Yesterday it was announced that Tom Sandoval was suing his ex girlfriend Ariana Madix, you know, the one he cheated on with her friend (Rachel Leviss). The backlash was immediate and swift – and today he announced that the lawsuit is being dropped and that he fired his attorney for “”misleading”” him.
“Late Tuesday afternoon, my attorney, Matt Geragos, whose advice I trusted, called me about the Cross-Complaint in the lawsuit against myself and Ariana,” the failed musician, who filed a lawsuit against Madix for accessing explicit videos of Raquel Leviss, wrote via Instagram on Thursday, July 18. “He assured me that the action was customary and strictly preventative in these types of lawsuits and urged me to agree to it.”
“In no way am I suing Ariana. The action against Ariana brought on my behalf is being removed. I had no ill will or vindictiveness toward Ariana,” he said. “Now, by removing both the Cross-Complaint and the attorney who recommended it, I hope to get through this case quickly, so that Ariana and I can both finally MOVE ON with our lives.”
Both Madix and Sandoval are currently being sued by Rachel Leviss in a revenge porn lawsuit. Leviss alleges Sandoval recorded her without her consent, capturing explicit video of her during private Facetime calls, and she accuses Madix of then sharing those videos with others.
