Tom Sandoval is NOT dating Texas influencer Karlee Hale despite media reports to the contrary, TMZ has learned.
A rep for Tom tells us … the “Vanderpump Rules” star is just friends with Karlee and recently hung out with her because he happened to be in Austin performing with his band. The rep noted there were other people in their group at the time they were seen together.

The Sun published a TikTok video of Tom and Karlee seated at a table in a hotel restaurant last Wednesday. Tom was apparently trying to fly under the radar, wearing a white baseball cap with the brim covering his face.
The sighting reportedly came on the heels of Tom and his ‘VPR’ co-star Raquel Leviss calling it quits on their seven-month affair. According to Page Six, Raquel pulled the plug on their romance, quoting a source as saying, “Raquel dipped out. Sandoval is not for her.” However, PEOPLE reports Tom and Raquel’s relationship status hasn’t changed as they were never a couple.
Since that report last week, Tom and Raquel have yet to comment on the status of their relationship.

Back in April, Tom told paparazzi … Raquel was getting treatment at a mental health facility after the fallout from Tom’s much publicized break up with longtime girlfriend Ariana Madix.
Ariana was photographed Monday carrying boxes of her possessions out of the L.A. house she shared with Tom and loading them into a U-Haul moving truck.
