Katie Maloney seemingly suggested her former boss Lisa Vanderpump is jealous of Ariana Madix’s fame from the scandal involving her ex-boyfriend Tom Sandoval‘s affair.
Plus, her ex-husband Tom Schwartz’s ‘friend’ Jo Wenberg reportedly made her Instagram public, said it was “hard” filming the new season of Vanderpump Rules, and shared how Lala Kent treated her.
During a BravoCon panel shared by @byewighellodrama on Instagram, Katie was asked if Lisa harbors jealousy toward Ariana for her post-Scandoval fame.
“I…” said Katie, hesitating, as the crowd reacted with surprise, “…don’t know. Does she?”
Ariana looked shocked at her friend’s answer, before Katie asked the audience, “Do you guys think she does?”
When the crowd screamed ‘Yes!’ Katie added, “You guys said it, not me.” She then took a sip of her drink.
Around the same time, the ‘friend’ and former ‘roommate’ of Katie’s ex Tom reportedly made her Instagram account public and released a video via @Tasteof_reality.
“So I did film this season of Vanderpump Rules, and it was a very big eye-opening experience. I’m usually behind the camera,” explained Jo. “Being in front of the camera was very hard for me.”
Despite her difficulties, Jo said the producers were good to her – as was Katie’s friend Lala, who gave Jo “grace” and was “so sweet.”
This surprised Jo because the two women didn’t know each other and weren’t following each other on social media. “I just wanted to say that Schwartz is awesome,” Jo added, “[and also give] a shout out to Lala, because that really made me feel at ease.”
