Tom Sandoval has finally posted a public apology to Ariana Madix after cheating on her with Vanderpump Rules co-star Raquel Leviss, just days after he got ripped to shreds for leaving Ariana out of his initial statement.
“I want to first and foremost apologize to everyone I’ve hurt through this process,” he posted to Instagram late on Tuesday, March 7. “Most of all, I want to apologize to Ariana. I made mistakes, I was selfish, and made reckless decisions that hurt somebody I love. No one deserves to feel that pain so traumatically and publicly.
“I can only imagine how devastating this has been for Ariana and everyone around us,” he continued. “I feel really horrible about that. My biggest regret is that I dishonored Ariana. I never meant to disappoint so many people, including our loving families and friends.”
“My love for Ariana was stronger than any camera could ever have captured. Some of our best times together were never filmed. The same goes for some of our biggest struggles. I wish things happened in a different order and our relationship was not severely tarnished, and that it ended with the same respect for her that it began with. I owed Ariana better,” he explained.
“I am beyond sad that it ended the way it did,” he continued. “The choices I made hurt so many people. I acted in a way that clashes with who and how I want to be. I will continue to reflect and work on myself. I have work to do. I always have, and I always will.”
According to recent reports, Tom Sandoval and Raquel Leviss have reportedly shared their first kiss on camera following the cheating news, so it is not yet clear how fans will receive this days late and a dollar short apology from Tom to Ariana. Click Here for the latest Scandoval news and updates.
