LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: On a recent episode of the 'Vanderpump Rules aftershow,' Tom Sandoval criticized Katie Maloney for her harsh treatment of Jo Wenberg, whom he referred to as Tom Schwartz’s "ex-fling."

Sandoval expressed strong disapproval of Maloney’s behavior, describing it as excessively vindictive. "I think Katie’s level of anger is rarely ever on par with the action," Sandoval said. He went on to criticize her further, stating, "She, like, openly talks about how she enjoys watching people suffer and stuff. That is the very definition of evil."

Sandoval’s comments came in the context of a broader discussion about the dynamics between Maloney, Schwartz, and Wenberg. He also noted Maloney's intense and unfair resentment towards Wenberg, possibly stemming from her past relationship with Schwartz. Sandoval said that Maloney seizes any opportunity to create conflict, especially when it involves Schwartz moving on with someone else.

Tom Schwartz, Maloney’s ex-husband, joined the conversation, partially agreeing with Sandoval. While Schwartz didn't go as far as to call Maloney evil, he did say, "She will pray on people’s downfalls."

During the 'Vanderpump Rules' Season 11 reunion, which was filmed in March 2024, Katie Maloney accused her ex-husband, Tom Schwartz, of giving "false hopes" to Jo Wenberg, a mutual acquaintance.
