VANDERPUMP Rules fans were shocked at Lala Kent’s comments during the reunion episode.
On Tuesday, the first part of the Vanderpump Rules season 11 reunion aired with cast members returning to hash out their issues over the past season.
Lala appeared to shade her cast mate, Ariana Madix, by sticking up for her friend Rachel Leviss.
Rachel did not appear this season, but filed a law suit against Ariana and her ex Tom Sandoval for supposedly spreading revenge porn.
Lala openly congratulated Rachel for attending the reunion last year despite the tension.
Tom, who previously had an affair with Rachel which subsequently ended his relationship with Ariana, disagreed with Lala.
“Looking back, I think she’s a fucking coward. Like, I’m sorry to say it,” he told the rest of the panel.
Rachel made allegations that Tom sent her letters in to try and manipulate her while she was in a mental health facility.
Lala said Rachel was well within her rights to say that, but Tom said he was disgusted.
Later, Lala addressed the tension between her and Katie Maloney.
Katie was said to have sent her a shady direct message on social media, which said that Lala needed to fire her therapist and lawyer because she’s “A f**king clown.”
Katie did not deny the claims and added that she wished Lala would be kinder to Ariana.
Scheana Shay added that Katie and Lala would speak between takes and their conversations rarely matched what was said on screen.
“You and I are truth-tellers. We say shit how it is,” Lala added.
“So why when the camera goes up am I suddenly the enemy when I’m talking about the same shit we’ve spoken about on the phone?”
Lala then accused Katie of “living in the comment section,” as well as Scheana.
CRITIC’S CORNERThe explosive reunion left fans shocked at Lala’s comments.
Followers flocked to X, formerly Twitter, to express their thoughts.
“Watching Lala’s seething, bitter monologue the second time around… her hypocrisy and jealousy are glaring,” wrote one.
“It’s utterly insulting to Ariana and warrants the end of a friendship. #PumpRules.”
“Mistress Lauren from Utah is freakin insufferable for being an apologist for Raquel Rachel,” added another in refrence to Lala and Rachel’s friendship.
During her time on the show, Rachel went by Raquel.
LEGAL BATTLEEarlier in the night, host Andy Cohen, 55, brought up the ongoing lawsuit between Rachel, Tom, and Ariana.
Rachel accused the former couple of “spreading explicit videos” of her without her consent.
Andy asked both Tom and Ariana if they were allowed to speak on it, but they couldn’t.
“They can’t answer it. It’s ridiculous,” Scheana added.
“Ariana didn’t send that video to anyone, she was not distributing it.
“It was so ridiculous that she is being put through this s**t again as if Rachel didn’t put her though enough last year.”
