In a recent episode of 'Vanderpump Rules,' reality TV star Tom Sandoval made some bold claims about his ex-girlfriend Ariana Madix. Sandoval alleged that Madix had not paid any of the bills for their Los Angeles home for a span of eight months after his affair with Raquel Leviss was exposed.
According to Sandoval, he found himself in a difficult financial situation, with his bank account being overdrawn. He claimed to have been managing the expenses by moving money around from various accounts to cover bills, including the mortgage, gardening, cleaning, and utilities. Sandoval expressed frustration, stating that it often felt like pulling teeth to get Madix to reimburse him for these expenses.
The ex-couple's $2 million Valley Village modern farmhouse-style home has been a contentious issue since their split last year. Madix has consistently expressed her desire to sell the property, while Sandoval has been determined to keep it and buy her out.
The couple's disagreement over the home's fate has been further exacerbated by their differing perceptions of responsibility. Madix believes that Sandoval is trying to assert dominance and make her uncomfortable, highlighting that he was the one who 'broke the home.' She refuses to settle for what she considers to be a measly offer from Sandoval. However, she did not disclose the amount he had proposed.
Sandoval recently revealed that he had offered Madix $3.1 million for the property. Nonetheless, Madix declined the offer and proceeded to take legal action by requesting a 'partition by sale' in January, essentially suing Sandoval to force the sale of the property.
The issue surrounding their home has reached an impasse, with Madix currently living in New York City while performing in the Broadway production of 'Chicago.' As of now, her representatives have not responded to Sandoval's claims.
The financial strain, combined with the emotional turmoil caused by their public breakup, has undoubtedly added a layer of complexity to an already challenging situation. It remains to be seen how the ex-couple will resolve their dispute and what the future holds for their shared property.
In the world of reality TV, these real-life dramas often play out before the viewers' eyes, providing a unique glimpse into the personal lives of these individuals. The ongoing saga between Tom Sandoval and Ariana Madix serves as a reminder that even the seemingly glamorous lives of reality stars are not without their fair share of challenges and complications.
