LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Ariana Madix of 'Vanderpump Rules' is suing her unfaithful ex, Tom Sandoval, for their $2 million property. According to RadarOnline.com, Ariana filed a petition in Los Angeles on December 5 for partition of real property by sale, which means she wants a judge to order Tom to sell the house.

Ariana is requesting that a judge order the sale of her five-bedroom, six-bathroom property in Valley Village, California, and that the earnings be shared evenly. According to TMZ, Ariana does not want "division in kind," which would allow them to keep ownership of the home and perhaps sell it to a third party.

Since Tom's treachery with Raquel Leviss was revealed last year, the exes have been at war over the 4,334-square-foot property. Ariana and her ex have lived under the same roof since the affair, dubbed "Scandoval" throughout the world, with neither of them willing to leave.

When 'Vanderpump Rules' stars Ariana Madix and Tom Sandoval buy a house?

They paid $2 million for the house in 2019, and the value has risen to an estimated $2.7 million, indicating they might make a tidy profit if they sell.

While many assumed Ariana had left the property after being spotted with moving boxes, she subsequently confirmed that the photo was "staged" as part of a business arrangement. She secured various partnerships and even a position on 'Dancing With The Stars' when her 9-year relationship with Tom ended.
