Tom Schwartz didn’t like what he saw when he watched Season 11 of Vanderpump Rules. He was “disappointed” by his behavior. And many VPR viewers feel the same way. He tried to bring the crew back together post-Scandoval. He caught flack about forgiving Tom Sandoval for all his misdeeds.
During Season 11, viewers also finally met Jo Wenberg, Schwartz’s girlfriend friend. While Schwartz told his friends that nothing romantic was happening with Jo, they were actually in a “situationship.” Their situation sounded a lot like a real relationship, at least behind closed doors. It was obvious that Schwartz led Jo on for months. Afterward, Schwartz moved on with Sophia Skoro, and the duo is reportedly happy together.
Schwartz is teaming up with Sandoval…again
Schwartz was a guest on The Valley stars Kristen Doute and Luke Broderick’s podcast, Balancing Act. And he detailed all his plans for the summer, including relaunching his whiskey brand with Sandoval. “We’re kind of relaunching our whiskey, which I’m super stoked about. We’re going to be doing some bottle signings next week,” Schwartz said of their whiskey brand, Tom’s Good Lovin’. “We got distribution in California, which is cool.” As you may recall, the duo are also partners in the bar Schwartz & Sandys.
Schwartz also plans to travel and incorporate “sidequests.” These income opportunities don’t require a long commitment. Perfect for Schwartz, the man allergic to commitment. So, what are his plans?
“I don’t know if you remember, Kristen, but before the pandemic, I was getting to the point where I was just confident enough to DJ in the bars. I want to be able to DJ in my bars,” Schwartz said. “I’m not trying to be, like, a superstar DJ. I just want to be able to DJ in my bars… I’m going to travel for the first time in my life.” He added, “I’m planning on playing the World Series of Poker.” Hold up. I’m trying to picture Schwartz as a DJ.
He has also been focusing on his general well-being. Schwartz has “been working out every day, eating healthier.” He is even “reading a little.”
As for moving in with Sandoval? Schwartz has changed his mind on that front. “The optics of me moving in with Sandoval are not good for my personal growth and everything,” Schwartz stated. Instead, Schwartz plans to move into a smaller “artist loft.” He is also building a house in Florida. “I’m finally going to build a house for my family there and I have like this little pond,” Schwartz said.
Part 3 of the Vanderpump Rules reunion airs Tuesday, May 28 at 8/9c on Bravo.
