Why is Tom Sandoval seeking a restraining order from Victoria Robinson?
In new court records filed on June 25, 2026, Tom Sandoval claims he was physically assaulted by Victoria Robinson during a heated confrontation, resulting in hazy vision. The Vanderpump Rules star alleges that Victoria attacked him on June 3, 2026, during an argument that turned violent. According to his court affidavit, Tom said she punched him so hard in the face that day that his vision went blurry and he suffered damage to his neck, ear, and jaw. The restaurateur stated:
“The impact of the blow was so forceful that it caused my vision to blur. I sustained a bruise near my temple and eyebrow ridge and bled from my ear and neck as a result of Ms Robinson striking me that night. The pain in my mouth persisted for two weeks, which prompted me to visit the ER to be evaluated.”

Tom Sandoval further stated that he had to experience significant pain for weeks after the alleged attack. In court documents obtained by TMZ, the restaurateur reportedly noted severe discomfort that required additional medical attention after the initial hospital visit. He wrote:
“Even after emergency medical evaluation ruled out a fracture, I continued to experience significant pain and a restricted ability to open my mouth. More than two weeks later, I am still unable to fully open my jaw, which has affected my ability to eat and has required me to seek further medical evaluation.”
