- “Shout out to my fellow late in life lesbians!! HAPPY PRIDE!!! 🧡🤍🩷,” she captioned a series of photos on Instagram on June 7

Vanderpump Rules alum Dayna Kathan came out as a lesbian in honor of the beginning of Pride month.
"Shout out to my fellow late in life lesbians!! HAPPY PRIDE!!! 🧡🤍🩷," she captioned a series of photos on Instagram on June 7.
Dayna, 35, who appeared in Vanderpump Rules in 2020, wore a black cami emblazoned with "gay" in white lettering as she spent time with friends.
“I feel like there are some moments where we all hate each other and moments where we all really love each other and between us and the OGs, the mixture of adding us into that is interesting,” Dayna previously told PEOPLE of her time on the show in January 2020. “It blends well … and I just think it's probably a fresh take.”
Dayna previously came out as bisexual during her time on the show, during which she discussed her sexuality with Love Island USA host Ariana Madix, who also identifies as bisexual.
"That was my first L.A. Pride ever though… but then I also came out as bi," Dayna said in a February 2020 episode of the hit Bravo show. "I just feel so much lighter now that that's out there."
"This Pride is my first Pride publicly out as a bisexual queen," Ariana, 40, said in the episode. "Before I would be at Pride with my friends and I'd be like 'This feels weird. Why am I like in the closet at Pride every year?'"
