The newest episode of The Valley<\/em> is definitely one for the Bravo history books.<\/p>\n

During the newest episode, which aired on Tuesday, April 23, Michelle Lally<\/strong> and Jesse Lally<\/strong>\u2018s marital woes were at the center of the drama<\/a>. The Valley<\/em> cast weighed in on whether they thought Michelle and Jesse had a future together before reuniting at an absolutely unhinged group dinner \u2014 but more on that later.<\/p>\n

Michelle was seen spending quality time with her and Jesse\u2019s 4-year-old daughter, Isabella, earlier in the episode.<\/p>\n

\u201cEver since Jesse and I had a truly honest conversation, we have just been going through the motions and focusing on Isabella,\u201d she explained in a confessional. \u201cAll she knows is bickering and fighting. I realize that it would be better to raise Isabella where she can see two people love each other instead of two people always fighting. I don\u2019t want her to grow up to think that is normal.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n\t\t\tVanderpump Rules viewers will be introduced to some new cast members \u2014 and familiar faces \u2014 in the spinoff series The Valley. In 2012, fans were introduced to the staff at Lisa Vanderpump\u2019s West Hollywood restaurant SUR, including Stassi Schroeder, Jax Taylor, Kristen Doute, Tom Sandoval, Katie Maloney and Scheana Shay. The cast faced a [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Meanwhile, Jesse told Danny Booko<\/strong> and Jason Caperna<\/strong> that he still had hope for his relationship<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am working with this coach, and yesterday, on our call he was talking about ego,\u201d Jesse shared with his costars. \u201cHe set me up with this guy who does plant-based medicine work. So he proposed that I do psilocybin and ayahuasca.\u201d<\/p>\n

He continued: \u201cI want to step outside of myself and see my ego on the inside and be like, \u2018Is that the Jesse that alienates people because he can?\u2019 And I know I use my aggression to shut the whole table up. But it is not empowerment. It is just being a monster without making people feel safe.\u201d<\/p>\n

Unbeknownst to Jesse and Michelle, their fellow cast members Jax Taylor, Kristen Doute, Jasmine Goode<\/strong> and Janet Caperna<\/strong> discussed the pair on screen. Jax, specifically, questioned Michelle\u2019s friendship with an unnamed director before claiming that she was also allegedly texting other men<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As for Kristen, she notably brought up multiple times on the show that she was protecting Michelle\u2019s secrets, which her boyfriend Luke Broderick<\/strong> also hinted at in a confessional<\/a>. The situation came to a head at the end of the episode when the cast tried to enjoy a meal together but their drama ultimately made that impossible.<\/p>\n

Before the cast members sat down at a table in a private room at the Mondrian, Jax unveiled his partnership with a hair loss brand. Jax and Jesse then broke off from the group to walk around and see other company pop-ups, which included a woman promoting her clothing store. When Michelle tried to track Jesse down, she saw him chatting up the woman<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The tense moment continued when Jesse and Michelle got to dinner. Michelle mentioned to Jesse and Jax that she was cold \u2014 but it wasn\u2019t her husband who offered her his jacket. Michelle subsequently told Jesse that he looked \u201ctoo serious,\u201d which wasn\u2019t well received.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s OK. I look what I look,\u201d he said before elaborating in a confessional. \u201cI haven\u2019t been feeling great all day because what nobody knows is that two hours before I left, I had an hour-long session with [my life coach] Scott. I had this realization that my marriage may be over. Michelle is talking about leaving me \u2014 it sucks.\u201d<\/p>\n

After Jax and Jason questioned Jesse\u2019s mood, Michelle loudly joined in.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m wondering whether my husband is OK,\u201d she said in front of Jesse. \u201cEveryone wants to know what the hell is wrong with you and to wake up. Nobody knows the quiet Jesse.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jesse, however, wasn\u2019t thrilled to be the center of attention, adding, \u201cWhat\u2019s wrong with me? Why don\u2019t you propose something that will actually keep me awake. Everyone is saying I\u2019m not interesting. People keep asking me what is wrong. Can\u2019t I just eat dinner? And have another half a dozen drinks?\u201d<\/p>\n

Brittany Cartwright and Kristen both appeared unhappy with Jesse\u2019s antics<\/a>. In response to Kristen calling Jesse \u201crude,\u201d he slammed the table, which he previously did at a separate cast outing earlier in the season.<\/p>\n

Kristen made it clear she was \u201cnot doing this again,\u201d saying, \u201cIt\u2019s not funny, it\u2019s not cute. You\u2019re a father, you are a husband and you are a grown ass man.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jesse stood his ground when he replied that he wasn\u2019t \u201cbeing aggressive\u201d with his behavior.<\/p>\n

Separate Drama at the Same Dinner Table<\/h3>\n

After Jesse expressed his frustration, the rest of the cast broke out into separate discussions. Kristen expressed to boyfriend Luke how annoyed she was by Jesse\u2019s actions for the second time in several weeks.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s so disrespectful and disgusting. He\u2019s such a f\u2014king douche. His own wife calls him a douche. Can you imagine if I called you a douchebag?\u201d she asked, to which Luke answered, \u201cI mean, you have.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kristen and Luke subsequently broke out into a separate argument about how she never called him a \u201cdouchebag.\u201d Luke didn\u2019t agree and maintained that Kristen used those words about him in the past<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Amid the back and forth, Kristen pointed out that she was the only one sober at the table besides Nia Booko. Kristen then told the rest of the cast that she wanted to \u201cpolitely excuse\u201d herself so she and Luke could head home.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s f\u2014king abusive and it\u2019s s\u2014tty and I don\u2019t like the aggression,\u201d Kristen said before Janet openly mocked her use of the word abusive.<\/p>\n

Jasmine also didn\u2019t agree with Kristen\u2019s take on the situation, noting in a confessional, \u201cKristen has this offensive bingo card. She\u2019s checking off all the boxes. Girl, calm yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n

Before Kristen left the table, Jesse told her to calm down, as well. Her friend Zack Wickham<\/strong>, meanwhile, yelled her name multiple times in an attempt to get her to stop talking. Danny also tried to get in on the conversation by raising his hand to say something but his wife shut him down.<\/p>\n

\u201cPut your hand down. You don\u2019t need to comment,\u201d Nia told Danny quietly. \u201cPut your hand down. You are being really annoying.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kristen stepped out into the hallway<\/a> right outside the room. As for Jesse, he tried to change the subject.<\/p>\n

\u201cHas anybody been to Burning Man? Does anybody want to go? It seems very salty. Like my balls,\u201d he quipped before Michelle told him to stop talking. \u201cI didn\u2019t want to f\u2014king talk and I didn\u2019t want to be here. Then I started talking and you can\u2019t tell me to stop talking.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the other side of the table, Jasmine asked Jax about his hair loss partnership, which he didn\u2019t care to address, saying, \u201cI don\u2019t want to talk about that anymore. I\u2019m over it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Getting the Producers Involved Offscreen<\/h3>\n

In the hallway, an offscreen producer urged Kristen to calm down. Their conversation was only heard but cameras were initially not pointed in that direction yet.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat do you mean calm down? He\u2019s acting like a f\u2014king psycho,\u201d Kristen told the producer. \u201cHe\u2019s f\u2014king banging his hands on the table again? This is turning into trash. He\u2019s a really horrific human, but I don\u2019t want to out their whole f\u2014king marriage and everything I know about it. And I won\u2019t do it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kristen\u2019s claims were overheard by Jesse, who at that point stepped out into the hallway as well.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you bring out any skeletons that I don\u2019t already know about my wife, I will f\u2014king bury you,\u201d Jesse said to Kristen. The Vanderpump Rules alum tried to convince Jesse that she wouldn\u2019t speak ill of his family publicly, to which he added, \u201cYeah, you would. Because you are so f\u2014king irrelevant.\u201d<\/p>\n

All Hell Breaks Loose<\/h3>\n

By that point, Luke also stepped into the hallway and tried to move Jesse away from Kristen. Michelle, however, wasn\u2019t thrilled at Luke getting involved and she also joined the group outside, where she told Kristen\u2019s boyfriend not to touch Jesse.<\/p>\n

Jesse subsequently got into a heated discussion with Luke in the background while Michelle reacted to Kristen\u2019s behavior.<\/p>\n

\u201c[Jesse] didn\u2019t do anything. Don\u2019t start more drama,\u201d Michelle fired back as she started yelling at Kristen. \u201cSo what did you do now? Stop with the f\u2014king protecting. I want you to shut the f\u2014k up. Protect me from what? I am f\u2014king tired of this. Do you know what you have done to my marriage and my life and my daughter?\u201d<\/p>\n

In a confessional, Kristen offered her side of the story, saying, \u201cI protect my friends. I protect the people that are important to me and Michelle is important to me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Michelle also opened up to the cameras about why she didn\u2019t believe Kristen<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cKristen might be saying she\u2019s protecting me but it feels like she\u2019s threatening me,\u201d Michelle noted before being asked what secrets Kristen was hiding for her. \u201cWhat can I say? I no longer understand Kristen.\u201d<\/p>\n

Viewers then got to hear a portion of Jesse\u2019s conversation with Luke.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s saying she could bury me with her secrets about my family,\u201d Jesse told Luke about Kristen. \u201cMy f\u2014king family. If you get involved in my family, I will bury you.\u201d<\/p>\n

With the situation only escalating more and more, Luke attempted to lead Kristen away. Kristen didn\u2019t back down and accused Jesse of saying things behind Michelle\u2019s back. Michelle \u2014 whose nipple was now out and censored by Bravo \u2014 and Jesse encouraged Kristen to explain what she meant by her comment.<\/p>\n

\u201cYour husband said that he is going to divorce you within two months,\u201d Kristen claimed. However, Kristen appeared to be referring to what Jesse told Jax about Michelle planning to end their marriage within the next few months.<\/p>\n

Jax confirmed that Kristen got the rumor wrong<\/a>, telling the cameras, \u201cOh yeah, that\u2019s bulls\u2014t. That was never said. It\u2019s the other way around. It is Michelle who is going to leave Jesse in two months.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jesse\u2019s anger at Kristen continued to grow as he warned Luke to keep his girlfriend under control. \u201cWho said that you f\u2014king lying, cheating \u2014 you better get her in check because I swear to God,\u201d Jesse said. \u201cYou better get her in check.\u201d<\/p>\n

Luke did not react well to Jesse, asking, \u201cOr what? You\u2019re going to put your hands on her?\u201d<\/p>\n

Things Get Physical<\/h3>\n

While Jesse and Luke squared off, Zach stepped in and urged Jesse to stop. Jesse started to walk away from the situation but turned back around when Luke said his problem was his wife.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am at the end of my rope as far as dealing with his f\u2014king ass,\u201d Luke said in a confessional about Jesse. \u201cHe\u2019s crossing lines every f\u2014king day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jesse tried to come at Luke but Zach was in the way so he pushed him. Jesse ended up slamming Zach into the wall before shoving Brittany to the side to get to Luke. Producers stepped in to move Jesse and Luke to different corners. Luke, however, maintained that he wasn\u2019t going to get physical<\/a> and it was Jesse they needed to stop.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was backing up the whole time,\u201d Luke said. \u201cHe wants to come after Kristen, I am not going to let that happen.\u201d<\/p>\n

Michelle stepped in and told everyone to go back into the hotel room. Luke and Kristen were the only ones who didn\u2019t follow Michelle inside and instead headed for the exit.<\/p>\n

Dropping a Bombshell<\/h3>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not gonna drop it to everybody. But I\u2019ll say the f\u2014king truth I don\u2019t care. The truth about their f\u2014king relationship,\u201d Luke told Kristen as they left the hotel. \u201cThey are both trash. They literally are both trash. Jesse is clearly a narcissistic asshole and she wouldn\u2019t even have a conversation with him. It\u2019s clearly both of them. Neither of them are all in by any means.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kristen admitted in a confessional that she was still \u201cholding all of\u201d Michelle\u2019s \u201csecrets.\u201d<\/a> As Luke kept complaining about Jesse and Michelle, Kristen dropped a major bombshell about Michelle and Jesse\u2019s marriage.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause she had a f\u2014king boyfriend for a year. There we all said it. Now she\u2019s protecting him and not me,\u201d Kristen claimed. \u201cAbout a year ago, Michelle and Jesse were very unhappy. Michelle had a guy. She was seeing him, they were hanging out. I was not against any of this because I think Jesse is a piece of s\u2014t.\u201d<\/p>\n
