Tom Sandoval confirms he IS moving in with new girlfriend as he reflects on life a year on from Scandoval

   

Over a year after his affair with a castmate plunged him into controversy, Tom Sandoval is moving on from Scandoval. 

The reality star, 42, has found love again after two-timing his ex-girlfriend Ariana Madix, 39, with fellow Vanderpump Rules star Rachel Leviss.

Sandoval and Leviss, 30, were vilified by viewers and castmates alike, and the fallout from the drama became a national obsession amongst Bravo fans.

But nowadays, Sandoval is looking towards a new future with girlfriend Victoria Lee Robinson by his side. 

Sandoval has been dating the model for the past year, and the couple are now taking the next step in their relationship - moving in together.

Speaking with DailyMail.com at the Vanderpump Dog gala on Friday, Sandoval and Robinson confirmed their plans to cohabitate: 'Yeah, we're in the middle of handling all of that stuff right now,' Sandoval said.

As fans will remember, Sandoval was still living with ex-girlfriend Madix in the $2M Valley Village home they purchased together after their dramatic split. 

While she eventually moved out and found her own place, the home has long remained a contentious issue between the two that even led to a lawsuit filed by the Madix.  

Recently Sandoval revealed the infamous house was finally going on the market, but when speaking with DailyMail.com, admitted they had not yet pulled the trigger.

'Not quite yet but we're getting there,' he said when asked if they had listed the residence. 

While Scandoval thrust Sandoval into the national spotlight, nowadays he's 'laying low' and keeping busy with his band, relationship, and restaurants. 

'We've got Schwartz and Sandy's, we've got Tom Tom, touring with the band, obviously awesome relationship with Victoria here,' he said. 'I've just been staying busy, just laying low!'

Only a year ago, things were looking much bleaker for Sandoval's restaurants

In the immediate aftermath of the affair revelation, fans took their anger out on the two restaurants Sandoval runs with pal Tom Schwartz, Schwartz & Sandy's and Tom Tom.

Schwartz & Sandy's was vandalized by angry fans and the Yelp pages for both restaurants were hit with negative reviews.  

When asked how businesses are currently faring since the controversy, he said they still have their 'ups and downs', adding 'it's never a dull moment.' 

Sandoval previously updated fans on his life with Robinson and the Valley Village home during a recent episode of his podcast, Everybody Loves Tom.

'The house is going on the market,' he said.  'Selling the house, getting it ready.'

As for his relationship with his girlfriend, he said: 'Victoria and I are moving in together.' 

'We've got Schwartz and Sandy's, we've got Tom Tom, touring with the band, obviously awesome relationship with Victoria here,' he said of his life nowadays. 'I've just been staying busy, just laying low!
