Reality star romance? Vanderpump Rules star Katie Maloney is seen on date with Love Island USA hunk Connor Newsum

As a lifestyle expert with extensive experience in navigating the complexities of reality TV and dating scenes, I find myself intrigued by this potential new power couple – Katie Maloney and Connor Newsum.


It’s possible that a fresh reality TV pair could emerge, as rumors swirl about Katie Maloney from Vanderpump Rules being seen with Connor Newsum from Love Island USA.

On Tuesday, as reported by US Weekly, it was seen that Maloney, aged 37, and Newsum, aged 28, were present at Laurel Tavern located in Studio City, California.

According to the source, they were seated at a corner table in the restaurant, without any additional companions. Notably, Maloney was reported to look stunning.

There’s a possibility that Ariana Madix, who is both the host of Love Island USA and a cast member on Vanderpump Rules with Maloney, might have set up this date. However, this hasn’t been officially verified yet.

The news comes just a few weeks after both Maloney and Madix were sued by a former chef from their sandwich shop dubbed Something About Her.’

Maloney hasn’t dated since her split from another Vanderpump Rules star, Tom Schwartz, who she was married to from 2016 to 2022. 

In January, she disclosed that she had been single for 12 years since her separation from Schwartz, as she shared details about her romantic life on The Viall Files podcast.

In my opinion, life in the dating scene of Los Angeles can sometimes feel like a delicate balance between flourishing experiences and simply getting by – just navigating through the cityscape.

“At times, it can feel incredibly bleak. It’s almost as if you say, ‘This is reality, plain and simple,'” she commented on the podcast.

She admitted, ‘The landscape had just totally changed from the time I was 24 to now.’

In her admission, she acknowledged that things had shifted but remained essentially the same. What transpired was somewhat predictable, as if to confirm the ongoing struggle of men not being alright.

In a September 2023 episode of the Almost Adulting podcast, she discussed her divorce, saying, “I didn’t need much from my partner. All I needed was for them to be there for me, but they consistently failed. Time after time after time, their absence grew louder and louder until it was a voice I couldn’t ignore any longer.”

She explained, “Over several months, we had reached a stage where I felt the need for honesty, both with myself and him. It was becoming increasingly clear to me.”

She confessed that she had grown distant emotionally towards him, even though her feelings for him remained strong. However, the bond, the romantic feeling, simply wasn’t present in their relationship any longer.

In my role as a lifestyle expert, let me share some insights. Just like me, hailing from the sunny shores of Santa Monica, California, Newsum found himself stepping into the spotlight on the fourth season of Love Island USA, making his grand entrance on day two.

He joined them (Liv Walker, Hakeem White) on the ship, and developed fleeting relationships with JaNa Craig and Leah Kateb.

In the end, Newsum was removed from the show on the 15th day. However, he shared later that he’s been in touch with Cass Laudano after departing the villa.
