When Tom Sandoval cheated on Ariana Madix with cast member Rachel “Raquel” Leviss, it shocked not just Vanderpump Rules fans but also beyond. After nine years together and buying a home, their world fell apart. They still live together until they can sell the house but have limited interactions.
Ariana’s career was tied to Tom through the Bravo show and a cocktail book they released together. Despite the scandal, Ariana has moved on with a new relationship. The Dancing With the Stars finalist is now dating Daniel Wai, marking a new chapter after her big heartbreak.
Daniel, a fitness trainer based in New York, started dating reality star Ariana Madix in April, as reported by Us Weekly. You can find him on Instagram with the handle @thestrongwai, where he shares meals and workouts. His website reveals a personal journey of overcoming teenage insecurities through a focus on fitness. After studying computer science, business, and math in college and working in business consulting, Daniel transitioned to become a full-time certified personal trainer.
He collaborates with other trainers, including Sage The Gymini, and counts professionals like doctors among his clients. Daniel not only exercises in the gym but also showcases his skills in the boxing ring.
Ariana and Daniel started sharing pictures after meeting at Coachella, and their relationship blossomed with moments in New York. Daniel showed unwavering support by attending Ariana’s performances on Dancing With the Stars, even sacrificing sleep and time.
Ariana praised his assistance in maintaining her home during her busy schedule. While Daniel might make a cameo on Vanderpump Rules, having no prior reality TV experience, he joined the cast on a trip to San Francisco, as reported by Page Six. Additionally, he showcased his bartending skills at Lindsay Hubbard’s birthday celebration from Summer House fame.
