Moving on! After Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix, 37, was spotted locking lips with fitness coach Daniel Wai, on Saturday and Monday, her ex-boyfriend Tom Sandoval, 39, revealed that he is happy for her. “Yes I love that,” he told TMZ of the kissing photos that they published from Coachella (see video below). While leaving LAX on Apr. 18, Tom also noted that he “really” wants Ariana to move on from their relationship. “Yes I do, I really do,” he added, before confirming that he’s “really happy” she found a new man.
Before entering security at the airport, the 39-year-old was asked if he was headed to see Raquel Leviss, 28, who he cheated on Ariana with. “I don’t know man, there’s no comment on that one,” he said in regards to how the 28-year-old is doing amid her checking into a mental health facility last week. Despite this, Tom responded, “No”, when asked if was on his way to visit her.
When the TV personality first arrived at the airport in Los Angeles on Tuesday, he agreed that “everyone should move on” from the cheating scandal. “Yeah, I think they should,” he said. “It’s ridiculous and the people that are perpetuating it the most… the squad of it all.” When the reporter asked if he meant “the girls” from VPR Tom responded with, “Yeah all the uh… yeah.” Ariana’s ex rocked a casual outfit while at the busy travel center, which consisted of a black t-shirt, brown sweatpants, and a black Von Dutch cap.
