Tom Schwartz’s former fling Jo Wenberg is set to attend the Vanderpump Rules season 11 reunion, as confirmed by Bravo. The reunion seating chart includes host Andy Cohen, VPR cast members Lisa Vanderpump, Ariana Madix, Tom Sandoval, Katie Maloney, Tom Schwartz, Scheana Shay, James Kennedy, and Brock Davies. While Jo and Ally Lewber are not pictured in the chart, Bravo announced their attendance along with the newcomers.
Ally made her VPR debut in season 10 as James’ girlfriend, while Jo appeared for the first time in season 11, introduced to viewers as a hairstylist cutting Schwartz’s hair. Schwartz clarified their relationship, stating that Jo was never his girlfriend but rather a friend after a brief romance.
Prior to the season 11 premiere, Schwartz praised Jo’s energy and charisma, describing her as a 'breath of fresh air' for the series. He highlighted her Midwest roots and encouraged fans to reach out to her for hairstyling services.
Jo’s entry into the VPR circle came through former cast member Kristen Doute, who later expressed feeling used by Jo to gain television exposure. Doute revealed that Jo distanced herself and started spending time with Schwartz, leading to the end of their friendship.
Katie Maloney, Schwartz’s ex-wife, has openly shared her negative opinion of Jo, calling her 'spooky' and likening her energy to that of a 'crack head.' Despite mixed reactions from cast members, Jo has embraced her role in the Vanderpump Rules universe, urging fans to show kindness as she made her Instagram public.
Jo’s journey on the show has been marked by both support and criticism, with her presence adding a new dynamic to the VPR cast. As she prepares to join the season 11 reunion, fans are eager to see how her storyline unfolds within the Vanderpump Rules universe.
