Connecting the dots. Bravo fans were quick to notice Tom Sandoval sporting a black eye in the Vanderpump Rules midseason trailer amid claims that his ex Ariana Madix punched him pre-Scandoval.The moment is being revisited after Tom, 40, made the revelation during his bombshell interview on the Tuesday, April 11, episode of the “Howie Mandel Does Stuff” podcast.“Obviously, she was very upset.

She freaking punched me and all this s–t,” he told Howie Mandel of a past attempt to break up with Ariana, 37, before news of his affair with costar Raquel Leviss broke on March 3. “A couple days later, I sit down and talk with her again, and she’s like, ‘I’m not letting you leave me.

You’re gonna have to me force me out of this relationship.’”Pump Rules’ season 10 midseason trailer, which was released on March 20, teased how the former couple’s explosive breakup will play out on screen.

Tom’s claims about Ariana punching him in the face seemingly line up with the teaser as he has a shiner while having a conversation with his Fancy AF Cocktails coauthor.“I wish we both would have tried harder,” the TomTom co-owner tells Ariana in the trailer, to which she responds, “You don’t deserve one f–king tear from me.”Following more clips of what’s in store for the Pump Rules cast — including a shot of Ariana seemingly screaming at Tom — the trailer ends with the Schwartz & Sandy’s cofounder asking her if she wants anything from the kitchen. “For you to die,” the Florida native claps back.Tom’s interview on Mandel’s podcast received plenty of backlash from his fellow Pump Rules stars, including former cast member Jax Taylor. “He hasn’t owned up to anything, he’s justifying everything,” he said during an April 11 appearance on Access
