Lala Kent has no sympathy for Vanderpump Rules co-star Tom Schwartz during his divorce from Katie Maloney. Tom and Katie announced their split back in March. While Katie denied Raquel Leviss' claims of asking co-stars to pick sides, Lala made it clear she's already done so.
Lala and Katie have repeatedly spoken about supporting one another amidst their respective splits. Lala ended her engagement to Randall Emmett back in October. Despite sharing 1-year-old daughter Ocean with him, the Utah native wanted zero contact with her ex. Later on, it was revealed Katie informed her about rumors the director cheated. Meanwhile, Lala cut off Schwartz for hanging with Randall. At the time, Katie admitted she couldn't blame her pal for being fed up with the TomTom co-owner. Now, the ever-outspoken Lala continues to not hold back on her feelings about Schwartz.
Lala expressed her opinions on Schwartz during an episode of Give Them Lala, the podcast she once co-hosted with Randall. The single mom recounted an incident at Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright's Father's Day celebration. Lala told her listeners that Jax informed her Schwartz wanted to come over and asked if that was okay. “I was like, ‘It’s your house, you can have whoever you want over'" Lala, who spent Father's Day with Ocean, explained. However, she also told him, "'I’m not going to be very friendly, hope you guys don’t feel awkward when I’m going to be a b-tch.’" In response, Jax explained the newly single Schwartz was lonely and depressed, and "'having a hard time.’” Instead of feeling sympathy for Schwartz, Lala recalled, “I go, ‘Wrong f-cking audience. You think I give a sh-t that he’s sad and he’s having a really hard time? I don’t give a f-ck.'" She went on to imply Schwartz was at fault for his and Katie's split, adding, "'let’s not pretend you didn’t do this to yourself Schwartz.'”
However, despite her strong feelings, the podcaster denied she was "beefing" with Schwartz, adding that her co-star is "not a bad person." Instead, she explained, "At this point of my life, you come correct or I want nothing to do with you.” Lala, who previously slammed Schwartz's BFF Tom Sandoval as unsupportive, continued, “Beefing to me is...there will be a resolution in the end. There’s no resolution. I don’t want you f-cking near me.” Referencing Tom's continued friendship with Randall, Lala said, “I can’t have people around me — you could be as sweet as pie but I’m telling you what, if you maneuver a certain way, you’re a f-cking liability.”
Lala hasn't been shy about calling out co-stars since her dramatic split. At the season 9 reunion, she chastised the cast for not telling her about rumors of the producer's infidelity. After filming the special, she singled out who did and didn't check up on her. Now, it appears she's bringing the same energy for Katie's split. This isn't the only drama brewing amongst the former SURvers. Jax and Brittany are feuding with Stassi Schroeder after missing her Italian wedding. Likewise, there have been other dramatic breakups. This off-camera commotion could be why Bravo ordered Vanderpump Rules season 10.
Seasons 1-9 of Vanderpump Rules are available to stream on Peacock.
