“Vanderpump Rules” stars Scheana Shay and Lala Kent are not down with being labeled hypocrites for showing support for Ariana Madix after Tom Sandoval allegedly cheated on her with fellow costar Raquel Leviss.
Both women have been fiercely #TeamAriana since TMZ’s shocking report on Friday, which said Sandoval and Leviss have been in a secret relationship with each other as far back as Summer 2022 … a relationship Ariana apparently only found out about last week, causing her to split from her longtime partner.
Kent was one of the first people to speak out on social media after the news made headlines, saying, “I’ve known these two are disgusting from the jump.” She later slammed Sandoval’s semi-apology over the weekend, in which he asked friends to not take their anger out on his bar, Schwartz & Sandy’s, but didn’t mention Madix at all.
After she went in, some of the show’s followers started bringing up how she and James Kennedy recently admitted to having sex up with each other while they were both in the beginning stages of dating other people. At the time of their hookup, Lala just started to date Randall Emmett, while James was with Raquel. On Instagram Saturday, she addressed her critics.
“Since so many wanna point out James and I hooking up,. Let’s not forget that reunion where R*quel said, ‘We really started our relationship after I moved in with him,'” she began. “And we now know R*ndall was indeed married at the time (& lied about it), and you can’t cheat on a married person.”
“So as far as I’m concerned, James and I were two single people having a gooooood time. Enough with your noise,” she added. “It’s starting to sound like S*ndovals band and it’s hurting my freshly pinned back ears.”
Shay got similar criticism after she posted a photo of her alongside Madix, commenting, “Always got your back! #TeamAriana.”
One her Shay’s followers asked, “Wonder who had [Brandi Glanville’s]? So quick to team up but let’s not forget you walked in [Raquel’s] shoes.”
In case anyone forgot: Way back when “Vanderpump Rules” started, Shay was linked to Eddie Cibrian, who was married at the time. She’s always insisted she didn’t know he was married when they were hooking up — and said she called it off with him when she found out.
Scheana’s response to the critics: “I don’t recall having an affair with my best friends bf KNOWINGLY but go off!”
