Lala Kent appeared in Los Angeles this week while expecting the birth of her second daughter, decked up in a summery white ensemble that accentuated her 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 belly.
In March, she revealed her most recent pregnancy by sharing a touching photo of her three-year-old daughter Ocean grinning at her growing tummy.
More than two years after their breakup, Lala and Ocean’s father, film director Randall Emmett, are still embroiled in a bitter custody dispute.
Hurt by her ordeal and resolved not to “share my child again,” Lala, 33, chose to use a sperm donor for artificial insemination.
When she went out for ice cream this week, wearing an off-the-shoulder sweater and a stylishly pleated maternity skirt, she was the epitome of California style.

She wore her waves of honey blonde hair over her shoulders and accessorized with a huge pair of butterfly shades.
Lala is reportedly in “early talks” to get back together with former cast members of Vanderpump Rules, Jax Taylor, Brittany Cartwright, and Kristen Doute on The Valley.
The Valley centers on the characters of Brittany, Jax, and Kristen as they make the move from fast-paced city life to cozy suburbia.
Lala will stay on Vanderpump Rules, which a source told Page Six is “her home,” even if she does decide to join them in the end. It’s not a case of either or.
News of her most recent project surfaced in the midst of Lala’s harsh criticism of Ariana Madix, her co-star on Vanderpump Rules, in the drama that is still going on in “Scandoval.”
Last year, Ariana left her boyfriend of nine years Tom Sandoval after discovering she was having an affair with their friend Raquel Leviss, now known as Rachel.
Since all three parties were on Vanderpump Rules, the explosive controversy brought a torrent of welcome publicity to the show.
Ariana became a figure of widespread public sympathy, while Raquel received a backlash so fierce she retreated to a mental health facility for two months.
She announced her latest pregnancy last month, posting a heart-melting snap of her three-year-old daughter Ocean beaming up at her burgeoning belly
In April, she posted a sweet video from her gender reveal party showing the exact moment she discovered she was having a daughter
However, Lala locked horns bitterly with Ariana over the past season, particularly on because of Ariana’s fiery outburst during the finale.
Cast members and producers were seen getting frustrated with what Lala characterized as Ariana’s ‘bulls***’ refusal to film with Tom.
When Tom approached her and tried to apologize, Ariana refused to hear him out, declaring that he ‘does not deserve to speak to me.’
In a confessional, she explained: ‘Whatever it is that Tom is trying to get for me, it’s not for me, it’s for him. I am the final boss in his video game of redemption and because he can’t get to the final boss, he’s f***ing pissed.’
Lala became incensed at Ariana for not filming with Tom – pointing out that the two exes were still able to live in the same house.

‘This happened to her. The world rallied around her. She now thinks she is Beyoncé,’ Lala sneered. ‘It’s bulls*** that she can’t film with someone because she stays under the same roof. It’s a lot. It’s a lot that she’s saying: “Don’t f*** with Tom Sandoval…but, I’m gonna sleep down the hall from Tom Sandoval.”‘
She added: ‘I get it, he f***ing cheated. You did a really f***ing s***y thing. It was weird how you looked us all in the eye and said a lot of s***.’
However she noted Tom ‘did not 𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁 somebody,’ marveling: ‘I never in my life experienced someone who gets cheated on and suddenly she becomes God.’
‘I’m going to be real about Ariana,’ Lala doubled down in a confessional. ‘She coasts through every single f***ing season. And we are asking you to have one conversation with Tom Sandoval – the guy you shoved down our throats for so many years.’
The reality TV bombshell added: ‘That guy, who you still live with – we are asking you to have one conversation and you can’t do that?’
Lala herself ended her relationship with Randall under a cloud of rumors that he had been unfaithful to her – to which he has never publicly confessed.
