Kristen Doute Clarifies Who She Claimed Michelle Was Cheating On Jesse With: “Just To Be Clear” - suong

   

On Season 1 of The Valley, Kristen Doute claimed Michelle Saniei previously had a “f—king boyfriend for a year” during her marriage to Jesse Lally. Kristen quickly explained that she  “meant to say…she had a boyfriend a year ago.” Now, she's clearing up one more thing about the matter.

The rumor of Michelle’s alleged past boyfriend continued to be a hot topic during Season 2’s Episode 3—this time with Jesse adding fuel to the fire with another accusation.

“Nothing about Aaron and Michelle adds up," Jesse shared with Kristen and Luke Broderick. "I think there was a situation that happened with the two of them while I was married."

Jesse went so far as to lay out his evidence that Michelle and her boyfriend, Aaron Nosler, had an affair. The evidence included Michelle going for hikes without her wedding ring near Aaron’s home, and Michelle purchasing organic honey from Aaron’s company years before they got together.

Jesse’s theory begged the obvious question: was Kristen talking about Aaron when she referenced Michelle’s "boyfriend"? Kristen cleared the air in Episode 3.

“Just to be clear, the guy that I was talking about Michelle seeing last summer, that is not Aaron,” she said in her confessional.

But Jesse was not convinced.

“Michelle and I had a conversation before the summer where she admitted to cheating on me,” he said in his confessional. “I’m 90 percent sure that this person was Aaron, and if it wasn’t, then she cheated on me twice.”

 
A split of Michelle Saniei, Kristen Doute, and Jesse Lally.

That wasn’t the only accusation against his estranged wife that Jesse shared during Episode 3. Danny Booko told Luke another bomb Jesse dropped in a group text.

“Jesse made a comment saying, ‘How is Michelle affording her place when she hasn’t made commission in two years or whatever?’” Danny said to Luke. “And was like, ‘I have evidence that she’s sleeping with a billionaire for $1,500 a night.’”

Luke then repeated to Kristen, Brittany Cartwright, and Zack Wickham what Jesse allegedly texted.

“You know Jesse saying this is obviously sh—ty…but, it’s going to get out,” Luke said in his confessional. “I don’t like these games of telephone. If they get a concise truth from me, then there’s no way to spin this. I’m saying it how it was.”

Brittany was outraged to hear the accusation.

“If you want your divorce to go more smoothly, maybe start by not accusing your not-ex-wife-yet of being a freaking hooker,” she commented.

When Michelle heard what was said about her, she cried, “All [Jesse] wants is revenge.”

 “How dare him. How dare him. He is a horrible person,” she added. “I’m shaking because no matter what, I divorced to get away from this. And he’s just making my life harder.”

Where does Kristen Doute stand with Jesse Lally and Michelle Saniei today?

Kristen and Jesse's relationship has definitely progressed since Season 1. At the start of Season 2, Jesse apologized for his anger at Kristen for repeating the rumor about his then-wife.

“You were right about almost everything,” he told Kristen. “And I think there was a subconscious level where I kind of knew it. And I think this suppression of what I actually knew led to resentment, which led to anger, which led to hatred."

Kristen accepted Jesse's apology, noting in an interview, "I think everyone should take a page out of Jesse’s book...He has humbled himself. He has worked on himself."

In fact, she declared she was now on "Team Jesse" amid the split, adding, "Who woulda thunk?”
