Kristen Doute is revealing whether her former SUR Restaurant boss, Lisa Vanderpump, reached out to her after she and her fiancé, Luke Broderick, welcomed their baby girl, Kaia Lily, last month.
While also offering an update on her feud with Vanderpump Rules alum Lala Kent, 34, sharing where she stands with Ariana Madix, 40, and revealing which of her co-stars on The Valley were the most supportive amid her pregnancy, Kristen, 42, shaded Jax Taylor, 45, named her emergency contact, and explained where she stands with Lisa, 64.
“What do you think? No, and it will undeniably stay that way,” Kristen told Us Weekly after being asked if Lisa had been in touch.
Luckily, she had a more positive update when questioned about Lala.
“With Lala, it has been kind of public that we made up in a way. She landed a really gracious apology, which I appreciate. We have not talked everything through yet. We definitely still have some things to do, but she’s been very understanding,” Kristen explained. “I was pregnant but she’s been really helpful. She lent me a night nurse. She’s talked me through things and she’s been someone that’s been really great to text.”
Kristen has also been in touch, via text, with Ariana, and she applauded Nia Booko, 35, and Danny Booko, 41, for their overwhelming support.
“Nia [Booko] has helped me through my fertility journey and through my entire pregnancy. We’re sending voice memos to each other every single day. She’s literally in the same exact position I’m in right now but she’s just done this before,” Kristen shared. “Her and Danny are just both right there to give us any advice that we need and they’re always on call.”
“We have a group text with Nia, Danny, Luke and me, and even if I’m texting Nia one-on-one, she’ll reel it back to the four of us and she’s like, ‘Daniel really wants to be involved,’” she added. “It’s just really great to have the two of them.”
As for Jesse Lally, 45, and Brittany Cartwright, 36, they’ve been helpful as well, with Jesse giving “a lot of really amazing advice as a girl dad to Luke and just constantly checking in on us and seeing if we need anything.”
“Jesse’s been fantastic,” Kristen admitted.
Still, it was Brittany who she named as her emergency contact.
“We were in our pediatrician’s office and Brittany is our emergency contact in California. I told her that actually. I was like, ‘So I didn’t ask you ahead of time, but you’re Kaia’s emergency contact.’ She loves it.”
“[Brittany’s] been over a couple of times, but she’s so excited about it. She knew the gender of our baby before we did, so it only makes perfect sense. She lives right down the street from us. I’m over there all the time,” she continued.
Also speaking to Us Weekly, after revealing that Zack Wickham, 36, took care of her and Luke’s home during their stay at the hospital, Kristen confirmed she would never let Jax babysit her baby girl.
“I wouldn’t let Jax babysit Luke’s gecko — who requires no work whatsoever,” she stated. “Absolutely not. I wouldn’t let Jax babysit my Yeti. Like, no.”
The Valley season two airs Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
