In the latest season of Vanderpump Rules, we are introduced to a fresh face: Lila Kathan. This season, tensions rise as existing cast member, Jenna, finds herself at odds with Lila. Here’s what we’ve gathered about the new SUR employee so far.
In a recent episode, viewers witnessed Jenna mispronounce “soiree,” while her partner, Blake, made waves by uninviting Alex, Jenna’s ex, from his upcoming bachelor party. Amidst this drama, we also see Jenna attempt to rattle Lila, who is now a hostess at TomTom, reminiscent of the initiation Stassi Schroeder put Jenna through in Season 1.
The tension between Lila and Jenna is straightforward: Lila has taken a liking to Max, the general manager of TomTom and Jenna’s former romantic interest. “The only person Jenna isn’t training is the one going out with Max,” Lila quips. Jenna, on the other hand, expresses her frustrations, saying, “I used to barely notice Lila, but now she’s dating my ex.”
Things heat up when Max shares gossip with Lila about Jenna, revealing that Jenna confided in him about her birth control and plans to freeze her eggs. In a jab at Jenna, Max comments, “With Lila, there’s depth to our conversations. With Jenna, it’s just about … emojis. Not enlightening at all.” Ouch!
As we delve deeper into Lila’s background, it’s worth noting that she previously appeared on the series, having partied with the cast during their trip to wine country in Season 7. A memorable moment was her encounter with Peter, who claimed they shared a kiss in the bathroom—something Lila has firmly denied, humorously stating she would definitely remember her first kiss with “a pirate.”
But there’s more to Lila than just drama and rumored makeouts. Here are some key points about her:
Aspiring Comedian
Lila describes herself in her Bravo bio as a “sassy aspiring stand-up comedian,” and her social media showcases performances at venues like the Comedy Store. Fellow cast member, Tom, claims she’s “hilarious in person,” and Stassi shares her fondness for Lila’s authenticity and entertaining nature.
New to Los Angeles
According to her Instagram, Lila made the move to Los Angeles from San Diego in the summer of 2018.
Longstanding Friendships
Lila has been friends with several cast members, including Ariana and Lila, for years, adding layers to her dynamics within the group.
Tensions with Jenna and Blake
Reports suggest that Lila has had a rocky relationship with Jenna and Blake, indicating that much of the season’s drama will revolve around their interactions. However, a recent photo suggests that Lila and Jenna may have found some common ground.
Potential Romance Issues
As rumors swirl about Max’s extracurricular activities, Lila faces a pivotal decision: will she give him another chance, or will she explore new possibilities with close friend and SUR colleague, Noah?
Personal Growth and Resilience
On December 31, Lila took to social media to reflect on her past struggles. She candidly shared her experiences with loss and mental health challenges, noting the strength she’s gained through adversity. “LA has allowed me to grow into the woman I was meant to be, learning to prioritize my own well-being,” she stated.
As the season unfolds, we are eager to learn more about Lila and her journey.
