Ariana Madixhas a bone to pick withLisa Vanderpump.

“I saw something that Lisa said and it put me in the worst f—ing mood,” she says. “I got so angry about it.”

According to Madix, Vanderpump, Sandoval and Schwartz were doing an interview for a food blog when the interviewer asked the Toms about their involvement.

“The interviewer says, ‘So, you guys have been stepping up and really busy?’ And as soon as Tom starts to say, ‘Yeah, we’ve been working really hard on cocktails,’ Lisa interrupts and she goes, ‘Why don’t you tell them where you just were?’ ” Madix says.

“Like, you not only suggested that we go on a trip to Mexico, but now when we get back, you’re using it once again as an opportunity to trash Tom and Tom?” she continues, fuming, as the show cuts to footage of Vanderpump suggesting Sandoval and Schwartz take a few days off.

“If she claims you’re an idiot, then she’s basically saying I’m such an idiot that I would date somebody who’s like that,” she says. “And therefore I find it an insult to me.”

“Lisa and I have actually been closer than we ever have this year. But I do get punched. I’m a punching bag,” Sandoval acknowledges. “We’re both punching bags, Schwartz and I, for sure.”

Madix decides she’s going to confront Vanderpump about it while being “as respectful as possible.”

“[I’ll] just say, ‘You talk s— about your partners, when in reality they’re both really good at what they do and there’s a reason why you went into business with them. It’s ’cause they’re awesome,’ ” she says. “It’s like you’re not allowed to disagree with her, or else you’re on her s— list.”

Schroeder, who’s had her fair share of confrontations with the Bravo Housewife over the years, tells Madix she should be “totally f—ing prepared” heading into the conversation.

“Going to confront Lisa is the freaking worst,” Schroeder says. “I should know, I’ve done it. Legit, the idea of confronting Lisa is like the best laxative ever.”

“No matter what happens, no matter how old we are, what we’ve accomplished in life, we’ll never be equals with Lisa,” Madix says. “We all know that. But that doesn’t mean that we don’t deserve some level of respect.”
