The storylines on Bravo are colliding, as Ariana Madix and Tom Schwartz just reunited to wish their fellow Vanderpump Rules alum, Kristen Doute, well. Ariana and Schwartz used to be close. Sadly, the storylines in Seasons 10 and 11 of VPR ended their friendship. However, both parties are mostly grown individuals. So, they seemingly laid down their martini glasses to celebrate the upcoming birth of their mutual friend’s first child.
Tom Schwartz and Ariana Madix appeared friendly at Kristen Doute’s baby shower
Kristen and her fiancé, Luke Broderick, are expecting a daughter. Therefore, the cast of The Valley (some, not all) gathered together to help usher in this new era of their lives.
As they celebrated Kristen’s little wildflower, their guests huddled together for a picture. Kristen then posted this image, and right away, fans spotted Ariana and Schwartz huddled together in a friendly manner. Standing on the far right side of this photograph, Schwartz has his arm draped over Ariana’s shoulder. While his head leans one way and hers leans another, both are grinning.
Their happy faces are a fry cry from when we last saw them on Pump Rules, where Schwartz continually covered for Ariana’s now-ex, Tom Sandoval. Ariana shied away from Schwartz after the Scandoval storyline broke the internet. By the time VPR Season 11 wrapped, the friendship between Ariana and Schwartz remained broken.
But now, here Schwartz and Ariana are, touching, smiling, and looking somewhat healed, wearing matching black outfits while all others sport pastels. This is great for Kristen, who deserves to be celebrated by everyone she adores, whether they like each other or not. No other intel has leaked from this baby shower. Nevertheless, they (whoever they are) say that time heals all wounds, so hopefully, they are right.
Also, Sandoval did not appear to be in attendance. His absence makes sense.
The Valley continues on Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo. The show’s available to stream on Hayu in the UK and Ireland.
