Season 3 of The Valley introduced us to Jesse Lally’s new love, Lacy Nicole. Meanwhile, his divorce from Michelle Saniei is still playing out onscreen. Right now, Michelle and Jesse are being chill after two seasons of chaotic behavior.
However, Michelle was not thrilled when Jesse showed up at an event with Lacy in tow. “What the f*ck is she doing here?” Michelle asked. “Nobody told me she was coming, because she was like, ‘I would never in my life film.’” In the Season 3 premiere, Michelle called Jesse and Lacy “chaotic.” She added, “The two of them together are just insanity.”
Jesse Lally says the mother of his daughter was “kind of there for the ride”
Of course, Michelle might still be salty because Lacy crashed her zen party last season. Cameras were rolling when Lacy reminded Jesse, “I didn’t sign a release.” When a producer confronted Jesse about why Lacy was there, Jesse went off. He announced that he was “gonna go with” his girlfriend even though filming wasn’t wrapped.
So, Lacy’s decision to film this season was a shock. However, Jesse noted, “I’m only telling half of my story if she doesn’t join.” So, why did Lacy ultimately agree to go in front of the cameras? “Selfishly, my ego – I want to defend myself,” she previously stated.
During The Valley Season 3 Episode 2, Jesse met Zack Wickham at an airliner-themed bar, which looked hilarious. Neither gentleman made the cut for Lala Kent’s daughter’s birthday party. So, Jesse dove into his history with Lacy. He had been texting with Lacy until he met his ex, Michelle. A decade later, the duo reunited.
In his confessional, Jesse compared Michelle and Lacy. Consider my pearls clutched. “The thing about Lacy and I, is I feel like we’re equals when it comes to conversation … intellect,” Jesse stated. “With Michelle, I always felt like she wasn’t participating. She was just, like, kind of there for the ride.”
The Valley airs Wednesdays at 8/7c on Bravo. It can be streamed on Peacock the next day.
