During Us Weekly’s cover story, Kristen, 42, revealed which costars — past and present — have supported her since her and fiancé Luke Broderick welcomed their daughter, Kaia.
“Nia [Booko] has helped me through my fertility journey and through my entire pregnancy. We’re sending voice memos to each other every single day. She’s literally in the same exact position I’m in right now but she’s just done this before,” Kristen shared. “Her and Danny [Booko] are just both right there to give us any advice that we need and they’re always on call.”
Kristen is grateful for Nia, 35, and Danny’s support as they prepare to welcome their fourth child.
‘Vanderpump Rules’ Cast: Then and Now
“We have a group text with Nia, Danny, Luke and me, and even if I’m texting Nia one-on-one, she’ll reel it back to the four of us and she’s like, ‘Daniel really wants to be involved,’” she added. “It’s just really great to have the two of them.”
It doesn’t stop there — The Valley’s Jesse Lally, Brittany Cartwright and Zack Wickham have also shown up for Kristen and Luke, 34.
“[Jesse has] given a lot of really amazing advice as a girl dad to Luke and just constantly checking in on us and seeing if we need anything. Jesse’s been fantastic,” Kristen shared with Us. “We were in our pediatrician’s office and Brittany is our emergency contact in California. I told her that actually. I was like, ‘So I didn’t ask you ahead of time, but you’re Kaia’s emergency contact.’ She loves it.”
Kristen continued: “[Brittany’s] been over a couple of times, but she’s so excited about it. She knew the gender of our baby before we did, so it only makes perfect sense. She lives right down the street from us. I’m over there all the time.”
The same can’t be said for Brittany’s estranged husband and Kristen’s costar, Jax Taylor. “I wouldn’t let Jax babysit Luke’s gecko — who requires no work whatsoever,” she joked. “Absolutely not. I wouldn’t let Jax babysit my Yeti. Like, no.”
When asked whether Kristen heard from her former employer Lisa Vanderpump, she quipped, “What do you think? No and it will undeniably stay that way.” At the same time, Kristen has been pleasantly surprised how this next chapter of her life has allowed her to move on from past feuds with people like Lala Kent.
“Strangely enough with Lala, it has been kind of public that we made up in a way. She landed a really gracious apology, which I appreciate. We have not talked everything through yet. We definitely still have some things to do,” Kristen noted to Us about the mom of two. “But she’s been very understanding that I’m not ready for that yet. I was pregnant but she’s been really helpful. She lent me a night nurse. She’s talked me through things and she’s been someone that’s been really great to text.”
Biggest 'Vanderpump Rules' Feuds Ever — and Where the Relationships Stand
Kristen has also remained in contact with Ariana Madix over text as she continues to host season 7 of Peacock’s Love Island USA in Fiji. Weeks into being a mother, Kristen is prioritizing her peace and her loved ones as she and Luke adjust to being a family of three.
According to Kristen, Bravo viewers will get a glimpse into this era of her life when cameras pick back up for season 3 of The Valley.
“It’s going to be the best video yearbook ever for us to film season 3. The production company and network are so respectful of us being new parents and what that means,” she teased. “I’ve talked to [VPR costar] Scheana [Shay] about when she filmed with Summer, same with MJ [Javid] from Shahs [of Sunset]: she filmed with her son when he was days old. So I’ve had these conversations [of] what that was like and if it was hard on their bodies, their minds, their emotions and everyone’s been like, ‘You know what, you kind of don’t even think about it.’”
Kristen is also thankful for the second chance to document her life after being a main cast member on VPR before her exit in 2020.
“I’m very humbled that the viewers say they love this new era. The past hasn’t been so cute. I started TV when I was in my late 20s, but I did a lot of questionable things in my 30s as well,” she noted. “I’m stoked that they’ve given me this opportunity to show who I am now.”

On June 25, Howard filed a declaration as part of her lawsuit against the Minnesota Timberwolves star over their daughter, Aubri, claiming, in part, that Edwards’ legal actions have caused her “financial harm.”
Last year, a DNA test determined Edwards was the father of the baby girl, born in October 2024. Howard filed a lawsuit against Edwards in California for paternity and child support. The NBA star filed a separate lawsuit in Georgia.
Edwards did not think Howard actually moved to California and said he believed she filed in Los Angeles in hopes of scoring a higher child support award. Howard denied his claims and said she moved to L.A. months before their daughter’s birth.
In court documents, Edwards made it clear he was not seeking custody or visitation of his daughter. He said the only issue that needed to be determined was support.
Earlier this year, the judge presiding over Howard’s case in L.A. determined that child support should be set in Georgia. However, he said the custody order could potentially be established in L.A.
NBA's Anthony Edwards and Influencer Ayesha Howard's Relationship Timeline
At a hearing on May 19, the parties went back and forth on the issues. At one point, Ayesha asked the judge, “Being that he is not seeking visitation or custody, why does he even — why is — does it matter where my child is. It’s not like, ‘Oh I have to come visit her in California.’”
Edwards’ lawyer argued for the custody to be set in Georgia. He said, “Because right now, today, [Edwards] is not requesting custody. I don’t know what happens over the next 18 years.”

Later, Howard told the court, “As far as child support goes, I mean, as far as child custody goes, Anthony does not want anything to do with my child. He has expressed that. He has shown that. I haven’t seen him. [Aubri] hasn’t seen him — never. So, I mean, whether custody was honestly here or in Mars, I don’t think it would inconvenience him or matter at all.”
In her recent motion, Howard claimed that a couple of days after the hearing, Edwards and his team agreed to give her sole physical and legal custody of their daughter.
She attached the proposed judgment, allegedly sent by Edwards’ team, which granted her sole custody. The proposal also contained a provision prohibiting each party from talking about the other on social media or publicly.
Howard said she asked that Edwards’ lawyer remove certain provisions from the deal, but they have been dragging their feet.

In her motion, she accused Edwards’ team of violating the court’s directive and engaging in “bad faith delay tactics,” which have caused her “unnecessary financial harm.”
Specifically, she said they have refused to submit the proposed judgment awarding her sole custody. She said the Georgia court won’t rule on child support until a custody judgment is entered.
Howard said this has caused her daughter to be left “unsupported by her father for an extended period of time.”
Edwards has yet to respond.

Kim Porter’s friend Eboni Elektra broke her silence after a verdict was reached in Sean “Diddy” Combs’ sex trafficking trial.
Diddy, 55, was found guilty on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution on Wednesday, July 2, but was acquitted on charges of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking. Elektra, 54, took to Instagram later that day, writing alongside a photo of the rapper, “PRAISE GOD. OPINIONS ….we are all entitled to them. MISTAKES… we all make them. JUDGING… we all do it. GOSSIP …. we are all guilty of it.”
Elektra went on to clarify her perspective.
“GOD’S WILL… is higher than any opinion , mistake, judgement, or gossip,” she continued. “If this is God’s will for Puff / diddy , [then] that’s His will. In the end, what we think does not compare to His will.”
Diddy's Dating History Through the Years
The post concluded: “WHO ARE WE TO JUDGE??? That’s God’s job. It’s all in His hands. U never know. #isallintheword#readyourbible … my opinion.”
Porter and Diddy had an on-and-off relationship from 1994 to 2007. The couple shared son Christian, 27, and daughters Jessie and D’Lila, both 18. Diddy adopted Porter’s son Quincy Brown, 34, whom she welcomed with ex Al B. Sure! (Diddy is also the father of son Justin, 31, with ex Misa Hylton, daughter Chance, 18, with Sarah Chapman and daughter Love, 2, with Dana Tran.)
In November 2018, Porter died of pneumonia at age 47. After news broke of her death, Diddy mourned his ex.
“For the last three days I’ve been trying to wake up out of this nightmare. But I haven’t,” Diddy wrote via Instagram at the time. “I don’t know what I’m going to do without you baby. I miss you so much. Today I’m going to pay tribute to you, I’m going to try and find the words to explain our unexplainable relationship. We were more than best friends, we were more than soulmates. WE WERE SOME OTHER S***!! And I miss you so much. Super Black Love.”
Diddy’s personal life was put on display when he was arrested in September 2024 following a raid of his Miami residence. Diddy pleaded not guilty to charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion and transportation to engage in prostitution. He was accused of sexual assault and sex trafficking by multiple people — including ex-girlfriend Cassie — but continued to deny all allegations made against him.
“We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office,” Diddy’s attorney Marc Agnifilo told Us Weekly after the arrest. “Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is a music icon, self-made entrepreneur, loving family man and proven philanthropist who has spent the last 30 years building an empire, adoring his children and working to uplift the Black community.”
Breaking Down Diddy’s Legal Troubles and Accusations: A Timeline
Agnifilo added: “He is an imperfect person, but he is not a criminal. To his credit, Mr. Combs has been nothing but cooperative with this investigation and he voluntarily relocated to New York last week in anticipation of these charges. Please reserve your judgment until you have all the facts. These are the acts of an innocent man with nothing to hide, and he looks forward to clearing his name in court.”
Following the jury’s verdict, Judge Arun Subramanian denied Diddy’s request for bail, ordering him to remain behind bars until he returns to court on October 3 for his sentencing. The defense is seeking a prison sentence of 21 to 27 months. Prosecutors, meanwhile, asked for a sentence of 51 to 63 months. Diddy will also get credit for the time he’s already served since his 2024 arrest, with Subramanian noting he is willing to move up the sentencing date upon the defense’s request.
