Vanderpump Rules star Tom Sandoval has sparked controversy with his recent comments in a new interview with The New York Times. Sandoval, who has been under scrutiny for his infidelity on the reality show, made a cringe-worthy comparison during the interview, drawing parallels between his own scandal and high-profile events involving O.J. Simpson and George Floyd.

Reflecting on the attention his scandal received, Sandoval remarked, ‘I witnessed the O.J. Simpson thing and George Floyd and all these big things, which is really weird to compare this to that, I think, but do you think in a weird way it’s a little bit the same?’

The author of the profile, Irina Aleksander, attempted to interpret Sandoval’s remarks, suggesting that he was trying to convey the surreal experience of being at the center of a national discussion and a major news story. However, the comments have raised concerns, with a Bravo publicist expressing unease about Sandoval’s statements and seeking clarification on his comparison to O.J. Simpson and George Floyd.

Sandoval’s remarks come amidst ongoing scrutiny following his infidelity, which has been a focal point of the new season of Vanderpump Rules. The controversy has only added to the attention on the reality show, with viewers eager to see how the situation unfolds.

The fourth episode of Season 11 of Vanderpump Rules is set to air tonight on Bravo, continuing to captivate audiences with the unfolding drama.
