Katie Maloney, star of Vanderpump Rules, added a social media post that is raising eyebrows, and fans are wondering if she and her husband Tom Schwartz are going to file for divorce. VPR stars Katie and Tom started dating two years before Vanderpump Rules aired in 2013. The couple had their ups and downs, mostly due to Tom being reluctant to settle down and get married. After presenting Katie with a “ring on a string” in season 3, he finally proposed to her in 2016, and the two tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony, with Lisa Vanderpump as the officiant.
Fans were still dubious about Tom’s commitment to Katie, even after their wedding. Tom confessed that he had lost the marriage certificate and failed to file it, thereby making their marriage unofficial. Three years later, they finally handed in the correct paperwork and were legally married. Viewers felt that Tom often put Katie’s needs on the back burner. The last season of Vanderpump Rules showed him and Tom Sandoval opening up another bar, despite VPR's Katie’s wish to open a sandwich shop. Katie finally gave up waiting around for Tom and decided to partner up with Ariana Madix instead.
In a recent Instagram story, Katie reposted an image of a quote from Kim Kardashian which read, “In the last two years, I decided I’m going to make myself happy. And that feels really good. And even if that created changes and caused my divorce, I think it’s important to be honest with yourself about what really makes you happy. I’ve chosen myself. I think it’s okay to choose you.” Katie added, “Amen” on the quote, which has fans wondering if she’s hinting about divorcing Tom. Fans took to Reddit to support Katie if she was indeed leaving Tom. Agnesfolga wrote, “Katie PLEASE LEAVE HIM!!” One user shared that they'd feel ecstatic if Katie dumped Tom because they believe that she can do a lot better and would be happier without him.

Other fans think that people are reading way too much into the quote, and believe that Katie is simply showing support for Kim Kardashian. Fans speculate that it could possibly be for fellow Vanderpump Rules star Lala Kent, who left her fiance Randall Emmett after finding out that he had been cheating on her. Stars James Kennedy and Raquel Leviss also called it quits after their big “Rachella” engagement. If Katie and Tom are following in their co-stars’ footsteps, fans think it will completely change the dynamic of Vanderpump Rules next season. Reddit user Alilt0tle wrote, “Omg yes. If Katie dropped the vaginaweasel it would be absolutely amazing for her AND bring a whole new life into the show.”
Last season on Vanderpump Rules, Katie and Tom shared their struggles with fertility. Fans dragged Tom a few months ago when he seemed to poke fun at Katie while she was with two other former Vanderpump Rules stars and their babies. Since the Instagram story, Katie has been silent about her and Tom’s relationship status. Tom has been quiet of late as well, which leaves fans questioning what’s going on. Inquiring minds want to know if the Vanderpump Rules couple is still together and hopefully, fans will get answers soon.
