Who is Jo Wenberg?
Schwartz's former roommate is a hairstylist who specializes in wedding hair. Jo got to know the Vanderpump Rules crew through her friendship with alum Kristen Doute.
According to her JoMyGosh page on Zola, Jo began cutting hair in her family's garage when she was 14. Following her college graduation, Jo attended the Aveda Institute in Minneapolis, Minnesota. She moved to Los Angeles in 2012, and she's styled hair for the red carpet, award shows, and weddings.
She moved in with Schwartz following the end of their respective long-term relationships. In a highlight on her Instagram page, Jo opened up about filming Season 11. She referred to it as a "very big, eye-opening experience" because she's "usually behind the camera doing hair and stuff."
In addition to calling Schwartz "awesome," Jo said that she found a connection with fellow cast member Lala Kent."Lala was so nice to me," Jo said in an Instagram Story, adding that Ocean's mom gave her "grace."
"I thought that was such a sweet thing. We don't even follow each other on Instagram, and Lala and I don't even have each other's phone numbers, but I just wanted to kind of give a shout out about her," she continued. "She was so sweet."
Though Schwartz insisted that he was just friends with Jo during Vanderpump Rules Season 10, at the reunion, he admitted that their friendship did turn into something more when they were living together.
“It did evolve into a situationship, or like a friends-with-benefits thing with clearly defined boundaries,” Schwartz said. “We were both coming out of long-term relationships, and for a minute there, we were each other’s happy place.”
According to the Season 11 trailer, Schwartz and Jo's relationship status remains a bit complicated. "This is my friend, Jo, she's hot!" Schwartz shouts in one moment from the trailer. In another, however, Jo asks if Schwartz is "embarrassed" by her.
Though Jo's status with Schwartz remains a bit of a mystery, as the extended Season 11 trailer reveals, there's another woman who has caught Schwartz's eye — and she's also caught his ex-wife Katie Maloney's eye as well. Ahead of the Season 11 premiere, catch up on Vanderpump Rules on Peacock now.
