When viewers were introduced to the staff at Lisa Vanderpump‘s restaurant during the premiere of Vanderpump Rules in 2013, it was evident that everyone was connected through their romantic entanglements. From Stassi Schroeder‘s tumultuous relationship with Jax Taylor, which shifted when he had a fling with her best friend Kristen Doute, to Peter Madrigal’s casual liaisons with several others.

Later that month, Maloney’s Vanderpump Rules co-star Scheana Shay confirmed the speculation that Martin was the mystery man.

“There’s been some chatter online recently. I’ve noticed some snippets. But trust me, he couldn’t have been any nicer,” Shay shared on her podcast. “He’s from San Diego, and we discussed that. Then I ran into them again later at the hotel at the end of the night, and [he] was just such a delightful guy. I caught the tail end of their performance.”

Maloney has since shared more snapshots of her relationship with Martin, which began two years after her breakup with Tom Schwartz. The former couple was married for six years before their divorce in 2022. Schwartz, for his part, has since started dating Sophia Skoro.
