Katie Maloney Reflects on Buildup to Her Divorce From Tom Schwartz: 'I Was Just Dying Inside'
Katie Maloney is opening up about her split from Tom Schwartz, and how she saw the signs that led to her filing for divorce last month.Maloney, 35, recently sat down on the recent episode of Lindsey Metselaar's podcast, and reflected on pulling the plug on her 12-year relationship with her fellow co-star.«I had been expressing my feelings — where I felt that I was not getting my needs met and where I thought I was being hurt by some of the behavior,» Maloney shared. «I don't think he understood or resonated or agreed.»Maloney candidly recalled how she finally came out and confronted the situation head-on, claiming that she flat-out told Schwartz she wasn't happy, «And then he just didn't really do anything... I think he thought that I was just gonna get over it or something.»Several weeks later, Maloney said she hadn't gotten any sort of understanding from Schwartz and, «I decided that I had wanted to get a divorce.»Maloney admitted that she «really thought that we were gonna make it work,» but struggling with the issues in their relationship, and putting all her focus and energy into her marriage, took a toll on her mental health.«I've been bogged down and putting all of my energy into this relationship and when I'm not getting my needs met, it's making me feel really sad and bad about myself,» she shared.
