The Valley’s Kristen Doute Defends Tom Sandoval Against Drug Rumors After What Fans Call Signs Of Withdrawals as Tom Speaks

Tom Sandoval has been in the news quite a bit as of late, thanks to his stint on The Traitors season three. However, following Jax Taylor admitting that he has struggled with cocaine addiction, some fans have wondered if Tom had also partaken in the substance, given that they both starred on Vanderpump Rules together for so long and because people have long been suspicious of Tom’s behavior. He recently denied the allegations, and Kristen Doute did the same in his favor.

As mentioned, Tom’s relation to Jax isn’t the only reason some fans question whether he has used cocaine in the past. Notably, many Traitors viewers noticed Tom sweating profusely and other signs that are often linked to a person going through withdrawals from a substance like cocaine. 

Tom was recently on The Viall Files. Naturally, he covered a wide range of topics while on the podcast, but Nick Viall also brought up how some fans believe he was either on cocaine or was going through withdrawals after having quit. 

According to Tom, “You can ask Jax, I don’t do f*cking coke. I have never done coke, I will never do cocaine. It’s not my jam, it’s not what I do. I’ve never done that sh*t.”

Because of his history of not always having the best relationship with the truth, many fans were skeptical and believed he was trying to save face as he continues to revive his image. However, Kristen commented on a TikTok video of the interview share by TVShowsAce and said, “he’s not lying.”

This is notable because the Valley star has a strained relationship with Tom at best, which means she has no reason to lie for him. 

It’s also important to note that his girlfriend, Victoria Lee Robinson, was also on the podcast, and she denied the accusations of drug use as well. Regarding his sweating, Tom has previously said that his luggage didn’t arrive in Scotland and that the wardrobe department gave him a super thick wool sweater to wear. 

Fans can watch Tom’s most recent episode of The Viall Files on all platforms.
