On Wednesday’s episode of herGive Them Lalapodcast, the 31-year-oldVanderpump Rulesstar said that she had her “head in the sand for a really long time” when it came to the problems in their relationship.
While she didn’t go into specifics about the breakup, she made it clear that she didn’t hesitate to end things when she “felt unsafe.”

The beauty mogul first hinted at a split from Emmett, 50, in October, when shescrubbed all tracesof the film producer from her social media. She laterconfirmed the newson her podcast in November.
“I want to acknowledge that I’m sure everyone knows what is going on between Randall and myself and just in my personal life,” Kent said.
“There will be a time where I feel comfortable enough to open up and share. Today is definitely not that day,” she added. “It’s been a lot, I’m going through a lot.”
