LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: One of the bandmates of Tom Sandoval has called out Victoria Lee Robinson by accusing her of violently and emotionally abusing the reality star for months.

Jason Bader, the manager and drummer of Sandoval's band, spoke with the Daily Mail while claiming to see the model punching, kicking and spitting at Sandoval “several times” while they were touring.

He said, “She is the worst person I have ever met in my entire life. I have never met someone so two-faced, manipulative and evil. It was sick watching it all go down. I have never experienced anything like it.”

The bandmate further asserted that he “never saw Tom retaliate in any physical way.”

“Tom is someone who has the ability to defend himself and physically match up with people because he's a wrestler. Even when people are getting rough with him, like fans, he wants to de-escalate the situation,” Bader explained, before adding, “I heard him yell back at her, but that's it.”

As per Bader, the 34-year-old had behaved violently earlier also. He mentioned an October 10 incident that happened in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, between the ex-couple. The alleged fight got so out of control that security and personnel had to intervene.

Calling Robinson “fame-hungry, ruthless sadist”, Bader stated, “She is a very messy person and would be so violent with him. She scared me. She will do whatever it takes for the betterment of herself.”

Victoria Lee Robinson allegedly wants to be famous like Tom Sandoval's ex Ariana Madix

The drummer also told the Daily Mail that Robinson wants to become like Sandoval's ex-girlfriend Ariana Madix, whose breakthrough came after the 43-year-old cheated on her with her best friend and ‘Vanderpump Rules’ co-star Rachel 'Raquel' Leviss.

“I am going to ruin you. I am going to get the Ariana treatment. I hate you. I don't want to be with you,” he claimed to hear Robinson saying this to Sandoval.

The longtime pal of Sandoval has even alleged that Robinson “didn't want Tom to be a part of anything else except to focus on her.”

“She separated him from family, friends, businesses and opportunities because it didn't involve her. It affected everybody,” Bader asserted.
