Ariana Madix gushed over 'dedicated' Tom Sandoval right before finding out he was cheating on her
WEST HOLLYWOOD, CALIFORNIA: In a cruel turn of events, Ariana Madix called her ex Tom Sandoval "dedicated" just moments before she discovered the TomTom co-owner was cheating on her. 'Vanderpump Rules' star Madix, 37, made the statement during a Q&A with the audience that Sandoval, 39, organized before his fateful 'Tom Sandoval & The Most Extras' concert at TomTom in West Hollywood on Wednesday, March 2.
When one of his bandmates read aloud the question, "Do you think the show ['Vanderpump Rules'] accurately portrays you?" Sandoval began to answer the question, but quickly handed the mic over to his then-girlfriend Madix, who then began to rave about him.

Ariana Madix called Tom Sandoval 'dedicated'
Madix answered the bandmate's question, “In some ways, yes, in some ways, no.” She then added, “I think the way that they show how dedicated and extra [he is], because I’m looking at the word ‘extra…’, reported Page Six. In what seemed like a couple's thing, Madix said directly to Sandoval, "But when I say dedicated to everything that you do, and the way that you commit to everything you do - that part is accurate."
Madix then went on to say, “But I think there are some things that are not accurate,” before explaining, “Like, for example, you get ready really fast. I take forever. But I think that on the show, you would think it was the other way around.”
A fan requested, "Give her a kiss!" Madix agreed, playfully prompting her former beau, "Yeah, give me a kiss!" Sandoval agreed and fulfilled the fan's request.
Shortly thereafter, tragedy struck when Madix, who was sitting in the front row during Sandoval's performance, saw a sexually explicit message on the 'Schwartz & Sandy' co-owner's cell phone. When she investigated further, she saw the conversation history, from which the 'Vanderpump Rules' veteran learned that Sandoval had been "communicating inappropriately" for months.
After the concert, the two went out together, after which it came out that Madix had thrown Sandoval out of the Los Angeles apartment they shared. The news reportedly left Madix "heartbroken" and she deactivated her Instagram account.
