The Valley Episode 3 Recap: Doubting Doute

Welcome back to The Valley Episode 3 recap, “Doubting Doute.” Last week’s episode showed the guys and gals having their respective nights out on the town. However, this week, Kristen found herself at the center of some messy gossip that almost seemed like a bad game of telephone. Everyone, and I mean everyone, chose to turn on Kristen due to the accusations she hurled like a discus at Michelle during Girl’s Night. Sadly, Jesse and Michelle are also realizing that they are up the creek with no paddle when it comes to their relationship. Viewers finally get a peek into Janet and Jason’s life as both are stressed about life with their new baby. Here’s everything that went down in The Valley Episode 3.

Farmer market rant

Leave it to Jax to try and turn lemons into literal lemonade as he tried to sugarcoat just how badly Guy’s Night went. Jax still seems to be having trouble understanding that inviting Alex, Kristen’s ex-boyfriend, was a major issue for Luke, who made it clear he was not going to be okay with that. Also, can we talk about how supportive Brittany is of Jax’s hjinxs? Literal saint.

Sadly Brittany, who tried to “take up” for Jax ended up getting stuck in the middle as Crazy Kristen lost her cool. I will say, whoever was in post-edit needs a raise cause Brittany’s voice dubbed over Kristen’s words was priceless.

Now the word on the curb via Brittany is that “Kristen started bringing up to Janet who told Jasmine that Michelle was racist and a Republican and all this crap.” See what I mean by a bad game of telephone?

Jasmine than jumped up into Kristen’s face letting her know she would not be thrown under the bus. Kristen doubled down and said “Actually that is what Zach told me.” Insert mayhem here. In the most dramatic fashion possible Zack yells, “I have never said that!”

Michelle isn’t pleased

Cameras caught up with Michelle and Jesse the morning after and the mother of one was not pleased. She tells her husband that she “hadn’t slept. The first time in my life I have ever heard my name associated with those words. I’m still shocked.”

Listen, Michelle has every right to be upset but Jesse is over there munching away on breakfast not looking bothered in the slightest. Come on, man! Jesse does show some emotion when he drops the F-Bomb but thankfully their daughter, Isabella makes sure to put her daddy in time out for the bad word.

I get the idea that Michelle knows Janet isn’t to blame and even points out that she is first generation Mexican and first generation Persian. Thankfully we live in a day of FaceTime so we can get to the bottom of the issues. Michelle dials Janet right up who literally laughs and calls the accusations “bullsh*t.” Janet notes she needs to have a conversation with Kristen because this gossip makes her “furious with her.” Janet confirms “those words and your name never came out of my mouth in the same sentence.”

During a confessional Janet explained that she had to put a “boundary” up with Kristen and she didn’t like it. So could it be revenge on Kristen’s part? Janet’s hot take is that Kristen doesn’t want Alex’s side of the break up to make its way to Luke. The theory tracks.

Kristen’s villain era

Kristen is oblivious that anyone is even upset with her at this point. She is packing her moving boxes and getting ready for her new space with Luke. I will say no one needs to know about Kristen’s “entire draw of sex toys” but here we are. At least she has room to play now.

I kinda get the vibe that Kristen thinks she’s a vigilante as she explains to Luke that she just saw red and Jax is being totally fake. According to Kristen, “before production started there was a lot of shit talking in the group. Janet was trying to start a bunch of shit by insinuating that Michelle could be a homophobic or racist. Then filming starts, cameras are up and we all are going to deny it.”

I love me an unhinged Kristen who feels like she has been backed into the corner. I give Luke credit because he was spot on telling Kristen she wrong for weaponzing the information told her. He seems grounded. God I hope she can hang on to this one.

The dinner from hell

Jesse and Michelle have decided to throw a Capri-themed party and I am already exhausted by it because the duo got into a fight about whether or not you should say the party is “sophisticated.”

The setting is a $18.5 million home and that was the classiest part of the night. While Luke hoped for a peaceful dinner all he got was chaos. Once again when asked about where the racist comments came from she pointed her fingers at Zack. But we all know when you point one finger at someone three are pointing back at you, Kristen.

However, the highlight of the night was seeing an activated Jesse who was told to calm down by Luke. Jesse wanted Kristen to admit that she lied but everything turned up when Jesse told Kristen to “shut the f*ck up,” causing Luke to jump up from his seat. It was a pearl clutching moment! As Zack put it, Kristen made a “shit stew with no recipe. Grabbing numbers out of it like it was Powerball.” I need a lie down.

The Valley continues Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.

Kristen Doute Slammed by Valley Cast for Repeating Michelle Lally ‘Racist’ Rumors

Even though Kristen Doute is on a new Bravo show, The Valley, she didn’t leave her pot-stirring ways in West Hollywood.

Kristen ruffled a few feathers in a new sneak peek for this week’s episode of the Vanderpump Rules spin-off. When Jax Taylor was conversing with Brittany Cartwright about girls’ night, she told him Kristen unleashed a bomb that caused much chaos.

“Kristen starts bringing up that Janet [Caperna] told Jasmine [Goode] that Michelle [Lally] was racist and a Republican and all this crap,” Brittany explained. “Then she said, ‘Actually, that is what Zack [Wickham] told me.’”

Michelle and Jesse Lally are “furious” with Kristen in Episode 3 of The Valley

Later in the teaser clip, Michelle sat with her then-husband, Jesse Lally, to explain the night’s events. “I’m still shocked to be honest with you. Like completely shocked,” she said. “I’m really upset because Janet wouldn’t say that or else she wouldn’t be my friend. I’m the one who is first-generation Mexican and Persian. I’m just so shocked and confused by the whole thing.”

Michelle spoke with Janet on the phone, who denied Kristen’s version of the story.

“OK, that’s complete bulls—t. To throw around a huge accusation like that. I need to have a conversation with her because that makes me furious with her,” she said. “That word and your name has never come out of my mouth in the same sentence. This is a whole new low even for Kristen.”

Janet and Kristen aren’t on the best terms…

In her confessional with producers, Janet explained why she felt Kristen would loop her in with a damaging rumor about Michelle.

“Kristen and I have been close for years. About a year ago, I had to put up a boundary with Kristen because her relationship with Alex [Menache] was so up and down that it was making my head spin. As soon as I put up a boundary with Kristen, she didn’t like that.”

Since then, Kristen has seemingly tried to sabotage her every chance she gets.

“It feels like any opportunity she has to throw me under the bus, she does,” Janet told producers. “To wait until her sick pregnant friend isn’t around to throw around a huge accusation like that. F—k her.”

The Valley continues on Tuesdays at 9/8c.

Paige DeSorbo Gives Update on Living Situation With Craig Conover

Paige DeSorbo and Craig Conover are still going strong … or are they? The Summer House star and the Southern Charm stud have had one of the healthiest relationships that fans have ever seen between Bravolebs.

However, in a recent Summer House episode, Craig discussed the probability of a future breakup between himself and Paige. She agreed, noting that splits were all too common these days. For her part, Paige appreciated that Craig wasn’t being naïve to that fact.

One of Paige’s biggest challenges as of late was finding a new place to live. Fans have seen that journey progress throughout the show. Now, Paige has an update on the search.

Craig and Paige talk living spaces and the reunion

In an interview with E! News, when discussing whether she found a new place, Paige said, “I actually did and I’m moving within a month.” She also joked, “Craig has ample closet space. I mean, he’s drowning in closet space.”

Craig laughed and said, “See? We’re moving it up, we’re moving it up.”

Paige was also questioned on how she was feeling regarding the reunion. “Reunion day is always like, my most anxious day, you know?” she began. “It’s eight hours of just going through stuff, and I’m really there for my hair and makeup, and my glam and my outfit.” Based. “And so that I don’t get fined.” So based.

She continued, “Every year, every time I leave, I was never expecting what happened that day, and I’m sure it will be the same six years around now.”

Craig also expressed his desire to sneak into the reunion as he felt there would definitely be some material worth watching. Only time will tell.

Deal or No Deal Island Episode 6 Recap: Another Shocking Surprise From the Banker

Photo by: Monty Brinton/NBC via Getty Images

Welcome back! Let’s get right into the Deal or No Deal Island Episode 6 recap. Last time, Aron decided that Miranda would face the Banker. She opted to take a $40,000 personal offer from the Banker, but she was sent home after making a bad deal. This week’s episode, “Are You Intentional?” features another game-changing twist from The Banker. Here’s everything you need to know about Deal or No Deal Island Episode 6!

The rise of the Night Owls

Aron was worried about his game moving forward. But Alyssa reassured Aron that she was a bigger target. She needs immunity or to face The Banker. If not, she will be packing her bags.

Meanwhile, Stephanie sounded off to Nick, Amy, and Rob about Aron betraying her. “I’ve never been so hurt because it just wasn’t on my radar,” she said. And Nick was angry because he thought he was in an alliance with Rob and Aron. But no one told him that Stephanie was a target. Nick thinks that he is the most intelligent person in the game. He was one of the top 500 people out of 90,000 who took the sanitation worker test. So, Nick is gearing up to take out the trash on the island.

And a new alliance formed: The Night Owls. This foursome always stayed up late together. Stephanie calls herself a Barn Owl, who seems “dignified” but will “scratch your eyeballs out.” Nick is a hunting owl because of his physicality. Dawson is a Long-eared owl since he knows all the gossip. While Amy is a Great Horned Owl because she is “kind of crazy” and “ready to attack.”

Stephanie has some questions

Stephanie asked to chat with Aron. Awkward! He apologized. He also admitted that sending her home was partly his plan. But it was also what Alyssa and Rob wanted. Stephanie started to cry. Aron! Why are you tossing your alliance under the bus?

He added that she was truly his friend and that he went along with Alyssa and Rob’s wishes so he wouldn’t be sent home. Stephanie told Aron that Alyssa is “untrustworthy.” She also mentioned that people want to work with him and that he has other options in the game.

Next, Stephanie talked to Rob. She wanted to find out exactly who wanted her out. She asked Rob if it was Alyssa’s plan or Aron’s idea. Rob denied knowing anything about Aron’s decision. But he knows that everyone thinks that he masterminded the plan. Then Stephanie told Rob that Alyssa was her target.

An explosive challenge

The group headed out to the next excursion. A sign read, “Danger explosives.” Rob dissed Joe’s outfit. “Joe’s got his usual outfit on. You know, something a little ostentatious, a little braggadocious. Saw the loafers, Joe,” Rob added.

Joe looked excited about the challenge. Cases are suspended over the water, with explosives attached to them. The guests will be divided into teams of two. They will each use a torch to light the fuse that will blast the cases free. The highest-value cases were suspended higher than the lower-value cases. And the highest value case for this excursion is worth $3.5 million.

In a clearing, each team has a box with up to three extenders that they can use to make the torch longer. The team that brings back the highest combined total wins immunity. The team with the lowest total will be the bottom two.

The Teams

The guys picked colored armbands, and then the ladies drew them from a box. The teams are:

Aron and Amy
Dawson and Jordan
Nick and Alyssa
Rob and Stephanie

And let me just say that Nick and Stephanie were delighted by their teammates. The Night Owls were all with other partners.

And now for the twist. The lowest case says, “Banker’s Bonus.” Players only need one extension to reach it. “It is a game changer,” Joe told the guests.

A slippery surprise

As the teams discussed strategy, most were planning to go for the Banker’s Bonus. Uh-oh! Joe neglected to mention that the cases were filled with snakes. “And don’t worry. They don’t bite…that hard,” Joe said.

Snakes are like Rob’s kryptonite, but he puts his hands in there anyway. I love how Nick screamed at the snakes. I couldn’t tell if he was being bitten or was just trying to scare them.

Aron and Amy took off first to get the Banker’s Bonus. She had to swim against the tide and keep the torch lit. Amy gets the $500,000 case and the Banker’s Bonus.

Dawson and Jordan took just two extenders. Meanwhile, Rob and Nick were still fighting the snakes for the third extender. They both want immunity. Rob pulled out the third extender just a few minutes before Nick did. They were neck-and-neck struggling to reach the highest value case. Finally, Rob lit the torch for the $3.5 million. Nick nabbed the $2.5 million.

Alyssa and Stephanie were in the water next. Stephanie grabbed the $1.5 million, and Rob and Stephanie have immunity. When it was Aron’s turn in the water, his grip on the torch slipped and it went out. He headed back to relight it, but the remaining cases weren’t enough to keep him and Amy out of the bottom two.

Boston Rob works his magic

Stephanie and Rob have to decide who will face The Banker. But Amy hoped that the Banker’s Bonus would reverse Boston Rob’s immunity.

Rob asked Amy and Aron if either of them wanted to face The Banker. Neither was enthused about the prospect. Rob wanted Amy to play because if Aron were to play and lose, Rob wasn’t as safe. But he didn’t want to force her to play because it revealed his strategy. Finally, Amy said she wanted to face the Banker. Rob is some kind of mind-control genius. The Survivor player’s powers of persuasion are amazing.

Alyssa was worried about her safety. She wants to win the money so she and her girlfriend can “open a really fun and inclusive and safe space in Missouri.” Alyssa talked with Amy, trying to save herself. But Amy shut her down, saying that she was too tired to talk game. Ouch!

Who will face the Banker in The Temple?

Amy McCoy faces off against The Banker in Deal or No Deal Island Episode 6.

At The Temple, Joe asked Amy what she would do with her winnings if she made it to the finale. Amy said, “I would buy my grandma her dream car, which is a Grand Jeep Cherokee, and then I would buy my husband a brand-new truck. He’s never had a brand-new vehicle ever in his life,” Amy explained. “We can go mudding in that truck!”

For her case, Amy selected case number eight because she and her husband were married in August. For the first round, Amy has to open nine cases. In her first four picks, Amy knocked off three high numbers, including the $3.5 million. While everyone else winced, Alyssa and Aron smiled.

The Banker called with an offer of $152,000. Amy refused it. She had to open four cases during the next round. Afterward, there were $100, $850,000, and $2.5 million left on the board. Cue the Banker’s call. Amy’s new offer is $825,000.

Joe asked Aron, her teammate, what his thoughts were. He advised her to follow her heart. Now Alyssa and Aron were looking nervous. Once again, Amy declined the offer.

She only has to open one case in the next round. Amy explained that at camp, when the tent mates picked their beds, Miranda was number two. So, she selected that case for Miranda. It knocked out the $2.5 million. So, the Banker called back with another offer. It had gone down to $467,000. Once again, Amy rejected it. Then the phone rang again.

Before Amy could find out if she made a good deal or a bad deal, The Banker wanted Aron to open the Banker’s Bonus case. It said, “No elimination tonight.”

Who was eliminated in Deal or No Deal Island, Episode 6?

No one was eliminated in Deal or No Deal Island.

The Banker certainly loves to toy with our emotions, doesn’t he? Just for fun, Joe wanted to see if Amy made a good deal or a bad deal. It would have been a good deal because Amy’s case contained the $850,000. Now the final case total is $2,841,000.

Amy wasn’t happy with the Banker’s Bonus, labeling it, “Banker’s bullsh*t.” She was disappointed that she didn’t get to send Alyssa or Aron home.

Deal or No Deal Island continues on Mondays at 10 p.m. ET on NBC.

Simon Guobadia Demands Porsha Williams Retain Texts With Mystery Man Kelvin Owusu-Ansah

As if the divorce battle between Porsha Williams and Simon Guobadia wasn’t messy enough, now we have a new character to the story. His name is Kelvin Owusu-Ansah. You’re probably wondering, “Who is that?” We’re trying to figure out the same thing.

According to Radar Online, Simon has demanded the courts to have Porsha retain her text messages with Kelvin. He also wants her to keep text messages from her sister and a woman named Karen McKinney.

Simon also asked the Real Housewives of Atlanta star to keep all of her income and financial records. This request comes amid his accusations that she strategically married and divorced him to satisfy her own “financial gain and greed.”

Who is Kelvin?

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Porsha Williams (@porsha4real)

Throughout the divorce battle, Simon has raised some very specific complaints about Porsha. He said she forcibly entered their home and showed up at their house with a gunman. When it comes to this Kelvin person, Simon didn’t dive into many details. He didn’t mention why these texts would be relevant to the divorce case.

It’s not completely clear who this person even is. There is an African sports broadcaster whose name matches the one in the court documents, but Porsha doesn’t appear to be following him on social media. With that said, it’s also unclear what Simon is trying to say about the nature of their relationship. He provided little context about what he’s asking for here.

While Simon leaves us all scratching our heads with this latest court filing, Porsha has accused him of violating their prenup. According to their agreement, he was supposed to vacate their home within 30 days of a divorce. Porsha said he’s refusing and even changed the locks on the house to keep her out. Perhaps this Kelvin guy is just a locksmith in Atlanta caught up in all of this mess.

Simon has also sent a cease-and-desist to those filming the next season of RHOA. Hopefully, there’s a way around that, because missing out on all of this real-life drama would not be beneficial for the show’s much-anticipated comeback

TELL US – WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS MYSTERY MAN NAMED IN SIMON’S FILING? DO YOU THINK MORE INFORMATION WILL COME OUT ABOUT HIM AS THE DIVORCE BATTLE CONTINUES?

Rihanna Gave Kyle Richards Marriage Advice Amid Separation

Kyle Richards has shed some further light on the moment she met Rihanna in Aspen. Back in January, the two happened to be doing some VIP shopping at the same outfitter.

News of the encounter spread across the internet with Rihanna reportedly feeling a lot of enthusiasm to speak with Kyle. As many Bravo viewers know, the Grammy winner is a huge fan of the Housewives, including The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

However, the two did more than share their excitement and pleasantries. As it turns out, Rihanna offered up some advice to Kyle in the wake of her marital problems with Mauricio Umansky.

Rihanna defends Kyle amid costars’ questioning her

While on Kelly Ripa’s podcast, Kyle recounted the moment she met Rihanna. “So, she was in Kemo Sabe when I was in Aspen,” Kyle began.

“It was actually closed, Kemo Sabe, and I was heading home and I saw there was a light on. And I was like, ‘Oh, I need to get something from there,’ and I knew they would open the door for me. So I knocked and they’re like, ‘Oh, it’s Kyle.’ And I saw them like saying something like, ‘What do we do,’ and I was like, What’s going on?’”

The staff let Kyle inside and told her Rihanna was upstairs. Kyle then reported that Rihanna was a fan of the show, alleging that the singer met one of her daughters and said she was “obsessed” with the Umansky family.

Once upstairs, Kyle said Rihanna was “so sweet” and offered “all kinds of amazing advice about my marriage, the women, and how we’re handling things.”

“I haven’t told anybody this, but she said something that was so amazing … She said, ‘Next time one of these women want to know all the details of the intimacies of your marriage, tell them ‘Why do I need to give you the blueprint to my home when I’m already renovated?’”

Kyle went on, calling the artist “smart,” “incredibly supportive,” and “a beautiful person.”

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is streaming on Peacock.

Scheana Shay Teases ‘Something That’s Never Happened Before’ at Pump Rules Reunion

The Vanderpump Rules Season 11 reunion is fast approaching, with filming having wrapped up just a week or so ago. Now, Scheana Shay has reported that viewers might be in for a real surprise.

If Scheana is right, the reunion could be exactly what Season 11 needs. So far, not many viewers have been impressed with what VPR has to offer post-Scandoval. More than anything, the frustration comes from an attempt to redeem Tom Sandoval when it seems he hasn’t changed at all.

On the March 26 episode, fans saw Lala Kent drifting toward a defense of Tom, much to Ariana Madix’s displeasure. Is it any wonder the two had a confirmed falling out at the reunion? But whatever happened, Scheana has hyped it up.

Scheana claims Lala said what everyone was thinking

E! News caught up with Scheana over last weekend’s Newport Pickleball Tournament. When asked what fans could expect from the upcoming reunion, Scheana teased, “Something that’s never happened before.” As far as what she could divulge, she suggested that Lala was the driving force behind the surprise.

“I don’t know if you’ll be shocked by Lala. But she definitely says what I think a lot of people maybe think and don’t say out loud.” To put on my tinfoil hat for a moment and drum up a theory, it sounds like Scheana is talking about the much-discussed fight between Lala and Ariana.

Something that “a lot of people maybe think and don’t say out loud” could likely refer to criticisms of Ariana. Few speak out against Ariana these days because it’s PR suicide among Bravo fans. Just look at where Lala’s been since news of her feud with Ariana dropped.

And, to be frank, Ariana certainly is worthy of some criticism. But Season 11’s attempts to redeem Sandoval by dragging her down have just been silly and insulting. Granted, we don’t know with any certainty what Scheana was referring to.

Vanderpump Rules Season 11 continues Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.

Below Deck Season 11 Midseason Trailer: Jill Zarin Turns Karen

As if the crew on Below Deck Season 11 haven’t struggled enough, things are about to go from bad to worse. Bravo just dropped the midseason trailer, and we’re about to get a slice of the Big Apple. Jill Zarin from The Real Housewives of New York City will make an appearance as a charter guest. Does it surprise you to learn that she’s bringing a ginormous list of demands? These yachties aren’t going to know what hit them.

In the Below Deck midseason trailer, the stakes are higher than ever before

There are nine episodes left this season, and the trailer shows that there is a whole lot of drama left to unpack. This crew has already navigated being short-staffed. They lost their bosun. They lost a stew. Now, in the second half of the season, they have to deal with being terrorized by Jill.

“This is a buffet meal,” Jill quips in the trailer. “This shouldn’t be a three-hour meal. Make it better.”

Everything Jill says has a certain sting to it. When she’s complaining, it’s amplified to the thousandth degree. In another clip, you hear her complaining to the interior crew about a cold burger. Suddenly, Scary Island doesn’t seem so scary.

Of course, Jill’s charter crew includes her boyfriend, Gary Brody, and daughter, Ally Shapiro. Jill doesn’t leave the house without them. In the trailer, we see Gary jumping in on the complaints as well. He seemingly slams the service, exclaiming, “This is crazy!”

Outside of Jill dragging the entire Below Deck cast, we also get a glimpse of the new stew that’s arriving to replace Cat Baugh. Plus, it looks like Captain Kerry Titheradge might have to fire another crew member. The trailer teases some tough feedback he delivers to one of the yachties.

“I’ve done everything I can for you to succeed. The issue is that you’re not thriving,” Kerry says. That can’t be good, but we will certainly be tuned in.

Below Deck Season 11 continues on Bravo, Mondays at 9/8c.

Why Robyn Brown Is Her Own Worst Enemy

Sister Wives fans thought they might have been able to escape from watching Robyn Brown, but it seems that the wedding special focused on Kody Brown’s favorite wife’s two-faced ways. Robyn has been one of the most disliked TV personalities on TLC for ten years, thanks to her crying and manipulation. So when Kody’s wives started dropping like flies, it made sense to assume that Robyn and her charming husband would ride off into the sunset, never to be heard from again. But the mother of five still hasn’t learned to keep some of her opinions to herself.

TLC Kept Cameras Rolling

This isn’t TLC’s first rodeo when it comes to making sure they catch all the drama between Robyn and the rest of the polygamous family. More than once during Season 18, the camera caught Robyn making herself look bad. And whether she knew it or not, these moments have been engrained into viewers’ minds. During the early years, it felt like Robyn and Kody were often granted immunity from the editing gods as the cutting room floor spliced and diced her less savory moments. However, Season 18 showed that TLC was no longer willing to play that game.

During one of the family’s last conversations, Robyn walked away from Kody and Meri Brown in hopes of being the center of attention. The scene was painful as it became clear she didn’t want Kody and his first wife to be talking. The move was so transparent that it became comical. Instead of having Robyn’s confession fade into a scene of whimpers, Robyn looks extremely foolish and calculating. I mean, Meri was the one losing her marriage, but no, you go and make this about you, Robyn.

Robyn Is Miserable

Every Sister Wives season has shown Robyn hysterical as the season ended, praying her polygamous family stays together. But this last season just highlighted how miserable the mother of five truly is, and you know what they say: misery loves company. Nothing the first three wives could do was ever good enough for Robyn and her dream picture.

It didn’t go unnoticed that Robyn also didn’t enjoy being on screen or filming inside her house. Frankly, if she didn’t want to be on screen, she shouldn’t be getting a fat paycheck. Season 18 showed just how much Robyn was riding the coattails of the others and getting more out of the situation. The revelation blew fans’ minds since she isn’t the one opening her home to the crew or showing any vulnerability.

Robyn Shut Up Kody

View this post on Instagram

Perhaps the most telling sign was how Robyn managed to cut off Kody from speaking about his feelings about Christine on her wedding day. Let’s be honest; it wasn’t going to be positive, but why else have viewers stuck it out for so long? It was to see the drama that is Kody losing his mind. It is obvious the two are not happy with the state of the family, and the theory was proven when Robyn stopped Kody short of calling out Christine literally by covering his mouth. While with any normal couple, the move would have been generous, Robyn once again came across as controlling.

Kody tried to say, “She made the accusation that I had –” Robyn stopped him in his tracks, saying, “Aren’t we just so happy for them?” The whole scene gave me the ick. But that is what Robyn does best. Kody tried to pipe up again, but Robyn kissed him, noting, “We’re just so happy for them, right? That’s what we want.” She is a leech who latched herself onto a married man three times over and then seemingly ruined the family.

Robyn never learned to normalize her emotions, and instead of befriending the rest of the family, she thought gaslighting them would be appropriate. Now, she might only have herself to blame.

The Valley Episode 2 Recap: Tit for Tat

Welcome back for our recap of The Valley Episode 2: “Tit for Tat.” Last week’s episode kicked off the latest Bravo spinoff with a bang, introducing some new, smiling faces. However, this week, those happy faces have turned into frowns, especially after Nia witnessed her husband being pantsed by Jax. Nia is still livid this week about the practical joke, but there is trouble elsewhere, too. Jesse gets himself into hot water after an altercation with Kristen and Luke. And Jax’s guy’s night comes to a screeching halt after he invites someone who is meant to catch Luke off guard.

Doute disaster

At the start of The Valley Episode 2, Jax and Kristen decide to meet up for a lady’s lunch situation after the father of one took it upon himself to blast Kristen for wanting to have a child with Luke. There is a high chance The Smokehouse Grill would go up in flames with these two prominent personalities, but it seems that first snacks are in order.

I don’t want to judge Jax’s qualifications when it comes to being a friend, but wouldn’t you think that a guy who has been friends with Kristen for 16 years would remember that she is a vegetarian?

But, I will say, Jax jumped right into the apology, claiming he didn’t mean to “corner” her at Janet’s birthday. For those who don’t recall, Jax was surprised that Kristen was even thinking of letting Luke impregnate her. Forget that it was none of his business; he made it his business, along with making everyone at the party uncomfortable.

Frankly, Kristen is saying what I think most women in the country are thinking, “Why are my guy friends saying, ‘I don’t really trust your decision about your own life, Kristen.'”

Kristen is paying a price

Yes, Kristen made mistakes with her ex, Alex. She sold her house and moved in with him, and they broke up several times before he kicked her out. But life happens, and last time I checked, Jax was not the poster child for great life decisions.

But things are looking up for Kristen, who claims that her and Luke’s communication is “stupid impeccable,” whatever that means. Jax makes it clear he doesn’t care how many kids Kristen wants; he just says that she and her new beau are not on the same page.

Honestly, I am blown away at this man’s audacity in claiming he knows which relationships in his friend group are thriving and which are not. According to the supposed #1 guy in the group, he is “pretty good at spotting a Kristen Doute disaster. I can spot it a mile away.”

Guys, I’m dead. My jaw is on the floor, and again, I am thanking my lucky stars that Jax is back on my small screen. No matter how much projection he indulges in.

Luke is forever

I will say Kristen might not have her finger on the pulse. She claimed that Luke would definitely be moving to LA, and she would be signing her own lease.

Jax went on to say he’s “seen a lot of guys like look come in and out of her life, and they leave, and they need therapy.” The former T-shirt entrepreneur wants her friends to treat Luke better because he isn’t going anywhere.

Kristen swears Luke is going to be forever, which means we only have one choice; to grab the popcorn and sit back.

Trouble in paradise

It is clear Michelle and Jesse are not okay even during a West Hollywood park day with their daughter. The two were extremely passive-aggressive about teaching their daughter to ride her bike. This whole scene gave the impression that the two love to fight, and this round is about their parenting styles.

I will say, Michelle gets the jabs in. My favorite had to be that she wasn’t aware Jesse had no patience. Sadly, Jesse hit the nail on the head, revealing in his confessional, “I’ve changed into somebody she doesn’t want.”

Also, a huge red flag for me is that Jesse doesn’t remember nipple-gate. After four minutes of hockey, the boys talk about how Jesse grabbed Kristen’s nipple at the birthday party. Instead of owning up, Jesse doubles down, saying a “nipple twister doesn’t seem like my style.” Really? It seems very much like your thing, Jesse.

Alex cometh

As Kristen said earlier in the episode, “Jax stumbled into a saint who is willing to deal with his bullsh*t. God bless Brittany.” And that couldn’t fit Jax more, especially when it comes to the explanation of boy’s night.

Luke finally found his backbone and decided to stand up to Jax after it became apparent he had invited Kristen’s ex to the bowling night. Is Jax the Don of the group? Because it sure feels like it! He tells Luke that he has “great motivation on this. I want you to be a part of the group.” Next thing we know, Luke will have to kiss his ring.

After Jax clarifies that he wants Luke and Alex to be friends, the Colorado native refutes the idea and states his case. Luke is being pretty great as he stands up for Kristen, yelling, “I have her back 100%.” Luke also notes that Kristen is still very triggered by her past relationship.

Even though Luke is new, he hits the nail on the head, explaining, “Jax knows her triggers. I don’t think this is something friends do to friends.” You’re right, Luke. Inviting a friend’s ex is not what a true comrade does.

The Valley continues Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
