The demand for details blew up in Tom’s face when Scheana revealed that he hit on her while he was still in a relationship with former Vanderpump star Kristen Doute.

Sandoval said he did not remember the interaction.

But it served its intended purpose by rescuing Sandoval from having to respond to Scheana’s allegations.
Another scandal for Tom Sandoval?
The last thing Sandoval needs, of course, is another career-damaging controversy.
In March last year, the world learned that Sandoval cheated on Ariana Madix with her close friend Rachel Leviss.

The drama that followed became known as the Scandal. And it worked wonders for Vanderpumpratings, which had been declining for years.
But that didn’t do much to help Sandoval’s reputation.
In fact, the bar owner and aspiring rock star has been described as the most hated man on reality television.

What’s next for Vanderpump Rules?
Of course, a reality show can’t keep riding the wave of a single scandal forever.
Reports that Vanderpump Rules it was canceled appear to be premature. But it seems fans are tired of Scandoval.
Maybe Tom Sandoval and Scheana Shay should get together just to renew interest in their show!
