Although James Kennedy cannot confirm whether or not Lala Kent and Randall Emmett are still together, he says the timing of these rumors are pretty suspect.
During an appearance on "Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen" on Tuesday October 19, the "Vanderpump Rules" star told Andy Cohen that although he works to maintain his relationship with the couple, he was out of the loop when it came to their business.
"Well, look, Randall and I have come a long way and obviously my loyalty stands with Lala, no matter what," Kennedy, 29, said. "But, honestly I don't know much. I just wish them the best. I don't really like to dip deep into their business. You know what I mean?"
