Scheana Marie Shay Speaks Out Defending Texting Ariana’s Mom About Tom

Last week on Vanderpump Rules, it was revealed that Scheana Marie Shay had been talking to Ariana Madix’s mom and talking about Tom Sandoval and more. Reality Tea is now sharing what Scheana had to say about it and she doesn’t think she was wrong at all. Scheana Marie is defending her decision and reminding everyone about how long ago it was that this all went down.

Scheana actually went to her Instagram page to share her thoughts. Here is what Scheana Marie Shay had to say about it.

“Please try to remember this was in July and a lot has changed and happened since then. So before people jump to conclusions, I want to say that Ariana’s mom reached out to me first. I responded to a concerned mother about my best friend. That’s all. I would never reach out first nor would I ever do anything to intentionally to hurt them. Also, the texts mentioned were exchanged in early December 2014 to give you some perspective. A time when Tom and I were not in a good place.”

So this all went down actually over a year ago and just now are fans of Vanderpump Rules watching it all happen. Scheana Marie wants to make sure everyone remembers that the show is not shot in real time or even close to it. Scheana Marie is revealing that she was not in a good place in her life at that time, but viewers will never see what all went down. She went on to explain that she never said Tom Sandoval was a bad boyfriend and wasn’t trying to sabotage their relationship at all. Scheana Marie even shared that she has apologized to them more than once for what went down. Now Ariana’s mom went to Twitter and here is what she had to say about it.

I never had concerns about Ariana. She hasn't changed in 30 years?. My "reaching out"to Scheana was to say sorry I won't see you at Xmas.

Tom Sandoval also wanted to share his thoughts on Scheana Marie texting Ariana’s mom and went straight to Reality Tea to do it. Here is what Tom had to say about how it went down.

“Then when Scheana tells Ariana that her mom was worried about her, and questioning whether I was a good boyfriend? Yeah, that’s another lie. (laughs) Ariana’s mom obviously worries about her daughter sometimes. But it wasn’t anything to do with me or our relationship. But Scheana just kind of let loose about me!”

Tom shared that Ariana was certain that her mom would never do that to her and she was right. Tom also shared that a few things are shot out of sequence here and there so they look like they happened in a way that it really didn’t go down. It has to be hard for them all reliving this stuff months after it really went down and when they have all moved on past it. Tom did feel betrayed by Scheana Marie though. Tom shared that viewers will see more later this season and then revealed his thoughts.

“My biggest thing with Scheana is that I’ve bent over backwards for her as a friend. I’ve gone above and beyond this season behind the scenes with things that I can’t really talk about, and it was just really heartbreaking to see her on this constant attack. For reasons that I still can’t understand. We just had a big target painted on our backs. And I don’t know if we’ll ever know why.”

Do you think that Scheana Marie was wrong to message Ariana’s mom about Tom Sandoval? Do you think her apology is enough? Sound off in the comments below on your thoughts and don’t miss new episodes of Vanderpump Rules on Mondays on Bravo.
