We Have a Major Update on Tom Schwartz, Katie Flood, and, Yes, Katie Maloney
After the Winter House cast members had a little fling, the Below Deck Med alum shared an update on her relationship with the Vanderpump Rules cast member and his ex-wife.
Katie Flood appeared on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen on December 5. While in the Clubhouse, the Below Deck Mediterranean alum wore head-to-toe red, which was fitting — she was definitely put in the hot seat with some spicy questions!
The former chief stewardess opened up about her current relationship with her Winter House fling, Tom Schwartz. She also shared whether she's met Vanderpump Rules' Katie Maloney, AKA Tom's ex-wife.
But first, some background. While appearing on Winter House Season 3 together, Tom and Katie struck up a casual romance. When Tom was in the WWHL Clubhouse back in November, he had this to say about the New Zealand native: "She has this iconic, timeless look ... [she has] the essence of an early '90s supermodel." But according to Tom, Katie's beauty isn't only skin-deep.
The Tom Tom co-owner went on to share that the former yachtie is "sophisticated and very competent, but she has a great sense of humility." He added: "[She's] also she's very cosmopolitan [and] worldly. She's got a mystique about her."
So, where do Tom and Katie stand today?
Are Katie Flood and Tom Schwartz still friends and dating?
During a game called "Your Heart Goes Flood-er," Andy asked Katie how she describes her current relationship with Tom. "We're definitely friends," she said. "I think we have a very flirtatious and cheeky relationship. I will say I'm really happy we managed to keep it very light ... We're still are very happy to see each other, to be in each other's presence."
She also said: "I adore Schwartz, I love him, I think he's amazing and I'll only really have good things to say. Does he make some questionable decisions? Absolutely, but I think he's trying to learn and be better from that.
Has Katie Flood Met Katie Maloney?
A caller also asked Katie whether she had met Katie Maloney "since canoodling with Tom Schwartz." The Winter House cast member replied that she had met the Something About Her co-owner, and went on to spill what tea there is.
"So, Katie [Maloney] was actually one of the first people I met at [BravoCon 2023]," she said. "It was before BravoCon. It was when we were checking into our hotel because we were all staying in the same hotel. It was a very brief 'hello, nice to meet you.' It was very civil."
When Andy asked Katie whether the other Katie knew who she was, the former chief stew responded: "I assume so. I'm sure she definitely knows who I am now. It was very brief, I wish I could give you more tea than that, and then we didn't cross paths again."
