Vanderpump Rules Spoilers – Ariana Madix Fakes Move!
After Tom Sandoval cheated on Ariana Madix, Vanderpump Rules fans felt concerned to learn that she still shared a house with the man who betrayed her. However, then Ariana posted on social media indicating that she moved out. And Vanderpump Rules fans felt relieved to see her video in which she posed with packed cardboard boxes next to the Los Angeles house she co-owns with Tom. “Ready to dip out,” wrote Madix in her caption, noted People.
And the Vanderpump Rules star earned cheers from fans as they viewed pics showing Ariana putting boxes into a moving truck at the house. However, the 37-year-old then admitted that she misled her Instagram followers. And Madix confessed that she faked her moving-out video. But Ariana staged it to make money in a sponsored brand partnership.
“I’m moving up not out, well not yet at least,” revealed the Vanderpump Rules star. “It’s time to get my financial house in order. I will have more to share with you very, very soon.” And a financial services company SoFi described the staged move as a “stunt.” Madix’s spokesperson also confirmed that she still lives with Sandoval.

Ariana Madix – Sparks Vanderpump Rules Debate
As a result of that faked move, the Vanderpump Rules star sparked a debate that divided fans. For instance, those who defended her pointed out that Madix needs the brand partnership money to achieve her goals. But those who slammed Ariana for the staged move questioned why she felt the need to fake leaving her home and mislead fans in order to profit. Ariana has shared that she wants to sell the house that she and Tom purchased and remodeled during their nine-year relationship. But although Madix dumped Sandoval after his affair with Raquel Leviss became public, she still lives with him.
“I’ve been on the phone with a real estate agent,” revealed the Vanderpump Rules star. “And I would like to sell that house and move somewhere, own my own place on my own, and start my new life. My plan is to sell the house. I want my money out of that house as quickly as possible and I want to move on.”
But Ariana clarified that she and Tom manage to live in the same house by avoiding interactions. And they use assistants to communicate. “Right now, Tom and Ariana are still living in the same home,” revealed an insider. But they sleep “in separate rooms. There’s a lot to figure out with their living situation,” added the source. “But no plans have been made yet.”
