If you’ve been living under a rock, or Vanderpump Rules isn’t on your radar of reality tv shows, let me remind you of all of the chaos that has happened recently.
Vanderpump Rules premiered in 2013 with our favorite Beverly Hills housewife, Lisa Vanderpump, on the screen. The restauranteur and former housewife introduced an audience to a young, lively staff at SUR, the restaurant you take your “mistress” in Hollywood, according to Vanderpump.
But we can’t forget the most problematic relationship: Katie Maloney and Tom Schwartz.
After 12 years together and five years of marriage, Maloney decided to pull the plug on the relationship â and in the season premiere of Vanderpump Rules, we got our first foray into how it all went down.
Check out some reactions to their divorce playing out on TV:
1.
Iâm glad Katie left Tom, he clearly needs to grow up and this conversation with LaLa proves that #VanderpumpRules

I feel like this is the beginning of a new Era. We’ve never seen #vpr #VanderpumpRules without Katie and Tom being together. This is going to be interesting.

I like Tom Schwartz as a person/friend but I have ZERO sympathy for him with Katie. He was a lousy husband and never had her back and always went for the laugh instead of her well being. Its like he was stuck being perperually 19. She must never have felt safe. #VanderpumpRules

Schwartz trying to be serious but he had me cracking up when he said Katie was telling him about the divorce and he was halfway listening but couldn’t ask her to repeat herself because one of the reasons for this divorce is him not listening. Now Tom đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł #PumpRules

Seeing Tom and Katie no longer together is different. But she made the right decision. She has always been so much more mature than him. And she needs to find someone who sees her as a woman.#PumpRules

Just beyond satisfying to see this era of Katie Maloney thriving now that she has dropped the Tom Schwartz sized dead weight. This season of #PumpRules feels like it is gonna be all I could have dreamt of and more

@RickHammerTime Tom plays an innocent little puppy dog when he actually treats Katie like sh*t.
Those two just aren’t good for eachother and it breaks my heart.Also, pre hating Raquel for dating him.
That girl is a snake. Almost dislike her as much as I do scheana.

Watching Swartz admit he wasnât listening when Katie was telling him why she was asking for a divorce is one of the funniest scenes in the entire 10 seasons of this show. No notes. #VanderpumpRules

@TVandme__ Tom has been the exact same Tom since S1. Puts his friends first, hardly ever took Katie seriously, AND had a cheating scandal every other season, yet she STILL pressured him to marry her knowing all that. Donât bother feeling bad for her or any of em #vanderpumprules

Ok so first thoughts. Letâs see how long Katie and Tom staying friends last. Lala gave me Erica Jane vibes when she walked in. #vanderpumprules #PumpRules

Tom is more empathic and kind to Katie
during the divorce than he EVER was during the marriage. PROVE ME WRONG. #realittv #vanderpumprules #vpr #bubba #teamkatiemaloney #teamkatie #divorcewin #bravotv

Katie not wanting to be with Tom and also not wanting Tom to make out with anyone is fitting for her oxyMORON self. She commented back to someone saying âwell when you share custody of dogsâ. LMAO girl just shut up. #vanderpumprules #pumprules

So Iâm watching #VanderpumpRules season 9 and Iâm so happy that Tom and Katie are divorcing because he stayed throwing her under the bus to save himself.
