Lala Kent, known for her role in Vanderpump Rules, has announced that she is pregnant with her second child through intrauterine insemination (IUI) just over a month after revealing her plans for the procedure. The 33-year-old shared the news on Instagram with a photo of her daughter Ocean, who is turning 3 this month, and her visible baby bump.
In a recent interview, Kent expressed her gratitude for the option of IUI, stating that while she initially envisioned a traditional family setup, she is embracing the new path that life has presented to her. Following her split from Ocean's father, Randall Emmett, in October 2021, Kent has been open about her desire to expand her family despite not having found a new partner.
Having welcomed her daughter, Kent expressed her intention to have more children, emphasizing that she wanted to savor her time with Ocean before considering another baby. By mid-2022, she confirmed her plans to have more kids and revealed her preference for a sperm donor over multiple co-parents.
Kent shared that she found a donor with whom she felt a connection, describing the moment as feeling like she had found her 'baby daddy.' She highlighted the importance of discussing alternative paths to parenthood for women who may be waiting for the right partner to start a family.
By openly sharing her journey with IUI and single parenthood, Kent aims to support and inspire others who may be in similar situations. Her decision to use a sperm donor reflects her determination to fulfill her desire for more children while embracing a non-traditional route to motherhood.
