Lala Kent and Randall Emmett Settle Custody Battle 3 Years After Breakup

Lala Kent is getting candid about a difficult period.

The Vanderpump Rules star reflected on her 2021 breakup from ex-fiancé Randall Emmett, which she called, "the most horrendous time of my life," sharing how that the ordeal ultimately took a drastic toll on her body.

“Brittany, you remember, I was down to, like, 90 pounds,” Lala told longtime friend Brittany Cartwright, on the March 14 episode of the When Reality Hits with Brittany Cartwright podcast. “I couldn’t eat. I was not well."

Nearly four years later, the 34-year-old—who shares 3-year-old Ocean with the former movie producer—is thankful she never has to "deal with him ever again."

“Like, ‘You’re OK. That time of your life is over, and you’re on the other side,'” Lala explained she reminds herself. “It’s over. It’s done. That feels so good."

It’s a point she ultimately takes solace in. As she added, “I love being like, ‘You're someone else’s problem.'" 

Still Lala—also a single mom to daughter Sosa, 6 months—knows he isn’t fully out of her life as they co-parent Ocean.

“When you share a child with someone," she continued, "you don’t have the luxury of just going, ‘Goodbye! Get the f--k out of my life!'” 

In fact, Lala and Randall just recently resolved their lengthy custody battle.

“You guys, the custody battle is over,” Lala told fans during an Amazon Live stream March 4. “It’s officially ended. We’re done with it. So there’s my tea for the day.”

Emphasizing that their daughter's well-being comes first, she was happy with the result.

“After over three years, we have signed an agreement that is best for our daughter, Ocean,” she continued. “So I’m very, very happy about that.”

For Lala, coming to an agreement has brought her such relief—on behalf of her and Ocean.

“That has weighed on my heart and soul for so long, and I’m sure it’s done the same for my ex,” she added. “I’m just so happy that we were able to get to a good place for the well-being of our kid.”

Major Milestone

"I’ve been sober for 5 years today," Lala wrote on social media in October 2023. "On this day I replay my rock bottom moment. All the details of what happened on this day. Waking up, admitting I was powerless, and for the first time in many years seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. I’m so grateful for this day"

"I will continue to work hard for my sobriety, & take a moment of silence for the alcoholic who still suffers," she added. "I see you- I love you. Thank you, God. Happy birthday to me!"
