It was revealed that 39-year-old Tom Sandoval had been cheating on his longtime girlfriend Ariana Madix of nine years for several months with castmember Raquel Leviss. The news broke on March 3rd and later a public apology to was issued to Ariana five days later.

“I want to apologize for my actions and my choices foremost to Ariana, and to my friends and the fans so invested in our relationships,” Raquel wrote in a March 8 Instagram statement. “There is no excuse, I am not a victim and I must own my actions and I deeply regret hurting Ariana.”

It is unclear how the reunion announcement will affect Scheana Shay who will also in attendance. Earlier this month, Raquel was granted a temporary restraining order against her costar that will require her to stay 100 feet after rumors of an alleged punch surfaced online from Shay.

In the early hours of March 2 sources say Scheana took a wing to the extend that Raquel had a “black eye and cut/scar to left eyebrow, blurred vision & swelling to left eye.”

Scheana has confirmed that she will be attending the reunion. On her Sheananigans podcast, “As far as I know, I’m fully intending on being there in person.”

There has been no confirmation if Tom will be at the reunion as well. Tom admitted in the new season trailer “I wish we both would have tried harder,” Ariana fired back with, “You don’t deserve one f–king tear of mine.”

Vanderpump Rules airs Wednesdays at 9:00 PM on Bravo.

The article attributes it to the organizers, which covers you.) — **Creator Frankie LaPenna fights ‘Terminator’ robot in first human vs. robot bout** SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. — A man stepped into a fighting cage with a 6-foot humanoid robot, and the robot came out on top. Robotics startup REK staged the human-versus-humanoid kickboxing demonstration in San Francisco on Friday, Sept. 18, putting creator Frankie LaPenna inside a cage with the machine. The opponent was the 80-kilogram (176-pound) EngineAI T800, a humanoid built to look like the Terminator. LaPenna, wearing a helmet and chest protector, landed a few punches before the robot kicked him in the head, according to the official video description. Footage shows the robot kicking him across the cage as spectators outside the ring looked on. “We just made history with the first Human VS Terminator robot fight,” REK posted on X on Sept. 20, adding that more fight footage is coming. The “first” label comes from REK and LaPenna and has not been independently verified. The robot was not fighting on its own. REK’s robots are not autonomous fighters, and the event showcased remote control and mechanical stability rather than independent combat strategy. The bout was part of REK’s work on a virtual reality combat game in which people remotely control humanoid robots to compete against each other. REK founder Cix Liv came to robotics from virtual reality and is building a sport that links virtual competition to physical machines. The LaPenna match pushed his format beyond the company’s usual robot-versus-robot fights. Online, viewers debated whether a trained fighter would fare better, with some predicting human-versus-robot bouts could reach the UFC within five years. — Note: AP datelines use a dash after the city.
