On Saturday, June 27, Sandoval, 42, and Robinson, 33, were both in the company of police at the Los Angeles area residence they both shared as they separately removed items from the home. During one heated moment captured by TMZ, a woman – presumed to be Robinson – could be heard telling Sandoval, “I f***ing hate you. Just like all of your ex-girlfriends, nobody likes you.” (Sandoval previously had a contentious breakup with Ariana Madix after he confessed to cheating on her with their Vanderpump Rules costar Rachel “Raquel” Leviss.)
As he left the premises, Sandoval briefly spoke with TMZ about why he and Robinson were both at the property at the same time.
“Victoria and her father were just issued an immediate move out order, a restraining order … The police are here to make sure [they leave],” he explained.
Asked if he thought the dispute would be resolved “today,” he swiftly replied, “No.”
Law enforcement sources told the outlet the police were present simply to keep that peace between both sides and that no laws were broken.
Us Weekly has reached out to representatives for both parties for comment.
On Thursday, June 24, Sandoval requested a domestic violence restraining order against Victoria and her father, J. Will Robinson, accusing them of “verbal and physical abuse” during a confrontation on June 3.
The Traitors star wrote a lengthy declaration to the court where he accused Will of attacking him. He also alleged that Victoria struck him in the face during a heated confrontation over whether she was recording him without permission.

“I am seeking a restraining order against [Will] based on the verbal and physical abuse he has perpetrated against me, the most recent incident being on June 3, wherein he grabbed me and restrained me, chased me into the bedroom and punched a 12-inch hole in my spare bedroom door where I was barricading myself,” Sandoval wrote in his impact statement. “I am afraid of [Will] and his daughter and request the Court’s protection.”
Per Sandoval, Will “put his face in the hole in the door and smiled telling me he will ‘f***’ me up, ‘destroy’ me and called me a ‘motherf***er.'” Police arrived and arrested Victoria, with Sandoval acknowledging that he helped bail her out of jail.
“Ms. Robinson was arrested when it became clear that she had attacked me. As I saw her being arrested, in the heat of the moment, I asked the police officers the process by which she could be bailed out,” he wrote. “I even foolishly accepted Ms. Robinson’s phone call from jail and lent her mother financial assistance for the bail. In hindsight, I deeply regret that decision.”
Sandoval made a litany of other allegations of physical and emotional abuse against the Robinsons, as well as accusing Victoria of tampering with his devices and using a GPS tracker on his car.
An alleged video of the incident subsequently emerged, which appeared to show Sandoval shoving Will into a lit fire pit during a scuffle. He then seemingly fled into the home, with Will following him.
On Friday, June 27, Will filed his own request for a restraining order against Sandoval, alleging that he suffered a ruptured disc in his back, as well as a broken thumb and elbow and a wound on his heel. A court ruled against him initially, stating on Friday that it needed “more information at a properly noticed hearing” before any final decision could be made.
