“First of all, I don’t even know how that happened and it’s so regrettable, I’m so embarrassed. It’s like, especially for my age and maybe if I was single and 22, that would be OK. No, then it’s definitely OK.”
He continued, “But as a married man, it’s … It’s easy for me to make light of the situation but knowing that I hurt someone I love so much, it’s really embarrassing.

As previously reported, Lala Kent told Scheana Marie and Ariana Madix on the January 2 episode of the Bravo hit reality series that her friend made out with Schwartz when he was wasted. Madix later filled in Schwartz, and he broke the news to Maloney, whom he married in August 2016, reports the publication.
Since he was intoxicated, Schwartz could not confirm or deny if the alleged makeout happened or not. However, the Bravo reality star made it clear that he does not have a serious substance abuse issue.
