Of course, the drama will be at an all-time high following the shocking cheating
scandal between her longtime boyfriend Tom Sandoval, and their co-star Rachel Leviss.
Recently, Madix made a surprising comment about how fans may react to the new season of the reality series.
Ariana Madix thinks fans may sympathize with Tom Sandoval during Season 11
“Vanderpump Rules” Season 11 is set to begin airing on Bravo in January. In the meantime, Ariana Madix is gearing up to relive the drama of her split with Tom Sandoval, and the reaction from fans as they watch. The current “Dancing With The Stars” contestant took to Instagram to respond to a fan theory that viewers may sympathize with Sandoval during the new season. “Certainly wouldn’t be surprised if the audience swings that way,” Madix admitted.
Fans of the show know Madix and Sandoval split earlier this year after nearly a decade together. The couple ended their relationship after it was revealed that Sandoval had an affair with Madix’s friend and their co-star Rachel Leviss. The shocking news blew up the friend group and became known as “Scandoval” to reality TV fans.
At Bravo Con, Madix and Sandoval reunited to talk about the upcoming season and fans got a sneak peek at Season 11. In the teaser trailer, Madix and Sandoval are seen awkwardly hanging out together with the rest of their friends. At one point, the situation blows up and Madix accuses her ex of ruining her life and home.
Vanderpump Rules Season 11 filming was horrible for Tom Sandoval
During a recent interview, Tom Sandoval admitted that it was difficult for him to film Season 11 of “Vanderpump Rules.” The reality star admitted that he felt very alienated from his cast members and friends. He also added that he got emotional during filming as well.
“[Filming season 11] was awful for me. It was absolutely horrible. I have seen other castmates — and I’ve always tried to be there for them — be pushed out of the group,” Sandoval said on the “30, Flirty, and Flying” podcast. “I always had sympathy and I always looked out for those people. But to actually be that person was a whole different story. It was very depressing.”
Ariana Madix, Tom Sandoval, and several other cast members will return for “Vanderpump Rules” Season 11. However, Rachel Leviss has opted not to return to the show.
