#Breaking 💔 Scheana Shay CONFIRMS It’s Over After Cheating Bombshell on Brock — Full Story in Comments - suong

Former Vanderpump Rules star Scheana Shay is currently on a book tour to promote My Good Side: A Memoir, which is already a New York Times Best Seller. Now, she’s opening up about the feedback she’s heard, her decision to share Brock Davies‘ affair, and more in a new interview.

As fans know, Scheana’s book was released by Grand Central Publishing on July 22. In it, she speaks candidly about her time on Vanderpump Rules as well as many aspects of her life she’d never shared before. 

The Vanderpump Rules alum recently interviewed with ExtraTV’s Mona Kosar Abdi to promote the book as well as her new collaboration with Shein. Naturally, details of the book took center stage during the conversation, with one of the first notable topics being how fans and people mentioned in it have reacted. 

Regarding the reception, Scheana said, “I think it’s been good for the most part.” She continued, “I have stayed out of the comment section because I know people are just having a field day with their opinions, and that’s great, you know, if something’s polarizing and people are talking. That’s the point.”

She went on, “But overall, this is my fifth show on tour, and everyone I’ve met, everyone who’s read the book, just really loves it. Can relate to so many different stories in it. It was important to me that if I’m going to put out a memoir, I’m gonna put it all out there.”

Scheana continued to explain, “I am a literal open book, and if I left one thing out, I just felt it would be inauthentic to who I am. So, I put it all out there, and it was just kind of one of these things where I put it all out there, and I don’t look back.”

Mona then asked her about her feelings regarding Jesse Metcalfe‘s positive response to his portrayal in the book. For context, she admitted that they had been at least somewhat romantically involved in the past in the memoir. She responded, “I loved seeing that.”

She continued, “So we have back-to-back interviews. I was at Page Six one day, and he was there the next day, so it was like we’ve been communicating through interviews. We haven’t like actually talked, but everything I said about him was completely accurate. He was such a gentleman. I mean, dating him was like a real-life fairy tale. Like, oh my gosh, John Tucker, and now we’re in the same room.”

Scheana added that her time with Jesse was “fun” but “short-lived.” She also stated that she had recently turned 22 when they briefly dated. Additionally, she had no intentions of settling down at that point in her life. 

From there, they began to discuss Brock’s affair and her decision to include it in the book. She said, “It was something we went back and forth with. Are we going to put it in the book? Are we not? The first draft I had written, it was very vague. I didn’t give a lot of details. I’m like, ‘well, this is a way to say it but not say it all.'”

She went on, “And he was like, ‘There’s no way that’s going in the book. Absolutely not,’ and I’m like, ‘Well, it might, and it’s not your decision,’ but he’s like, ‘No, what I’m saying is if you’re gonna put it in the book, say it all. Don’t beat around the bush. Don’t have this vague description of it. Say it in more detail.”

Scheana said they had “several months of conversations” and “several sessions of couples therapy” about how to include the affair in her book. After all that, she says they agreed as a family not to leave it out because it would be inauthentic for her to do so. 

Regarding where they are today, she said, “We’re a united front. I love my family. I have forgiven him. I trust him 99 percent. You know, we’re working through it. People make mistakes, and he made that mistake more than once, which was devastating, but I didn’t feel like it should have ended our relationship.”

When asked if she still plans to have more kids, Scheana said, “So I froze my eggs seven years ago, so now it’s his turn to fertilize those eggs. That’ll be the next step we take.” She went on, “It’ll be a slow process. I’m not ready for another baby just yet, even if I’m not carrying the baby and don’t have the hormones and the pumping and feeding every three hours. I still want to enjoy some time with the little family that I have now.” 

She added, “We’ll talk in a year, maybe.” Mona then asked Scheana what she thought about the Vanderpump Rules recast. She responded, “I felt like it was time. There was really nowhere we could go. They tried for so long to figure out how they could make a season 12 with the same cast, and that’s why it just kept getting pushed.”

Scheana continued, “Lala and I, Brock and Schwartz, you know, obviously appeared as friends on The Valley because they were fully thinking after we filmed that a little bit, then we would be filming season 12.” Regarding the reboot, she explained, “it made sense and I was kind of expecting it. I’m like ‘Okay, it’s September now, we’re not filming. October and November contracts are up; what are we doing? So, I think it was time. If they’re gonna reboot it, why not at the height of the show?”

She went on to say she’s “happy for the new cast” and that she’s friends with some of the girls, so she’s “gotten some stories.” When asked if she’s spoken to Lisa Vanderpump, she said she has not.
