Pregnant Lala Kent goes make

Lala Kent draped her baby bump in an elegant maternity dress when she surfaced in Los Angeles on Tuesday while awaiting the arrival of her second daughter.

She announced her latest pregnancy in March, posting a heart-melting snap of her three-year-old daughter Ocean beaming up at her burgeoning belly.

Lala is still locked in a rancorous custody battle with Ocean's father, movie producer Randall Emmett, more than two years after their split. 

Bruised by her experiences and determined not to 'share my child again,' Lala opted for artificial insemination with a sperm donor. 

This week, she stepped out for a green juice while modeling a stylish fossil grey dress, jazzed up with a couple of gleaming necklaces that caught the sunlight.

The appearance came before Vanderpump Rules aired its explosive finale - in which Lala raged at her co-star Ariana Madix for her 'bulls***' over 'Scandoval,' per People.

In March 2023, Ariana left her boyfriend of nine years Tom Sandoval when she learned he was having an affair with her friend Rachel Leviss, then known as Raquel.

The roiling fallout of 'Scandoval' has continued through the latest season, culminating in Ariana's fiery outburst on the finale.

When Tom approached her and attempted 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 ultimately 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***.'

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 

However she noted Tom 'did not kill somebody,' rounding off her point: 'I never in my life experienced someone who gets cheated on and suddenly she becomes God.' 

Last month she posted a sweet video from her gender reveal party showing the exact moment she discovered she was having a daughter.

Her brother Easton Burningham sliced into a vanilla cake and excitedly announced to the room that the frosting inside was pink. 

'It's pink?' Lala said in shock, before leaning forward to catch a glimpse of the inside of the cake and then shrieking joyfully when she confirmed the news.

The party included Lala's mother Lisa Burningham, as well as friends including her former Vanderpump Rules co-star Stassi Schroeder. 

She previously explained on Amazon Live: 'I did not pick the gender because I did IUI [Intrauterine insemination], which is where my eggs stay inside my body.'

Lala said: 'I we'nt to a doctor, they put a little tube up there with the goods and I get what I get, so I didn't get embryos created like they do with IVF [in vitro fertilization].'

She recently threw a birthday party for little Ocean and welcomed her old Vanderpump Rules co-stars Stassi, Katie Maloney and Scheana Shay.

Last momth, she posted a sweet video from her gender reveal party showing the exact moment she discovered she was having a daughter 

Stassi and her husband Beau Clark brought their three-year-old daughter Hartford, while Scheana and her husband Brock Davies arrived at the party with their two-year-old daughter Summer, ensuring the birthday girl had company her own age.

Lala also invited Ambyr Childers - Randall's ex-wife - as well as Ambyr and Randall's daughters London and Rylee, who are Ocean's half-sisters.

In a recent Amazon Live appearance, Lala shed some light on why she conceived via artificial insemination rather than doing so naturally.

'The best part about my baby daddy is that he does not exist. I have been pretty open about wanting to really have full control of - I guess not my child, but having them around me all the time,' she explained. 

'I went through a really hard time with my past and just with Ocean,' she noted without mention Randall's name. 'For me, my child will never be up for grabs again.' 

Lala and Randall broke up in 2021 amid a swirl of allegations that he had cheated on her, and the consequent custody battle is still thundering ahead.

By 2022 she was so disillusioned with the idea of co-parenting that she declared she would only have her next child with a sperm donor.

'I will not even attempt to try and do it a different way. I don't want another person involved,' she said on Scheana's podcast Scheananigans.

Although there was always the chance a boyfriend could 'come into my life,' she was 'not taking a chance' on raising a child with someone else again. 

'There's such a high chance of it not working out, especially where we live. Like, I am so scarred from all of this s*** that has happened in my life.'
