As reported by Page Six, Sandoval spoke with paparazzi while hanging out in Los Angeles with best friend Tom Schwartz. The 41-year-old revealed he was not in a relationship with aspiring artist Tii and that she was “just a friend.”

“A new relationship? You see me with somebody one time and all of a sudden we’re in a relationship?” Sandoval asked. “Hey look, me and Schwartz are out right now, maybe we’re in a relationship now!”

“Tii is a good friend of Billie, who introduced her to Tom,” an insider said. “Tom and Tii had a lot of fun during their night out, and there’s definitely a connection.”

Despite the hinted connection, Sandoval repeated that he and Tii were only friends. “I just want more positive female energy in my life,” he remarked.

In addition to Sandoval and Raquel, Vanderpump fans blasted Schwartz for taking “zero accountability” for his friend’s behavior. Additionally, Ariana has admitted that she and Schwartz are not friends after Scandoval.
