on Vanderpump Rules panel on Friday, Sandoval, 40, appeared bold and showed some skin in a denim kilt.

When Sandoval arrived on stage in a denim ensemble, he was not greeted kindly at the panel. The crowd immediately booed Sandoval and he could barely get his words out as he tried to speak. “It feels good to be here in Vegas. It’s BravoCon,” he said as the crowd erupted in boos.
The audience reaction followed the end of the show’s tenth season, in which Sandoval and longtime girlfriend Ariana Madix broke up after nine years. Their breakup came after his months-long affair with their friend and VPR actress Rachel “Raquel” Leviss.

Lisa Vanderpump was quick to engage in crowd control and said of the scandal: “I love them all individually, so much. They’ve all screwed up at some point — maybe not to this extent. I’ve seen them grow and I think the magic of this show is that they’ve had intense relationships with each of them long before the show started — and with me, too. So I can’t judge them by one episode.”
During the panel, Madix admitted that she knew filming the final season with her ex-boyfriend would be “difficult” and “weird.”
“I knew I was going to have very strong and extremely negative feelings, but I think last year showed me that I can do hard things, but we did it,” Madix said.

James Kennedy admitted that it was “one of the hardest years” for him to record. But he added: “I think this season is going to be one of the craziest yet.”
Although Kennedy (31) admitted that filming was difficult, he joked with Sandoval and challenged him to a push-up competition in front of the audience. Sandoval’s lack of an undershirt ended up working in his favor, as the two quickly began their contest. In the end, Kennedy emerged as the champion in their impromptu challenge.
