In the interconnected world of Los Angeles, it seems everyone truly knows everyone—especially when it comes to choosing the best in plastic surgery. Kristen Doute, former star of “Vanderpump Rules,” recently revealed on Instagram Stories that she shares the same plastic surgeon as Kim Kardashian.
Doute, 41, posted on Monday, July 22, a clip from a recent episode of Hulu’s “The Kardashians,” where Kardashian visited her doctor. “Only the best,” Doute captioned the scene showing Kardashian, 43, talking to board-certified plastic surgeon John Layke.
The episode captured a rather dramatic moment for Kardashian, who sought medical help after slamming her fingers in a sliding door, causing a bone to break through one of her fingers. “I literally looked at my hand and I fell to the ground,” Kardashian recounted in an earlier episode this month.
“I didn’t do anything but freeze. You can’t even describe the pain, but your whole body goes into shock. It was, like, more painful than childbirth.”

To aid her recovery, Kardashian spent four hours in a hyperbaric chamber before visiting Layke, who was pleased with her healing progress. “That looks great,” Layke told Kardashian. “I think so because a lot of that is just a little bit of dried blood and some oozing.”
Kardashian, concerned about the severity of her injury, asked Layke if amputation might be necessary. He reassured her, saying, “I think you dodged a bullet. It could have been really bad.”
Meanwhile, Doute has also been open about her own medical history and plastic surgery experiences. Earlier this year, on an episode of Prime Video’s “The Goat,” she detailed her past procedures. “I have had facial reconstructive surgery,” she shared in a May episode after host Daniel Tosh asked cast members to reveal any “enhancements” they had done.
“I broke my orbital socket, so I have titanium plates. I have Botox, and I occasionally get lip filler. But not right now.”

Doute was notably candid compared to her fellow cast members Joe Amabile, Reza Farahan, CJ Franco, Teck Holmes, Justin Johnson (also known as Alyssa Edwards), Paola Mayfield, Jason Smith, Da’Vonne Rogers, and Jill Zarin, who all chose to stay silent about their cosmetic procedures.
Host Daniel Tosh, 48, gave them a second chance to discuss any surgeries they might have had. Jason Smith, 46, eventually shared that he had his gallbladder removed, but Doute remained the only person to openly address her plastic surgery on the show.
In a city where cosmetic enhancements are common, Kristen Doute’s openness about her plastic surgery and her connection to a renowned plastic surgeon like John Layke adds an interesting layer to the celebrity landscape. Her willingness to share her experiences provides a refreshing contrast to the often secretive nature of Hollywood’s beauty standards.
