Vanderpump Rules’ Scheana Shay Announces “Raw, Vulnerable” New Chapter

The BCU (Bravo Cinematic Universe) was rocked on March 3, 2023, when it was confirmed that Tom and Ariana had ended their nine-year relationship amid the revelation that he had had a seven-month affair with Raquel.

“I made mistakes, I was selfish, and made reckless decisions that hurt someone I love,” the TomTom co-owner wrote in an apology on Instagram March 8. “No one deserves to feel that pain so traumatic and public.”

He added, “My biggest regret is that I dishonored Ariana. I never meant to disappoint so many people, including our loving families and friends.”

Raquel also issued a public apology to Arianasaying she had “no excuse” for her actions. In a follow-up statement, Raquel addressed the future of her relationship with Tom.

“I have to take care of my health, work on self-growth and take time to be okay with being alone,” Raquel told E! News in a statement. “I care about Tom, and I don’t want to label anything or predict what’s next. Right now, I need to heal.”
