Tom Schwartz confirmed for Scheana Shay rumored boyfriend Yes Wenberg was living in an apartment during the production Vanderpump Rules season 10.
In a deleted scene from Tuesday’s episode, Tom and Scheana are seen talking in their new apartment, which they moved into after their February 2022 split from their current wife. Katie Maloney. And during that discussion, Tom shared the news about his new roommate.
“My friend Jo stayed with me Like … yeah,” she shared, as seen in a clip from the full episode shared by Bravo.
“Is Jo a boy or a girl?” Scheana asked.
Then, after confirming Jo “girl,” Tom alleged that they were not “like” between them.
But when Jo enters the scene before walking the dog, Tom says, “[I] I love you, Jo.”
“Love you too,” he replied.
Tom also discussed his relationship with Jo in the confessional cast, telling the camera that he had a “love” in Jo but was not planning to do anything about it because of his recent breakup with Katie.
“I think I really like him, but I’m going to say no because I’m out of a 12-year relationship and I don’t want to make things awkward,” she said. “So yes, no one will ever know, except for…the entire nation.”
Meanwhile, while chatting with Lala Kentrung and Rachel LewisKatie said that when she dropped the dog and Tom off at her place, she found a toothbrush with lipstick and jewelry on it.
“Like, what the hell is this sh-t? He was like, ‘This is Jo,'” Katie recalled. “At first, [Kristen Doute’s]it’s her f-cking best friend. Why didn’t they stay at Christian’s on the side of the road?
Later, in a flashback scene, Katie is seen confronting Tom about the situation.
“I thought someone had left jewelry in the kitchen,” she said.
“It’s Jo,” Tom confirmed. “She stayed with me until the 1st. You look all suspicious and sh-t. Jo is my friend. It’s great to have a roommate.”
“It’s just weird not to mention it,” Katie replied.
As Pump Rules Fans may recall that Tom was first linked to Jo in December 2022, when the two were seen holding hands in a video shared to Rachel Lewis‘ Instagram Story, which was taken at a concert in Los Angeles.
A few months later, in February this year, Tom denied that they were dating.
“Jo is a bad hairdresser. … I think she’s a beautiful soul,” he told Us Weekly. “We don’t live together, and we’re not dating, but he’s just someone I respect on a deep level, and he’s a cool guy, and we just hang out.”
“I just got out of a 12-year relationship. I can’t be faithful – I can’t go back to another relationship,” he said. “It’s not fair to other people because I love my business and my family, and I love myself again.”
Vanderpump Rules Season 10 airs Wednesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
