Lala Kent attempted to salvage her relationship with Randall Emmett before calling it quits with the film producer in October amid rumors of infidelity.
During a recent podcast, the Vanderpump Rules cast member opened up about the moments that led up to her breakup before revealing if she and Randall are communicating currently, discussing her thoughts on future love, and sharing her plans to have more children.
“I ignored a lot of things that I probably shouldn’t have, but I think I ignored them because he’s good at what he does. I would have played millions upon millions of dollars on him never creeping around on me… And everyone around me is blindsided as well,” Lala revealed on the December 21 episode of Not Skinny But Not Fat.
According to Lala, her situation with Randall is far beyond a one-night stand.
“If your dude has a slip up… You know, he f-cked someone. That’s one thing. I wouldn’t forgive that, but I could see how women could say, ‘Let’s go to therapy and work through this.’ That was not my situation,” she confirmed. “That was not at all. I feel my situation is very, very dark and nothing that I represent in any capacity.”
Although Lala never expected Randall to allegedly be unfaithful, she admitted that there were issues in their relationship prior to the cheating scandal that broke in October and ultimately ended their romance.
“Even when we weren’t connecting, I was so loyal and faithful. I was not sending inappropriate text messages. I was like in it. I went straight to him,” she shared. “If I was ever feeling unhappy, I was willing to do couples therapy. I started going to therapy on my own. Like I was doing anything I possibly could to make sure that he and I would stand the test of time.”
But in mid-October, Lala come across a series of posts on social media that seemingly showcased Randall entering a hotel with two women in Nashville.
“He came home. I had seen the pictures. I kind of knew what I wanted to do. We didn’t have a conversation about it and I packed my stuff and I left. No communication about anything,” she disclosed.
And even now, months later, Lala and Randall are only speaking through their lawyers.
“[There’s] really no communication at all,” she noted. “I’m very isolated. I really just want to be around my mom, my kid, my amazing assistant… people who are going to really baby me. My mom actually packed up. When all of this news broke, she packed a bag for three days. That was October 16th. She’s been here ever since.”
After moving out of the Bel Air home she and Randall once shared, Lala moved into a new apartment and began getting acclimated to her new life as a single mom to her and Randall’s nine-month-old daughter, Ocean.
As for her future, Lala said that while she believes she will find “that amazing love” of her life eventually, dating is “beyond on the back burner” at the moment. But when it comes to kids, Lala does want more and said she’s going to “start figuring out options” to expand her family.
Also on the podcast, Lala addressed the possibility of starring on the Real Housewives franchise.
“I would love to do [The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City]. Take me back to my roots. I like [The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills]. But I just think the age is [an issue]. You have to think about, do you have things in common with these people? Just living in the same area is not like a [commonality],” Lala explained.
That said, Lala would love to join the show if Teddi Mellencamp were brought back. As she explained, that would be a “different story” because Teddi “has a young baby,” just as she does.
“If they were to say to me, ‘We would like to transition you into this…’ Yes. Because I’m all about my future and what’s going to get me to the next level,” she revealed.
