Season 3 of The Valley introduced fans to Jesse Lally’s new lady, Lacy Nicole. Jesse and Lacy, who is a philanthropist, started dating in 2024. While Lacy previously had no interest in appearing on camera, she had a change of heart. And watching Jesse and Lacy’s dynamic this season is everything. After all, who ever thought we would see Jesse as a beta?
Lacy blames Janet Caperna for drama with Michelle Saniei

During the Season 3 premiere, Jesse’s ex, Michelle Saniei, wasn’t thrilled to see Lacy at an event. “She’s just not my cup of tea,” Michelle vented. Of course, during Michelle’s Zen party last season, Lacy and Michelle were involved in a screaming match off-camera. However, they were able to speak cordially at the sip n’ see event.
So, why did Lacy decide to film? “I’m only telling half of my story if she doesn’t join,” Jesse stated. “Selfishly, my ego – I want to defend myself,” Lacy added. Still, Lacy seems to have bad blood with one cast member.
During The Valley Season 3 Episode 6, Lacy joined Kristen Doute and Nia Sanchez for a shopping trip. Naturally, the discussion turned to the upcoming San Diego trip. “I don’t know that I’m going yet,” Lacy stated. “I don’t, like, love spending time with people that I don’t want to be around.” So, Nia asked, “Is it Michelle that you don’t want to be around?”
Surprisingly, it wasn’t Michelle. “Any issue I’ve had with Michelle in the past really derived, in my opinion, from Janet [Caperna],” Lacy said. Plus, after Jesse told both Janet and Michelle that they had hurt Lacy’s feelings, Janet never apologized. According to Lacy, Janet “was reaching out to people I know, trying to, like, find things out.”
Lacy added in her confessional, “It’s weird to me when somebody has screenshots of my HOA fees and Reddit threads about me in her phone. I feel like she’s looking for the smoking gun, but my life is pretty transparent.”
The Valley airs Wednesdays at 8/7c on Bravo. Episodes stream the next day on Peacock.
