Lala Kent is hitting back at the haters.
Last week, a Bravo fan account shared a photo of the 32-year-old Vanderpump Rules star giving her fellow cast member Tom Sandoval a hug during a day at the beach.
Fans of the Bravo series took to the comment section to share their thoughts, with many voicing their frustrations with the cast’s acceptance of Tom back into the group given how things ended in season 10.
Lala addressed the controversy during a recent episode of her podcast, Give Them Lala.

“It is a very long day of shooting. I go home and I retreat because I don’t want to deal. The next day I get a text from Scheana [Shay] saying, ‘Hey. How are you?’” she recalled. “This was one of those days when she asks how am I doing and I am in the hole. So I said, ‘I am a little depressed today. Feeling a little down.’”
Lala said that she didn’t realize why Scheana was checking in on her at first.
“It was about that photo that came out of me awkwardly hugging Tom Sandoval. Then I realize how much I don’t give a f—k. Don’t care about the picture and I am completely removed,” she shared. “Although there are things happening in life and things I am doing, I have a sense where I am removed from it. I don’t live in the comments section.”
Lala compared the situation to when Scheana posted a cast photo with Tom and fans complained in the comment section.
“Scheana went through the same kind of thing. She was affected by it. Understandably so,” she said. “I literally had no idea what she was talking about. I don’t want to see it.
“If you are going to watch this episode on YouTube, please don’t comment stupid things that are not productive for me to see,” Lala added. “It’s not like I’m sandwiched between [Jeffrey] Epstein and Harvey [Weinstein] waiting for [Jeffrey] Dahmer to come join in. Everyone calm the f—k down.”
