Did Lala Kent shade a Vanderpump Rules alum? She admitted that she hurt Kristen Doute’s feelings when she last appeared on Watch What Happens Live in April. Read on to see what happened and to learn more.

Lala Kent feels “so stupid” for her insensitive comment

Host Andy Cohen Cohen asked Lala Kent which Pump Rules co-star she would “trust the least” to watch her daughter, Ocean Emmett. She named Kristen Doute to the shock of everyone. This came during her recent appearance on WWHL.

Some fans mistook Lala Kent’s answer as shade. They wondered if the two friends were on the outs once again. She explained the reason behind her answer on the latest episode of her podcast, Give Them Lala. The Bravo star realized that she hurt Kristen’s feelings when she made that joke.

However, Lala didn’t mean anything by it. She was poking fun at her former co-star’s klutziness. Kristen approached her about it when they both attended the birthday party of Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright’s son, Cruz Michael Cauchi, last month. The two have since hashed things out and are on good terms.

At the time, Lala saw nothing bad about her comment. She hoped that her friend would be in on the joke and would understand what she was talking about. However, Kristen revealed to Lala that she was hurt by her joke. She thought it meant that Lala didn’t trust her to be alone for the weekend with her child.

“I thought she would laugh about it because she’s broken the same toe 17 times, she’s constantly falling, she’s the inflatable carwash man,” Lala Kent explained on her podcast. “And that’s how we know her so that’s how I thought she would obviously laugh about it.”

She only named Kristen in a joking manner. The Give Them Lala founder said that she was only trying to have fun in a light-hearted situation. If she had a sit-down interview with Oprah Winfrey, she would act differently. Lala didn’t realize that her response would come across differently.

Now, Lala Kent sees how that comes across now. When Kristen first approached her about her feelings, she said that she felt “so stupid.” But, Lala assured her friend that she wasn’t being “stupid.” She understands how the joke could be misconstrued.

“I was like, ‘It’s not stupid. I look at you like you’re so tough and unaffected, and I meant that to be lighthearted, but it didn’t hit that way, it came off as mean, and that was not my intention,” Lala Kent said.

She then asked Kristen how they could reduce the tension between them. Kristen told her, “Honestly, just you acknowledging my feelings.” Lala said that the former VPR co-star is “so sweet” with her one-year-old daughter. She notices that Kristen is always “doting on her.”
