The Vanderpump Rules star, 33, surprised fans with the happy news in an adorable Instagram post with her almost three-year-old daughter Ocean.

Lala reposted the announcement to her Stories, revealing that she would be talking about “all things pregnancy” on her podcast. She also added another snap to the post of her and Ocean taking Mary Ruth Organics vitamins.
The reality show siren, born Lauren Elyse Burningham, said Cosmopolitan that she wants another child, but instead of having a male partner, she shared that she wants to do everything alone.
The red carpet stunner is apparently still without a partner after leaving her fiancé, controversial Hollywood producer Randall, in 2021 amid accusations that he cheated.
Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a procedure that treats infertility.
IUI increases the chances of pregnancy by placing specially prepared sperm directly into the uterus, the organ in which the baby develops, according to the Mayo Clinic.
Another name for the procedure is artificial insemination.
The Bravo star is doing motherhood her way because she doesn’t want to wait for a partner after a nasty split with Randall.
He said that ‘finding a partner and falling in love with someone’ doesn’t have much to do with bringing a child into the world.
Kent added that it’s okay to use a sperm donor. “It’s like you’re buying for your partner, but just to have a child, so there’s a lot involved,” she said.
‘But the moment I found this donor, it caught my eye. He felt like my baby’s daddy.’
