UPDATE July 19, 2024: Tom Sandoval has dropped his lawsuit against Ariana Madix, one day after filing.
On Thursday, July 18, Sandoval returned to Instagram with a statement regarding his decision to drop the suit; in it, he reveals that he has also removed one of his attorneys from his legal team.
“Late Tuesday afternoon, my attorney, Matt Geragos, whose advice I trusted, called me about the Cross-Complaint in the lawsuit against myself and Ariana,” Sandoval wrote, referencing Raquel Leviss's revenge porn and invasion of privacy lawsuit against himself and his ex, Ariana Madix, which was filed in February. “[Geragos] assured me that the action was customary and strictly preventative in these types of lawsuits and urged me to agree to it,” Sandoval added. “The words ‘New Lawsuit’ and ‘Suing’ were not articulated to me. I should've done more of my due diligence on the matter. Upon realizing what this action actually means, I have removed Matt Geragos from my legal team."
“In no way am I suing Ariana,” his statement continues. “The action against Ariana brought on my behalf is being removed. I hold no ill will or vindictiveness toward Ariana. Now, by removing both the Cross-Complaint and the attorney who recommended it, I hope to get through this case quickly, so that Ariana and I can both finally MOVE ON with our lives.”

Tom Sandoval, after cheating on Ariana Madix, his partner of nine years, with their mutual friend and costar Rachel Leviss, spent the entire 11th season of Vanderpump Rules claiming that he had taken accountability for Scandoval. But he has still decided to sue Madix for accessing explicit videos of Leviss on his phone without prior “authorization.” And he seems to have deleted his Instagram. Sure.
