Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix has reacted to Tom Sandoval’s lawsuit against her for invasion of privacy.
Sandoval, who is currently being sued by Rachel “Raquel” Leviss, for eavesdropping, revenge p-rn and an invasion of privacy, says Madix made copies of an intimate video Sandoval made of Leviss and distributed copies of the video to third parties.
“It is abhorrent that Tom Sandoval continues to torment Ms. Madix. From engaging in an illicit affair that shattered her home and stability, to months of emotional warfare and now this attempt to further shirk personal responsibility for the effects his actions have had on her and her emotional wellbeing,” Jordan Susman, Madix’s attorney, told THR. “Mr. Sandoval knows full well what sort of privileges he and Ms. Madix shared in regard to their personal communication devices. If he or his mistress had their way, it would be illegal for someone to discover their spouse or significant other was having an affair.”
Susman added, “For Mr. Sandoval to go from begging Ms. Madix for forgiveness to blaming her for his wrongdoing speaks for itself. Even months after The New York Times branded Mr. Sandoval ‘the most hated man in America,’ he has clearly learned nothing and believes it necessary to continue torturing Ms. Madix in a vain effort to rehabilitate his image. Ms. Madix is confident that a jury will see through this latest ploy and dismiss his frivolous claims.”
Ariana Madix has used the scandal to propel herself into the mainstream media. She is the current host of reality show, Love Island USA.
