Too little, too late.

Tom Sandoval and Raquel Levis had been planning to tell Ariana Madix about their affair for “weeks,” multiple sources confirmed to Page Six, revealing the scandalous news on Friday.

However, the delay eventually found Madix on her own when she was looking for her ex-boyfriend’s phone.

It’s unclear if Sandoval, 39, and Levis, 28, are going to tell Maddicks, 37, on camera about the “Vanderpump rules,” but sources said the idea of ​​coming clean had been “floating around for weeks.”

A representative for Sandoval declined to comment, while a representative for Lewis did not immediately return requests.

Page Six exclusively reported Friday that the new couple had been having a “full-on affair” for months behind Madix’s back, and sources say they now “want to be together.”

An insider said Maddicks was “blindsided by the scam” because she and Sandoval had been “publicly affectionate” recently and had no problems with their relationship.

The blonde beauty discovered the affair on Wednesday night after her boyfriend went to support her at a cover band show.

On Page Six, at the end of the event, Madix finds a sexually explicit video of Levis on Sandoval’s phone.

Sandoval was spotted packing her suitcases in a friend’s car, though her rep says the reality star has yet to leave her home.

As Page Six exclusively revealed on Saturday, the disgraced Bravo star backed out of a previously scheduled interview with us on March 8 after news of her affair broke on Friday.
