VANDERPUMP Rules star Jo Wenberg has revealed her true feelings about Katie Maloney, Ariana Madix, Lala Kent, and Scheana Shay.
The reality star was spotted breaking down in tears during Tuesday's episode of the hit Bravo reality show.
While supporting James Kennedy, 32, at a DJ gig in Los Angeles, California, Tom Schwartz, 41, invited his former roommate Jo, 35, to the massive event.
Even though many think they're dating, the two have revealed they are just friends who were previously living together.
However, the rest of the Vanderpump Rules friend group - including Ariana, 38, Katie, 37, and, Lala Kent, 33, and Scheana, 38 - were also there.
Katie and Tom Schwartz got married in 2016, then called it quits in 2022.
"Right now, I really don't have a reason to like Jo," Scheana said in a confessional. "She literally drove with Raquel [Leviss] to go meet the Toms [Tom Sandoval and Schwartz] in Big Bear and then left Raquel with Sandoval in Big Bear.
"It was just a little homie hang? Come on b***h, you knew [about Tom and Raquel's affair]."
Claims were made that Jo secretly knew about Tom cheating on Ariana with Rachel — which came to light in March 2023.
In the next scene, Scheana spoke briefly with Jo to ask why she was hiding the braids in her hair with a hat and said that her hair looked better without the accessory.
Scheana could be heard saying, "I'm gonna bully you. Take the hat off!"
"It's comfortable. It looks good on me. Chill," Jo replied to Scheana, but in a separate confessional.
"I've gotten a lot of hate from the girls," Jo said in her interview. "It's 100 percent bullying. It's not fun, it's horrible."
After leaving the conversation, Jo went to sit on a couch with Sur hostess Billie Lee and her friend.
HEATED CONVO
In a conversation with Ariana, Katie, Scheana, and Lala, Ariana was the first to bring up Jo.
The cameras switched to the trio on the couch and Billie noticed that the group of women was staring.
I don't really want her to feel comfortable, period. If she feels uncomfortable then I'm thrilled
Katie Maloney
"She's a rat girl," Katie said.
Cutting back to Jo, who seemingly heard the conversation, awkwardly stated, "I don't know what to do."
In her confessional, Jo said, "The past year, the things that these girls have said about me, they don't go away. These girls would insinuate that I was a crackhead and that is... that's hurtful and harmful to anyone who has ADD.
It's one thing to hear it on social media but there's another feeling when you can see five girls and you just kinda feel like they're talking s**t about you."
Back to their conversation, Scheana retold the conversation she had with Jo earlier and the girls laughed.
Jo was then on camera covering her ears and shaking her head, seemingly starting to tear up.
James' girlfriend Ally Lewber jumped into Scheana's conversation to try and make light of the situation.
"I think she's trying to come in peace," she said, with the other girls cringing.
"She's a psychopath," Katie said.
ARIANA CHIMES IN
During Ariana's confessional, she warned that Jo may not be the person she says she is.
"Before anyone starts boohooing over how Jo is treated by any one of us, know that Jo is a full-blown mean girl bully who did not give a flying f**k about spending Thanksgiving with me in my home while knowing that our mutual friend [Raquel] was f**king my boyfriend [Tom Sandoval]. In my house.
"And it is not bullying for me to point that out."
Back to their conversation, Jo and Billie Lee were spotted walking past them to leave the party.
"I feel uncomfortable," Jo revealed.
Katie heard her and said to her friends, "I don't really want her to feel comfortable, period. If she feels uncomfortable then I'm thrilled."
Cutting to Jo leaving the event space, she could be heard crying.
'HARD TO WATCH'
After viewing the tense scene, fans shared their honest opinions on social media regarding the girls' hatred for Jo on X, formerly Twitter.
"Here goes Ariana thinking she can waive a wand and make the world hate Jo. Who cares," one fan said. "Ariana needs to be cut down to size. Just saying Jo knowing doesn’t make her a bully.
"Making fun of Jo and calling her an addict is more of a bully imo."
"I was appalled to see Scheana scream in Jo's face !! This is why I don't f**k with Scheana Shay," a second exclaimed in all caps.
"Katie, being a bully at almost 40 isn't cute," a third revealed.
All of these women except Ally should be embarrassed by being straight up bullies. Tonight’s a hard watch," a fifth wrote.
KATIE AND JO'S PAST
Shortly after Tom and Katie called it quits, Jo sent Katie a positive and supportive text message.
The text read, "I'm so supporting of your inner thoughts and visions/live in the moment, you're a gem and I've always respected you. I love you."
Months later, the hairstylist moved in with Schwartz.
In an Instagram comment, Katie called Jo "spooky" and explained the text she received from her.
"I mean none of us could stand to be around her. Her energy is on par with a crack head. She is a psycho and I will also light her on fire with [Raquel]."
