VANDERPUMP Rules’ Ariana Madix and Lala Kent’s friendship is “OVER” as their huge premiere fight was the “straw that broke the camel’s back.”
The former gal pals got into a heated confrontation during Tuesday’s episode of the Bravo hit series and the drama – filmed months ago – boiled over to current real life, The Celeb Report can exclusively reveal.
Following the VPR season 9 premiere this week, series veteran Ariana, 36, and costar Charli Burnett, celebrated the big day by enjoying a night out on the town at Bar Lis in Hollywood.
As the group sipped espresso martinis, Ariana told The Celeb Report that to this day, she is still “no longer friends” with Lala.
“Her comments during the premiere were the straw that broke the camel’s back. After that, I was done,” she admitted.
The Fancy AF Cocktails recipe book author looked stunning in a sheer black top that showed off her bra and toned figure underneath and completed her look with grey pants.
While Charli was alongside her in a sexy black minidress with a long leather coat and thigh-high boots.
Later on during premiere night, Lala posted a confrontational picture that appeared to be shots fired at not just Ariana – but the whole direction of the show.
The Instagram post showed Lala, 31, standing with costar Katie Maloney, 34, and fired cast members Stassi Schroeder , 33, and Kristen Doute, 38.
Ariana appeared bothered by the post when Lala shared it and even accused her of “not caring about the future of Vanderpump Rules.”
She then commented on Lala’s picture: “I love you ALL but I guess I’m just confused what this post is supposed to be giving on the night of our PREMIERE?
“Are you living in the past or are you ready for the future of the show?”
Immediately after Ariana’s comment was posted, Lala deleted the Instagram.
However, she has since re-uploaded it while appearing to add shade in the caption, saying that “it’s not that deep.”
‘I DON’T GIVE A F**K ABOUT YOU’
While Ariana skipped commenting on the second post, Stassi wrote: “Love you. And loved watching Ocean’s debut,” she said of Lala’s newborn daughter.
Katie and Kristen also commented with hearts and exclaimed “I love you so much.”
During the premiere episode, Ariana was in bed with husband Tom Sandoval when she gets a call from friend Scheana Shay.
New mom Scheana, 36, went on to play a snippet from a podcast in which Lala said: “With Ariana, it is what it is.
“You know what, let’s not pretend. I don’t give a f**k about you, you don’t care about me.”
The blonde beauty was outraged with the comment and fired back: “Whatever. That’s f**king annoying and I hate that.
“She can talk about somebody else, you don’t use me to get attention. I’m over being reasonable and chill. F**k her!”
VANDERPUMP REVAMP
Ariana added in a confessional: “I don’t give a f**k about 90% of people but I’ve actually gone out of my way to give a f**k about Lala.
“I’ve opened up to her about my anxiety and mental health issues. I mean, I let the girl eat my cookies,” she added of their prior hookup in the back of the car while Ariana’s husband Tom was present.
This week’s premiere marked the first time the Bravo favorite returned to TV screens since axing many of its main cast members.
In addition to Stassi and Kristen’s firing, Jax Taylor, 42, was also terminated for making “racist” comments in the past.
With his sudden departure, his wife, Brittany Cartwright, did not return to the show either.
Vanderpump Rules airs on Tuesday’s at 9pm ET on Bravo.
