He opened up about their unique bond on the May 7 episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.
What Happened with Tom Sandoval and Carl Radke?
On the episode, host Andy Cohen asked Sandoval if any Bravolebrities had offered him support or friendship following his breakup from Ariana Madix. Sandoval said that he didn't get much in the immediate aftermath of the split, but that at BravoCon 2023, Carl gave him some advice.
"More recently at BravoCon, Carl said, 'You know, hang in there' and whatever," Sandoval said. "He was really sweet."
At the time, Carl was also newly single. His engagement to Lindsay Hubbard ended in September 2023, and their split has been featured on Summer House Season 8.

What Did Lisa Vanderpump Say About Tom Sandoval?
After discussing his bond with Carl, Sandoval shared that his former SUR boss, Lisa Vanderpump, has also been someone he's gone to for advice and support in the last year.
"I can't really think of anybody else off-hand," he said to Andy about those who have been there for him, before offering an answer. "Obviously Lisa."
He then reacted to the claim that she had "defended [him] too hard" in the past.
"I don't think she was really defending me, I think she was just trying to just calm everybody down..." he added. "I think she was just more like, 'This is a human being.'"
