Katie Maloney is "in love"

Katie - who was previously married to 'Vanderpump Rules' star Tom Schwartz - said on the 'Disrespectfully' podcast: "I have a boyfriend.

"Yeah, I'm in love, everybody. I'm really happy."

Katie hasn't revealed the name of her new boyfriend. However, she was happy to provide an insight into their romance.

She shared: "This weekend, I went to go see my boyfriend. He has to travel for work, so I went to go meet up with him and hang out with him and spend some time.

"It was really amazing 'cause I hadn't seen him in a few weeks and just being able to, like, spend some quality time and just be around him was really necessary and really nice."

Katie intends to share more about her boyfriend "in time".

She added: "He's the most wonderful person I've ever met. He's very lovely and he just makes me feel really special and he's really special and, yeah, I'm just really happy."

Meanwhile, Katie previously revealed that she doesn't "hang out" with her 'Vanderpump Rules' co-stars.

The reality star has consciously built "boundaries" between herself and some of her co-stars in recent years.

She said on 'The Viall Files': "Truthfully, I love my life, and I've been really happy for, I don't know, the last year. I've had some stressful [things] going on, obviously.

"But I think this new chapter in life and this transition that I've made to really design my life and invite new people into my life and embrace friendships that I've been really excited and happy to have and feel like I'm really grateful for in my life."
