Katie Maloney filed for divorce from Tom Schwartz right before their cameras went back up for Season 10 of Vanderpump Rules. The dust has since settled, and now, Katie is dating Nick Martin. Nick is the guitarist for the Sleeping With Sirens rock band. Since Katie and great music go hand in hand, this match tracks. This pairing also works well for Scheana Shay, who just met Nick, and as she states, he “could not have been nicer.”
VPR’s Scheana Shay approves of Katie Maloney’s new man, Nick Martin
Katie is in love, which makes me happy AF. Yet, this new romance already has a few hurdles for Katie to hacksaw her way through, as Nick is still wading through his divorce from his soon-to-be ex-wife, Jenna Martin. Due to this, Katie tried to keep their romance a bit hush-hush. However, she is a reality television star with an invested following, so her new man’s identity got uncovered rather quickly.
Then, rumors began swirling courtesy of another ex of Nick’s, Brandy Baye. She isn’t a fan of her former man, so she put Nick on blast online. Katie never responded to Brandy’s allegations, FYI. At least not yet.
On her Scheananigans podcast, Scheana revealed that she met Katie’s new guy in question at a music festival. From what she can gather, Nick is solid. “We were all by the artist trailers in the hangout area,” Scheana began. Then, Nick “and Katie were walking up while I was standing at the taco truck,” Scheana added, so they chatted for a bit.
“She introduced me to her boyfriend, and I know there’s been some things online recently. I’ve seen little bits and pieces of [that], but let me tell you, he could not have been nicer. We ended up at a different food truck, [and engaged] in a five, 10-minute conversation with some mutual friends,” Scheana explained.
Scheana finds Nick to be a “sweet guy.” As for his music, Scheana is also a fan. I love this positivity from Scheana for Katie. Hopefully, we will see more showings of friendship on VPR once/if it returns to our airwaves.
