Tom Sandoval is showing remarkable courage by coming forward as a domestic violence survivor. His willingness to document his injuries, file charges, and pursue legal protection demonstrates that abuse doesn't discriminate — it can happen to anyone regardless of gender or public profile.
Sources close to the situation say this isn't the first time Robinson's temper has flared violently. 'Everyone in their circle knew she had a hair-trigger,' one insider told us. The irony isn't lost on Vanderpump fans: Sandoval, once the villain who cheated on Ariana Madix with Rachel Leviss, is now the victim seeking justice.
Robinson was arrested on June 3, 2026 and bonded out the same day. She has a court hearing scheduled for Thursday, June 25. According to court docs, Sandoval sustained bruises near his temple and eyebrow ridge, bled from his ear and neck, and experienced mouth pain persisting for two weeks that prompted an ER visit.
The man who gave us 'Scandoval' is now living out a very different kind of nightmare — locked out of his own home while his alleged attacker stays put. Buckle up, folks. This story has more twists ahead.
In a stunning role reversal that no one saw coming, Tom Sandoval is asking for protection from the woman he calls his girlfriend. Victoria Robinson was arrested on June 3 after allegedly brutalizing the "Vanderpump Rules" star so badly he needed medical attention — and she's already out on bail while he remains displaced from his own home. According to court documents obtained exclusively by Page Six, the violence erupted after a night of drinking on June 3.
Sandoval claims Robinson's father initiated the altercation, grabbing him and punching a hole in the drywall of the spare bedroom where the reality star had barricaded himself for safety. But it was Robinson herself who allegedly delivered the knockout blow — a punch to Sandoval's face that left him bleeding from his ear and neck, with vision so blurred he could barely see straight. "I sustained a bruise near my temple and eyebrow ridge and bled from my ear and neck as a result of [Robinson] striking me that night," Sandoval alleges in the docs.
"The pain in my mouth persisted for two weeks, which prompted me to visit the ER to be evaluated." He claims she hit him with such force his vision literally went dark momentarily. The 43-year-old Bravo personality says this wasn't an isolated incident — he's alleging a months-long pattern of physical abuse dating back to their relationship's start in February 2024. Here's where it gets truly unhinged: even after Robinson was arrested and bonded out on June 3, Sandoval admits he picked up her phone call from jail.
He also provided financial assistance to her mother for bail money. "In hindsight, I deeply regret that decision," he states in the documents. A representative for Sandoval did not respond to requests for comment.
Robinson's alleged abuse wasn't limited to punching his face and striking his neck — she also allegedly hurled a full Gatorade bottle at him and subjected him to verbal assaults throughout their tumultuous relationship. Now, despite being the one who called police and filed charges, Sandoval claims he's been "completely displaced" from his own residence while Robinson and her father continue living in the rental home he funds. He's been bouncing between hotels and a friend's house since June 3.
Sandoval appeared in court Thursday for a hearing on the matter, where records confirm Robinson also had a scheduled appearance. He is seeking an emergency move-out order against both defendants, citing genuine fear for his safety if forced to return while they remain at the residence. "I am gravely concerned for my safety and well-being and I need to regain access and control over my home, vehicle and belongings," he states in the docs.
This isn't Robinson's first public meltdown involving Sandoval, either. In December 2024, she posted a scathing social media tirade suggesting he'd cheated on her — then deleted it and walked it back entirely. "I had a true misjudgment in a situation," she wrote in an Instagram Story at the time. "Tom did not do anything." The restraining order now filed against her suggests whatever "misjudgment" Robinson experienced has escalated far beyond a regretful social media post.
