Lala Kent from Vanderpump Rules said when she learned Tom Schwartz recently hung out with ex Randall Emmett, she cut him out of her life. She also said that if Lisa Vanderpump is still in touch with Randall Emmett, then she wants nothing to do with her.

Kent opened up about her (then) fresh split from Emmett during the Vanderpump Rules reunion. She said she was “disgusted” by what happened, which is when Vanderpump seemingly shaded her.

“Sometimes the way you get them is the way you lose them,” Vanderpump told a teary Kent. A few months have passed since the reunion, and Kent recently said if Vanderpump wants to remain friendly with Emmett, he can have her.

Lisa Vanderpump can’t be ‘Switzerland,’ Lala Kent says

Kent did not address if she was in touch with Vanderpump. But during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live, host Andy Cohen mentioned he heard Vanderpump tried to reach out to Emmett. “It seemed notable that LVP is still buddies with your ex,” Cohen said to Kent during the After Show. “I mean that kinda came up at the reunion that she had seen him recently …”

Kent replied, “I don’t know if she’s seen him. I know when everything was happening he was trying to reach out to her. And I’m not the type of person to say you have to pick a side. But in this situation, if you don’t pick my side. Or if you remain Switzerland, like I want nothing to do with you.”

Vanderpump Rules’ Lala Kent cut off Tom Schwartz

Kent also stopped speaking to Tom Schwartz. She also said Sandoval has been the least supportive of her during her breakup. The most supportive? “I would say the most supportive Katie [Maloney] and Scheana [Shay],” Kent said on the After Show. “And the least supportive … Sandoval has yet to even ask me if I’m OK. Or acknowledge it at all.”

“And I learned that Schwartz hung out with that person the other day,” she continued. “So, I cut him off.” Kent added that she is still friends with Ariana Madix.

Randall Emmett says he’s in touch with Jax Taylor and Tom Schwartz

Kent may have been referring to hearing Emmett dish on the Genuinely GG podcast about which Vanderpump Rules cast members he keeps in touch with post-split with Kent.

“I know that he’s now going through a really tough time,” Emmett said about Schwartz, referring to Schwartz and Maloney’s divorce. Emmett also said he’s still in touch and friendly with Jax Taylor. “Jax and I have been friends forever,” he said. “We had lunch yesterday. He’s always been a friend to me and I’ll always be a friend to him.”
