The former Vanderpump Rules star Tom Sandoval is back in the spotlight after his girlfriend, Victoria Lee Robinson, hinted (Dec.15) at their breakup and suggested infidelity in a now-deleted Instagram Story. 

"Wow… you guys were right. Tiger never changes its stripes… he loves the best friends apparently," Robinson, 32, wrote, according to fan-captured screenshots. She added, "I feel like a fool. Completely heartbroken."  

The shocking post implied Sandoval, 42, may have cheated with one of Robinson's friends. Shortly after, Robinson made her Instagram account private, and the pair no longer follow each other on social media.

Sandoval began dating Robinson in 2023, following his infamous affair with Rachel "Raquel" Leviss during his nearly decade-long relationship with Ariana Madix. The scandal, which rocked the Bravo universe, unfolded on Vanderpump Rules Season 10, ultimately leading to Leviss leaving the show.  

Robinson, who has previously been linked to Leonardo DiCaprio, went Instagram-official with Sandoval earlier this year. Meanwhile, Madix has found love with personal trainer Daniel Wai, and Leviss has reportedly moved on with a "really smart" rocket scientist.  

As the drama unfolds in Sandoval's personal life, the Vanderpump Rules franchise is undergoing a major shakeup. Last month, Bravo announced the cast would be replaced by a new group of SUR employees for Season 12 –  marking the end of an era.  

Sandoval reflected on the series' legacy in an emotional Instagram post in November, writing, "The foundation of Vanderpump Rules was built on pure, honest, raw emotions… triumphs, struggles, and love that happen between a group of real friends and our relationships."

Adding to Sandoval's challenges, the reality star and his business partner, Tom Schwartz, revealed that their restaurant, Schwartz & Sandy's, is shutting down after two years in business.   

Bravoholics are hardly shocked by the rumors of Tom Sandoval's alleged cheating, with many echoing the sentiment, "once a cheater, always a cheater." Fans have quickly rallied behind Robinson, convinced Sandoval's toxic behavior is nothing new. However, some find it hard to fully support Robinson, believing she knew the risks of dating him after his past scandals. If the rumors are true, fans are questioning how Sandoval can recover and find genuine love.
