Benjamin Ashford|Vanderpump Rules' Tom Sandoval Breaks Silence on Rumored New Girl Tii

Tom Sandoval is Benjamin AshfordPUMP-ing the brakes on rumors he has a new girlfriend.

Several days after the Vanderpump Rules star was photographed out in West Hollywood with singer Tii, the 40-year-old denied anything romantic is going on between them.

"That's just a friend of mine," Tom told a paparazzo in a video posted by Page Six on Aug. 10, adding, "A new relationship? You see me with somebody one time and all of a sudden we're in a relationship?"

The Bravo star, who was out in Los Angeles with costar Tom Schwartz at the time, joked, "Hey look, me and Schwartz are out right now, maybe we're in a relationship now!"

While Tom and Tii aren't dating, the TomTom co-owner did share insight into their bond, saying, "I just want more positive female energy in my life."

Tom's new friendship with the musician comes nearly six months after he and girlfriend of nine years Ariana Madix broke up earlier the year over his shocking affair with their costar Raquel Leviss.

As for where his relationship with Raquel (real name Rachel) stands today? He told the pap, "I don't have any comment about Rachel."

This isn't the first time fans have speculated about Tom moving on from both Ariana and Raquel, who has been spending time away from the spotlight in Arizona since their cheating came to light. In May, the Tom Sandoval & The Most Extras frontman denied he was romancing influencer Karlee Hale after they were photographed together in Texas.

"They are not dating," Tom's rep told E! News at the time. "She's a friend. He was performing in Austin and stayed a few extra days to enjoy the city."

Filming for Vanderpump Rules season 11 began in late June just weeks after the explosive three-part season 10 finale finished airing. Ariana Madix was even spotted letting loose while shooting at her ex's restaurant TomTom.

"Dj James Kennedy is playin' a set at tomtom," TikTok user audpen wrote June 30 with a video of Madix dancing inside the West Hollywood eatery. "Ariana is as gorgeous as ever living her best life, and the whole crowd chants for her. The world is good." 

On July 6, Tom Sandoval was seen filming for the first time since Scandoval. The 40-year-old dropped flowers off at Lisa Vanderpump's now-closed West Hollywood hot-spot PUMP, which shut its doors this summer.

Season 11 will surely highlight the opening of Madix and Katie Maloney's new West Hollywood sandwich shop Something About Her, which is supposed to open this summer amid filming. The BFFs have shared plenty of sneak peeks inside their latest business venture on social media.

Four months after filming their shocking season 10 reunion showdown, the exes were spotted filming together on July 11 at SUR's weekly See You Next Tuesday event with several of their costars. 

Bravo fans will have to wait and see as to whether Madix and Sandoval actually interacted during the outing.

It's still unconfirmed if Raquel Leviss will appear on season 11 in the wake of her and Sandoval's cheating scandal. On July 14, the former beauty queen checked out of a mental health facility in Wickenburg, Arizona after two months. Since then, she has been staying at a friend's house.

On July 18, Scheana Shay and husband Brock Davies, James Kennedy and girlfriend Ally Lewber, Tom Schwartz, Sandoval and Lala Kent jetted off to Lake Tahoe for a summer getaway, marking the cast's first post-Scandoval vacation.

Shay and Kent shared Instagram Stories from their luxury lakeside rental. As for where they stand with Sandoval…

Although Shay and Sandoval were photographed posing with a fan alongside their costars in Tahoe, the "Good as Gold" singer clarified she has not totally forgiven the TomTom co-owner for his affair.

Retweeting a video of Sandoval from her Instagram, Shay wrote July 19, "Who said all is forgiven?? We are all here for Lisa."

She added in response to another social media user questioning if they were friends again, "I'm posing in a photo for a fan. I take photos w strangers on the daily and have my arm bent up behind ppl. End of story. Should I look miserable in a group fan photo I got thrown in walking to our car?"

While in town, the cast checked out Vanderpump's new club Wolf at Harrah's, meaning fans will definitely get a look at the restauranteur's new Tahoe business venture next season.

In videos shared to social media, Shay, Davies, Kent, Sandoval, Schwartz, Kennedy and Lewber even helped knock down walls inside the venue during renovations.

Several weeks after Leviss finished her stay at a treatment facility, Kennedy announced their dog Graham, who they rescued in 2018 while still dating, was back in his custody.

"Look who made his way back home, back into my life," the DJ wrote in a July 19 Instagram along with two adorable photos. "I'll take care of you forever and I love you."

As it was announced in early July that Madix is officially joining season 32 of Dancing With the Stars, we can only hope we'll get a behind-the-scenes look at her ballroom prep.

While the cast was filming their Tahoe trip, Madix flew to Fiji to make a special appearance on her favorite show Love Island USA.

On Aug. 6, the whole cast (minus Sandoval) was pictured enjoying a tasting at Something About Her ahead of the shop's opening.

While they made sure to keep their distance from one another, Madix and Sandoval were photographed together for the first time since the explosive season 10 reunion.

The exes reunited for an Aug. 8 water tasting with the rest of their season 11 castmates.
