"Also, generally speaking, and historically, girls are better cheaters than guys," he said

He later corrected himself and explained he meant to say women are likely to be traitors after the season 3 cast recalled his infamous affair with his former co-star Rachel Leviss while dating Ariana Madix.

Fans reacted to Tom Sandoval's comments online and hilariously reacted to the same. One wrote on X:

"I’m DYING!!! And wasn’t he the one that CHEATED and was a TRAITOR to his gf??? He’s so funny."

"Tom Sandoval is a villain to everyone who knew him before me, but for Traitors…. This man is HILARIOUS," a fan commented.

"It’s the fact that they chose to keep this in the edit and didn’t edit it out that killlsssss me," a tweet read.

Fans of The Traitors US season 3 felt Tom Sandoval was changing the public opinion about himself with his presence on the show:

"Hot take: Tom Sandoval is slowly winning the people back, and I fear no one wants to admit it," a person wrote.

"please forgive me for what i’m about to say. i’m not mad at tom sandoval anymore. this show really made me like him and i hope he learned his lesson. i hope i don’t live to regret this. i was his biggest hater at one point," a fan commented.

"I forgive you because SAME. I actually really liked Sandoval before Scandoval, and I think that’s why I was so mad at him. (Tyra voice I was rooting for you) I thought this show would make me hate him more but I’m back to at least liking him," a tweet read.

Fans of The Traitors US season 3 further said:

"Me too. He doesn’t seem so sinister anymore in fact he seems very simple minded and actually not arrogant. The cast makes fun of me a lot and he’s unaware of it. He may even make it far. The favorite is Zac’s younger brother who is just unfairly hot! Who knew Sam was smart?!," a person wrote.

"Tom Sandoval going on Traitors was the greatest career move that man could have made, I’ve gone from never wanting him on my screen again to needing him on every reality competition show moving forward," a fan commented.
