Tom Sandoval Responds to Lala Kent Saying She’s “Coming” for Him at the Reunion
Plus, hear what the Vanderpump Rules cast member had to say about Tom Schwartz and Raquel Leviss.
Lala Kent made her feelings about her Vanderpump Rules castmate Tom Sandoval quite clear on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen last week, and now he’s returning the favor.
Appearing on the February 21 episode of E! News, Tom was asked about Lala’s comments — including her saying she’s “coming for” him at the Vanderpump Rules Season 10 reunion — and he responded, “Because Lala’s a bully, so she needs something to focus all her anger on and I guess I’m that person. I mean, she will randomly go after somebody just because she’s bored and probably needs a hobby or something.”
At the same time, Tom also acknowledged why Lala might be upset with him: the comments he made on the Vanderpump Rules Season 10 premiere about her getting pregnant with her daughter, Ocean.
“Saying ‘knocked up’… I probably shouldn’t have used that term,” Tom noted.
Lala herself expressed a similar sentiment on WWHL after making the comments about Tom that started the back-and-forth in the first place. “Everything annoys me about him,” Lala said. “And the fact that he said that I should’ve known better than to get knocked up? I did not get knocked up. And at the reunion, I am coming for you, dog.”
She went on to throw additional shade Tom’s way when it came time to discuss his girlfriend, Ariana Madix, during a game dubbed “Lala Vent.”
“I love Ariana,” Lala said. “We just have to get her out next.”
Tom Schwartz also received a not-so-nice response during the WWHL game, and although he appeared alongside Sandoval on E! News, he didn’t give his take on the matter. Schwartz did, however, indulge a couple of questions about that kiss with Raquel Leviss that’s set to play out this season.
Asked about his motivations for said kiss — especially considering he and his ex-wife, Katie Maloney, had previously agreed not to get involved with anyone in their friend group — Tom responded, “Why did I kiss Raquel? I don’t know. It was just one of those moments and it just kind of happened. It was a serendipitous kiss.”
Did any other kisses similarly “just kind of happen” in the following months? Schwartz refused to say, but as Sandoval put it, “You’ll have to see how it plays out.”
