Lala Kent, Tom Sandoval, and Ariana Madix React to Tom and Katie’s Divorce News

Following the news of Katie Maloney-Schwartz and Tom Schwartz's divorce, you can bet that their pals from Vanderpump Rules have shown them all the support. Amid the confirmation of their separation, their friends are speaking up and showing love for the pair.

Ariana Madix and Tom Sandoval opened up about the couple's split in a recent interview with Extra. "We love both of them so much…It’s not like a sides things. I just want both of them to be happy and I'm excited [for] what's next for both of them," Ariana shared in the interview, which took place on March 22 at the 2022 iHeartRadio Music Awards.

Tom was by her side and added, "I'm just there to be supportive as much as I can. Obviously, I don't want to like bring stuff up or be a reminder, so I just kind of wait for when Schwartz or Katie, or anybody like bring something up and I'm there. We're there."

While hosting a recent Amazon Live, Lala Kent also opened up about the news about her friends. "It's very sad, that's the most perfect and only way to put it. I thought their statements were very well thought out and I know that there is still love there. I'm sad for them, but I know that they are always going to be extremely close because that's just how they are," she said. "They are both incredible people."

The Vanderpump Rules inner circle, as well as the Bravo family, have shown love for the former couple since they first shared the news of their separation earlier this month.

On March 22, Katie officially filed for divorce, just a week after the couple released separate statements confirming their split. Katie and Tom were together for 12 years. They married in 2016 and later walked down the aisle again a few years later in Las Vegas; both weddings were featured on Vanderpump Rules.
