A actuality star from Bravo’s “Vanderpump Guidelines,” a by-product present from “The Actual Housewives of Beverley Hills,” Madix was on the forefront of the present’s greatest scandal in its 10-year run, which exploded in real-time again in March.

It was then when information broke that Madix’s boyfriend and fellow solid member Tom Sandoval had been having a months-long affair with their different co-star, Raquel Leviss.

“I am completed with something fundamental,” Madix says within the advert. “Shifting ahead, I am searching for one thing premium. One thing long-lasting. And Duracell is assured to final 12 years. That is significantly better than 10.”

If anybody’s going to money in on Scandoval, why should not or not it’s Madix?

With each model deal she’s signed, Madix has began to obtain criticism for her choice to make a revenue on Scandoval. She addressed it within the interview for her new cowl with Glamour, telling the publication that she’s stated sure to just about each single partnership as a result of, on the finish of the day, cash is cash. 

“Now we have no generational wealth in our household,” Madix stated. “I need to make sufficient cash to have the ability to handle my mother and my brother and another members of the family who might or might not want it. I by no means need to fear about it ever, ever, ever. So I’ll work as a lot as potential to not should.”
