Tom Sandoval‘s ex-girlfriend is speaking out after their alleged domestic dispute.
Last month, the Vanderpump Rules alum filed for a restraining order against Victoria Lee Robinson and her father, Will Robinson, following an alleged altercation at their shared home in the Hollywood Hills on June 3. The former couple, along with the dad, got into a heated argument outside by a fire pit. Security footage obtained by TMZ showed Sandoval getting physical with Will when the father tried to step in after the reality star rushed Victoria for seemingly recording him. Tom then shoved Will into the lit fire pit before running inside and being chased.

From there, Sandoval claimed the dad punched a hole through his bedroom door. A drunken Victoria allegedly hit him in the head so hard that it impacted his vision:
“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. The pain in my mouth persisted for two weeks, which prompted me to visit the ER to be evaluated.”
Victoria was arrested that night, and Sandoval was awarded dual temporary restraining orders against the model and her father, who were ordered to vacate the residence, which Tom alleged he was paying for. The pair then filed their own temporary restraining orders against the Bravo personality, insisting Leonardo DiCaprio‘s ex wasn’t the aggressor in the situation. Their requests were ultimately denied for now.
Victoria and Will aren’t giving up, though. The father and daughter have retained the McCune Law Group to represent them amid this legal battle. Cory Weck, lead attorney at the firm, said in a statement on Thursday:
“Victoria came to us because she needed someone in her corner. What’s been reported doesn’t match the allegations set forth in our client’s filings, and we intend to prove that. McCune Law Group represents people who have been wronged, bullied and then blamed for it. Victoria Robinson is not the first woman to find herself in that position, and we intend to make sure her story gets heard.”
As for Victoria, she issued her own statement through the McCune Law Group to slam the “false narrative” about the DV situation:
“This is my home. We are both on the lease, I paid the first month’s rent and deposit, surprised him with the keys and virtually every item in it is mine. I have filed my own legal action because I have my own account of what happened. I cannot allow a false narrative to control my future.”
At this time, Sandoval hasn’t responded to her statement. Reactions? Let us know in the comments (below).
