Kristen Doute is not one to say, "I told you so," at least not to Ariana Madix regarding 'Scandoval.' However, she won't grant the courtesy to Bravo and those who questioned her credentials for writing a memoir/self-help book about red flags.

On this week's "Sex, Love, and What Else Matters," podcast guest Josh Peck asked Kristen Doute if she feels "so vindicated" by her ex Tom Sandoval cheating on Ariana Madix. It was a hard no from the host because her friend is "so hurt," adding, "nobody is winning here."

She conceded that she feels vindicated from Bravo and everyone who thought she "was [expletive] nuts" to write "He's Making You Crazy." The author insists that the book was not about all men but about her exes, including Sandoval's toxic behavior.

Kristen Doute Accused Her Ex-Boyfriend of Gaslighting Ariana after She Learned of His Affair

Doute "never expected" her ex to do something as awful as what transpired in the 'Scandoval' scandal to Madix, his partner of almost ten years. She said she would not have been shocked if she was on the other end of an infidelity controversy of that magnitude when they were still together because they were "young dumb, and broke" and "cheated on each other," but not Madix.

She said on the "The Viall Files" podcast on March 16 that the TomTom founder was blaming his infidelity on the bartender.

Josh Peck and Doute met while she was dating his friend; they only identified as 'Greg' after she arrived in Los Angeles. She eventually left Greg for Sandoval in 2007. Doute admits that she went back and forth between the men and dated them simultaneously at one point before settling on Sandoval.

During the second season of "Vanderpump Rules," which was shot in the spring of 2013, their six-year relationship ended. At the reunion that aired in February 2014, Sandoval confirmed his ex's suspicions that he hooked up with Madix while they were still together but insisted it was only a kiss.

He also admitted to sleeping with a Las Vegas bottle service server toward the end of their relationship. Doute confessed to sleeping with Jax Taylor while she and Sandoval had a rough patch.

Kristen Doute slammed Sandoval for "gaslighting" Madix through texts after it came out that he was sleeping with Rachael 'Raquel' Leviss. She said on "The Viall Files" podcast on March 16 that the TomTom founder was blaming his infidelity on the bartender.

Asked on Monday by a TMZ photographer if he regrets cheating on his longtime partner with a SUR colleague, he said, "Hindsight's always 20/20, man."
