Lala Kent shockingly claimed that Katie Maloney was secretly annoyed with her sandwich shop partner Ariana Madix on Tuesday’s reunion of Vanderpump Rules.
The 33-year-old reality star during the first of three season 11 reunion episodes said she and Katie, 37, had their issues that started when Katie messaged her about her custody battle.
‘You said, ”Get rid of your lawyers, what you need is a f***ing therapist, you’re a f***ing clown”,’ Lala said.
‘What?,’ Katie said.
Lala brought up their tensions over the season and they continued to bicker.

‘I felt abandoned by you this season,’ Lala said.
‘Because I didn’t want to jump on the Tom train?’ Katie said referencing Tom Sandoval, 41.
Lala alleged that Katie had talked off-camera before the season about how Ariana ‘abandoned her in the sandwich shop’ and ‘wasn’t caught up on her rent for the sandwich shop.’
Katie admitted she did wish Ariana would have given her a little notice about going New York City to star in a Broadway show.
Lala said Katie made her look like the enemy.
‘I think there were a few people sitting up here that were living in the comments section all the livelong season,’ Lala said. ‘Katie’s one of them.’
Andy asked if she thought their reaction was how the viewers were reacting to them.
‘It’s no secret that Ariana is a fan favorite, right?’ Lala said. ‘You don’t f*** around with that. And I understand that.’

Katie said she didn’t want to take it to Ariana so she turned to another friend to vent.
Lala claimed that Katie lost her mind and said she wasn’t going to say anything critical because she invested a lot of money in the sandwich shop.
‘And you said to me, ”If you’re gonna f*** with my business Lala, then I’m gonna f*** with yours”,’ Lala added.
‘And honest to God, I wanted to say to you Something About Her is really Nothing About Her right now. You don’t got a business, and mine is my livelihood that I support my child on, so how dare you threaten to f*** with it,’ Lala said.
Sandoval during the episode also called his former mistress Rachel ‘Raquel’ Leviss a ‘f***ing coward’.
The 41-year-old reality star turned on Rachel, 29, during the first of three season 11 reunion episodes after she declined to return to the series after the Scandoval affair.
‘Looking back I think she is a f***ing coward,’ Sandoval said. ‘I’m sorry to say it. And I think her sitting here preaching everybody like she’s moving on but still talking relentlessly about me and everybody is just f***ing ridiculous.’
‘Also spinning a narrative that you masterminded this and she was just a victim is absolute malarkey,’ Tom Schwartz, 41, added.
‘Yeah, we both did this,’ Sandoval said. ‘We both chose to do this. We’re both responsible.’

‘She said that Tom groomed her,’ said reunion host Andy Cohen, 55.
‘Which is beyond f***ing slander considering that she is not underage, that implies pedophilia,’ Sandoval said.
‘No, it doesn’t,’ Lala Kent, 33, said. ‘It’s taking someone who is younger than you and more impressionable than you and someone who’s at a higher level of power than the other person.’
‘Well guess what? I was very impressionable when she took all her clothes off and jumped in my f***ing pool,’ Sandoval said.
‘She’s not a victim,’ Schwartz said.
‘She pursued this as did I,’ Sandoval said of their months-long affair behind the back of his longtime girlfriend Ariana Madix, 38.
‘What you’re saying is you were equal partners in this,’ Andy said. ‘In more legal news, Rachel is suing Ariana and Tom claiming that you took part in revenge porn. What’s the status of the lawsuit?’
‘They can’t answer it,’ Scheana Shay, 38, said. ‘It’s ridiculous. Ariana didn’t send that video to anyone.’

‘Looking back I think she is a f***ing coward,’ Sandoval said of Rachel. ‘I’m sorry to say it. And I think her sitting here preaching everybody like she’s moving on but still talking relentlessly about me and everybody is just f***ing ridiculous’
‘No, it doesn’t,’ Lala Kent, 33, said while challenging Sandoval’s definition of grooming. ‘It’s taking someone who is younger than you and more impressionable than you and someone who’s at a higher level of power than the other person’
‘I don’t understand, I’ve never done anything to her why I’m constantly being..,’ Ariana said.
‘Brought back into this,’ Andy said.
‘It’s one thing for her to come after me, but to come after Ariana, I’m questioning if she has a f***ing soul,’ Sandoval said of Rachel.
Andy asked Sandoval if he was surprised that Rachel didn’t come back this season.
‘I always encouraged her to take some time away from everybody, including myself, and come to your decision that way,’ Sandoval said.
‘Had she come back we would have had a very productive conversation,’ Lala Kent, 33, said.
Lala said credit needs to be given to Sandoval and to Rachel for showing up to last year’s reunion because of all the animosity against them.
Andy asked Ariana the latest on the sale of the house after she filed her complaint against Sandoval. Ariana and Sandoval both said they couldn’t talk about it.
‘She’s not a victim,’ Tom Schwartz said about Rachel
‘They can’t answer it,’ Scheana Shay, 38, said of the lawsuit Rachel filed against Sandoval and Ariana. ‘It’s ridiculous. Ariana didn’t send that video to anyone’
‘I always encouraged her to take some time away from everybody, including myself, and come to your decision that way,’ Sandoval said after Andy asked for his thoughts on Rachel not returning for season 11

Schwartz said he still has been going back and forth about moving in with Sandoval.
‘I’ve put one-hundred grand in rent in the past two years and I feel so salty about that without building any equity,’ Schwartz said.
Lala also shared that she bought a new house and was expecting her second baby girl to be born on September 1. Scheana and Brock said they also bought a house that was just a five-minute walk from Lala’s in the San Fernando Valley.
Lala and Scheana both said they took Sandoval seriously when he said he was so depressed he thought about suicide. Ariana said she was not coming after him so what he was going through was not something she created.
‘Suicidal ideation are something that I’ve dealt with,’ Ariana said. ‘Anxiety and depression are things that I deal with on a daily basis and I just didn’t want to be a part of those conversations.’
Sandoval said he only brought up Ariana’s feelings because he felt they were being used against him ‘in a textbook manipulation’ tactic. Lala told him it wasn’t his place to share Ariana’s private thoughts on camera.
Sandoval said he only compared himself to OJ Simpson and George Floyd regarding the ‘absurdity that this scandal got.’
‘I’m seeing the f***ing scandal sandwiched in between the war in Ukraine and some other s***,’ Sandoval said. ‘ This is stupid. Why are CNN f***ing talking about a cheating scandal on a guilty pleasure reality show.’
‘It was wild,’ Lala said.

Lala said her custody agreement with her ex-Randall Emmett, 53, over their three-year-old daughter Ocean hadn’t been figured out yet and she didn’t see it coming to an end anytime soon.
‘Ultimately, I don’t know what is going to happen with my ex,’ Lala said.
Scheana said her daughter Summer Moon was three, but she still had postpartum OCD. Scheana said her paranoia about Lala and Brock Davies happened because she got caught up in the comments. Lala promised her that would never happen.
Brock said he took a trip with Scheana to Australia but was not able to see his ex-wife and kids. Brock said he had been paid up on his child support for the past two years.
‘It’s at a point where it’s up to the kids,’ Brock said.
Brock started crying when Andy asked if Summer Moon was his second chance of being a dad.
‘Actions have consequences,’ Brock said.
Andy said to Ariana that this year she bounced back from an ‘earth-shattering break up only to land on top of the world.’ He said she booked a ton of brand deals, came in third on Dancing With The Stars, and had a NYT best-selling cocktail book. Andy asked how things were going with her boyfriend Daniel Wai.

Ariana said it’s been really fun but she also didn’t know when she would be fully healed from the breakup.
Sandoval shared that he had a new girlfriend.
‘She doesn’t watch the show,’ Sandoval said. ‘She has her own successful career. She has her own house. She’s a very successful model.’
‘Used to date Leonardo DiCaprio, I read,’ Andy said.
‘Yeah that was a while ago,’ Sandoval confirmed.
Lisa Vanderpump, 63, said she made the decision to close Pump because she couldn’t make a profit with the rent increase. Andy said at the same time Ariana and Katie’s sandwich shop opening was experiencing a series of delays.

‘We did not know what was lying ahead, which was a bunch of red tape and all sorts of issues,’ Katie, 37, said.
Lala asked Ariana how she felt watching her interact with Sandoval, but Ariana confessed she hadn’t watched any of the season.
‘I did not want to get dragged back to this time of my life,’ Ariana said. ‘I was really trying to live in the present and focus on the future.’
Vanderpump Rules will return next Tuesday on Bravo with the second part of the reunion.
