  • Lala Kent said she finds out new information "daily" about Randall Emmett's alleged secrets that are "a punch in the gut"
  • She claimed she recently learned that her diamond engagement ring from Emmett was fake and originally colored brown
  • Kent further claimed the ring's original designer told her Emmett "knew exactly what he was buying"

Lala Kent has claimed that her diamond engagement ring from ex Randall Emmett was actually fake and originally colored brown.

During Wednesday's episode of her "Give Them Lala" podcast, the "Vanderpump Rules" star, 31, opened up about her failed engagement two months after she and the film producer called it quits.

Kent got emotional as she revealed that she finds out new information every day about Emmett's alleged secrets that are "a punch in the gut." She claimed that one of her recent discoveries was that the 6-carat round-cut diamond ring her ex had given her when he proposed in 2018 was "fake," according to Page Six.

Kent said she once overheard Emmett talking with her mom about "how some rappers take s–tty diamonds and make them pretty." This sparked her curiosity, and following their split, she took her ring to a "highly recommended" jeweler.

The reality star claimed that the GIA certification described the stone as "treated by one or more processes to change its color."

According to Kent, the new jeweler told her the diamond "was most likely brown" before the treatment. The expert also said its price tag should be "in the teens" rather than the $150,000 that original designer Richie Rich once told Page Six Style it was worth.

The "Vanderpump Rules" star said she immediately contacted Rich, who was "a little stressed out" when she confronted him with the new information and who offered to rework the stone into a necklace.

After she pressed him for the truth, Kent claimed Rich admitted, "[Randall] knew exactly what he was buying. He knew the diamond he was getting."

"I love any type of ring that is given and has sentimental value. I don't care if it was $100, I don't care if it was $100 million — I don't," Kent said. "No wonder he whose name we shall not mention flew in four times, he had to make sure the s–t brown diamond was clear!"

The reality star has no plans to keep the ring or have the stone reworked into a different form of jewelry, saying, "I don't want this thing in my home. It's bad juju."

Kent added that she believes there has been nothing "truthful and honest" in her five years with Emmett, with whom she shares 9-month-old daughter Ocean.

The "Give Them Lala" author also spoke about their breakup on Melissa Gorga's new PodcastOne show, "Melissa Gorga On Display." In an exclusive preview obtained by E! News, Kent shared how her baby daughter has helped her through her recent heartbreak.

"I wonder often where I'm getting strength from, and obviously I see my daughter and I know exactly where my strength is coming from," she said. "This whole experience has been traumatizing and it haunts me daily."

Kent moved into her own apartment with Ocean after the split. She also transformed her "Rand" tattoo into a "bRand new" design.
