Lala Kent is excited about her newfound freedom, and the opportunity to spend time with her adorable daughter, Ocean.

“

The Vanderpump Rules star walked the carpet at the grand opening of Tom Schwartz and Tom Sandoval's new bar, Schwartz & Sandy's, in Hollywood on Tuesday,

“

and opened up to ET's Brice Sander about her split from ex-fiancé Randall Emmett, and her outlook on the future.

“

According to Kent, she and Emmett -- who called it quits late last year -- the only time she and the embattled movie producer talk is when discussing their 1-year-old daughter.

“

"We communicate only about Ocean," she explained. "It's very short, it's usually like a couple of sentences, and we leave it at that."

“

Kent and Emmett welcomed their first child together in March 2021. Nine months later, they called off their three-year engagement and have no real communication outside of co-parenting.

“

The relationship imploded shortly after the pair allegedly got into a physical fight, and Kent has claimed in the past that Emmett had allegedly cheated on her multiple times.

“

Kent, however, said the claims made in the report were "definitely disturbing" and she reflected on how

“

she will some day address her split -- and Emmett's subsequent controversies -- to their child.

“

As for now, and in the coming year, Kent explained that she's "just excited to be single and to be a good mama and free.
