Can anyone truly explain to me what is going on between Tom Schwartz and Jo Wenberg on this season of Vanderpump Rules? It’s one of the most dumbfounding relationships I’ve ever seen on this show, and that’s saying a lot. Schwartz has been staunchly denying that he and Jo were in a committed relationship. However, as the season unfolds, we’re seeing tell-tale signs that Jo’s perspective of their situationship is on the other side of the spectrum.
Jo recently went rogue with Rachel Leviss by appearing on her podcast to spill tea about Schwartz and filming Pump Rules. She revealed a lot about her current dynamic with Schwartz on the latest episode of “Rachel Goes Rogue,” and it sounds like Schwartz is back in the hot seat.
Jo is done protecting Schwartz
Jo revealed during the podcast that she and Schwartz both decided not to talk anymore and establish boundaries between them. “That doesn’t mean that we might not talk in the future and it doesn’t mean that I don’t miss him,” Jo admitted.
According to Jo, she and Schwartz had an “organic” relationship that is “very granola.” It’s sort of hard to understand Jo speak without Schwartz interpreting her quirky language. “You list all the things that you wanna have in a partner, they were there,” Jo added. It’s quite obvious she was endgame with Schwartz, but he is treating her like a textbook rebound.
Ultimately, Jo revealed that the trust was broken. “I was the last to know everything and all I was doing was just being myself,” she said.
Justice for Jo
Even though Schwartz has a new girlfriend in his life, Jo thinks that they could’ve worked things out. “We were in love. We would tell each other we loved each other and we would be extremely just in our own bubble,” Jo revealed. “I miss him a lot. I also know that he’s moved on so there’s nothing you can do. It’s going to take me a very long time to get me to a place of happiness again with anybody.” Yikes. Can we get Schwartz’s new boo on Rachel’s podcast to comment on all of this?
Despite feeling like Schwartz acted differently when VPR cameras were rolling, Jo claims she’s not on bad terms with him. She’s focusing on moving on to work on herself. However, it hasn’t been easy — she admits she was “mentally f–ked up” by the situation and felt like she was grieving a death. “I look back and I feel very grateful that I had somebody in my life that made me so happy. We could not have laughed more,” she added. Jo does give Schwartz a lot of passes for a dude who totally screwed her over. No one deserves to feel put down like that.
Vanderpump Rules continues Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
