Lala Kent Teases Scheana Shay Getting Involved in Drama on 'The Valley’

While both Lala Kent and Scheana Shay made appearances on season 2 of The Valley, only one of them brought the drama on screen.

On an episode of the “Juicy Scoop” podcast with Heather McDonald on January 30, Lala, aged 34, talked about her appearance on “The Valley.” She mentioned that she plays a smaller role in the show and emphasized that she appears briefly because she was heavily pregnant during filming. Lala expressed curiosity about how her part would be portrayed on the show.

Lala was more excited to see Scheana’s scenes. “Scheana is a part of it,” she noted. “I think she gets her hands a little bit dirty, which I love.”

Alongside Lala and Scheana, aged 39, viewers can also expect to see Tom Schwartz and Brock Davies in the “Vanderpump Rules” spinoff, “The Valley.” The production for “The Valley” had already started before Bravo officially announced a major cast revamp for season 12 of “Vanderpump Rules.”

The Valley, which debuted in March 2024, reintroduced Bravo viewers to Jax Taylor, Brittany Cartwright and Kristen Doute along with their new circle of friends. The trio originally rose to reality TV stardom when they appeared […]

Executive producer Alex Baskin expressed excitement in a statement from November 2024 about the opportunity to continue the series’ legacy with a fresh approach. Acknowledging the original cast’s contribution, Baskin looks forward to introducing a new set of coworkers and friends navigating life together to the audience.

Bravo originally put VPR season 12 on pause after the cast ended up at odds following Tom Sandoval‘s split from Ariana Madix due to his affair with Rachel “Raquel” Leviss. While the new cast has yet to be announced, multiple former stars have opened up about being ready for a change.

“I am excited for new opportunities ahead outside of Vanderpump Rules, but I’m also a nostalgic person and it’s never easy to say goodbye,” Scheana shared on a December 2024 episode of her “Scheananigans” podcast. “Lala and I had a good cry about it on the podcast, something that was such a big part of my life for so long. But also I think it was time. Honestly, it all feels right. It’s still all happening. It’s just happening a little differently.”

Scheana noted that the news about season 12 didn’t come as a surprise to her.

“Any sad feelings that I have about not returning for season 12 are mostly not being able to work with that crew anymore. I loved the crew that we’ve had and hopefully, we’ll be able to work together on other projects because we became like a family,” she continued. “So that was definitely the hardest part. And the whole thing was bittersweet. It’s sad to say goodbye, but excited for the new servers and the next chapter of their lives.”

While reflecting on the end of an era, Scheana confirmed she had no plans to make amends with any of her now-former costars.

“I don’t think I will change anything that I have been [doing]. I text Ariana here and there. I ran into Katie [Maloney] at a festival, but I’m not going to reach out more [or] reach out less,” she explained. “I’m just going to continue doing what I’ve been doing because show or no show, all of these people have been in our lives for so long.”

She concluded: “So it’s like, ‘When I see you, I see you. And when I don’t, I’m living my life.’ I’m just going to continue on the same path I’m on and excited for new adventures.”

The Valley, meanwhile, followed the same cast after being a success in its first season. Jax Taylor, Brittany Cartwright and Kristen Doute are starring in season 2 alongside Luke Broderick, Danny Booko and Nia Booko, Jesse Lally and Michelle Lally and Jason Caperna and Janet Caperna.
