Reality TV star Lala Kent talks about blessed life as a single mom of two

Ryan Brennan | July 13, 2025

Lala Kent is deep-diving into motherhood — and she might not be done yet!

The 34-year-old former “Vanderpump Rules” star shares one child — a daughter named Ocean Kent Emmett — with her ex-fiancé Randall Emmett, who she was engaged to from 2018 to 2021. 

Kent welcomed a second daughter, Sosa, in September via intrauterine insemination (IUI).

During a recent interview with Parents.com, Kent opened up about life as a mother of two since learning that she won’t be returning for the 12th season of “Vanderpump Rules.” 

“Reality TV fuels my soul. It's just part of who I am. With that being said, I definitely don't think it's the end of the road for me, but I have really been enjoying this time off,” she told the outlet. 

Bravo announced in November that the new season of VPR will feature “a new group of SUR-vers.” 

While Kent has voiced “mixed feelings” about the shakeup, she’s also been open about the positives. 

“I've been able to deep dive into motherhood, and I haven't missed a moment. I'm at every pickup, every drop off, every time these kids wake up and go to bed; I've been there,” she explains, per Parents.com. 

“And these moments are very fleeting at this age — it goes by very fast,” she added. 

She goes on to admit that she has “gotten to know (herself) as a mother” during her break from reality TV and doubled down on her decision to be a single mother following her split from Emmett

“I just never thought that this would be my norm but it feels so effing normal,” she told Parents.com. “My whole dynamic, being a house full of chicks — how did I get so lucky to have this life?”

Kent likened the past year to the year she had after welcoming Ocean in 2021, when VPR stopped filming due to the COVID-19 pandemic. 

“I got to bond with Ocean and figure out being a new mom,” she said of the timing of Ocean’s birth. 

“So, with Vanderpump getting canceled when Sosa came into the mix? I get to enjoy her. I really feel like the universe is on my side,” she added of her second daughter. 

Kent describes her growing family as a ‘well-oiled machine’

Elsewhere in the interview, Kent opened up about her personal “evolution” into life as a parent. 

“I feel like we sunk right into this new dynamic. It is so fulfilling and it's difficult, but we're a well-oiled machine,” she said of her and her other cast members who are now parents. 

Kent later admits that her daughter wants more siblings, which leads to a surprising admission of her own.

“I just don’t think I’m done. I think I need one more,” she said. “I am loving it so much that I'm not ready for the stages to be over as they pass. 

According to Kent, her plan is to welcome a third baby while Sosa is still in her 2’s — which would mean getting pregnant “within the next year,” per Parents.com.

“I didn't love that Ocean and Sosa are three and a half years apart,” she admitted. “I like sticking to the two-and-a-half range. But you know what? The universe has a plan for me, and we just roll with it.”

Kent isn’t the only one who’s evolving in her family

Kent goes on to describe her older daughter, Ocean, as an “old soul” whose “wise beyond her years” and thriving as a big sister. 

“When Sosa came into the mix, it just gave Ocean a different level of confidence,” Kent told Parents.com. 

“She really enjoys helping me out, even throwing away a dirty diaper,” she added. “She's like, ‘I touched a poopy diaper!’ She really sunk into becoming a little caretaker, and it's adorable to watch.”

Not afraid to help at home — and not afraid to speak her mind at school, according to Kent. 

“Ocean walked up to a parent the other day, tapped them and said, ‘Your daughter did this to me today, and it really hurt my feelings. I think she needs to apologize. Could you talk to her?’” Kent recalled. 

“Maybe she learned it from me, but all I know is my jaw was on the floor,” she added. “If that's how Ocean was feeling, she should talk about it.” 

On June 17, Kent took to Instagram to share a photo of Ocean on her last day of school

In one photo, Ocean revealed that her favorite color is hot pink, favorite food is sushi, favorite song is “APT.” by Rosé and Bruno Mars, favorite animal is a horse and favorite memory is playing in the yard.

“Last day of school 🥹 My baby thrived. Love you, O!” Kent wrote in the caption

The post came two days after she paid tribute to herself (and sperm donor) on Father’s Day.
