Vanderpump Rules star, Tom Sandoval is officially done with his former bestie and ride-or-die, Billie Lee. The two first bonded in Season 6 of the hit Bravo reality series when she was a hostess. Then, she left after Season 7 but Sandoval and his then-girlfriend, Ariana Madix remained close to Billie. Now, the friendship is over and Sandoval is laying his truth out on the line. Keep reading to see what happened.
The Downfall Off Tom Sandoval & Billie Lee
When the cast of Vanderpump Rules had issues with Billie Lee, some of her co-stars still rallied around her. Tom Sandoval and Ariana Madix kept up with Billie and her happenings. At the same time, Sandoval and Billie’s closeness sparked rumors that the two had hooked up. They vehemently denied anything had happened and went on with their lives. In March 2023, Ariana learned Sandoval had been having an affair with co-star and best friend, Rachel Leviss. Almost everyone in the cast had abandoned him and the fans made him and Rachel out to be the villains.
However, Billie Lee was right by his side, staying with and comforting him, and tending to the home. Essentially, she was doing all she could to make the situation easier. Then, Sandoval started dating Victoria Lee Robinson and, at first, the ladies liked each other. Then, it took a turn and Bille alleged that Victoria was contributing to Sandoval’s drinking and it was toxic. Now, Sandoval is back with his Everybody Loves Tom podcast and is sharing the real deal with Billie Lee.
According to Reality Blurb!, Tom Sandoval seemed heartbroken as he really did love and care for Billie Lee but that has since been shattered:
“We were close and good friends and it’s very sad. You feel like you trust somebody and you feel like you have a friend who’s open and honest and real with you and you find out this whole other side and it makes you sort of pull into your shell.”
Billie Lee allegedly deceived Sandoval, pulling the wool over his eyes but was it just the allegations against his girlfriend? That was a part of it and Victoria Lee Robinson chimed in with this:
“I haven’t even been able to speak and she’s already created a narrative of who I am.”
The Lies That Were Told
Tom Sandoval went on to share how Billie Lee created a story that she gave up so much to be his friend. In reality, he did not feel that she had anything to lose and kept her life intact:
“She didn’t lose any friends. People in general were always a little scared of Billie because she would use the trans card.”
Then, there was something that set the friendship over the edge and put it beyond repair. Billie Lee had asked Sandoval to be a sperm donor so she could have a baby and he did agree to think about it. He soon began dating Victoria but made an interesting discovery. Allegedly, Billie told people she and Sandoval were having a child together. This was something he said he was thinking about not that he had committed to:
“It freaked me the f*ck out because I know how reactive Billie can get. This is somebody who has been close to me during this time, who can sell stories and get blah, blah, blah. [So] I’m scared of what she might f*cking say.”
Ultimately, Tom Sandoval told Billie Lee he was not going to go ahead with being a donor due to her finances and that was when more lies came out. Admittedly, Sandoval does do a “mushroom trip every once in a while” or at a music festival. However, he says he is not into hard drugs and does not appreciate the narrative.Do you think that Billie Lee was telling the truth or is Sandoval finally spilling the proper tea?
