Scheana Marie and Rob Valletta called it quits last August after about seven months of dating but they haven’t given up on their friendship.
During a new interview, Rob revealed he has a new girlfriend! Plus, he opened up about his current relationship with the Vanderpump Rules star, explaining where he and Scheana stand today following their split.
“It’s a real relationship. I’ve known her for 12 years, so we are friends. From friends, you can always kind of withstand anything. The way we broke up, it wasn’t a bad breakup. It was just, ‘I can’t be in your world because I can’t trust what anybody in [the Vanderpump Rules] cast is going to say about me in general.’ … I just said the world is not for me. This is your world. If there is the right time, we’ll find the right time,” he explained to Us Weekly magazine on June 20.
After their split last year, Scheana said she and Rob tried to be friends with benefits but ultimately, it was too “hard.” She then moved to Las Vegas to star in Sex Tips For Straight Women From A Gay Man and didn’t see him as much.
“Just timing-wise with where our careers are both at right now, it’s not a good time for a relationship, which we both agreed on,” she later said.
After completing her work on her Las Vegas show, Scheana returned to Los Angeles and sparked rumors of a possible romance with former Bachelorette contestant Robby Hayes. Meanwhile, Rob struck up a romance of his own, but won’t say who it is that he’s dating.
“I am dating someone. I am dating someone as of a week and a half ago, so we will see what happens,” Rob revealed. “She’s a pretty awesome person. But yeah, we’ll see.”
As for Rob’s thoughts on Scheana’s rumored romance with Robby, he recently told Domenick Nati that he would be happy for the Vanderpump Rules star if the rumors were true.
“If she’s happy, I’m happy,” he explained. “No matter what she does in life, I support everything.”
