usmagazine.com:

The fallout from Tom Schwartz and Raquel Leviss’ make-out session continues. Us Weekly is breaking down how the Vanderpump Rules costars’ relationship has sparked a feud between Katie Maloney and Scheana Shay — and nearly a year’s worth of drama.The idea of Tom and Raquel exploring a romance began in April 2022, one month after the former bartender and Katie announced their split. (The spouses had quietly ended things in February 2022 after 12 years together and five years of marriage.) At the time, Tom denied “making out” with Raquel at Coachella — an event he wasn’t even at.The rumors made waves within the friend group, however, with Scheana and Katie seemingly having a conversation about the situation in Las Vegas that same month.“There was a conversation that happened between Katie and I … and Katie said, ‘I think they would make a good couple,’ or, ‘They might be a good match,’ or something along those lines,” the “Good As Gold” singer recalled on Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast in February 2023. “So I took that and ran with it and I told Raquel, ‘Katie kind of gives you her blessing if you want to pursue that.’ And then you’ll see the rest play out.”Katie denied Scheana’s recollection of the story, sharing a series of text messages between the two women dated May 2022.“You literally told me in Vegas that you want tom to move [on] bc it’ll make it easier for you bc you had already.

And you encourage me to push him to move on,” Scheana wrote.Katie claimed that her ex-husband moving on is “not really what I’m getting at,” slamming the idea that Scheana needs to “help tom with anything.” She implied that the “Scheananigans” podcast host pushed Tom and Raquel together.In order to view the video, please allow
