On March 16, Kristen Doute revealed in a new podcast episode what Tom Sandoval allegedly told ex-girlfriend Ariana Madix about their breakup.
The drama just keeps on continuing! On March 16, Kristen Doute, 40, poured fuel to the fire after Katie Maloney, 36, criticized her Vanderpump Rules co-star Raquel Leviss, 28, for her affair with Tom Sandoval, 39.
During her conversation with The Bachelor alum Nick Viall, 42, on The Viall Files, she said Tom told his ex-girlfriend Ariana Madix, 37, that he dated her for “convenience.”
“He simply gaslighted her. According to Page Six, she stated that Tom and Ariana’s breakup was not accompanied by a sincere apology. “He was stating that she never validates him or supports him. He placed the blame on her.”
Kristen and Tom dated for seven years before ending their relationship in 2014. “Of course, it angered her, but when I taped with her, she was crying and screaming, ‘So he’s saying our relationship is one of convenience and contentment?’ or whatever. Not love and romance continued Kristen.
The breakup will air during Season 10 of Vanderpump Rules, which Kristen referred to as “humiliating.”
The 40-year-old continued,
“And she’s immediately in floods of tears, looking at her phone, and saying, ‘So, all of these memories, all of these lovely trips we made, all of these films I have, and all of these images of us kissing were a lie?'”
She also referred to Ariana’s ex-boyfriend as “narcissistic” and “selfish,” adding that she has “nothing kind” to say about him during this difficult time.
Given that the brunette beauty had previously dated Tom, she conceded that his behavior was not entirely unexpected. She stated, “That’s Tom to the letter.”
In addition, the Bravo personality insulted Raquel’s apology message, which was published on March 8 via Entertainment Tonight. She stated,
“The finale was something along the lines of ‘Tom and I are not yet defining our relationship.'” “Female, sit down!”
Later, she defended her pal while continuing to criticize the 28-year-old. “Ariana has a backbone,” Kristen said. “Raquel does not. Raquel validates everything that Tom requires validation for.
The candid interview with Kristen follows on the heels of Ariana’s Instagram-posted statement announcing the breakup, dated March 15. “hi. where to start?
I wish to convey my deepest appreciation for the outpouring of love and support from friends, family, and strangers that I have received over the past two weeks.
“When I felt like I couldn’t even stand, you all gave me the strength to persevere and saw me through my darkest hours,” she said in a lengthy caption.
“to say I have been devastated and broken is an understatement. Nonetheless, I am aware that I am not alone. So many of my closest friends are mourning this loss and struggling from this betrayal on so many levels right now.
I am very happy to have the best support system in the world, and I hope to be able to thank everyone for the love they have shown me. what doesn’t kill me better run? “Love, Ariane,” concluded the statement.
Tom and Ariana dated from 2014 until earlier this month when they broke up. Since then, many of their co-stars have reacted to the divorce, including Katie, who believed Raquel “earned” the criticism she has received.
The sixth episode of Season 10 aired on March 15, with the next scheduled to air on Bravo the following Wednesday.
