Katie Maloney is firing back at comments Raquel Leviss made during a Watch What Happens Live appearance last week.
After her Vanderpump Rules castmate told Andy Cohen she thought she should “butt out” of Tom Schwartz‘s plans to open a new bar, Schwartz and Sandy’s, with Tom Sandoval, noting that she must be “bored with her life,” Katie appeared on a podcast, where she described Raquel’s suggestions as “hilar.”
“I don’t know where that came from,” Katie admitted on the October 26 episode of Not Skinny but Not Fat, via Showbiz Cheat Sheet. “She said I need to butt out and I must have just been bored with my life. It’s like whoa [laughs]. I mean, listen it’s just kinda hilar[ious]. When someone who like doesn’t know anything about my life talks about my life.”
Katie went on to liken Raquel’s diss to that of a social media troll.
“It’s kinda like the people in the comments section,” she continued. “That’s funny you talk about things you know nothing about. Like, she never asked about my life. So for her to know if I’m bored or not. Listen, I get bored with things. I’ll move on from things. But I wasn’t bored with my life. That’s not why I want to get involved. I want to get involved because it’s my husband.”
During the first several episodes of the ninth season of Pump Rules, Katie has been seen in a series of tense moments with Sandoval as she encourages her husband Schwartz to become more vocal in their partnership while getting more and more involved in their project herself.
Also on the podcast, Katie, who is one of the few remaining OGs of the series, acknowledged that season nine got off to a slow start but said “it’s about to get really good.”
“I know some people are – it took some getting used to for us, for myself especially without not having some of my buddies there. And I know some people are like watching it like, ‘What is this?’ But trust me, starting next week, it gets f-cking good,” she promised.
Katie went on to say that the episodes that have aired thus far served as an “appetizer” for the main dish that is to come.
“Some welcome drinks if you will. But like next week is going to start to kick off,” she teased.
Vanderpump Rules season nine airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
