Tom Sandoval apologized to Ariana Madix on Instagram
About a week after the affair came to light, Sandoval posted her first apology on Instagram, admitting the allegations were true. In his second statement, the Schwartz & Sandy bar co-owner apologized directly to Madix and “everyone I’ve hurt in this process.”
He wrote: “I made mistakes, was selfish and made reckless decisions that hurt someone I love. No one deserves to feel this pain so traumatically and publicly… My biggest regret is that I disgraced Ariana. I never wanted to disappoint so many people, including our loving families and friends.
Sandoval also opened up about his nearly nine-year relationship with Madix, saying he regretted “things happened in a different order.” He wrote that he wanted their relationship to end “with the same respect for her that it began with.”
The bar owner concluded the statement with, “I am beyond sad that it ended like this. The choices I made have hurt so many people. I acted in a way that clashes with who and how I want to be. I will continue to reflect and work on myself. I have work to do. I always have and I always will.

Leviss also clarified that despite the scandal over their affair and her relationship with Madix, she still “sincerely” cares about Sandoval. She wrote: “Knowing how many people we have hurt, I need to understand my choices and learn how to make better ones.”
