Ariana Madix and Tom Sandoval set to end legal battle.

Ariana Madix and Tom Sandoval have reached a legal settlement over the sale of their shared California home.

Their longstanding dispute stemming from their very public breakup three years ago.

Page Six confirmed on Wednesday, January 14, the two reached an agreement.


The Two Have a Final Court Date

The outlet added that Madix filed a notice of settlement.

The agreement is said to be “conditional,” and would require “the satisfactory completion of specified terms” within 30 days of the date of the settlement.

However, the two have a final status conference on Feb. 5. If the agreement falls through it would result in a trial on Feb. 17.

Madix previously filed the lawsuit in January 2024 to try to force the sale of the home. Sandoval wanted to keep the home, and he claimed he offered to buy her out of the property.


The Two Split in 2023

For fans who have followed Madix and Sandoval’s story from the beginning, the news of a potential settlement may be as welcome as it is meaningful.

The two became fixtures in reality television culture through their roles on “Vanderpump Rules,” where their dynamic — both together and in the aftermath of their split — was a central focus for viewers.

The home became a big issue in the aftermath known as Scandoval, where the now 43-year-old cheated on Madix with their co-star Rachel “Raquel” Leviss.

While appearing in an episode of Howie Mandel’s podcast in April 2023, Sandoval revealed that the two use a mediator to make sure they wouldn’t see each other while in the home.

“[Ariana’s] in the house. This is a big house. We have a go-between. We text when we’re coming and going,” he explained. “The house is not listed yet, no. [Ariana’s] really busy right now, she’s obviously blowing up. I’m really happy to see that. I’ve been busy as well trying to get things together.”

In the years since their breakup, both Madix and Sandoval have continued to build their individual careers.

Madix has focused on expanding her presence beyond reality television, launching projects in design, hosting and other creative endeavors.

Her evolving public persona reflects her determination to define herself on her own terms — crafting a narrative of personal strength, resilience and reinvention.

Sandoval, for his part, has continued his work in music and other creative pursuits.

Though his post-split journey included navigating public perception and professional adjustments.
