As Connor and Katie have had their love lives publicly displayed for the world to watch, this raises the question of whether the two are ready for a public relationship. Katie's previous marriage to Tom Schwartz didn't end well, with the couple's divorce finalized in 2022. Throughout her time on Vanderpump Rules, Katie's marriage to Tom was a significant focus. It became obvious that Tom didn't prioritize their marriage, leaving Katie feeling unvalued as she fought to save their relationship. However, this experience led Katie to set clear boundaries for her future relationships, ensuring she wouldn't tolerate similar treatment again.
