Ariana Madix celebrates boyfriend Daniel Wai’s birthday, declares him “The Most Handsome Man I Know,” and one-year anniversary

Ariana Madix called her boyfriend Daniel Wa ‘the most handsome man I know’ as she wished him a happy birthday via Instagram on Saturday.

The 38-year-old Vanderpump Rules star shared an adorable photo of herself and the hunky fitness trainer smiling and touching noses.

Madix — who recently gave fans an update on her sandwich shop opening — revealed that the sweet snap was taken during the couple’s recent Coachella trip.

‘happy birthday to the most handsome man i know who always lets me have the first and last bite,’ she wrote.

The couple first sparked romance rumors last April following Madix’s explosive split from her boyfriend of nine-years, Tom Sandoval.

Madix and Wai first met at a mutual friend’s wedding but they were seen kissing at last year’s Coachella festival.

Their Coachella rendez-vous came just weeks after it was revealed that Madix’s ex-boyfriend Sandoval had been engaging in a months-long affair with Rachel Leviss, a friend of Madix’s.

Madix and Sandoval had been dating since 2014 and were living together in a $2million Valley Village home when the affair was exposed in March 2023.

Her new man Wai made his debut on Vanderpump Rules this past January as he appeared on a FaceTime call with Madix.

The couple, who reside in both Los Angeles and New York City, have since shared insight on their long-distance relationship.

In a recent episode of VPR, Madix spoke about the positive aspects of their bicoastal romance.

She stated via Bravo: ‘I feel like long distance has been really good for us in a lot of ways. Because we’ve gotten to know each other just talking to each other all the time’

Wai went on to express that his busy schedule meant that he would have otherwise had a difficult experience with setting aside time to see his girlfriend.

‘happy birthday to the most handsome man i know who always lets me have the first and last bite,’ she wrote

He said of dating long-distance: ‘It’s good and bad, right? I work so many jobs. I’m busy. I work seven days a week.’

However, the fitness trainer added that not being in the same city as Madix sometimes ‘sucks because I don’t see you.’

The Vanderpump Rules season 11 finale premieres next Tuesday and Bravo recently revealed that the cast will not be filming season 12 over the summer.

The hit show, insiders told TMZ, typically begins production each May and films through July.

Bravo executives ‘feel they need to give the cast a break and let their lives breathe a bit’ following ‘Scandoval,’ which has led to more than a year of headlines, as well as ongoing litigation, resulting from the messy split.

The storyline surrounding the cheating scandal, sources told the outlet, ‘has run dry at this point,’ following 14 months of the fallout of the affair.

Producers on the show want to let the cast relax before cameras begin rolling again, sources told the outlet, leading to new storylines to explore in its post-Scandoval reboot.

The change in schedule is not an indicator the series could be in peril, as insiders stressed to TMZ that the show is NOT canceled.

Madix has been earmarked to host the series Peacock reality series Love Island USA, the outlet reported.

Production sources told the outlet that Madix’s schedule for that series, based in Fiji, was ‘an additional factor in the decision’ Bravo made to delay Vanderpump Rules filming.

The show’s 11th season reunion was called ‘incredibly intense and electric’ by Bravo’s Andy Cohen, according to the outlet.
