Share and Follow

When viewers were introduced to staff at Lisa Vanderpump‘s restaurant during Vanderpump Rules‘ 2013 premiere, it was clear everyone was intertwined in one another’s love lives.

From Stassi Schroeder‘s rocky relationship with Jax Taylor, which took a turn when he hooked up with her best friend Kristen Doute, to Peter Madrigal’s casual connections to several of the waitresses, including Katie Maloney, nothing was off-limits on screen.

Fans were in for a surprise when Lala Kent, who joined the Bravo series in 2014, chose not to share as many details about her love life with the camera. Ahead of filming season 5, the Give Them Lala author started seeing Randall Emmett, but they kept their relationship quiet for two years before going public in 2017.

Since going public with their relationship on Vanderpump Rules, the duo made headlines in October 2021 when the reality star erased all traces of her fiancé on social media. As rumors swirled about Emmett possibly cheated on the performer, Kent was spotted multiple times without her engagement ring. Us Weekly later confirmed their split.

Scroll down for a complete guide to the cast of Vanderpump Rules’ relationships:

Stassi Schroeder
Season 1 of Vanderpump Rules followed Schroeder’s tumultuous romance with fellow SUR employee Taylor. The duo initially called it quits in 2012 when the former bartender confirmed that he had cheated while in Las Vegas. They briefly got back together the following year before splitting again during season 2.  
The New Orleans native was also linked to Frank Herlihy before she started dating Patrick Meagher. The twosome went their separate ways in 2017 after being on and off for four years.
The Vanderpump Rules alum sparked romance rumors with Beau Clark in 2017. Us later exclusively broke the news of their romance and they made their relationship Instagram official in 2018. They announced their engagement the following year. The duo tied the knot in October 2020, after welcoming their daughter, Hartford, that January.
In March 2023, the podcast host announced that she was expecting her second child with Clark. She welcomed their son, Messer, six months later.

Kent was also previously linked to costar Kennedy and opened up about her high school relationship in her book. In Give Them Lala, Kent got candid about her decision to get an abortion after getting pregnant with former boyfriend Carter Hoffman at the age of 22.
“I couldn’t even bring myself to say the word. I’d always felt weird saying it,” she wrote in the 2021 memoir. “I’d had no sedation or anesthesia, and was fully aware of what was happening. Tears streamed down my face from the pain.”
In March 2024, Kent announced she is expecting baby No. 2 through intrauterine insemination (IUI).
