This season of Vanderpump Rules is in full swing and so is the drama. From episode to episode, it’s hard to keep track of who is friends with who and who can’t stand who. One person who always seems to have at least one enemy is Lala Kent.

Throughout her time onVanderpump Rules, she’s argued with every girl on the show, not to mention her numerous fall outs with resident DJ James Kennedy.

But this season, it seems like Kent is on a rampage like never before.

Who has Kent feuded with on ‘Vanderpump Rules’?

This season, alone, Kent has had a number of arguments. First, she argued with Kennedy after he called Katie Maloney-Schwartz fat.

Then, she took that anger out on Kennedy’s girlfriend, Raquel Leviss. She made remarks about Leviss’ intelligence and alluded to the fact that Leviss couldn’t be smart if she was with Kennedy.

But perhaps one of the most surprising feuds that Kent has had this season has been with new server, Billie Lee. When Lee first came onto the show, the two seemed to get along well. But somewhere down the line, things between them got ugly.

“Billie is just a very strange person,” Kent recently said on The Daily Dish podcast. “I think she likes to stir the pot; I think she’s looking for her five minutes and I gave that to her, so she’s welcome, you know. I say what’s up to her, I tell her she looks chic, ’cause she does, and I always speak the truth. Even if I don’t care for you and you look good, I’ll tell you you look good. But yeah, I don’t have much to say about her; I think she’s an extra on our show and she shows up and does a great job as such.”

Billie Lee grew up in a small town with no exposure to transgender people, but as a child, she knew innately that her anatomy was at odds with how she identified gender-wise. Without any reference or knowledge that the trans community even existed, she struggled with her identity daily. In an attempt to fit in, she tried to embrace her masculinity, but despite her best efforts, she could not suppress the “feminine essence” that was integral to her personality. Her attraction to boys, which was regarded as unacceptable, and her confusion over the discrepancy between her mind and body resulted in bouts of depression, anger, sadness and suicidal thoughts.

The weird thing is that Lee comforted Kent when her father died, yet the two still can’t seem to get to a good place with one another.

Where did the feud between Kent and Lee start?

This season, the animosity between the two girls started when Lisa Vanderpump held a meeting to discuss Kennedy’s behavior. During the meeting, Lee claimed that Kennedy only misbehaved because Kristen Doute was always around and suggested that Doute be banned from SUR. Kent quickly defended Doute which caused her to get into a screaming match with Lee.

Why is Lee nervous to see Kent?

Now that the season is almost over, the cast is coming together again to film the reunion and Lee isn’t too excited to see her current onscreen nemesis.

“We’re about to film that, and I’m really nervous because she’s really mean,” Lee told Us Weekly of the reunion. “I’ve heard things that, like … she’s not sorry for any of it and she would do it over and over again.”

She went on to describe how Kent made her feel throughout this past season.

“There’s so many children out there that are being bullied by people like her,” Lee continued. “She’s very powerful, and when someone’s powerful and they’re mean, it really hurts. I remember watching back recently how I felt when I went through that and I was really depressed and I feel like I’m in high school again, you know? It’s really weird. It makes me think about all the kids who are out there dealing with insecurities. I’m an insecure person — I have insecurities about my looks — and for her to call me ‘boring to look at,’ there’s just a lot of things that were triggering me, and I’m honestly afraid to confront her.”

Vanderpump Rules airs on Mondays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo
