Tom Schwartz is back off the market.
The Vanderpump Rules star started dating his girlfriend, Sophia Skoro, in December 2023, nearly two years after splitting from his ex-wife and costar Katie Maloney in March 2022. The 23-year-old is 18 years younger than Schwartz, but the age gap hasn’t bothered either of them.
“She’s just really effing cool! She’s charismatic and clever and kind of unconventionally funny,” Schwartz said in an April 2024 interview with Access Hollywood. “She’s way cooler than me.”

He added that Skoro had met members of the Vanderpump cast including Jax Taylor, Brittany Cartwright, Tom Sandoval and Scheana Shay and had bonded with all of them.
“She gets along great with everybody. That’s one of my favorite things about her,” Schwartz said. “I introduce her to people, and she’s so genuine and instantly makes a connection with people. She’s very gregarious.”
