The Vanderpump Rules Season 11 trailer was full of unexpected reveals and uncontextualized drama. One of the most discussed trailer moments was Tom Schwartz’s confession to Lala Kent that he made out with Scheana Shay in Las Vegas.
The confession rocked the internet, and Scheana joked that she and Schwartz were supposed to take that information to their grave. She later clarified that her statement was hyperbole but the damage was done.
As online discussion revolved around the alleged kiss, a theory began popping up that Tom had not kissed Scheana, but merely a Las Vegas star who looked like Scheana. Now, in a strange twist, Katie Maloney is defending Tom’s honesty.
Katie says there was no “other Scheana”
Katie Maloney recently appeared on the January 4 episode of Nick Viall’s podcast, The Viall Files, wherein she discussed VPR and Schwartz. When asked about Tom’s infidelity, Katie said he cheated on her “with several people.” The conversation then moved to the Season 11 trailer and Schwartz’s unexpected confession regarding Scheana.
Once on the topic, Katie shut down the rumor that Tom had actually kissed Scheana’s Las Vegas lookalike Karrah Patterson. Tom and Karrah had previously kissed, but Katie assured everyone that Tom’s admission in the trailer was genuine and wasn’t some kind of rug pull. Regarding the theory, she said, “That’s a weird – I don’t know why people think that. No.”
She continued, “You are going to see [what happened]. But I will tell you that was not the other Scheana. That’s a complete theory that someone made up online.” So, while Tom did indeed kiss Scheana’s doppelganger, he also kissed the real Scheana as well, according to Katie. Or, there’s another way to explain what happened. Fans will still have to wait and see the context for themselves.
Vanderpump Rules Season 11 hits Bravo on Tuesday, January 30 at 8/7c.
