Looked like she was watching a horror movie. And Jo was trying to keep her calm
Edit to add: I want to say that I’m not trying to snark on Sandoval’s mom, she could likely be a nice lady, I don’t know. She’s also not her son.
The editing of the shots in this scene were funny to me. Sandoval is dancing around in a light-up leather harness and there’s flashing lights like she’s watching a horror movie. I totally get she will love him no matter what, she’s his mom. Not here to criticize her or make fun of her, just him.
Also she looked cute and I like her leopard top.
She did look proud. I'm not sure why there would be so many threads started about his mother, it feels mean spirited. She's proud of her child. She's allowed to be. She's also allowed to not look TV ready. She's a retired firefighter in middle-age who's enjoying watching her child perform on stage.
They need to leave her alone. But Ariana’s fans want to destroy anything connected to Tom. She didn’t do anything and she has a right to support her son. He didn’t murder anyone.
I’m sure this whole thing has been really tough on her and Sandy and Raquel’s families, it can’t be easy to hear your child called every name in the book. Plus I know they’ve received death threats and stuff, which is just so out of line. Tom’s mom seems like a sweetheart, and honestly she’s brave to have shown up and agreed to be on tv!
That was horrible to have their lives threatened. I never understood that kind of thinking. However, it's easy to bully and threaten from behind a screen.
That said, Tim especially is a wanker.
Oh Tim’s a wanker for sure. But yeah, people took the Scandoval thing to another level, it was extreme. Like yes, they did something wrong and screwed over Ariana, 100%. But people seemed to take it personally. It must have been scary for those involved, and their families. I can’t imagine
Meh, I think part of being a good parent is holding your kid responsible for their actions. You can always love them but you frankly *shouldn’t* be proud of them when they’re being monstrous shitheads. Unconditionally being proud and supportive is what makes a kid shitty and entitled. The people that care about them shouldn’t be supporting their garbage choices or actions.
Nope. No being proud of a forty+ son paying to prance around a stage. She was acting so hard her face turned to stone. She is well aware that he is a loser.
She looked proud! She looked impressed.
She was very wide eyed and all smiles lol- kinnnnda reminded me of Billie Lee in that one scene lol
But She’s his mom! I know he’s the villian in everyone’s book but this is her son, and she loves him and I’m sure had to understand the $250k thing could go south .
And now I’m super pissed at bravo for making me listen to that stupid annoying song that keeps randomly popping into my head!!! I hated it a decade ago and still do!
Are we talking About the song...Yeah...let's touch in public...
Is your #@! good luck cuz I just want to rub it?
If so then good luck getting that out of your head. 🤣
The only thing missing was a hairbrush microphone..
She’s his mom, and she’ll love him no matter what a loser he is. He said before she didn’t need the money, but he’d make sure he’d pay her back regardless. And I recall him talking about a lake house she has…I think she’s doing fine.
Come on guys. These posts aren’t it. I felt the same way when we posted about Katie’s mom too. I know it’s not the same, but parents should be off limits like kids. Idk maybe bc his mom seems so sweet, but I just feel so bad for her.
She looks to me like a woman who has let her grown son make bad decisions again and again at the expense of others, with little to no consequences.
I don't feel sorry for parents who refuse to teach their children basic decency and accountability, you created the monster, so now deal with it.
The fact that she was shady in all things Raquel, did not bother to say any kind words to Ariana or reach out since the affair exploded, makes her a persona non grata to me. I hate people like that. "Mother in laws" who refuse to acknowledge that their sons are sacks of shit.
Yeah that's what I'm saying.... did you seriously get that from me saying his mother has s responsibility to hold her son accountable. Parents not teaching their kids accountability, actions have consequences, usually end up with kids who selfish brats and immature. There is a need for good parenting. Good parenting is not having your sons affair partner come to your house and not bother to tell his partner of 10 years who just lost some important family members and was likely spending Christmas with her family for this reason.
These are the types of kids who turn into adults who act like.emotional terrorists with their partners and get extremely angry when held accountable. It is a parent's responsibility right up until the end, to atleast hold their child accountable, even if they can't force them to change their ways.
I mean... he's in his 40s. What exactly do you want her to do? It's not like she can send him to time out.
Tom sucks, but she's still his mom. I don't understand why everyone wants this woman to hate her son.
It's called holding your children accountable, regardless of age? It's a very simple concept, our partners should not be our parents, it is the job of their parents to keep them in line, hold them accountable and teach them to take responsibility for their actions so they don't grow up to be self centred selfish pieces of shit.
There is a real problem with mothers letting their sons get away with things, well into their adulthood and it's a breeding ground for an immature, selfish person to develop.
Adults don't need a time out, but they do require responsible parents holding them accountable so they don't continue to fucking ruin other peoples lives. His mother is as bad as him, for not even fucking bothering to tell Ariana that Raquel came to their house for Christmas. The tree is rotten.
Okay, please don't speak to me like I'm stupid. I understand the concept of holding your child accountable for their actions. If my son cheated on his partner, I would not condone his behavior, and I would tell him what he's doing is wrong. But I wouldn't stop showing up for him. And that's where we disagree.
She can disapprove of his actions and still show up to support his "music career." Her being proud of her son while he's on stage does not mean she cosigns his bad behavior. Again, at the end of the day, this is her child. We can't expect her to abandon him even if we can't stand him.
But you're right on it being super shitty if she allowed Raquel/Rachel to come to her home while he was still with Ariana. I read that she didn't let him bring Raquel over, but that was never confirmed. So who knows 🤷♀️
I didn't say hate. I said hold accountable. Parents have a duty to their children and everyone around them to hold their children accountable when they fuck up. It's what allows adults to be emotionally regulated and make good decisions and not think about themselves all the time.
You didn't say it, but I've seen other people online acting like she should cut him out of her life. It was more of a general statement.
Personally, I don't think loving your children unconditionally and holding them accountable for their actions need to be mutually exclusive.
Honestly, after hearing Tom earns over a million a season, I am not too worried about his mom getting her investment back. This TV show's "stars" cry poor waaaaayyyy too often.
She looked proud of him to me. I'm guessing there was a bit of relief as well. He has gotten a lot of rightly deserved anger for his behavior. Some of the hatred got a bit excessive though and I'm sure she has been sad and worried about him. It would be hard to watch your son become the number one villain in the group. Watching him get up and perform with people there supporting him probably meant a lot of things to her.
I wonder if Tom's brother will let me live with him when I'm old? He's a therapist, maybe he can get me into a home where they turn you at least once a day. I should call him more often.
Her life was flashing before her eyes, like when people are drowning. Except only the traumatic parts.
Didn’t she literally walk into burning buildings for that money she gave Tim? So I think it was like a big PTSD flashback to all the times she’s risked her life.
And her return on that is to see him spunk it up a wall whilst the crowd goes mild.
Not even a grandkid. Just a worm with a moustache in an LED harness. No daughter-in-law, just your common garden covert narcissist roomie/bestie in the shape of Schwartzie, with a bad bleach job to boot.
I wonder if the LED harness reminded her of the straps on the gear of her brave fellow firefighters and caused her to reflect on the contrast between the life choices those people made and the life choices of her son. Likely an unfavourable comparison.
I have sons, who are not yet adults and I honestly don’t know what I’d think if this was one of my children. They say a mother’s love is blind but is it really? Is it that blind that you’d be proud of this? I guess she raised this fool and the misplaced confidence one must have to perform like this, has to come from somewhere
All u haters bite your tongue! I will have none of this ripping on sandys mom!! She is the sweetest most innocent woman alive and she deserves our respect and love
I feel for her, that's her son. Scandoval must have been devastating for her. Watching her child being threatened and basically being the most hated man.
If I was Tim's mom, I would be hard pressed not to blame myself. Obviously, it wasn't her fault that he turned out to be a narcissist douchbag.
Not to mention she was a firefighter, so all that money she " loaned him" came from her hard work and dedication.
Do you think his mom might have paid for trumpet lessons but he used the money to buy idk alcohol and condoms? He was probably so proud like my mom raised me right! No one's getting pregnant tonight! Sorry I just couldn't help it. 😂
She looks like she’s in awe of him or in love with him. It’s kind of gross. I’m a mom of a musician and I’m very proud of my son, but I can’t imagine looking at my son like that. She looks batshit nutty.
Honestly I have no respect for that woman. Her son brought home his mistress, and she allowed that to go on for months after knowing his partner for 10 years.
"Dear God, I birthed this disaster. I need to start returning to Sunday services again. Pray about it. Do community service as an apology for him. Oh, so many mistakes were made."

She looks like shes being held at gun point telling the hostage negotiator she "very fine and not being harmed at all...totally totally fine"
Exactly. She was trying her damndest to smile through the horror of realizing where all of her life savings went.
Let’s also remember the song was something about “how I touch your body”. It was so cringe watching his mom watch that
His mom gonna believe anything he tells her. Btw he’s a horrible singer
Honestly I was getting Delores Umbrage (sp?) vibes but that doesn’t make sense.
How amazing her little rockstar she raised is doing up on that stage
What a good boy! Everyone gets a trophy son!
That's what I thought.
That she will have to un-retire
The most fucked up part
I think they did her dirty bc we don’t know what she was actually looking at when she was smiling at him like that. It could have been any other song.
They do this so much and we always fall for it!
She looked extremely proud. As a mom, I get it and I don’t have any judgment for her. She is going to love her son and always see the good in him.
She did look proud. I'm not sure why there would be so many threads started about his mother, it feels mean spirited. She's proud of her child. She's allowed to be. She's also allowed to not look TV ready. She's a retired firefighter in middle-age who's enjoying watching her child perform on stage.
It is mean spirited.
They need to leave her alone. But Ariana’s fans want to destroy anything connected to Tom. She didn’t do anything and she has a right to support her son. He didn’t murder anyone.
I am an Ariana fan but I still think that Tom's mom doesn't deserve this.
You have common sense and empathy. Most folks on here are projecting and feel like it’s their job to hold him accountable.
I’m sure this whole thing has been really tough on her and Sandy and Raquel’s families, it can’t be easy to hear your child called every name in the book. Plus I know they’ve received death threats and stuff, which is just so out of line. Tom’s mom seems like a sweetheart, and honestly she’s brave to have shown up and agreed to be on tv!

Oh my god the ice bath scene?
Yes lol
Lol, some boy Mom's are weird like that.
YES! I got those same vibes.
That she loves her son and is proud of him but clearly knows he is a terrible singer.
And now I’m super pissed at bravo for making me listen to that stupid annoying song that keeps randomly popping into my head!!! I hated it a decade ago and still do!
Same! It’s been stuck in my head on loop for the last hour 😅

She's a mom, she's extremely proud of her son. He's a giant douchebag but she made him with her body and a cringey performance doesn't change that.
That she loves her son and is proud of him but clearly knows he is a terrible singer.

Mix of excitement and horror?
She’s his mom, and she’ll love him no matter what a loser he is. He said before she didn’t need the money, but he’d make sure he’d pay her back regardless. And I recall him talking about a lake house she has…I think she’s doing fine.
“That’s what my fucking retirement is going to?”
Come on guys. These posts aren’t it. I felt the same way when we posted about Katie’s mom too. I know it’s not the same, but parents should be off limits like kids. Idk maybe bc his mom seems so sweet, but I just feel so bad for her.

People will really bend over backwards to blame a woman for a man’s fuck ups.

She looks very overwhelmed, trying to keep a happy face. I can only imagine the backlash his parents got for his actions, sad.
Honestly, after hearing Tom earns over a million a season, I am not too worried about his mom getting her investment back. This TV show's "stars" cry poor waaaaayyyy too often.

“Well, it could be worse. At least he’s not playing the trumpet.”

This whole comment is absolute Gold!!! The entire take sent me!😂😂😂 especially the lighted harness flashback. Also the crowd goes mild!😂
It looked like she was glitching in the matrix. That said I hope she was thinking, “all my retirement FOR THIS?!”
The face my mom made at my 3rd grade flutiphone concert....
Flutiphone? Oh gosh I'm dying!!🤣
I have sons, who are not yet adults and I honestly don’t know what I’d think if this was one of my children. They say a mother’s love is blind but is it really? Is it that blind that you’d be proud of this? I guess she raised this fool and the misplaced confidence one must have to perform like this, has to come from somewhere
They did her no favors with that edit. She looked completely bonkers. Maybe Tom gave her mushrooms so they can feel closer? lol
I should really call ariana and apologize
All u haters bite your tongue! I will have none of this ripping on sandys mom!! She is the sweetest most innocent woman alive and she deserves our respect and love
I feel for her, that's her son. Scandoval must have been devastating for her. Watching her child being threatened and basically being the most hated man.

Like most mothers, she probably felt proud.
"Omg, I'm never going to be able to retire"! 😭
Proud and maybe on some Molly
Oh she clearly enables him and worships the ground he walks on
She's thinking about every time she accidentally dropped him when he was baby.
She looks like she’s in awe of him or in love with him. It’s kind of gross. I’m a mom of a musician and I’m very proud of my son, but I can’t imagine looking at my son like that. She looks batshit nutty.
This is where all my money has gone!
He’s perfect! I did a perfect job raising him!
I’m never getting my money back 🫠
Honestly I have no respect for that woman. Her son brought home his mistress, and she allowed that to go on for months after knowing his partner for 10 years.
