Scheana Shay is weighing in on those rumors currently circulating that Lala Kent and Tom Schwartz are dating.
On July 4, the Vanderpump Rules alum expressed her own opinion (as she always does) on her Scheananigans podcast. “I can tell you this,” she said. “If they’re secretly dating, they’re secretly dating from me, because I have heard this only online. So as far as I know, there is no truth to this.”
Although Scheana is usually the one with all the tea, in this case, she’s got nothing to spill. “But, I mean, if it’s a secret, I guess it’s a secret,” she joked. “We know Schwartz can keep a secret. I’m just kidding.” Ouch! Was that a Scandoval reference? Too soon?

A moment later, Scheana admitted, “No, I don’t think there is any truth to that.”
On July 1, Lala was also a guest on Tom’s Detox Retox podcast. While she was there, Lala and Schwartz addressed the dating rumors. Both of them were baffled about the origination of the rumors, admitting they had “no idea” how it started. While they admitted that they’re close friends, that’s all they are.
Tom quipped, “If it’s on the internet, it’s true, right?”
However, it’s not like Lala’s never considered the possibility. On the June 23 episode of her Give Them Lala podcast, Lala confessed that she had thought about having a relationship with Tom.
“Can I tell you, Schwartzy? We got this so much on [VPR] Season 11,” she said. “And I didn’t realize it because I avoid the comment section. But … every time I went on a podcast or anything like that, people always said that … We talked about it. I feel like I would be way too high-strung and intense for you.”
For her part, even though they no longer film Pump Rules together, Scheana is still very close to both Tom and Lala. Scheana says she talks and texts with Tom all the time. “I literally FaceTimed with Schwartz yesterday,” she shared.
Additionally, Scheana’s daughter Summer is fast friends with Lala’s daughter Ocean, and they’re often together. Ocean was at Summer’s house twice just last week.
“The girls were swimming together,” Scheana recalled. “Those kids are inseparable when they’re together. They fight like sisters, they love like sisters.”
All episodes of Vanderpump Rules are streaming on Hulu in the US and on Hayu in the UK and Ireland.
