Kristen Doute claims Tom Sandoval actually had the nerve to cuss at Katie Maloney‘s mom, Teri Maloney, after she took aim at Raquel Leviss for making out with Tom Schwartz after his and Katie’s split.
Following Wednesday’s episode of Vanderpump Rules, which featured a heated argument between Katie and Raquel at an event for Katie and Ariana Madix‘s sandwich shop, Kristen Doute welcomed Janet Elizabeth, a friend of the cast, to her podcast to discuss the matter.
“I had a front-row seat to Katie and Raquel having at it, and it was really intense. And there was a little stuff that I’m surprised they actually cut out, including how Tom Sandoval really spoke horribly to Teri Maloney,” Janet shared on Sex, Love and What Else Matters, via TooFab.
“He said, ‘Shut the f-ck up,'” Kristen revealed.
“He was like very rude to her. If it was my mom, I would hit him,” Janet continued. “Tom went so hard that, at the time, I was like, ‘Wow, Sandoval really hates Katie. He’s only doing this out of hatred for Katie.’ Now I realize it was out of support for his girlfriend.”
Kristen said that Sandoval’s treatment of Terri, specifically how he spoke to her, was completely “insane.” And, when it came to Schwartz, she was highly disappointed by his failure to intervene on behalf of his former spouse‘s mother.
“I was so appalled that Schwartz would not — for one time, Tom Schwartz — you step in, and you go, ‘Dude, you do not speak to my ex-mother-in-law [like that],'” she stated.
On the Pump Rules episode, Sandoval called Teri “tacky” for fighting Katie’s battles. But, as Janet pointed out, Teri had every right to support her daughter at the event, which was held in honor of her and Ariana’s new business.
“Katie’s mom is there in support of her, and if Raquel wants to dive into the situation, pull Katie aside in front of her mother and start telling her what she’s doing wrong in her divorce, fully expect the mother to step in,” Janet noted.
Kristen when on to wonder, “how the f-ck” Raquel was raised after watching her roll her eyes at Teri as she spoke to her about pursuing Schwartz. As she put it, Kristen couldn’t believe Raquel “had the balls to disrespect someone’s mother at her own event.”
“B-tch, step down,” Kristen advised.
Also, on the podcast, Janet recalled pulling Raquel aside to tell her, “You’re going to look horrible [for] all the stuff she was saying,” and, “You look like you have no empathy right now.”
Kristen’s comments about Sandoval’s actions against Teri come after Teri and her son, Joey, blasted Sandoval and Raquel in a series of tweets.
“This might be the only time I use the hashtag at the end here but I had to speak up about these garbage humans. You act tough and talk to my mom and my sister like that when you are on camera, but you would never dare do that when your ego wasn’t being boosted,” Joey wrote after the episode.
“Thank you so much Joey for all your love and support!” Terri replied. “It was not shown in tonight’s episode, but you step in and defended me upon Sandoval’s vitriol attacks … not only one time, but 3 times!”
The Vanderpump Rules season 10 finale airs Wednesday, May 17, at 9/8c on Bravo.
