‘Vanderpump Rules’ Star Tom Sandoval Addresses Pit Stains On Peacock’s ‘The Traitors’: “I Looked Rough”​on January 24, 2025 at 11:50 pm

Tom Sandoval is addressing his pit stains on Peacock‘s The Traitors after a video of him on the competition series went viral.

The Vanderpump Rules star took to social media to explain why he was sweating profusely.

“Man, that video, I looked rough. I also felt like shit,” Sandoval said on Instagram Stories. “I mean, I had, like, over 24 hours of travel, including an eight-hour layover, which made my immune system go to shit and cause the domino of problems. I’m sure you could tell my eye was swollen because I gotta stye in my eye, and the stress and the weakened immune system caused canker sores, sore throat.”

Sandoval also revealed that on top of all his health issues arriving in Scotland to film The Traitors Season 3, the airline lost his luggage.

“I was at the mercy of the wardrobe department, which, by the way, they did a great job,” he said.

Sandoval was wearing a green cardigan and a gray t-shirt on the series. He takes the sweater off at one point, revealing the massive pit stains.

“The day that they gave me the thickest wool sweater I’ve ever worn,” he recalled. “And man, that thing, I was sweating my ass off. It was hot in there. And well, I’m only human.”

He added, “At least I can laugh at it now, as you guys all have.”

The Traitors is a competition series in which contestants, known as the faithful, work together on missions to win a prize of up to $250,000 while trying to uncover the secret players working against them to banish them from the game.

Peacock drops new episodes of the reality competition every Thursday.
