Katie Maloney threatens to light Tom Schwartz ‘on fire’ if he knew about Scandoval

Reality TV

Katie Maloney will happily use her Witches Of WeHo powers on ex-husband Tom Schwartz – if she finds out he secretly knew about Tom Sandoval’s affair with Raquel Leviss.

“I would light him on fire,” the “Vanderpump Rules” star said on Wednesday’s “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen,” when asked whether she believes Schwartz “willingly” protected and tried to cover for them.

Cohen was referring to the “backlash” Schwartz has received in recent months after he made out with Leviss several times following his divorce from Maloney.

In light of “Scandoval,” fans found it suspicious that Leviss would make out with both Schwartz and Sandoval – seeing as they are best friends, business partners and co-stars who run in the same circle.

Cohen went on to bluntly ask Maloney if she thought Schwartz was a “pawn” in Sandoval and Leviss’ affair, and if she had any clue as to when her ex found out about it.

“Part of me believes that he was duped … by both of them,” Maloney, 36, said, adding that despite asking Schwartz, 40, when he learned of the affair, she still doesn’t know when Sandoval, also 40, told him.

Maloney said she was also unsure of the exact timeline of the affair, but admitted there were “obvious clues” that Sandoval was cheating on Ariana Madix with Leviss. One example was Leviss, 28, attending one of Sandoval’s concerts, front and center.

“I’d seen that Raquel had attended one of his shows … she’s up front with her phone in his face, jumping up and down,” Maloney recalled. “She didn’t post at all on her [Instagram] Story that she was there [like she normally would].

“There was also some stuff, maybe we’ll see this season, that was, like, very interesting,” she added. “I’m sitting up in the cheap seats, I’m not even up close and personal like everybody else, and I’m just like, ‘This is weird.’”

Elsewhere in the episode, Maloney admitted that she “wasn’t shocked” to hear that Leviss and Sandoval were having a “full-on affair” in the midst of his nearly 10-year relationship with Madix, 37.

As previously reported, Madix broke up with Sandoval after seeing a sexually explicit video of Leviss on her now-ex’s phone – and quickly learning that her boyfriend and her ex-friend had been “communicating inappropriately” since July 2022.

Sandoval and Leviss have both issued separate apologies while Madix broke her silence following Maloney’s “WWHL” appearance Wednesday night.

“So many of my closest friends are also grieving this loss right now and reeling from this betrayal on so many levels,” she captioned a solo shot of her in Mexico.

“I am so f–king lucky to have the best support system in the world and i hope i can repay every single person for the love you have shown me.”

Madix ended her statement with a cryptic phrase that read, “What doesn’t kill me better run.”

“Vanderpump Rules” airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
