Lala Kent playfully hinted at discussing a message she received from Captain Jason during her "Give Them Lala" podcast episode on Wednesday, November 8. She reminded her cohosts Jessica Walter and Easton Burningham not to count their chickens before they hatch.
Lala discussed her encounter with the star of Below Deck Down Under at BravoCon during the weekend. She mentioned that she became aware of this person through the podcast's listeners who sent her a message about him. Additionally, during BravoCon, he was heard mentioning her name. At the Bravos event on Friday, November 3, Andy Cohen brought him down and showcased him with various women, ultimately concluding with Lala.
Jason, on the other hand, expressed his indifference towards the attention. He exclusively informed We on Saturday, November 4th, "As a bachelor, I have no problem with this. Since I am on Bravo, I will gladly embrace and savor it."
In addition, the captain mentioned having a "wonderful conversation" with Lala regarding their experiences as single parents. (Jason has a 7-year-old daughter named Saskia with his former partner Fuchsia Quinn, while Lala shares a 2-year-old daughter named Ocean with her ex-fiancé Randall Emmett.)
Lala shared her thoughts during Wednesday's podcast, expressing, "When he first arrived at the hotel, we had an enjoyable conversation. We discussed our children, and he was incredibly kind."
As BravoCon drew to a close, Lala posted a photo of herself and Jason on her Instagram Story on Sunday, November 5, with the caption, "I never fail to obtain what I desire."

Lala addressed the events that occurred privately on Wednesday, clearing up any misconceptions. "We have not been romantically involved. He is undeniably attractive," she expressed. "The future of this situation is still uncertain."
Lala, a cast member on Vanderpump Rules, remains open to the possibility of meeting again in the future. "He's around 50 years old, and he's incredibly attractive," Lala revealed.
Jason seemed to make connections with several Bravo stars at BravoCon. Caroline Brooks from the Real Housewives of Dubai revealed that after they crossed paths, Jason leaned in for a kiss.
"I got myself into a bit of trouble last night. He kissed me. I suppose I was fortunate," she told E! News on Friday. "He was flirting with me initially, so I flirted back. I went in for a peck on both cheeks, and then he went straight for the lips. And I said, 'Hello! Hi! Welcome to Las Vegas.' There was no tongue, just a quick kiss."
Meanwhile, Brynn Whitfield, a star of The Real Housewives of New York City, subtly mentioned her intention to connect with Jason in the future.
"[Andy Cohen introduced us at the Bravos event.] He did. I playfully said, 'Hello sailor or Captain.' He's attractive, so I'll reach out to him privately," Brynn, aged 36, disclosed to Us on Saturday. "I will jokingly ask for assistance by saying, 'I can't swim. Can you help me?' Men are often drawn to a woman in need of rescue."
