Kristen, Please Explain James!

As things went from bad to worse in Kristen Doute and James Kennedy's relationship before the couple finally called it quits this season of Vanderpump Rules, it'd be natural to wonder what she ever saw in him in the first place. Well, Kristen finally revealed all during her appearance on Watch What Happens Live Monday night. "He was a rebound from Tom [Sandoval]," Kristen told Andy Cohen. "I don't want to give him any credit. He had a stupid British accent and stupid blue eyes. He made me want to be skinnier."

How to Watch

Watch Vanderpump Rules on Bravo Tuesdays at 8/7c and next day on Peacock. Catch up on the Bravo app.  

In fact, the SURver went on to say that she doesn't think James' feelings for her were ever that genuine. “Yes, a million percent. I think James used me to be on the show,” Kristen said.

As we've seen on Vanderpump Rules, James has already moved on, and there may be a new man in Kristen's life who is also a familiar face. Kristen touched on the rumors that she's dating Aleks Taldykin from Season 1 of Below Deck. "You have to watch the season. I can't give things away," Kristen teased. "You will see Aleks on this season of Vanderpump Rules."

While we wait to see if this dream Bravoleb couple comes true, check out more from Kristen's appearance on WWHL with Beth Stern in the pics, below.
