One of the most jaw-dropping moments during The Valley’s Season 2 trailer was between now-estranged couple Jesse Lally and Michelle Lally, who is back to using her maiden name Michelle Saniei. After calling her ex a “drunk”, Jesse quickly responded by calling her a “hooker”. She didn’t take his accusation lightly, as is seen yelling back that she’s “the mother of your f*cking child.”
Jesse has already addressed his shocking remark, stating that he’s apologized to Michelle directly and he’s working on himself. Their co-star Kristen Doute, though, still has something to say about it.
“Kristen Doute calls Jesse Lally’s “hooker” comments about Michelle Saniei “outlandish”
Both Kristen and Michelle were recent guests on Page Six’s Virtual Reali-Tea show. It was during their segment that Kristen shared her reaction to Jesse’s viral comment.
“It just seemed — and still seems — very outlandish to me. I don’t even know if there’s, like, a full resolve. You’ll definitely see a lot more of that play out,” she said in the April 23 episode.
The reality TV star went on to compare Jesse’s remark to fellow co-star Jax Taylor, which isn’t surprising since she’s accused him of lying before.
“Like, who said this and then it turned into a Jax Taylor lie? Like, it started this big and now it became this huge thing. And I’m like, ‘Was someone watching “Pretty Woman” at the time? Like, is that where they came up with this?”
Nevertheless, it’s unclear just how long this drama with Michelle and Jesse will play out. The former couple have both moved on since their on-screen fight, with Jesse hard-launching a relationship with philanthropist Lacy Nicole, and Michelle getting serious with financial advisor Aaron Nosler.
Yet, just like Brittany Cartwright and Jax, they have a child together, which means that regardless of the show’s future or their new romances, their lives will forever be connected.
The Valley is available to stream on Peacock.
