Lala Kent Shares Positive Update After Undergoing Chemotherapy Treatment

Bravo star Lala Kent is celebrating some “very happy” news after completing a months-long medical journey involving chemotherapy for a pre-cancerous eye condition.

The “Vanderpump Rules” alum took to Instagram Stories on August 5 to share the latest update with her followers. The mother of two revealed that her most recent checkup with her eye specialists brought a wave of relief and gratitude.


Lala Kent Clears Eye Abnormality After Chemotherapy Treatment

A few months ago Lala had a spot on her eye that they were watching, and ended up needed to do topical chemo drops for. She updates us telling us they’ve worked. I’ve been wondering about this since and SO happy to hear this! *And no matter what your opinion is on Lala with the show, this is great news and no negativity in the comments will be tolerated. I really don’t feel like having to delete anything, so hoping we can all be reasonable humans here. #lalakent #vanderpumprules #givethemlala #thevalley #vpr #vanderpumpupdates #realitytvnews

“I finished those maybe a couple of weeks ago, and I went to the eye doc yesterday, and of course, you know, I’m living in the ‘what-if,’ love talking about the ‘what-if,’” she said in the video. “The Virgo in me is like, ‘Let’s try crossing this bridge before we even get to it.’”

Instead of bad news, Kent revealed her doctors were “thrilled” by how well she responded to both the chemotherapy drops and steroids.

“They cleared me,” she shared. “I felt an overwhelming amount of gratitude, and just happiness, and peace.” She captioned the video with “Praise the Lord, hallelujah,” alongside emoji of praying hands and celebration.

Fans took to social media to rally behind the Bravo star amid her ongoing health journey. One supporter wrote, “Good news!! I’m happy for you and this. BREATHE!!!!” while another added, “Virgo fighting cancer here. Good for you!”


“Vanderpump Rules” Star Shares What’s Next in Her Health Journey

Kent initially opened up about the eye issue on her podcast, “Give Them Lala,” earlier this year. At first, she said an optometrist diagnosed her with an inflamed pinguecula, a benign growth on the eye’s surface. When prescribed eye drops failed to help, she sought a second opinion from a specialist.

“And she said, ‘I want to start you on chemotherapy drops,’” Kent said on the podcast. “Now I know that sounds terrifying. I cried, obviously, because the moment you hear that word … She said, ‘I want you to do the chemo drops for 3 months. We’re going to do a week of them and then go off for 3 weeks, and we’re going to do that for 3 months.’”

The specialist, who came “highly recommended,” paired the chemo drops with a steroid regimen, and the plan appears to have worked. Kent said she’s now moving into the next phase of care: monitoring.

“Now they just want to see me every four months, and then it will move to every six months, and then it will move to a yearly appointment,” she explained. “God willing that it just stays good.”
