Kate Chastain from Below Deck is hoping for a romantic connection between Captain Jason Chambers and Lala Kent following their flirtatious weekend at BravoCon. 33-year-old Lala, a star of Vanderpump Rules, celebrated the conclusion of BravoCon by posting a photo on social media with 50-year-old Jason. The caption for the snapshot, taken on Sunday, November 5, showed Lala placing her hand on Jason's chest while he held onto her waist.
Kate, 40, expressed her admiration for the Bravo stars by commenting, "POWER COUPLE." On the other hand, Brynn Whitfield from 'The Real Housewives of New York City' couldn't help but express her envy, commenting, "I'm peanut butter and jealous," under the photo.
Jason proved to be a highly sought-after individual at BravoCon, an event that took place in Las Vegas over the weekend. "Given that I am a bachelor and a member of Bravo, I fully intend to embrace and enjoy the experience," he playfully hinted during an exclusive conversation with We on Saturday, November 4. He then divulged a list of Bravo women he had the pleasure of meeting during the convention. "I had a delightful conversation with Lala. Olivia Flowers was also in attendance, and we had a chance to connect."
The captain's Below Deck co-star, Aesha Scott, mentioned that she played a role in bringing Lala and Jason together during the event. Aesha, 31, stated on Saturday that she promptly distanced herself from the situation. "I am often the one who initiates introductions for Jason. I enjoy introducing him to as many people as possible," she said.
Aesha disclosed that she was supportive of Lala because she found the idea a bit intriguing, and Jason responded by saying, "Intriguing is great!"
Jason mentioned that he had an "ideal" conversation with Lala and discovered that they share many similarities. Furthermore, there was evident chemistry between them, subtly alluded to during their joint appearance at the "Battle of the Sexes" panel later that day.
In the course of the presentation, accusations were made against Lala, alleging that she had been in her co-star Tom Sandoval's suite on the first night of BravoCon, which was held on Friday, November 3. Although Jason Kennedy stated that he had read about this incident somewhere, Lala firmly denied ever being in Sandoval's room.
Last night at 11 o'clock, Jason mentioned that he bid me goodnight while we were in the elevator," Jason stated from his position on the opposite side of the stage. Lala smiled and confirmed joyfully, "I was actually in the elevator with this attractive man!" as she pointed towards Jason.
The captain, recognized as one of We's Top 10 Reality Stars of 2023, further explained that he bid Lala goodnight before proceeding to his room, which elicited a roar of excitement from the audience.
While Lala and Jason seemed to have a connection, Brynn expressed her willingness to pursue a romantic relationship with the Below Deck star. "He's extremely attractive, so I'll send him a direct message," teased Brynn, who is 36 years old. "I'll play the role of a distressed damsel by saying, 'I can't swim. Can you help me?' Men are often drawn to women in need."
Brynn and Lala may face additional competition for Jason's affections, as Caroline Brooks from The Real Housewives of Dubai revealed that she had a romantic moment with him at the convention.
Caroline, 34, revealed to E! News on Friday that she found herself in a bit of trouble the previous night. She admitted, "I was kissed. It seems like luck was on my side." She explained that the other person had initiated the flirting, and she responded in kind. "I took a chance and went for a slightly more daring move, and then he surprised me by going even further," she shared. "In that moment, I jokingly welcomed him to Las Vegas and kept it light with just a quick peck, no tongue involved."
