Tom Sandoval is breaking his silence in the wake of the recent “Vanderpump Rules” that oust former co-stars Stassi Schroeder and Kristen Doute.
Sandoval, 36, opened up about the layoffs to KMOV4 in St. Louis, Missouri, giving herself plenty of time to resolve the matter after Faith Stowers’ claims that the couple once reported her to police for crimes they did not committed.
“It’s crazy, it definitely changes things and honestly, we are going to have to wait and see what happens,” he said while visiting his hometown.

The Stowers incident with Schroeder, 31, and Doute, 37, occurred in 2018.
Amid the recent unrest, the mixologist said he wanted to become a beacon of change by motivating awareness of the current cause of racial equality.

“I’m thinking, you know, I’m a famous bartender. At least I can use my platform, my followers on social networks to generate awareness and visibility in these places, “said Sandoval.
In the days after Schroeder and Doute’s layoffs, as well as their reality co-stars, Max Boyens and Brett Caprioni, after racially callous past tweets appeared, Bravo’s great wig, Andy Cohen, called the move as the “right decision” of the network.

“I will say this about what happened. I totally agree with Bravo’s decision, I think it was the right decision,” Cohen told listeners on his SiriusXM show “Radio Andy” on June 10. “And I want to remind people because I’ve been receiving so many tweets and messages and whatever about ‘Vanderpump Rules’ and ‘Southern Charm’ and other programs.”

Clarifying his position at the network entity, Cohen explained: “I’m not, I’m not, I feel like I remind people of this all the time, I’m no longer in charge of programming at Bravo.” I am not an executive producer of ‘Vanderpump Rules’. I have nothing to do with the program, except that I love it and that I host the meetings. “
The establishment’s owner and reality star Lisa Vanderpump also wrote her own thoughts on the matter at the time via Instagram.

“As we have seen sadness so devastating that it has developed globally, we all have a role to play in creating a kinder and fairer society,” he wrote, in part. “My hope is that this generation will treat itself with respect and humanity, and realize that actions have done so; and it should have consequences. I love and adore our employees and I am deeply saddened by the lack of judgment that has been demonstrated. “
