‘Vanderpump Rules’ returns for Season 11, and it was an emotional night for Ariana Madix.
The premiere episode marked her return to Tom Tom for the first time since she found out her longtime boyfriend and now ex-boyfriend Tom Sandoval had been cheating on her with his friend Rachel Reavis.
Ariana was scheduled to attend James Kennedy’s DJ set at the bar, but told her current boyfriend Daniel Wye that she was “nervous” about returning to the bar.
In her confessional, she said: “I don’t have to make my life smaller just because Tom ruined everything. If I can go there and make new memories, maybe it won’t have any power over me anymore and I’ll You’ll be able to see it.” It’s just a bar. ”
When she arrived at the TomTom, she felt “upset” as she was sitting with her girlfriend in the same place she had been when she found out about the incident.
“I never thought something like this would happen now,” she said. “I think, “This is just a place, or it’s just a chair, or a table, or whatever, but I’ve sat at this table so many times that now that time has taken over my memory of this place.” I’m here.”
Ariana just spoke to Extra about the new season of VPR and said, “There have been a lot of big failures this year and at different times, but last year I faced two big losses in my family. That was before the others. This year, with lower minimum temperatures, it feels much lighter and brighter. [I’m] Just focused on the future. ”
Meanwhile, at the beginning of the premiere episode, Maddix revealed how upset he was that Tom Schwartz supported Sandoval on “Watch What Happened Live with Andy Cohen.” Schwartz even told his fans to give him a hug if they saw him on the street.
While speaking with Shayana Shay, Ariana said of Schwartz, “So I texted him and then blocked him.”
In her confessional, she added, “I don’t remember exactly what I said to Schwartz, but I don’t think it was that bad.”
But Schwartz shared graphic texts he received from Ariana in his own confessional.
He claimed: Smother him in Sandoval’s dirty ass, some more. ” Jesus. For the record, I never choked on Sandoval’s dirty ass. ”
“Extra” recently interviewed Schwartz and he said of his relationship with Sandoval: , so I feel like we had a moment where we could be fundamentally honest with each other. We basically went to couples therapy without going to couples therapy. We put a lot of effort into our friendship. I was mad at him for so many reasons…but I love him. ”
Tom explained: “I know his reputation has been in tatters lately…but he’s got a good heart and a good soul. It is working.”
