Be a fucking friend and just stay by her side….people grieve how she wants

[@mandygish6405]

She truely would have had it made if she choose K and A. That was the golden ticket, bad ass season.. Now she isn't even worthy of scheana 😂 Have fun with S and S

[@user-vk2rw3hw2h]

Absolutely! xox

[@misharleen]

Bring Randall and let’s see how peaceful she’ll be

[@tazzibear86]

Just because Lala doesn't understand Arianas grieving journey doesn't mean it's wrong. I found my husband within 5 days of leaving my ex. Was i grieving still?Yes. Was I angry at the thought of him? Yes. My now husband understood that but I was also good at not bringing that into my new relationship. Because some people can compartmentalize. Lala fixates on things and that's why she doesn't get it.

[@user-vm5hc1jc6s]

I can totally relate! I found the love of my life 3 months after my abusive husband passed away. I happy you found your forever too!

[@court9893]

My sister and I just lost our dad the last day of July. I was always a huge Lala fan and this is what ruined it for good. I hope she gets help.

[@maryjanedodo]

The fact she's been like this since she filmed nearly a year ago is concerning - she's going to have a rough time post partum with that mindset

[@shirleycarroll1698]

Lala has never been kind

[@arilyons6587]

Ariana did check Tom multiple times lol we saw her literally say “ I’m walking away Tom because I’m not doing the Tom against the girls” and according to Tom, all she did was disagree with him. Can’t have it both ways was she is biggest supporter or was she his harshest critic?

[@shannonleavitt]

What is Lala talking about Ariana never speaking up about Tom's misogyny? I can think of two instances off thr top of my head....1 last season when she walked out of the room and said she couldn't stand there and watch "Tom against the women" and another time when Tom was being a douche, and Ariana said he eas being #mensrights

[@nicolemay4427]

Cause Tom has always acted like a douche and Ariana was his main defender, remember when Tom went off on Stassi for literally no reason and Ariana defended him, now Tom can’t do anything right, he breathes and Ariana has a problem with it

[@jewlstorres8600]

Here where Ariana stood up for her - she’s conveniently forgot kzbin.info/www/bejne/l2mmeoV3iq6ZrNUsi=s57AMybMlFl4mPoX

[@hunterandolive2693]

And how about when she was defending Brittani against Jax's cheating when Tom wanted her to stay out of it? She called him obtuse and a fkn dick and slammed the door leaving. Come tf on. One thing about Ariana is that she has consistently taken the fair side of every situation.

[@alarwings8378]

Can’t stand Jessica, she contributes nothing to the show except for being sycophantic and agrees with everything Lala says. So unbearable.

THIS

[@angelastathopulos58]

Right? It’s so weird!!! She defends Scheana for having feelings about missing Tom, and jumps all over Katie for “not understanding” that, but doesn’t have enough understanding or respect for Ariana to let her work through her feelings the way she needs to?

[@WhoCaresMoreThanMe]

I am with Lala on this. Ariana has not been attracted to Tom for years. She had developed this character of Tom's gf. She has always felt cold towards him imo. She acted devastated because he blew up their characters on the show

[@user-vk2rw3hw2h]

Bingo.

[@oneday455]

@@WhoCaresMoreThanMe I agree. Ariana was not main player. She suffered with depression. She didn't want to get married. She didn't want to have kids to begin with. Tom was always extra. He wanted to get married and he always wanted kids. It seemed like a couples storyline and he was breaking it off with Kristen. I didn't get the BIG surprise that he was cheating. Ariana may have changed now with all the attention. She is having a lot of new experiences that might change her emotional journey, but going off into the sunset with Tom, no, I never saw that.

[@AlinaSween]

How does Lala not understand that she has had YEARS to come to terms with Rand. Ariana had 3 months. Girl come on, give her time and grace.

[@bydivadream]

for the record, it's been a little over 2 years since Lala's breakup but Lala isn't actually processing the death of her relationship, it's the extremely scary factors around Randall and everyone he has employed or interacted with

[@murr7999]

There's so much I want to say but I'm just so disappointed in la la's commentary.

[@lemood6061]

Last time listening to lala’s podcast. Jessica and her brother basically just agree to everything she says and validate her views. On everything. Her commentary on ariana, katie, sandoval and hypocrisy has been insufferable.

[@Mlauren3]

Agreed! I loved Lala but her head is way too far up her ass and even she is not jealous she is definitely coming off that way. There is no healthy debate whatsoever on this podcast. Her brother and Jessica seem to just agree on everything to get the show over with. I’ve been feeling very bored with the pod the last 3 weeks. This was my last listen.

[@itelluwut4535]

Jessica is a “yes man”. Brown nose.

[@isleofahh]

The sidekick is such a yesman. It is so so annoying between her voice and the boot licking but have to put up with her for lala

[@kurtsims]

she gave bj's to Randall just to get things and she demanded nobody even play pickleball with him, many months later, and she's telling Arianna that she's wrong to not want to be around Tom 3 months after the end of a 9 year relationship. LieLie is patheitc.

[@chelsearaquel589]

completely agree! I rode hard for lala but I had to unsubscribe, unfollow. Insufferable is the perfect word, I can't even stomach her anymore

[@K8_918]

Ariana must have really put Lauren from Utah in her place at the reunion. 😂 the jealousy is so obvious and if she already is telling her team she doesn’t want to know what the comments are on social media then she really can’t handle the truth.

[@jewlstorres8600]

Lala is a hypocrite kzbin.info/www/bejne/l2mmeoV3iq6ZrNUsi=s57AMybMlFl4mPoX

[@catherinecalvert7742]

Arisna told Tom last year she wasnt going to stand by why he argued with the girls Over Svheana and Katie Youre just hating no one could ask you anything about Randell when you were with him You didnt want to James to question your relationship and HE WAS RIGHT JAMES EFFIN KENNEDY saw through Randell

[@user-fq8rs7rz3i]

Bingo on all counts.

[@MJreviews777]

Haha that's funny, another scandoval season 10 and 11 watcher only. Maybe go back and actually watch the seasons 1 thru 9 and then comment.

[@MJreviews777]

Wrong. Ariana always let tom hate on the other girls Katie included before the scandoval seasons. All you newbies from after scandoval are so dull

[@mandygish6405]

Which is even so weird why lala would wanna be friends with this dude again? He is known to scream at women.... It's his favorite pastime. And she would prefer his company over Ariana . Truly Lala and Sandoval are twin flames. Straight man apparently aren't getting enough support these days so go for it La ! My prediction is she chose the wrong side and will pay for it dearly. How can someone become so dislikable so quickly? She is truly earned her demise by doing the absolute most

[@shishimii]

exactly, i would like to see how zen lala would be if the roles were reversed and they filmed a scene of ariana going to a screaming yoga session with randall post his infidelity. lala is the most hypocritical person on the planet. to actively befriend sandoval after all this and then being annoyed at ARIANA for it. lala would have combusted if ariana started playing pickleball with randall 😂 we’d never hear the end of it. it’s the fact that lala feels a type of way about the fame this has brought ariana, she don’t like that, so this whole season is her way of tearing her down

[@joking2512]

Wow Lala, you really are a sellout. Glad Heather was here to check you.

[@user-vk2rw3hw2h]

Totally agree. Seriously. THANK YOU, HEATHER! I love that Heather was able to be so real, to support both of her friends, to see both sides, to not allow Lala's unwarranted jealousy go unchecked. Cooler heads def prevailed in this podcast. Good job, Heather. La, take a seat, breathe, regroup and call Ariana. She deserves an apology.

[@Gabiieaohco]

I love that Lala kept trying to shit on Ariana and heather was actually not just agreeing and had her own views on Ariana’s actions. Unlike her brother and Jessica who just let her rant and shake their head in agreement

[@user-fq8rs7rz3i]

And Lala’s demeanour changed when that happened. 🤣😂😅

[@christinasanchez4278]

How did you get that from this podcast. Lala explains herself very well and has valid points. The fans of this show refuse to see what is actually going on and come up with toxic vile theories or opinion’s that are so biased and at times just plain wrong. Take another listen this girl isn’t coming for Ariana. She is stating facts. Ariana has never come to anyone’s defense and yet she feels entitled to have full loyalty and support. Her first scene “I’m pretty than you I’m smarter than you” she showed us who she is from the get. She has never defended Scheana but instead allowed people to constantly talk shit even to this day in her presence without a single word. She laughed at katie and lala expense when Rachel was telling her about the trip they took. Lala went through a really hard trauma and internal conflict everytime she has to pass her kid to the predator. The response she was given was a smug I told ya so from the Tom and Ariana camp. When Scheana had the rob season not once did Ariana set the record straight or help paint Scheana for the person she really is and she knows it. At the reunion Scheana gets up upset and all alone in that reunion Ariana didn’t consider to comfort her UNTIL lala told her what to do. They way she gas lite kristen to perpetuate this idea that kristen was crazy and ran with it for awhile. She literally had to be told to make the haters stand down when Scheana got destroyed over the picture. When Ariana knows that these fans are so wrong about Scheana anything she does she is knocked down and mocked way more then anyone And she huffed and puffed acted so important to make a post to support her KNOWING Scheana has fully supported her for fucking years. Scheana is the reason she has had so many opportunities. She is ungrateful and showing all of us what the opposite of what humbled looks like. She has gone under the radar and has been the most shady with a side of smug in everything she says. Again from the very beginning the girl has always believed she was better than everyone on this show. Lastly, she goes into business with a woman who hates Scheana. Who has bullied Scheana who is the most critical of Scheana and will never allow Scheana to be the good friend that she is. Katie has always said shady shit about Scheana and hasn’t been quite about it. And what does Ariana do goes into business with that woman instead of the one who got her on the show making the money she makes.

I agree with you about Lala. I'm only watching this episode to see funny Heather McDonald.

[@calliebethlamb]

Losing YOUR dad was the worst thing that ever happened to YOU. Read that slowly. You are hearing words about someone else with a totally different situation and allowing it to affect you as though it was said about you. Lala is referring to the struggles that Ariana has addressed very publicly about her relationship with her father. It was a poor choice of words without recapping the context, but Lala is not insinuating that Ariana is a bad person that didn’t love her father, she’s just including the variables that are completely different in their two situations. If you’re going to take the time to comment about someone’s character, take the time to get to know the full story first.

Lala why not come for Tom for not moving out it’s Ariana’s house just as much as it’s his?! As for Ariana getting a new boyfriend quickly, Tom was dating Rachel while still with Ariana! Ariana and Dan were doing long distance and didn’t regularly see each other. I think that’s her easing into a new relationship plus if it was you you’d be telling everyone to mind their own business and stay out of yours. But since you’ve made your business all about Ariana, literally; you can’t stay out of it I guess💰💰💰

[@lorir5728]

I know! Its arianas house also. 99% of ownership is possession. Leaving the house before things are settled legally is the smart thing to do. Talk about supporting women. It was just as much arianas house. There's a lot of stuff lala doesn't know but acts like she is the authority on it.

So disappointing. So because Ariana didn’t move out of her house, she doesn’t have the right to be furious or use language that you used to describe your breakup? You seem to be giving Sandoval grace but have none for her. Just because you’re on this “journey” of forgiveness and letting go of anger, doesn’t mean Ariana is there yet. I believe you allowed yourself years to be bitter and angry. So hypocritical! Maybe she didn’t want to throw her money away on rent (she was barely home) so she could buy a place. Just because you don’t agree with how she’s handling it certainly doesn’t mean she’s wrong/you’re right.

Does getting a new boyfriend ten days after the breakup diminish Ariana's experience? Putting a timeline on someone else's grieving based on your experience is the opposite of being an empathetic friend.

Saying Ariana never brought anything to the show it is making you come off as salty and jealous because of you and Ari's parallel storylines. When your relationship ended there wasn't much sympathy for you but Ariana got the WORLD!! She got endorsements up the ying yang! She's got DWTS where she slayed and was a finalist. She got Chicago which is breaking records. She's now the new host of Love Island. All those opportunities are well deserved but even I'm a little jelly! Don't ever kick a dog when he's down!

I hate that the girls are dividing again. I think Lala is still deeply resentful of the response to Scandoval vs the response of what Randal did. Idk but I do know I do not like the way she’s moving lately. It bums me out more than anything. It’s not even about her being friends with Tom, but more the comments made and the new stances she’s taking.

[@elleg6456]

Lauren is a monster. The fans are rewriting history? She seems to forget she needs those fans or there is no more "Lala" or VPR. Turning on the fans will be her biggest mistake. The fact that she doesn't want to know what the internet is saying after The Reunion airs says all we need to know.

[@cecilytrowbridge]

I am so disappointed in Lala this season. She had a clear path to success by simply supporting the other women. They could have focused on all the women’s businesses and really lifted each other up. Instead we get this super fake, contrived nonsense and Lala turns against the women. So bad. The best thing Lala could do at this point is reflect and admit that she was experiencing jealousy that Ariana got so much support after her breakup while Lala really didn’t. There’s still a path to redemption here if Lala can do a 180 and the women reunite. The show does not and has not needed these mediocre men for a long time.

[@user-fq8rs7rz3i]

Her break up didn’t get the support because she’d taken u with a married man with kids! And she didn’t give a thought to those kids or his wife. Everyone knows that she knew he was married and not separated. And all her previous talk about bjs for pjs! Ugh.

[@Bravofan-xn3uc]

I don't even want to watch. I have heard too much already on other shows recaps-luckily they are slowly giving you less time because we all are done with you but if you have a chance these are the real questions we wanted asked of Ariana: 1) How is your mental health? You must be struggling since your ex blows up your life and then him and your friends gang up on you. 2) Is there anything you want to say that you didn't have time to say last year at the reunion because LaLa kept loosing her shit and never gave you and Katie a chance to talk? Mind you wasn't that a year and a half after your breakup with Randal and you were still have trouble processes it. But Ariana is supposed to process it in a matter of months. 3) What can we do to help make your living arrangements easier since you actually own part of a house and don't have a sugar daddy paying for your house so you can save up all your money so you have a nest egg when it is time to leave? 4) How hard has it been to finally meet someone who doesn't love the limelight and truly loves you and you don't want to walk away but you are also struggling with all these emotions from being so hurt and then your friends don't think you deserve to be happy? 5) How hard is it to carry the whole show on your back when you really don't even need to be there but you care enough about your friends to try and make it work and they only care about their paychecks so they put you in a bad light every time they possibly can? 6) How is it to have someone, who says she is your friend, not ever let you express your emotions and be angry at your ex? This is the same friend who blew up at Tom with more anger on the boat then you did on the last show but she makes fun of you. This is also a friend who goes off every season and every reunion and then we have to hear her say, poor me, I blacked out, i don't even remember what I said. Everyone still love me I had an awful relationship so I am allowed to do anything I want forever but you Ariana had one month and then you have to be ok. I used to like you LaLa and gave you a lot of Grace but you have now shown your true colors and I just can't do it anymore. I can't even watch old things with you and still have the good feelings I had about you because as Brittany said the veil has been lifted and now I really see who you are and now I can't unsee things. As a mother myself I am just so glad your mother does not watch the show, too bad your father can see everything because he his probably disappointed. I would never have said something about your father but you opened the door when you said something about Ariana and her father.

I get the feeling Lala has all her responses worked out before this podcast. She knows she messed up on the show and is now making excuses for her terrible behaviour. Lala took Sandovals part and tried to shame her former friend. Disgraceful. I know why she didn’t move out and so does Katie, why doesn’t Lala? It’s because she really doesn’t see it from a woman’s point of view. She’s a guys girl, not a girls girl. Lala effed up her life because she went after a married serial cheater.

Because it was such a brutal yet extremely interesting situation to watch, those seasons would have been top rated and Lala would have got the same and more fame and opportunities as Arianna did. I can see why Sandoval called her out for that and continues to do so; especially considering how s10 was going to be their last season due to low interest and very expensive overhead

It was not Ann's responsibility to daily go around her employer's house to check the status of its doors.
