She’s ready to let go! Vanderpump Rules star Katie Maloney has filed for divorce from Tom Schwartz, In Touch can confirm. It comes exactly one week after the pair announced in separate statements that they were splitting up after 12 years as a couple and nearly three years of marriage. Katie filed the divorce documents with the Los Angeles County Superior Court at the Van Nuys Courthouse East on Tuesday, March 22 according to Los Angeles County Superior Court case information viewed by In Touch.
Tom had said he was dreading the thought of divorce, explaining it was too “painful” in his March 15 split announcement. “Wanted to clear the air on some rumors floating around. Katie and I are separating. I’m not quite ready to use the ‘D’ word because it’s too painful,” he wrote, adding, “Yes, my heart aches but I’ll be ok. Not looking to evoke any sympathy here. I’m not the victim. Not gonna write too sad a song. Fully respect Katie’s decision and we’ve had healthy, productive conversations about it. It would be far sadder if she decided to stay with me whilst not happy.”
TMZ was first to report news of their divorce.
