Tom Sandoval up-ended the cast pool party on a previous episode of Vanderpump Rules. He went tit-for-tat with Scheana Shay and took a low blow after the two friends started squabbling over the Good As Gold singer’s new single.
It all went down after Scheana referenced Sandoval’s affair with Rachel Leviss in her newest song, Apples. Rather than take the route of humility, he chose to spar with his supposed friend by calling her the “other woman” in her affair with Eddie Cibrian.
The jab was meant to hurt, and Scheana left the party in tears. Sandoval was left to justify his comment. But in a preview for next week’s episode, he did apologize to Scheana.
Tom revealed that the constant Scandoval digs “frustrated” him
Sandoval and Scheana met at Kyle Chan’s store to discuss their performances for his whiskey launch party in San Fransisco.
Kyle broke the ice by expressing concern that emotions from the recent fight could spill over into the event.
“I apologize for bringing up that shit from years ago, I shouldn’t have done that. I want things to be good with us,” Sandoval said.
“Literally, that was the only reason I wasn’t even gonna put the song out last week,” Scheana replied. “I was like, ‘Tom’s definitely going through it with the podcast coming out.’ But I was like, the song was never about you. I did add that line in.”
“It’s not the end of the world. It just frustrated me,” he said.
Scheana became emotional recalling her history with Sandoval
Scheana started getting emotional as she praised Sandoval’s loyalty to her. It’s an internal conflict that she’s been dealing with all season.
“That’s why I was apologizing the other day. And I meant that. Like, I never forget what a good friend you’ve been to me. You’re the only person who’s always had my back from day one. I don’t forget that. That’s what made it so hard because I had to choose a side. And she didn’t do anything wrong,” she said through tears.
“But I don’t understand why there has to be a line drawn in the sand like that. Relationships never end well. When I show up at any event I feel like so alienated.” Tom responded about Ariana Madix’s refusal to have mutual friends with him.
Kyle, who has also been a source of support for Tom, interjected, “I’m not saying you guys should forgive him, it’s totally your choice. Just don’t continue to torture him that way.”
Additionally, Scheana said, “I mean, I would definitely like to be able to move forward where we’re not throwing each other’s past in each other’s faces. I don’t hate you, I don’t want anything bad for you. I miss you.”
Consequently, Sandoval replied, “I miss you too.”
