The hits keep on coming for Ariana Madix. Following remarks by some of her Vanderpump Rules costars saying they barely hear from her anymore after her post-Scandoval fame, her brother Jeremy Madix is now echoing the same sentiment.
In a new shocking interview, Jeremy, Ariana’s younger brother, hinted at a current estrangement from his sister, who he says he hasn’t heard from “in months.”
After Jeremy was reportedly seen hugging and sharing a laugh with Tom Sandoval at the recent The Valley premiere party, he was asked about it while appearing on the Pump Rules Podcast. Jeremy tried to play coy about the situation before dropping the bombshell about his sister.
“You might be hallucinating. But we can find out it’s a world hallucinating on season 12. The story is to be told,” said Jeremy on the podcast, via Breaking the Rules Pod on TikTok. “I need to talk to Tom. I would love to talk to my sister but I haven’t heard from her in months so we’ll just keep on keeping on dude and we’ll deal with the punches as they come in. For now, I’ll plead the fifth. You may or may not have seen some things.”
Jeremy, who made some appearances on Vanderpump Rules season 5 while working at SUR, continued, “And depending on how long it takes for me to hear from my sister will determine on whether I stick to that stance or not.”
As for Tom, Jeremy opened up about the fact that he was very close to Ariana’s ex while Tom and Ariana dated for almost 10 years, admitting they still needed to talk some things out.
“Obviously me and him need to have a conversation. There’s a lot of things that are left unsaid that I never got to say,” he stated. “People need to realize that I lived with both of them for a long time so it affected me too. I lost a friend. I lost someone that was a mutual relationship of love.”
Despite his comments, Jeremy insists he has Ariana’s back no matter what.
He shared, “Obviously, I’m always going to stand by my sister.”

Just last week, Lala Kent confirmed the rumor that she and Ariana got into a nasty feud at the recently filmed upcoming Vanderpump Rules season 11 reunion. During this season of the Bravo series, Lala suggested Ariana was self-absorbed.
And then earlier this month, Lala also accused Ariana of not telling her costar and business partner Katie Maloney about snagging a role on Broadway, questioning why Katie had to find out along with the rest of the world.
Additionally, Scheana Shay also echoed Jeremy’s sentiment during a segment for the Vanderpump Rules Aftershow, stating that she doesn’t hear much from Ariana these days.
“I don’t hear from her as much. I’ll say that. She returns less and less texts. I know she’s more and more busy but I’ve seen a change in [her],” Scheana admitted. “She never asks, I don’t think, how anyone else is doing.”
Vanderpump Rules season 11 airs Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
