Kristen Doute appeared on Wednesday’s episode of Watch What Happens Live, where she revealed if her fiancé, Luke Broderick, could actually be the father of Lala Kent‘s youngest daughter,1-year-old Sosa.
After it was revealed that Luke, 34, had donated to the sperm bank Lala, 35, used to conceive on the premiere episode of The Valley season three, Kristen, 43, addressed the topic, reacted to Luke’s chat with Jesse Lally, 45, about their intimacy issues, and shared when she last saw Jax Taylor, 46, while also confirming her status with Ariana Madix, 40, reacting to Michelle Saniei‘s split from Aaron Nosler, and weighing in on Amanda Batula and West Wilson‘s romance reveal.
“It would be so our group for that to be true. But Lala’s batch was a lot fresher than Luke’s college sperm. So no. That’s what they told her. It was a fresh batch,” she explained of the Luke-Lala ordeal on the April 1 episode of WWHL.
Then, after noting that she was a fan of Jesse’s girlfriend, Lacy Nicole, Kristen reacted to Luke’s statement about their lack of intimacy post-baby.
“It’s a conversation Luke and I have had many times,” she admitted.
While she and Lala feuded for some time after Vanderpump Rules came to an end, Kristen said that she was “excited” to see her added to the cast since they’d “very much made up” before filming began.
As for Jax’s exit ahead of season three, Kristen said his absence was a “breath of fresh air.”
“We can all breathe. There’s not so much energy, like, he just commands a conversation, so now we all get to converse and live lives,” she explained, noting that she had recently run into him at the home he once shared with Brittany Cartwright, 36.
“I saw him the other day at Britany’s house. He was there to pick up [their son, Cruz] … I’ve seen him a few times. We just, sometimes he acknowledges me, sometimes he doesn’t,” she shared.
Looking back on Brittany’s since-ended romance with Brandon Hanson, which some felt happened too soon after her and Jax’s split, Kristen said she “trusted” Brittany’s judgement.
“It was someone from home. And it was like, let Britany get her sparkle back,” she reasoned.
Regarding when she last spoke to Ariana, and the potential sale of her former home with Tom Sandoval, 43, Kristen revealed, “I probably talked to her a week or two ago. We text pretty often just to keep in touch and thank God. It’s been a minute.”
She then admitted to being “pretty surprised” to hear about Michelle, 37, and Aaron’s breakup.
Also on the live broadcast, Kristen reacted to the recent reveal of Amanda and West’s romance.
“I’m not one to throw stones before anyone tries to go back 14 years and be like, ‘Kristen, you know what you did and blah blah blah.’ I’m a mom now. But I just really feel for [Ciara Miller], and I don’t think you should throw something away for a fling … and [Kyle Cooke], too, like I love Kyle and I know the internet’s like, ‘Who cares about Kyle?’ I care about Kyle, but I really feel for Ciara. Like, that’s her best friend.”
Later, on the WWHL: After Show, Kristen explained how filming The Valley was different after becoming a mom.
“Having mom brain, Kaia being so little, and just, we didn’t have a nanny or any childcare help at first. So it was just like, as you see in the first episode, just walking out of the door, other than taking her for a little stroll, I wasn’t social yet,” she explained. “I wasn’t putting makeup on. I was barely remembering to brush my teeth. I was just in baby mode. So it was very different.”
That said, she did get drunk one time after giving birth.
“And it was the finale,” she teased.
The Valley season three airs Wednesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
