Nia & Danny are annoying but the rest of them need to get over it & move on now.

Janet shut up. She is really pushing this drinking thing. She's the worst.

Brittany can shut up too. She covered for Jax for years.

As much as I'm not a Danny fan let's not compare him to garbage Jax lol.

Not Scheana boo! Listening to both Scheana's voice & Michelle's voice is torture lol.

Nia is  really  a natural  beauty,  isn't  she. She wasn't  hiding  anything.  I have heard what Danny did and said to Jasmine quite a few times. Was it wrong, yes, very wrong, but they went to therapy  over it, they worked  through  it, until it was okay for Nia.

Maybe Jasmine needs to talk to someone. 

Janet, omg, she made it all about her, now she's  dragging Jason into it.

I like Nia  so much, I feel like sticking  up for Danny.

Everyone  changes when they drink, they get funny, and loud, or like Jesse  last week, says things he knows was wrong. BTW Isabella  can say I love you to Aaron, but Michelle  doesn't  like it because  the new woman in Jesse's life, Isabella  called her mom. 

Brit can't  say anything. Jax is an ass drunk or sober! 

Has Luke got that kind of money for that ring.?

The way everyone started and kept piling on Danny was ridiculous. 
Brittany- yes she put it out there that she picked quite the douche to be the father of her child. She’s taking too much credit. Jax had already shared his douchery for years on VR. 
Jasmine- Danny was wrong for squeezing her leg and grabbing her partners butt. HOWEVER, he did apologize and she sat there and accepted it. Stop going on and on about it. 
Janet- This one is the worst in my opinion. Danny did nothing to this woman  except comment that the others had a head start on the drinks. So he took a shot of tequila behind the scene. Who cares?  The audacity of this asshole to compare Danny to an unknown junkie loser that she chose to date was absurd.  I’ve thought that Jason has been okay up until the preview of him questioning Danny. You know that nagging wife of his put him up to it. I’m looking forward to the wedding ring rumor.  
Luke is the voice of reason this season. He came out and said the group gets together and drinks. That’s what they do. 
I don’t think Nia tries to present a perfect front. Last season she shared her struggle with postpartum depression.  She also acknowledged they differ on where they want to tot buy a house. They put the struggles of caring for their children out there. 
Janet also had the nerve to take a dig at Danny’s job as a voice over actor. What does Janet do for money except chase third and fourth rate celebrities? 
I’m tired of the Jesse and Michelle divorce saga. Also, I must have been half asleep the last time Aaron was on because I didn’t notice his crazy eyes that someone mentioned here but last night that was all I saw.

So Nia shares that what hurt her the most was that instead of talking to her directly, they were talking behind her back. They apologize only to turn around & do the exact same thing as soon as she leaves??? They aren't your friends.

Good on Kristen for standing up to them & being an actual friend. Jasmine & especially Janet can take seat. Worry about your own miserableness.

I'm convinced Aaron's the long lost son of Ramona Singer. Those eyes!

I've slept on it & decided I don't like Jasmine either. Jasmine & Janet suck. This prob makes me seem bad but yes your friend grabbing your thigh is wrong but relax already. Sometimes ppl do stupid things drunk. I feel like Jasmine wants a moment & a storyline.

Jason obviously is trash he's just hiding it because who willingly marries trash Janet. The way she's trying to push some alcoholic storyline is gross. She was on WWHL last night & lost all the polls in a landslide. It made me laugh. The episode was garbage too because Jason was there.

I love Kristen more for actually sticking up for Nia. Like someone up thread said I like Nia so it makes me root for Danny too. 

Also Luke actually making some sense by the pool. I don't mind him either.

I can't unsee Aaron's crazy eyes either. Michelle totally wants to erase Jesse & make the family her Isabella & Aaron now which is gross. Aaron seems off. I don't like him.

Janet and Jason were on Watch What Happens Live yesterday. The number one question from the viewers and the first question Andy Cohen asked Janet was why she exposed Nia for being on Al-Anon (which is supposed to be anonymous). Yes, she did that too....Janet had to say she regretted it. Jason agreed with everything Janet said and did on WWHL, and the show. 

Brittany didn't have to expose her whole life. She chose to be on a reality show, and what Jax did (his addictions, and his behavior) were known. She also tried to cover up for him for a long time, but she was eventually unable to continue doing so.

Is it ethical for a life coach to claim repeatedly on tv that his client's wife cheated for two years? Was he doing Jesse's dirty job? Jesse said he was their marriage counselor, but he still kept working with him. Why? It's obvious he doesn't want to work on his marriage. He is in the process of a divorce, and he hates Michelle. Oh, I get it. He still gets life advice from him (not really, the platitudes are not convincing). So, the coach's tv appearance was in order to badmouth her. 

Michelle is not great either. The session with Scheana was in order to discuss Jesse (negatively, of course).

Jasmine is blowing what happened out of proportion. She’s trying to pile on for the sake of a storyline. She sucks and could disappear. No one would miss her.
Janet comparing Danny to an addict was bullshit too. Her moral high ground is fake.  
Does Brittany want an award for dragging her poor son onto a show and further exposing her husband for the jackal that he is?

By the way, WWHL cut out that segment on the west coast and Peakcock airings of the episode.  Are they trying to cover for Janet? She, Jasmine and Brittany accuse Nia of rehearsing and trying to cover for Danny for what she had to say to them regarding her past. Zack is quick to point out that Jasmine didn't feel that way until "someone" (Janet) brought it up and that she's manipulating them all against Nia. 

One of the polls asked "Who's the biggest pot-stirrer: Kristen or Janet?"  Jason said 100% Kristen, only for the poll to come back almost 100% Janet.

1. Jasmine, I don't think Danny said "Get Daddy a drink"; I bet he said "Get Danny a drink" but because he was drunk (which he admits) he slurred it. Your actions have made me question whether he grabbed your thigh or just touched your knee.

2. Also Jasmine, if you aren't okay with what someone did to you, don't accept their sincere apology and say everything is fine. 

3. Janet, you are just the worst. First, Danny wasn't hiding in a closet drinking; he went to where the tequila was. Also, he spoke to you and said he needed to catch up to the rest, so that wasn't secret. Secondly, let the mouse go. Finally, Danny's alleged drinking is your version of making fetch happen. Stop it.

4. Jason, you said Danny is hurting other people. Who? 

5. Brittany, shut it.

Jasmine said something towards the end about Danny doing what he did "in this friend group" - right, he got drunk and was inappropriate with his friends.  He's not doing it to strangers!  (that they know about or we'd have heard 😂)

Brittany sucks but I'll give her credit for apologizing better than your average Bravo star!

I just watched The Valley episode on Peacock, and I think they edited the al-anon part out. I thought I had just missed it when I read about it here, but with you say WWHL was edited, it makes me think the episode was as well. I don't think it was to protect Janet though. I suppose someone thought belatedly not airing that Nia is in al-anon would be the right thing to do. 

I don't care if Danny's got a drinking problem; I find him insufferable regardless. The way he said, "Niiiiaaa," like she was lying when she said she tried to wake him up made me want to punch him (last episode).

Watching these people go on and on about Danny’s big drinking problem, I had two questions: 1) Did Danny bring the tequila into the pantry or was the bottle located in the pantry? And 2) When was this filmed, aka how long ago was Halloween? I think the answers to these questions are relevant to assessing how problematic Danny’s drinking is. Danny confirmed to Nia that the bottle was in the pantry, which means he was just swigging it in an area of convenience, not “hiding.” As for when this was filmed, if the Halloween thigh grabbing was recent, I can see why they’re bringing it up, but say it was like 6 months ago and Danny hasn’t had any untoward actions since, then they should just chalk that up to Danny having a bad night, not being a secret addict. Because of their big cause for an intervention is that Danny “fell asleep” after taking a swig of tequila (or 3 glugs per Janet) from a pantry shelf…okaaay??? He wasn’t acting any more drunk than anyone else. Just like I said Michelle has been making herself look bad by confronting Jesse, Jasmine and Janet are just making themselves look not great by confronting Nia about not confronting Danny. Just mind your own business. Kristin was the only one showing any sense this episode by pointing out they were all overreacting about Danny.

This is such a frustrating episode to watch.  I will give Jasmine a pass because I believe her when she said she thought she was over it but maybe she isn't. Britney was out of line but I believe her apology was sincere, she knows people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. But Janet?  Shut TF up. He didn't sneak or hide, he followed you, you were there, he did it in front of you.  If he wanted to sneak he would have gone in after you left the pantry.  But he does have a drinking problem. Maybe not an every day drinking problem but when I drink I drink too much drinking problem

Quote: 

Filming for "The Valley" Season 2 wrapped up on November 26, 2024. The show premiered on Bravo on April 15, 2025.

Hmmm… it does seem as if the inappropriate touching had occurred rather recently.

 

Oops! Jasmine says, “Halloween, last year…” which implies it was Halloween 2023. So I agree with @JenE4. It’s a long time to be clinging to this, if there were no additional offenses since then.

I find it amusing that these cast members are clutching their pearls over Danny's drinking, when most of them drink way more than he ever has shown.

I also feel that the show would do well if Jax, Janet, the lesbian couple, and possibly Zach were removed?(Although I don't mind Janet's husband). I don't mind Scheana as she's everywhere on Bravo and gives good tv. Not sure the purpose of Lala, unless she's coupled up?

Honestly, the only reason I think her calling him a cokehead who spent all their money is worse than him calling her a whore is that I think she's actually telling the truth.  They both suck hard.

What do lawyers say? It's not defamatory if it's true.

Given the amount of time Jesse partied out with Jax, I wouldn't be surprised if he dabbled. But there doesn't appear to be indicators, or red flags, revealing he's fallen off the rails.  Jesse seems to be an involved father.

I'd be more invested in them if they made a sincere effort to co-parent their daughter; but they're too angry, selfish & toxic to make the effort for that little girl.

Doesn't matter as Kristen has always had available funds. I can't think of a single relationship she has been in, where she wasn't the main provider, paying the majority of the bills. Very similar to Scheana.

She's trying to get ahead of the narrative, in the hopes that Jesse will be too embarrassed to seek further courtroom appearances. She knows Jesse will fight her for custody, and make her life hell over every divorce detail, just for the spite of it.

It was rumored that they were promised roles on The Valley for going after Ariana during the end of the last VPR’s season.  At least their time on The Valley has been minimal.

They looked like jealous fools during that time. Lala was mad that she didn’t get the same fame when Randall cheated. Sheana was jealous of Ariana getting Dancing with the Stars. I don’t want to see them at all but at least it’s a bit satisfying that they are taking any crumbs they can get from the spinoff.

Isabella at least seems to be thriving and happy now despite these two trying to destroy the other. It will take a toll at some point. She at least seems happy unlike poor Cruz who looked scared of Jax in that one scene. Hopefully it’s not the norm for him.

Michelle has said “I just want to get divorced”.  Well Jesse is the father of their child and he is not going to dissolve and let her go on her marry way.  He will be part of her life forever, get use to it.  It wasn’t Jesse who started the rumor about her cheating, it was Kristen and I applaud her for that.

The point isn't whether it's true. Michelle constantly screaming that she's "the mother of his child". Well, he's the father of your child so you offer the same respect you're demanding. 

Michelle keeps changing her complaints about him too. Last season it was he didn't compliment/love her enough, then he spent all their money, then he was taking money from gay men, now he's a drug addict.

They've been separated for over a year, she's living with Aaron, isn't it time to move on? The comments on the show are one thing, it was filmed months ago, but to be a on literal press tour seems a bit much IMHO.

Brittany looks awful.  She’s styled like she’s 50 years old.  Those huge knockers age her.  I hate looking at her.

Brittany needs to soften her makeup. She shouldn’t use an eyebrow pencil at ALL. She should never wear that harsh red or deep pink lipstick. She needs to remove those enormous implants. Whoever performed the liposuction on her neck should lose their license.

I agree that Michelle needs to ignore Jesse, but to be fair, she only responds with outrage at Jesse because he can't stop initiating these quarrels. All of Michelle's meltdowns only occur because of Jesse's exaggerated accusations..

I rewatched the episode (first airing) on Bravo- there was no Al-Anon comment. Andy Cohen mentioned it on Watch What Happens Live in the very beginning of the show (his first question to Janet). I'm in the East Coast, and I watched the first airing of it. 

If it was edited out, it was most probably because the definition of Al-Anon is to be anonymous.
