Tom Schwartz is adjusting to single living after his divorce from Katie Maloney in 2022. During a Vanderpump Rules after show, Schwartz discussed his experience living alone in an apartment. He described the apartment as not bad but mentioned that it felt like a bachelor pad and lacked the appeal of building equity like his previous home. Schwartz expressed his reluctance to get too comfortable in the temporary space, despite having the means to renovate it.
Following their split announcement in March 2022, Maloney officially filed for divorce, and the couple moved out of their shared home in June. Maloney shared a sentimental post on Instagram, bidding farewell to their former residence and expressing gratitude for the memories.
In a later interview in November 2023, Schwartz mentioned that his apartment had become cozier with some improvements. He humorously referred to it as a 'midlife crisis post-divorce' space but acknowledged the positive changes he had made to make it feel more like home. Schwartz clarified that he viewed the apartment as a temporary living situation until he decided on a more permanent housing arrangement.
Despite the challenges of adjusting to single living, Schwartz maintained a positive outlook, considering his apartment as a temporary 'storage unit' that provided him with shelter. He expressed gratitude for having a roof over his head and hinted at the possibility of purchasing a new house or finding a different apartment in the future.
