Vanderpump Rules star, Tom Sandoval, posted an ‘apology’ to his Instagram page.
The lengthy message didn’t explicitly apologize to his girlfriend of nine years, Ariana Madix for having a “full on affair” with their VPR co-star, Raquel Leviss.
The co-owner of TomTom and Schwartz & Sandy’s wrote, “Hey, I fully understand an deserve ur anger & disappointment towards me, but please leave Schwartz, my friends and family out of this situation … Schwartz specifically only found out about this very recently, and most definitely did not condone my actions. This was a very personal thing.”
Without directly acknowledging what he did, he asked his followers to leave his businesses out of this scandal.
“Schwartz & Sandy’s might have my name on it, but also there are 3 other partners and 20 employees, who especially rely on the restaurant for income for them and their families.”
“Just like TomTom, I’m a small part of a much bigger thing. Please direct ur anger towards me and not them. They did nothing wrong.”
Here’s the apology part, but it’s to his business partners, not his life partner …
“I’m so sorry that my partners, Greg, Brett, and Schwartz and our employees have to suffer for my actions. I will be taking a step back & taking a hiatus out of respect for my employees & partners. I need some time to address everything else.”
“Sorry for everything,” concluded Tom.
