Katie Maloney opened up about her failed marriage with Vanderpump Rules costar Tom Schwartz in a recent interview.
Katie says she should have walked away from the marriage a long time ago.
“This whole thing of like, I asked for boundaries with Tom, like, ‘Hey can you not maybe make out with people that are on the show with us or in the friend group?’ And then people were saying, ‘Well you dumped him. You’re the one who asked for the divorce.’ I don’t get feelings? I can’t have feelings?” she said on the Almost Adulting podcast.
She continued, “That was a really frustrating thing that like, it’s oh, I wanted to get divorced. This is my dream. I wasn’t really left with a choice. I wanted to be happy but it doesn’t mean I was stoked on it. I’m like, ‘Y’all watched our entire relationship play out and you saw him cheat on me and dump drinks on my head. Y’all basically saw this coming long before I did. And yet you’re saying I blindsided him with this?’ It’s wild to me. It takes two to tango but I put in the work to try to be a better partner.”
Katie added, “I held on to that relationship because I was in love with him, and I was wanting a future, everything with him. I think I was also very much broken. My confidence and self-worth was very much broken down. There was infidelity and cheating and stuff that happened and he blamed a lot of it on me as well and I just took it.”
The cast is currently filming for the next episode of the show.
