Lala Kent celebrated her daughter Ocean’s birthday a few days early with a pleasant gathering in Los Angeles.
The “Vanderpump Rules” celebrity went all out to organize a delightful “Trolls” themed celebration on March 9, 2024. Kent had welcomed Ocean on March 15, 2021, with her former fiancé Randall Emmett.
The outdoor birthday celebration took place a week after Kent announced her pregnancy with baby No. 2 through intrauterine insemination, using a donor. “I’m expanding my pod,” Kent shared in an Instagram post in March 2024.
During an Amazon Live Q&A with fans, Kent mentioned her plans to shower Ocean with “a lot of love” as she got ready to welcome her second child. She got started early with a colorful birthday celebration that focused on Ocean’s favorite things.

On her Instagram story, Kent shared a look at the outdoor party held on a sunny California afternoon. The decor included balloon bouquets, streamers, and an archway that said “Ocean is 3.” There were also large cutouts of characters from the movie “Trolls,” such as Poppy and Branch. The Picnic + Petal curated celebration also included a white bouncy house, bubble-blowing machines, and a picnic-style setup with a musician singing and playing guitar.
Food included a colorful tiered cake and “Trolls”-themed cookies set on adorable gingham plates. Several of the party guests wore princess dresses, including the birthday girl herself.
As expected, Ocean’s dad Randall Emmett was not present at the celebration amid Kent’s ongoing custody battle with him. However, Kent did invite Emmett’s ex-wife Ambyr Childers to celebrate Ocean’s birthday. The two women posed for a solo photo together as well as a family pic that included Emmett’s older daughters (and Ocean’s half-siblings) London and Rylee. Mom-to-be Lala looked radiant in an orange sundress.
On her Instagram story, Kent shared a gleeful photo of Ocean with the caption, “This face says it all. Happy (early) birthday to my forever baby. What a gem you are. I love you.”

The celebration included several cast members from “Vanderpump Rules.” Scheana Shay and her husband Brock Davies brought their 2-year-old daughter Summer Moon to the party. Stassi Schroeder also attended with her 3-year-old daughter, Hartford Clark.
Kent has become particularly close to Schroeder since they both became moms in 2021. On the March 4 episode of her “Give Them Lala” podcast, Kent revealed that Schroeder was the “second person” she told about her pregnancy. “We’re very in sync in a lot of different ways,” Kent added about her friendship with the former “Vanderpump Rules” star.
At the party, Scheana Shay shared a photo of the three VPR toddlers – Ocean, Summer, and Hartford— sitting together on an orange blanket during the musical performance. All three of the little girls wore blue princess dresses.
“In our blue era 🩵 HBD Ocean! 🌊,” Shay captioned the post.
According to The Daily Mail, Katie Maloney also went to Ocean’s birthday celebration, along with new Bravo star Jason Caperna, who is part of the upcoming spinoff show “The Valley” for “Vanderpump Rules.”
