Tom Schwartz and Lala Kent are facing rumors of a potential dating relationship.
Following the news of Schwartz’s breakup from Sophia Skoro, 24, the 42-year-old Valley cast member appeared on Lala’s podcast, where the two of them gushed over their relationship and prompted an insider to come forward and claim the Vanderpump Rules alums were “together.”
“They are actually together,” the unidentified source alleged, via Bravo and Cocktails on Instagram on June 24. “I see them all the time at the bistro I work at and he’s always picking up the bill. They just need to come out and be HONEST!”
Earlier this week, on the June 23 episode of Give Them Lala, via Virtual Reali-Tea on Instagram, Lala, 34, admitted to having a soft spot for Schwartz, telling listeners that if she had to select between the men on Pump Rules, she would’ve chosen him as the father to her daughters, four-year-old Ocean and nine-month-old Sosa.
“I got asked what Vanderpump cast member I would choose as my baby daddy or my sperm donor … and I said you … I don’t feel like you’d give me a hard time,” reasoned Lala, who has appeared to be single since welcoming Sosa, via sperm donor, in September 2024.
“I’m so easy!” Schwartz agreed. “We don’t see each other a ton, but I consider you one of my best friends.”
“I have a very soft spot in my heart for you,” Lala replied.
After the quotes from the episode were shared, a number of fans weighed in on a possible romance between Schwartz and Lala, many of whom shipped the situation.
“They’ve always been like this … if he and La date, it could work!!” one person suspected.
“Two of my all time faves!!!” shared another.
“They should totally date!” exclaimed a third.
“I’m so here for it,” someone else agreed.
Last week, while appearing on an episode of Watch What Happens Live, Schwartz confirmed his split from Sophia and revealed he’s back on good terms with his ex-wife, Katie Maloney, 38.
“I just saw her the other day. She looked gorgeous … She dropped off the dogs, and she’s happy. She’s in love and she’s crushing it on her podcast. And I’m happy when she’s happy, I truly am,” he shared.
The Valley season two airs Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
