Tom Sandoval featured in the reunion episode of Vanderpump Rules season 11. Bravo released a preview showing Sandoval targeting his ex, Rachel Leviss after host Andy Cohen mentioned her during the conversation. Cohen prompted the cast to share their feelings about Leviss leaving the show following the scandal involving Sandoval and Ariana Madix.

Tom Sandoval’s Remarks About Rachel Leviss

In the opening moments of the episode, Andy Cohen raised the topic of Leviss, asking the cast for their reactions to her not returning to the show. Before Sandoval could respond, Lisa Vanderpump expressed disinterest in Leviss’s podcast, stating it only disappointed other cast members.
Following Vanderpump’s comments, Sandoval questioned if she had actually listened to “Rachel Goes Rogue.” Vanderpump replied, “All this nonsense on a podcast and her denigrating everyone—it’s absolutely ridiculous. I don’t listen to it, I mean, from what I’ve been told.”
During the discussion, Sandoval vented his frustration with Leviss for frequently mentioning him in her podcast. He said, “Looking back, I think she’s a f—ing coward. I’m sorry to say it.”

The Scandoval

The scandal, dubbed “Scandoval” by fans, involved Tom Sandoval, Ariana Madix, and Rachel Leviss. It emerged that Sandoval had cheated on Madix with Leviss while filming the show. Madix and Sandoval had been together for nine years when the affair came to light, leading to a dramatic confrontation between the exes on the show.
Cast members criticised Leviss for betraying Madix while pretending to be her friend. The incident significantly impacted Leviss’s mental health, prompting her to seek treatment at a mental health facility. Eventually, she announced she would not return to the show.
