Scheana Shay is clearing up what’s going on amidst her feud with Lala Kent. The Vanderpump Rules alums have been beefing and exchanging comments about their relationship on their respective podcasts. But now, Scheana is clearing the air on everything.
Scheana took to her podcast on Oct. 3, where she addressed how she’s been feeling about Lala’s comments (more on that down below) about why she didn’t post about her memoir when it was released. “After extending grace last week, I do feel the need to address it because Lala knows why our friendship is in the state that it’s in,” she admitted. “And on the podcast, she did not take accountability. This is not just about not posting my book for a week. It’s about so much more than that.”
“She made it public without maybe even realizing it when she didn’t post,” she continued. “So I’m in interviews that whole first week, every day, some all day, that first week of book press. I can’t tell you how many times I got asked, ‘How are you and Lala? Are things with you OK?’ People in the audience at my live shows, when they would send in questions and whatnot, were asking about Lala and were like, ‘Oh, are you guys good? She still hasn’t posted your book.'”
“And I’m like, ‘Yeah I noticed that,'” she added.
Scheana Shay explains why she feels “betrayed” by Lala Kent in the fallout
Scheana continued, alleging that Lala told a mutual friend about her husband, Brock Davies, having an affair during her pregnancy with Summer. Scheana said that Lala allegedly told their shared friend about it in February, and did not let her know about it until much later.
“She did it to humanize me, because she said that she was going so hard on me and she wanted to tell her about what I was going through,” she said. “Now, I understand the intent was not malicious. I get that you wanted to explain something to someone. But this is someone I have had a friendship with for 15 years. This is someone who I think, if you’re like, ‘I just found out something extremely devastating, extremely personal. Scheana has been going through something for the last couple of years. I know she’s going to talk about it in her book. This isn’t my place. But like, trust me, you’ve got to give this girl some grace.'”

Scheana said that after Lala told their mutual friend, said friend went on to tell other people. “My own husband betrayed me,” she added. “My closest friends betrayed me. It was the same sort of feelings of betrayal that I’m feeling right now before I’m about to leave for book tour.”
Lala Kent says she and Scheana Shay are in a “very strange place”
Lala admitted that she is in a “very strange place” with Scheana on a Sept. 29 episode of her podcast, after she didn’t post about Scheana’s book on Instagram, following the July release of her memoir. “What are you so mad about all the time?” Lala pondered. “Why do you continue to scrape the bottom of the barrel to find the s—t?”

In spite of their feud, Lala and Scheana’s daughters have continued to hang out and remain BFFs. But Lala shared her hopes for Scheana as they navigate their issues. “I want her to take a moment to self-reflect and figure out what makes her tick and what keeps her happy, genuinely happy.”
See what else Scheana has had to say about her friendship with Lala, which has its “ebb and flow.”
