The couple met in December 2015 when Randall came into a restaurant where Lala was working. 

"He came in for a Christmas dinner and sent his assistant up to me and asked me if he could get my manager’s contact info because he wanted me in a film," Kent told Cosmopolitan magazine in 2018. "And so then we started that whole process, I booked the film, and then we just had this instant connection. It was my first season of ['Vanderpump Rules']. I think only like, three episodes had aired of Season 4."

Lala and Randall welcomed their baby girl, Ocean, in March 2021. 

"Now that the baby’s out and thriving, we have had some really good date nights and have found a way to have our [time] where everybody is out of the way," the exec told Us Weekly in May 2021. "We’re thriving."

In October 2021, Lala deleted all photos of Randall from her Instagram account and "liked" a meme about the producer cheating on her. He allegedly cheated on Lala while on a trip to Nashville. 

In December, Lala addressed the allegations on her podcast. "Unfortunately, for me, my head has been in the sand," she said on "Give Them Lala" in reference to his behavior. "I don’t know how the f--- I didn’t see a lot of this s---."

"I had my head in the sand for a really long time, but I’m grateful no matter what. What’s five years and some change versus what I would’ve been in?" she reasoned. 

"The second that I felt unsafe – I said this in therapy – I said, ‘The second I get a pit in my stomach, it’ll be a different conversation.’ I got that pit and I got the f--- out… No questions asked. Buh-bye."
