In Honor of Season 3, Let’s Review the Real-Life Partners of ‘The Valley’ Cast

This season is teasing a lot of drama between Michelle and Jesse...

By

Attn, Bravo fans: The Valley season 3 is upon us, and since the Bravoverse moves fast (I mean, have you been following the Amanda, Ciara, and West love triangle??), now seems like a good time to review the relationship statuses of the Valley cast members. Some updates since season 2 dropped: Jesse and Michelle finalized their divorce, Michelle split from her boyfriend Aaron, Danny and Nia had another baby, and Jax exited the series to focus on his mental health. Two new VPR alums are also joining the Valley crew full-time: Lala and Tom. Exciting stuff!

Ahead, get caught up on the love lives of the season 3 Valley cast, which will also now include Jesse’s girlfriend (much to Michelle’s annoyance) and feature appearances from Jasmine’s fiancé Melissa and Zack’s boyfriend Benji.
