Scheana reflects on how Tom and Ariana's 2023 breakup affected her as a "present mother"
Among the many topics discussed on the podcast episode (now available for free, more on that below), Scheana opens up about the difficult time she had to find balance in her life as a mom and outside the group in general while also dealing with the fallout in the cast amid Tom and Ariana's split in 2023.
When appearing on Bravo's Hot Mic podcast, Scheana reflected on how Tom and Ariana's split caused an emotional domino effect and how it "hard" it was for her at the time to find the balance to also be a "present mother" to daughter, Summer, amid the drama. She added that she wasn't sure if "Ariana will ever understand" how difficult the situation was for her as well.
She has since reflected on those comments when speaking to BravoTV.com at the VPR Season 11 party in L.A. earlier this month, sharing:
"There were a lot of other things that went on in our private and personal lives [amid the Season 10 drama] and I think people forget that we also have friends and family outside of this show. So there were so many things that were going on last year that made this extra hard and that's what I was just trying to say is it's not that it was just 'Oh, I lost Tom. That's so hard on me. Poor me.' It was like there were a lot of other things that were going on."
