Jax Taylor told Michelle Lally he heard a rumor that she had been texting other men and Michelle confirmed it on Tuesday’s episode of The Valley on Bravo.
The 44-year-old reality star spoke privately with Michelle, 36, and revealed that Kristen Doute, 41, had told him about the texting with other men.
‘I did tell her that I met this celebrity and I was texting him and I had coffee with him one morning,’ Michelle confirmed.
‘She told me that you are texting this man,’ Jax said. ‘I hate doing this, Michelle. Like sexy pictures of yourself.’
‘She is right,’ Michelle said. ‘I have texted multiple people.’

The episode titled The Big Bear Bombshell opened with Jax telling Kristen and her boyfriend Luke Broderick, 33, and Zach Wickham that they were not invited to Janet Caperna’s baby moon weekend in Big Bear. Zach cried when he found out.
Jesse Lally, 39, returned from his weekend plant based medicine and meditation retreat and hugged his wife Michelle saying he felt like a different person.
‘It was the most unbelievable experience,’ Jesse, 39, said. ‘I literally died.’
Michelle yawned as he talked about his experience.
‘I was blind and now I could see,’ Jesse said.
‘Thank you for doing that. I think that’s a big step,’ Michelle said.
Janet’s friend Simon told her that Zach and Kristen cried when they learned they weren’t invited to her baby moon.
‘She’s definitely playing the victim here,’ Janet said about Kristen in a confessional.

Janet called Zach and told him it was not a friend trip but that it was a babymoon.
‘It kind of feels like you’re entitled to come to my baby moon instead of like I would love to come and be there and celebrate with you and Jason,’ Janet said. ‘But you’re like, I don’t get to go, I should get to go. And it’s unfair that you’re doing this to me.’
Janet, co-host of the Scheananigans podcast with Vanderpump Rules star Scheana Shay, told him her phone was dying and hung up.
The group who was invited drove to Big Bear. Nią Booko , 34, a former Miss USA, and her husband Danny Booko, 40, brought their twin girls on the trip because she was still breastfeeding.
‘I absolutely love Big Bear,’ Jax said.
‘I’m excited for me and Jax to get away together for a little bit without the baby,’ Brittany Cartwright, 35, said in a confessional. ‘I just want to let loose and take away from all the stresses of opening a bar and everything else that’s on our mind.’
Jesse brought a suitcase that was filled with alcohol.
‘Don’t ever believe somebody that says oh don’t worry the house will be full of alcohol and groceries,’ Jesse said in a confessional. ‘Your idea of alcohol and my idea of Bordeaux are a little different.’

Janet gave Jax a t-shirt that had a photo of when he called for the lifeguard to come help him when he went out too far swimming.
‘It’s a reminder that I will not be swimming to a buoy and back,’ Jax said.
Jesse told Michelle it was going to be a love trip for them and they would be having tons of sex.
‘No it’s not,’ Michelle said.
Janet said she wanted a weekend without drama so if anyone said Kristen’s name they would put $20 into a jar and whoever avoids talking ‘s***’ gets the jar of cash.
Janet and the other girls went to a pontoon boat she had rented while the guys set up on the beach and started drinking.
Janet asked Jasmine about what happened at Kristen’s event when Zach started crying.
‘To be perfectly honest I don’t think Zach should necessarily expect to be invited,’ Janet said.
Jax told Danny and Jason Caperna, 40, that Jesse still didn’t know what Kristen said about Michelle texting another man on the side.
‘Why are we sneaking around like little b****es?’ Jason said. ‘If we have some information that our friend should know we should f***ing tell him straight to his face.’
Kristen and Luke met with a premarital counselor at their apartment in Los Angeles.

‘I want to bring a couples counselor in because Kristen and I don’t always speak the same language,’ Luke said in a confessional. ‘Getting on the same page is difficult.’
Kristen said in a confessional that she had been in therapy since her and Tom Sandoval broke up. She thought couples counseling was a good idea.
Allen the marriage therapist asked them about their relationship. He asked them if they talked about finances and Luke said that was something he wanted to get more information on. Allen asked how their families felt and whether they were in Los Angeles.
Luke and Kristen both said their families lived in other states. Allen said support systems are very important when you have a baby.
‘I’m very much lacking in the ability to see value in these people,’ Luke said of Kristen’s friend group.
Kristen said in a confessional that she had been in therapy since her and Tom Sandoval broke up
‘Who we surround ourselves with defines us,’ Allen said. ‘If you’re excited and somebody’s not mirroring back to you then you question yourself.’
‘I definitely don’t want to live here long term,’ Luke said. ‘I don’t think I can be happy in this environment.’
‘We haven’t figured that out yet,’ Kristen said.
Jesse and Michelle started play-fighting on the beach. Jesse hit Michelle’s nose by accident.
‘You hurt my nose,’ Michelle said.
‘I’m almost ten years post nose job,’ Janet said. ‘Yours is one year out?’
‘A year ago, yeah,’ Michelle said.
Brittany started watching videos of their son Cruz at swimming class screaming and got sad. Jax tried to grab the phone out of her hands and told her to turn the volume off.
‘I don’t want to hear the baby cry a hundred times,’ Jax said. ‘It’s my child.’
‘Jax’s does not care how he talks to me in front of people,’ Brittany said in a confessional. ‘He’s talked to me like this in front of my friends, in front of my family, in front of my dad and my mom.’

Brittany made the driver pull over the car on the ride back to the house to throw up.
‘Let’s not tell Jax I had to throw up because he will not let me live it down,’ Brittany said. ‘He’ll be mean to me about it.’
Jesse and Danny had a blow up in the car when Jesse refused to apologize for being a little out of control. When they got back to the house, Jesse just ran inside and got into his bed.
The Valley will return next Tuesday on Bravo.
