Ariana Madix looked less than happy as she got ready to eat fast food on Saturday following her breakup with Tom Sandoval.

In photos taken exclusively by Page Six, the “Vanderpump Rules” star, 37, was seen arriving back at her Los Angeles home with a large brown bag filled with McDonald’s and a fountain drink in tow.

The blonde beauty, 37, kept things cozy with light gray sweatpants and a dark gray sweatshirt, which she paired with Uggs and a small purse.

But Madix was in no mood to be photographed as she flipped the paparazzi the bird and appeared to shout “fk off” as she and a male friend walked through the front door.

Elsewhere in the neighborhood, her now ex-boyfriend was photographed wearing all black and smoking a cigarette while running errands.

The Tom Sandoval & The Most Extras frontman wore big headphones and kept his eyes on his phone.

The observations came just one day after the news that Sandoval has been cheating on Madix with her close friend, Raquel Leviss.

Madix herself — who began dating Sandoval in 2014 — only found out about the couple’s “full-blown affair” on Wednesday after seeing a sexually explicit video of the former beauty queen appear on Sandoval’s phone.

Madix soon learned that the two had been “communicating inappropriately for months” and promptly dumped the Schwartz & Sandy co-owner.

An insider revealed to Us that Sandoval, 39, has actually been seeing 28-year-old Leviss since “last summer,” and that their engagement included sleepovers at Sandoval and Madix’s shared residence “when Ariana has been out of town.”

The trio’s co-star James Kennedy confirmed the information, saying the illicit romance began “7 months” ago, which would have been July 2022.

The DJ, who was previously engaged to Leviss, also claimed the duo’s escapades sometimes took place while Madix was at home “sleeping”.

We’re told that Sandoval and Leviss, who have been secretly wearing matching necklaces, “want to be together” and that Madix is ​​”heartbroken.”

“Ariana was blindsided by the cheating,” a source told us, adding that she had “no idea there were any problems” in her relationship and feels “betrayed by her friend.”

While Madix has since deactivated her social media accounts, her co-stars have blasted the new twosome online.

Leviss has yet to speak about the situation, while Sandoval posted a lengthy statement on Instagram, writing in part: “I fully understand and deserve your anger and disappointment towards me, but please leave (Tom) Schwartz my friends and family out of this situation.”

Side Six can confirm that Bravo is filming the latest drama to be included in Season 10, which is currently airing.

“Most of the cast is expected to gather and film (Saturday) to share their reactions to Raquel and Sandoval’s affair,” a source close to the production told Us on Friday. “For the most part, everyone is shaken and completely devastated for Ariana.”

That includes Lisa Vanderpump. In fact, she asked Andy Cohen to keep the yet-to-be-filmed reunion to just “one” episode, as she’s “not sure (her) heart is up to it.”
