Lala Kent Speculates About Daniel Wai's Intentions in 'Vanderpump Rules' Sneak Peek

Lala Kent has reservations about her Vanderpump Rules co-star Ariana Madix moving on so quickly with Daniel Wai after her split from Tom Sandoval. In a preview clip of season 11, the 33-year-old Lala discusses Ariana's love life with her mother, Lisa Burningham.

Lala expressed her surprise at Ariana's new relationship, questioning the motives of her new man, Daniel. Lisa noted that her daughter seems to be more aware of things now, especially after her own past relationship challenges and the fallout from Scandoval. Lala recently parted ways with her ex-fiancé Randall Emmett due to alleged infidelity, which he denied. Tom Sandoval and Ariana ended their relationship in March following his secret affair with co-star Raquel Leviss.

Lala tearfully confesses in the video that she now questions the motivations of "everybody." Lisa then comforts her daughter, saying, "It's okay, you're going to work through it, all in steps. I love you."

Ariana first hinted at her relationship with Daniel, a personal trainer based in New York, in April when they were seen kissing at Coachella.

Ariana is enjoying her time with Daniel. She never expected to begin a new relationship so quickly after things ended with Tom and Raquel, but a source told We in June that Daniel treats her with "respect and compassion."

Since they began dating, Daniel has been her biggest supporter and has often watched her compete on Dancing With the Stars. (Ariana and pro partner Pasha Pashkov finished in third place during the finale earlier this month.)

Ariana shared with Us in her October cover story that her personal trainer boyfriend is amazing and extremely supportive. She mentioned that he goes out of his way to help her with anything she needs, even sacrificing his own sleep and time. He then takes a red-eye back and goes straight to work. Ariana also noted that he takes care of things around the house and does little things that she doesn't even think about, like cleaning up and preparing food for her. She expressed gratitude for his thoughtfulness and support.
