Lala Kent detailed her lingering issues with Ariana Madix post-Vanderpump Rules Season 11.
Season 11 of Vanderpump Rules may be over, but there are still a lot of lingering issues between Lala Kent and Ariana Madix.
Lala aired a few of her residual grievances during the June 10 episode of the Two Ts in a Pod podcast, including what she first brought up during the Season 11 finale about Ariana not wanting to film with Tom Sandoval.
“I want to be around women who work hard and have things that are really cool. I have constantly tried to be very supportive. Not tried, I wanted to be supportive. These are my friends,” Lala explained. “When Ariana started getting opportunities outside of Vanderpump Rules, that’s great for all of us.”
“The show reached a level that it never would have reached without this. And even though it was horrible, I was not mad at the opportunity she was getting outside of the show,” she continued. “What I started getting upset about is now we’re bringing a little bit of divaness to my place of work that I’ve been doing for eight years. And I have a hard time when people think that they are bigger than the show.”
Lala went on to share that her problems with Ariana extend to her boyfriend Daniel Wai, too — more specifically, how quickly Ariana began dating him after her breakup from Sandoval.
“This happened on March 1st, and then I believe she had a wedding by March 10th and had already met a new guy,” she recalled. “You started dating someone, you stayed in the house, you came back to this show. I’m like, I understand the pain you’re going through, but if I’m relating to it, and then I’m seeing how you could move on from something so traumatic, I just don’t see how you could be that devastated.”
Ariana, for her part, has pointed out on more than one occasion that while she may have met Dan soon after her split, they didn’t begin dating for a while.
Lala’s remarks are the latest in her back-and-forth with Ariana, which often involves Katie Maloney, too.
