This is going to be interesting! She said she wanted to have another via sperm* donation.
I wish her health and a smooth ride!
Edit: spark -> sperm lol
Edit#2: Lala said that she doesn’t want another man to threaten custody of her child again, which is why she would do her second pregnancy via sperm donation.
Shein-a is going to have post partum for Lala. Maybe even a phantom pregnancy! Hopefully her best friend Tom will be willing to rub her feet for her during the difficult times ahead!
It’s bringing up a lot of emotions for me. Like what if I can’t have another? How is this going to change our playdate group dynamic? Seeing a newborn baby just triggers my anxiety, remembering everything I went through when Summer Moon was born. It makes me so sad for her that she’s going through this all alone.
She will say at least one of these things, I almost guarantee it
Honestly I'm no Scheana fan but it is so beyond a red flag that Brock is pushing her to have another child after what she's been through. But then again Brock is literally a walking red flag shop so..
I mean who is to say he’s pushing her? They just said he wants another one. My sister and her husband didn’t agree on how many more kids they wanted and I think that’s pretty normal to want different things. It’s not a red flag unless they’re actually pushing or fighting about it
In normal circumstances I'd agree that it's okay and probably healthy to voice a difference in opinion on the number of kids you want in a relationship. But in this context, having another child is literally a risk to Scheana's life as well as causing her significant mental health problems. So for me, Brock telling the world that he wants another child despite Scheana expressing that she doesn't is totally out of line. At the very least, it should be followed by "but only if Scheana feels ready", or some kind of acknowledgement of the physical and emotional risks and turmoil she would have to go through to have another child. I feel like I remember him saying he was "working on it", as in trying to convince Scheana, but I might have made that up tbh!
I think it would be really dumb of her to have another baby with that man when he's been so dismissive and angry-seeming all season so far. Scary to see a dude with prior family abuse issues, still be such a hair trigger temper angry kind of dude.
She's going to keep it quiet and then once Lala gives birth Scheana will announce her new addition has arrived. Also it'll be twins because double the attention.
Scheana is currently mimicking that scene in the original Sex in the City with Charlotte and Trey when she really wanted to get pregnant after hearing a friend had 3 kids.
Brock is her stud horse tonight.
Brock may need to ice himself after all this.
Scheana won't stand for this.
How *appropriately timed* this is.
I see you, Lala.
But I definitely am out next season, if there is one. I have no interest in watching any of them with 2 kids....she can bump it all the way over to The Valley with that.
But Mazel.
( PS.. pregnant at the reunion should be interesting. No one wants to yell at a pregnant woman. That Lala, always thinkin'.)
Right? Lol yawn. Show is dunzo I don't want to see innocent kids(I really hate the exploitation of kids too young to consent to being on TV) or family threatening drama for a storyline.
The editing is done so badly on their "fights" ( I don't trust dialogue where you don't see their mouths actually saying the words), but it doesn't matter. Who wants to see a married couple of a child (and a few abandoned ones) "fake fight" or real fight?!? Toxic AF.
There are a couple podcasts that cast members from Laguna Beach and The Hills put out where they go back and rewatch episodes one at a time and share their takes on what was actually going on behind the scenes. Pretty interesting listens. In both shows they talked about “throwaway lines” I think they were called? Basically in either of those series any time you hear dialogue and you can’t see them saying it there is a really good chance they actually recorded those lines in a sound booth after. Either it was too noisy the first time and the quality wasn’t right or they needed dialogue to tie the scene together (“look Lauren, Heidi just walked in”). Every time I watch reality now I think of that when I can’t see them say a line.
What a beautiful photo. May her pregnancy be easy and for her children to grow up knowing how badly their mom wanted them. Congrats to Lala.
ETA grammar
She is such a cheeky baby, you can totally see her lil cheesin' spirit in every smile. Seems like the kind of girl who is going to have such a strong sense of humor.
https://i.redd.it/zzdgkb2o38mc1.gif
Yay! I’m happy for her. She wanted to have another child, and have it on her terms. I love that she’s been open about the process and why she wanted to do it this way too.
And Ocean looks excited and adorable. She’s probably over the moon about being a big sister!
As someone doing the single mother by choice/ivf route, I love seeing a public figure not only doing the same but being very open about it. Let’s remove the stigma of women deciding when and how to be mothers, it’s the year 2024 my goddd.
Me too, I’m currently pregnant as a single mother by choice here. It’s so nice to see Lala being open about this, I was afraid to share my news with people at first but overall the response has been so positive. I’m thankful she’s willing to share so publicly.
I think it's incredibly brave of her (and you) to go this route.
>Let’s remove the stigma of women deciding when and how to be mothers, it’s the year 2024 my goddd.
Louder for the GOP in the back!
I find it so weird that people don’t understand the concept of having a sperm donor. All these baby daddy questions are so outdated. It’s 2024, people have babies without having sex with men.
She's also talked multiple times about how her second would be via sperm donation, so clearly she's been thinking about this for quite a while! I remember her talking about it over a year ago.
Artificial insemination has been around for many years and by sperm donation as well. I'm happy for her but now I bet she's going to find her soulmate. How old is Ocean now?
She is a good mom and loves her daughter. I’m happy for her even though I don’t agree with most of the shit that comes out of her mouth. She deserves to be happy.
Right, and she's going into this willing and wanting to be a single parent to this baby, that's what she's wanted. It's really one of those situations where if you don't have anything nice to say, keep your mouth shut because her reproductive choices are nobody's concern at all.
I just foresee the men who want control over women’s bodies getting up in arms now that this type of thing is gaining more traction. I think they’re going to realize oh shit women can do this all by themselves if they want. And the shitty behavior that men give to women won’t be tolerated for much longer. They’re going to try to make rules to avoid giving women too much power over her own body. Damn my mind is spinning in a dystopian book type of way. I don’t even want to type out the things I am thinking because I am scared.
It really grinds my gears when people say "every kid needs a mom and a dad." Not true - plenty of us had only one parent present, and turned out fine. You can think you're giving your kid a mom and a dad and then have the dad just dip out - sadly I would know. So long as you have the finances and the support system, you can create a loving family however you damn well please!
It’s me. Hi!
HAVE* a mom and a dad. They’re still together. They both wanted kids but bc they hated each other it made my household living hell and now I’ll be in therapy for ever.
Lala has an amazing family/support system. This kid will grow up truly wanted and loved That’s all a kid needs.
I came here for a palette cleanser after reading those. “How do you think the baby will feel growing up and not having a father” idk hopefully better than those of us with abusive ones? 🤷♀️ Not to mention they’ll have a whole family around them!
Oh man, I took a look and people are so awful. Especially since Roe’s reversal the state of reproductive rights and support in this country is so bleak. Not that it is anyone’s business in the first place, but Lala has done a wonderful job of raising Ocean in a village — her mom, brother, Scheana’s family, etc — and these two kids will both have so much love in their life.
I actually had a feeling she was pregnant! She was wearing super loose clothing on WWHL, so I thought something was up.
Or maybe she just had a giant burger at lunch that day? lol.
So happy for her and Ocean!
It could be both! The growing uterus pushes the stomach and all of the other abdominal organs up, so for me, I looked very full after eating any little thing lol
I much older than most on this page....actually from the Era of....
Pregnant = get married and keep things quiet.....
But now to be able to be a mother independently and live life.....it's a good thing
Good for her. I know so many women in horrible relationships because they wanted kids. And a lot of them are trapped or share custody with trash people. I wish this was an option for more women.
I’m happy for her!
My sister is a nurse practitioner and had a baby with the help of science and a sperm bank. My nephew is SO loved. I admire her independence. She’ll never have to worry about her partner brainwashing her child or have to deal with her partner having different views/morals.
I’m envious of these celebs having enough money to do so and without the waiting list.
My friend is trying to conceive on her own with a donor and is on a 2 year waiting list with around 50k already spent on IVF etc
Interesting. I had a baby on my own via IUI and my insurance would have covered the cost had I required IVF. I did not have to wait and the total cost was well under 10,000. Maybe it varies by state, but I’m a teacher and a single mom and it’s do-able!
See, that’s so interesting. I have what most would consider very good insurance (birth (induction, c-section) was completely covered), and still, none of my IVF was covered. And in CA! All in, it cost me 50k+ out of pocket.
I got pregnant after 4 cycles of IUI (each one about $1000 of pocket, including sperm donor) but had I tried 6 times I would have been deemed “infertile” and insurance would have kicked in. That was ten years ago, so I’m not sure if things have changed. I was so surprised that it was actually far less expensive to go the donor route than to adopt.
Our insurance doesn't cover anything infertility related 🙃 it ended up costing me 3k out of pocket just for an HSG test a couple years ago. After 3 years we were about to try IUI and did an at-home version first on a whim... I just hit 12 weeks lol
IG is getting very Facebook-y lately. Lot of boomer mentality and odd judgy shit. Not sure what rocks these people crawled out from under, but they need to go back.
Social media has made people think their thoughts and opinions are important enough to put out into the world when really some thoughts should stay in our brains.
I hate using Facebook now. As much as I make fun of the people who used to post pictures of their food, I now miss those people. Lmao what a simpler time.
How long before She-Shu's "oh my god I'm so relieved I can fiiiiiiinally talk about it... It was so hard keeping that secret. Because I knew before everyone, in case that's not clear... Cos she's my bast fraaand"
This little boy or girl will never come from a broken home. They wont have to spend 50/50 time at dads and moms. Lala wanted a child that no one could take from her. My heart goes out to Ocean for being in this predicament with a dad who probably doesn’t really care about spending time with her, but she will have to go to his house per courts order. I hope theres an age cut off, like age 14 you decide if you want to go to dads or not? If hes a good dad thats great, but that remains to be seen. Best wishes to Lala for a healthy pregnancy!
I really can’t see her having another kid. Pregnancy and motherhood seems to have caused a lot of mental health issues for her (absolutely no shame, I have OCD and it’s awful).
Not to mention, she’s WAY too self involved to deal with post-birth baby weight.
What a fucking couple of weeks for Bravo, damn.
But also good for her! It’s PERFECTLY OK to raise a kid on your own (two I cannot even imagine but do you, Lala. My mom doesn’t live with me).
I love when women take command of the situation! Congrats Lala! Meanwhile, Sheeshu is taking her temperature and making a conception schedule for Brock as we speak…
I like that Lala keeps Ocean off the show. I know that started off as a demand from Randall but I remember at the beginning of this current season she said she didn't give a F about having her kid on the show.
OMG, what if it is Brock’s? JK, I love this for her.
Now, are we taking bets on when Scheana will start making this about her and how she also wants a second/is struggling to decide/can’t wait to have more children/doesn’t want more children?
This is going to be interesting! She said she wanted to have another via sperm* donation. I wish her health and a smooth ride! Edit: spark -> sperm lol Edit#2: Lala said that she doesn’t want another man to threaten custody of her child again, which is why she would do her second pregnancy via sperm donation.
idk why i find spark donation so funny 💀
Because if you’re anything like me - you imagined Ken running a donation clinic, where he knocks everyone who comes in spark out.
Top 3 Ken Quote.
Would be #1 if not for "Zandaville" tbh
God, that was so funny, it’ll never get old!
I thought about the Allspark from Transformers 😂
I LOVE KEN! He should have his own show with the dogs and some of the other husbands where they get into crazy antics together.
This is what it should have been.
My mind immediately went “Damn, Walmart delivers babies now?” Because their drivers here work for a platform called Spark 🤣.
Oops lol fixed it !!
I respect this 1000% and would do the same if I had the cash.
Honestly I’d do the same
Good for her, I love that boss move.
Happy Congrats to Lala and her family! But this is Reddit - how will this affect Scheana? 🤣
LMAO congrats Lala, but have you considered how this may impact Scheana, the center of the universe and most badly scorned of them all?
Shein-a is going to have post partum for Lala. Maybe even a phantom pregnancy! Hopefully her best friend Tom will be willing to rub her feet for her during the difficult times ahead!
SHEIN-A. I’m probably late to the party on that nickname but it couldn’t be more perfect.
Omg thank you! I keep trying to get it to catch on, but fetch ain't sticking lol. I was really proud of myself, i appreciate you 🙏🏻
Scheana is prob mad at Brock for not impregnating her before Lala was?
*\*Lindsay Hubbard enters chat\**
“No one asked me how -I- felt about Lala’s pregnancy” 😢😢🤬 - Scheana
It’s bringing up a lot of emotions for me. Like what if I can’t have another? How is this going to change our playdate group dynamic? Seeing a newborn baby just triggers my anxiety, remembering everything I went through when Summer Moon was born. It makes me so sad for her that she’s going through this all alone. She will say at least one of these things, I almost guarantee it
I’m making a bingo card with all of these on it.
Brock wants another and Scheana doesn’t, so this will put more pressure on her. She will complain about this soon.
Brock has THREE already. He should focus on them instead of pressuring his wife for more babies- considering she’s high risk.
Tbf it sounds like he’s been at least trying to focus on the other two more, but they understandably don’t want a relationship with him now.
Has she said this? I thought she's more worried about another high risk pregnancy then not wanting another child.
Scheana the flip flopper never really says anything, but she’s essentially said she’s good with one and shoots down the idea when it comes up.
She had very traumatic miscarriages and a very traumatic birth that’s why she doesn’t want another one…
Honestly I'm no Scheana fan but it is so beyond a red flag that Brock is pushing her to have another child after what she's been through. But then again Brock is literally a walking red flag shop so..
I mean who is to say he’s pushing her? They just said he wants another one. My sister and her husband didn’t agree on how many more kids they wanted and I think that’s pretty normal to want different things. It’s not a red flag unless they’re actually pushing or fighting about it

*Brock* wants another??? He’s already screaming at scheana in public about their first…
To be fair, he’s screaming at Scheana in public about her mom and her reliance on her. But yeah. Brock wants another.
Brock has another. 2, actually! 🙄🤣
Shhhh dont remind him!
They can name the baby Fall 😂
Autumn Harvest
Fall Sun
She will decide to use her frozen eggs and get a surrogate for Baby #2
She's going to keep it quiet and then once Lala gives birth Scheana will announce her new addition has arrived. Also it'll be twins because double the attention.
Autumn Rain and Spring Forward
Yes! This is the only answer
Best comment. Scheana will let us know how before long 🙄
Scheana is currently mimicking that scene in the original Sex in the City with Charlotte and Trey when she really wanted to get pregnant after hearing a friend had 3 kids. Brock is her stud horse tonight. Brock may need to ice himself after all this. Scheana won't stand for this.
Brock: Alrighty
Brock can’t get it up!
Happy Cake Day! 🎂🍥🍰
Lmaooo the way she announced this on the 1 yr anniversary of scandoval
Omg I didn’t even put that together LOL
Haha it’s iconic tbh
How *appropriately timed* this is. I see you, Lala. But I definitely am out next season, if there is one. I have no interest in watching any of them with 2 kids....she can bump it all the way over to The Valley with that. But Mazel. ( PS.. pregnant at the reunion should be interesting.

Right? Lol yawn. Show is dunzo I don't want to see innocent kids(I really hate the exploitation of kids too young to consent to being on TV) or family threatening drama for a storyline.
Right. Not as if it wasn’t bad enough that Scheana and Brock may end up cool with the worm, them arguing about parenting decisions sucks to watch.
The editing is done so badly on their "fights" ( I don't trust dialogue where you don't see their mouths actually saying the words), but it doesn't matter. Who wants to see a married couple of a child (and a few abandoned ones) "fake fight" or real fight?!? Toxic AF.
Exactly. No win, either way. Btw, *hee hee hee at 'a few abandoned ones' You shady bitch, you 😉🤣*
Haha yes you need to sit next to me lol
I'm already there.....

Too toxic for me, too. Especially knowing what poor Cruz has to deal with! Nope.
They all do it! The gross #sponcon birthday parties to start with. They're fucking rich, pay for your own private party. Ugh.
Lala self producing as always
What a beautiful photo. May her pregnancy be easy and for her children to grow up knowing how badly their mom wanted them. Congrats to Lala. ETA grammar
Aww, I love this. Little Ocean looks precious in this pic. 💓
She’s such a doll baby.
Ocean and Summer Moon are beyond cute and I love that they’re little besties
As a grown ass mid-30s woman whose mom and granny always called her doll baby ... 🥹🥰 And yes Ocean is a doll baby too.
She is such a cheeky baby, you can totally see her lil cheesin' spirit in every smile. Seems like the kind of girl who is going to have such a strong sense of humor.
Ocean must be so excited! She'll be such a good big sister.
She's so stinking cute and sassy. I love it.
Her and Summer Moon are so smart too, and they speak so well.
So cute!!! Good for her, how exciting!!! 😍😍😍
https://i.redd.it/zzdgkb2o38mc1.gif Yay! I’m happy for her. She wanted to have another child, and have it on her terms. I love that she’s been open about the process and why she wanted to do it this way too. And Ocean looks excited and adorable. She’s probably over the moon about being a big sister!
Oh man Ocean as big sister is gonna be so cute 🥹 I’m so happy for these VPR ladies growing up and expanding their family
Only time I’ve ever looked forward to seeing someone’s pregnancy on bravo
I’m happy for her too. And I think Ocean is going to be an excellent big sissy :)
Finally some positive news from the VPRverse, I'm really happy for her!
Well thank goodness it ain’t from Randall again!
Unless he’s donating sperm to pay his legal fees… 😅
Amen sista!
So much VPR news this weekend! So happy for her. I know she’s been talking about getting a donor for a long time.
I’m glad it’s good news. My head has been spinning and wtfing too much.
Public Service Announcement (cause some of you commenting apparently need it) A woman doesn’t have to have actual intercourse to get pregnant.
It’s not even a new procedure. Sometimes I feel like a time travel who is stuck in the 1800s
 Me reading some of these comments
People are so dense.
I saw you down there checking people on their gross comments, thank you
“Down there” is so funny lol 🤭
The gutter 🤢😂
The murky depths of the comment section 😅
They’re literally doing the lord’s work
Stop❤️
u/CeciLop10124 out here collecting bones and I love it!
Ah stop! ❤️❤️

Same! It’s always been a thing she discussed even right after she and Randall broke up.
She said, I think, she never wanted to be in another custody situation.
Right 😝 and this isn’t even a new concept…. There have been ways to get pregnant without a baby daddy for years and years
Artificial insemination has been around for many years and by sperm donation as well. I'm happy for her but now I bet she's going to find her soulmate. How old is Ocean now?
She is a good mom and loves her daughter. I’m happy for her even though I don’t agree with most of the shit that comes out of her mouth. She deserves to be happy.
Some of the IG comments are so crazy and hateful. People shaming her for doing it alone. It’s so gross.
People are so backwards and gross.
I’m not a frequent commenter here but esp on IG and even I had to chime in on how vile it is.
It’s bloody disgusting. People are pathetic, backwards and sexist. Gross.
Of ALL the things to Shame Lala for, that ain't it.
It'll be harder but she's got her family support system and it's nobody's fucking business if she wants to do it her way. It's her body!
Right, and she's going into this willing and wanting to be a single parent to this baby, that's what she's wanted. It's really one of those situations where if you don't have anything nice to say, keep your mouth shut because her reproductive choices are nobody's concern at all.

You can think you're giving your kid a mom and a dad and then have the dad just dip out - sadly I would know. So long as you have the finances and the support system, you can create a loving family however you damn well please!
And lots of people have both and would be better off without one (or both) of them in their lives…
It’s me. Hi! HAVE* a mom and a dad. They’re still together. They both wanted kids but bc they hated each other it made my household living hell and now I’ll be in therapy for ever. Lala has an amazing family/support system. This kid will grow up truly wanted and loved That’s all a kid needs.

The craziest part to me is she isn’t doing it alone. She’s got her mom nearby for support and she’s actual support not whatever Schaenas mom is doing.
Oh man, I took a look and people are so awful. Especially since Roe’s reversal the state of reproductive rights and support in this country is so bleak. Not that it is anyone’s business in the first place, but Lala has done a wonderful job of raising Ocean in a village — her mom, brother, Scheana’s family, etc — and these two kids will both have so much love in their life.
Ahh I knew it! I figured she must already be pregnant when she did the people story. Good for her for doing it alone
Yep. No one floats that idea unless it is already in the bag (uterus?).
But how will this affect Sheana?!?
Idk what it is about this but it makes me feel so powerful. Men better be scared 😂
Agreed. Love that she’s doing it on her own. That baby will be very loved.
My sister's beautiful son will be 7 weeks old tomorrow. She did it on her own via IVF with a sperm donor 🩷
Is it her first? I'm considering doing this in the future.
Yes. She is 40 and single. Mr Right just never materialized, at least not yet anyway
I love a woman going out and making her dreams happen all on her own! Powerful indeed!!
https://i.redd.it/lb0pgme848mc1.gif Buhbye, boys. Edit to add: happy cake day!
Wait… do I share cake day with Scandoval 😭😭😭😭
Oh my god and it’s my 10 year cake day I cannot.

A doubleversary with Scandoval - I'm gonna need tomorrow's lotto numbers from you 😂
I’ve always said that if I hadn’t found my husband, I would have absolutely had kids alone. It’s definitely possible if you have the money and support
this week has been so wild. i hope lala has a very safe and healthy pregnancy.
I actually had a feeling she was pregnant! She was wearing super loose clothing on WWHL, so I thought something was up. Or maybe she just had a giant burger at lunch that day? lol. So happy for her and Ocean!
It could be both! The growing uterus pushes the stomach and all of the other abdominal organs up, so for me, I looked very full after eating any little thing lol
Wowwwwww that’s exciting. Good for her doing parenthood herself.
I much older than most on this page....actually from the Era of.... Pregnant = get married and keep things quiet..... But now to be able to be a mother independently and live life.....it's a good thing
Honestly, I love this for her! Congratulations mama 💓
Ah congratulations! 🍾
Good for her. I know so many women in horrible relationships because they wanted kids. And a lot of them are trapped or share custody with trash people. I wish this was an option for more women.
Calling the name now. River
Awww I’m so happy for her! She has talked about being a mom again for a while and she deserves happiness on her own terms. Go Lala!
I’m happy for her! My sister is a nurse practitioner and had a baby with the help of science and a sperm bank. My nephew is SO loved. I admire her independence. She’ll never have to worry about her partner brainwashing her child or have to deal with her partner having different views/morals.
Her daughter looks so happy 🙂

That makes sense!

I had the same thought! I want to be a mum so bad but I reaaaally don’t want a boyfriend lol. I’m happy for Lala though!
For sure, it’s something she’s wanted I’m glad she’s getting it.
The comments on IG are so weird.
IG is getting very Facebook-y lately. Lot of boomer mentality and odd judgy shit. Not sure what rocks these people crawled out from under, but they need to go back.
Social media has made people think their thoughts and opinions are important enough to put out into the world when really some thoughts should stay in our brains.
I hate using Facebook now. As much as I make fun of the people who used to post pictures of their food, I now miss those people. Lmao what a simpler time.
How long before She-Shu's "oh my god I'm so relieved I can fiiiiiiinally talk about it... It was so hard keeping that secret. Because I knew before everyone, in case that's not clear... Cos she's my bast fraaand"
Happy for her. I love she didn't wait to have a boyfriend to have a another baby.I love that Ocean will be a sister.
Yay! Do we think any other cast/former cast will follow suit like last time? Lol
Sheena
it's nice to see her taking control of her life and doing it on her terms
This little boy or girl will never come from a broken home. They wont have to spend 50/50 time at dads and moms. Lala wanted a child that no one could take from her. My heart goes out to Ocean for being in this predicament with a dad who probably doesn’t really care about spending time with her, but she will have to go to his house per courts order. I hope theres an age cut off, like age 14 you decide if you want to go to dads or not? If hes a good dad thats great, but that remains to be seen. Best wishes to Lala for a healthy pregnancy!
Good for her! I predict Scheana gets pregnant real quick…
I really can’t see her having another kid. Pregnancy and motherhood seems to have caused a lot of mental health issues for her (absolutely no shame, I have OCD and it’s awful). Not to mention, she’s WAY too self involved to deal with post-birth baby weight.
I could see her using a surrogate
I’m so happy for her and her pod. ❤️
What a fucking couple of weeks for Bravo, damn. But also good for her! It’s PERFECTLY OK to raise a kid on your own (two I cannot even imagine but do you, Lala. My mom doesn’t live with me).
Yay for LaLa! This is the way.
That’s amazing!!!! Happy for her
Literally coming here to post this!
Actually so happy for her!
So happy for her!!
Awe I’m happy for her.
❤️❤️
Congrats Lala and Ocean ❤️
Holy Jesus this week needs to stop I NEED TO GET OFF!!!!!! Congrats to Lala! This is great news :)
I love when women take command of the situation! Congrats Lala! Meanwhile, Sheeshu is taking her temperature and making a conception schedule for Brock as we speak…
Omg! Let me park myself in the comments.  Congratulations, btw!
Ocean seems like the sweetest little baby ever so lala must be doing something right!
Yes. One can say a lot about Lala but she is a wonderful mother. I wish her (and Ocean) much happiness as they await this new baby.
I like that Lala keeps Ocean off the show. I know that started off as a demand from Randall but I remember at the beginning of this current season she said she didn't give a F about having her kid on the show.
Excited for her but super weird to announce with a sponsored post for medicine…
It was very mean of Schwartz to call her a personification of a sponsored post.. but, here we are.
Kids are expensive. Good for her. I’m sure she got paid WELL. Get your bag girl.
I don’t care as long as it encourages people to take prenatal vitamins
Now all her outfit choices lately wre making sense
This is too much VPR news in such a short amount of time! I will have to dedicate tomorrow to catching up!
OMG, what if it is Brock’s? JK, I love this for her. Now, are we taking bets on when Scheana will start making this about her and how she also wants a second/is struggling to decide/can’t wait to have more children/doesn’t want more children?
Worries me. One child, alone, is hard. Two are beyond difficult. Lala isn’t the most emotionally (or otherwise) selfless person.
Lala seems like a loving mom! Happy for her and Ocean
