Lala Kent’s Assistant Jessica Walter Throws Major Shade After Abrupt Podcast Exit!
Lala Kent recently made waves on her podcast Give Them Lala by announcing that her longtime assistant and close friend, Jessica Walter, would be leaving both her team and the podcast.
The news came as a surprise to fans, and Jessica herself seemed less than thrilled with how the announcement was handled.
On the November 6 episode, Lala kept it brief but heartfelt. “My ride or die Jessica is no longer going to be working for me, and she will no longer be on the podcast,” Lala shared. “My relief is that she is going to go spread her wings and fly. And we wish her all the best, and I love her more than anything. I’m so excited to see what she’s going to do in her future.”
The announcement, however, was tucked away at the end of the episode, leaving fans speculating over the unexpected farewell.
Following the episode, Jessica posted a cryptic Instagram photo of herself with the caption, “One foot in front of the other y’all.”
Comments flooded her post, with fans expressing both support and curiosity. “How come you left the podcast like that, did you get fired?” one commenter wrote, while another suggested, “Idk if this was even mutual because you seem so happy to go.”
Jessica’s reaction only added to the intrigue. She liked a comment that read, “This was handled so poorly. Not your fault, but we listen to a pod with the three of you on the reg and have no answers. No send-off or anything.” However, that like was later removed, leaving fans even more puzzled.
While Jessica has stayed relatively quiet on the specifics, fans are left wondering if they’ll ever know the full story.
“We had a whole thing about your breakup, but we get a 2-second blurb about you leaving?” one follower questioned, pointing to Lala’s typically open-book approach to her life and relationships.
As speculation builds, fans are hoping for more insight into the reasons behind Jessica’s sudden departure.
Until then, old seasons of Vanderpump Rules continues to stream on Peacock.
