Vanderpump Rules stars Ariana Madix and Katie Maloney glowed when they were spotted out in New York City Tuesday night.

They were leaving a taping of Watch What Happens Live, where they finally revealed the opening date of their Los Angeles sandwich shop Something About Her.

Ariana, 38, and Katie, 37, have spent roughly two years preparing to launch their business but have had to cope with multiple delays.

However, during their late-night talk show appearance this week, they announced that they have now set their opening date for May 22.

After delightedly breaking the news, the two women were the image of good cheer as they spilled out onto a Manhattan sidewalk.

Ariana cut a comfortable figure in a flowing pink top and a matching set of loose-fitted trousers, all with a floral print.

She changed into the relaxed ensemble after modeling a tight-fitted, strapless sequined cocktail dress on Watch What Happens Live.

Meanwhile, when Katie exited the taping, she was still in her show outfit of a shimmery black blouse and matching miniskirt.

Katie and Ariana’s respective exes Tom Schwartz and Tom Sandoval own two Los Angeles bars together, TomTom and Schwartz and Sandy’s.

The two women have spent years gearing up for the debut of their own business Something About Her, only to hit multiple roadblocks in the process.

One issue was their disputes with their chef and consultant Penny Davidi over matters such as salary, as seen on Vanderpump Rules.

Last month, Katie appeared on the podcast Popping Off With Teddi Mellencamp and Emily Simpson and shared that she and Ariana had parted company with Penny.

Katie and Ariana’s appearance on Watch What Happens Live came on the heels of news that the filming of Vanderpump Rules has been delayed.

Although the reality show typically shoots from May through July, the production has now been postponed, insiders informed TMZ.

Sources insisted the program is not being axed, but that the cast merely needed some time to sort out the ongoing fallout from ‘Scandoval’ – including a bombshell revenge porn lawsuit against Ariana and Tom Sandoval.

‘Scandoval’ was the roiling controversy that erupted last year when Ariana broke up with Tom after discovering that he had conducted an affair with her friend Rachel Leviss, who was then then known as Raquel.

Rachel was subjected to a backlash so fierce that she quit Vanderpump Rules and retreated to a mental health facility for two months.

However she resurfaced last August to give a wide-ranging tell-all interview about the scandal on Bethenny Frankel’s podcast.

‘I feel like I’ve been portrayed as the ultimate villain,’ Rachel told Bethenny on Just B. ‘My mistakes that I’ve made on camera live on forever.’

During that interview, she claimed that Tom had recorded an intimate FaceTime conversation with her without informing her first.

She filed suit against him and Ariana this February, accusing Tom of ‘secretly recording their private communications,’ as well as ‘capturing 𝓈ℯ𝓍ually explicit footage’ of her ‘without her knowledge or consent.’

Rachel alleged further that Ariana ‘distributed, disseminated, shared, and publicized the illicit videos intentionally’ after she discovered them on Tom’s phone.

Her complaint, obtained by DailyMail.com, contended: ‘”Scandoval” captured the public’s attention in a massive way, went completely viral, and injected new life into Vanderpump Rules.

‘It also caused mayhem in Leviss’s life, culminating in months-long in-patient treatment at a mental health facility and her departure from the show.’

The complaint alleged: ‘Fomented by Bravo and Evolution in conjunction with the cast, Leviss was subjected to a public skewering with little precedent and became, without exaggeration, one of the most hated women in America.’

Shortly thereafter, a Bravo insider said Tom was ‘so crushed’ by the lawsuit and that ‘None of them ever realized that this would take the toll on Rachel that it did.’

Speaking to DailyMail.com, the source added: ‘Tom honestly thought that he and Rachel would ride off into the sunset together. He was obsessed with her. He loved her so much and was so sure that she was the one he would spend forever with. For her to turn around and sue him is so absolutely shocking.’

More recently, Tom filed legal documents countering Rachel’s lawsuit, which his team characterized as a ‘thinly veiled attempt to extend her fame and to rebrand herself as the victim instead of the other woman,’ according to Page Six.

Rachel’s attorneys Mark Geragos and Bryan Freedman responded with a statement on her behalf to DailyMail.com, stating: ‘Sandoval’s response in the face of irrefutable evidence that will be presented in court is disturbing.’

The statement continued: ‘Leveraging such claims for media attention and perpetuating victim-blaming is not just deplorable but actionable.’
