sandoval.
