Hold on tight, because the drama is about to explode! Season two of The Valley is hitting our screens, and it's promising a whole new level of bombshells, betrayals, and Bravo-lebrity chaos. Set to air on 7Bravo next week, this season throws us right back into the lives of our favorite (and not-so-favorite) reality TV stars.
Familiar faces from Vanderpump Rules, like Lala Kent, Tom Schwartz, Scheana Shay, and Brock Davies, are back in the mix, and they're getting pulled into the crossfire as sides are chosen amidst the escalating drama.
Who's returning for another round of sun-soaked confrontations and tearful confessionals? Get ready for Danny and Nia Booko, Luke Broderick and Kristen Doute, Jason and Janet Caperna, Brittany Cartwright, Jasmine Goode, Jesse Lally, Michelle Saniei, Jax Taylor, and Zack Wickham.
And introducing some fresh blood – the significant others of Jasmine, Michelle, and Zack: Melissa Carelli, Aaron Nosler, and Benji Quach, respectively. Prepare for these newcomers to shake things up and maybe even stir the pot a little!
But here's where it gets controversial... This season, it seems like everyone's relationships are put to the ultimate test. Friendships are fracturing, and long-term relationships are dissolving before our very eyes. Let's dive into the specific storylines:
Jax Taylor: After a decade of marriage, Jax is facing an emotional crisis following his separation from Brittany. Recognizing the need for help, and with encouragement from his loved ones, Jax checks himself into a mental health facility to address his anger issues. Can he truly change?
Brittany Cartwright: Brittany is on a journey of self-discovery as she navigates life as a single mother. She's determined to prioritize herself, but the temptation to forgive Jax's past transgressions looms large. As she leans on her friends for support, her relationships with Zack and Kristen are tested, pushing her to her breaking point. Will she find the strength to move forward? And this is the part most people miss... how hard it is to redefine yourself after being part of a couple for so long.
Kristen Doute and Luke Broderick: These two are moving full speed ahead with their future, including a new home and plans to start a family. While Kristen struggles to mend fences within the friend group, Luke is focused on solidifying his relationship with Kristen and her inner circle. Will their relationship withstand the pressures of reality TV?
Danny and Nia Booko: Already parents to three children under three, Danny and Nia are contemplating adding a fourth to their brood. As they search for a larger home, Nia finds herself isolated within the group, and Danny faces accusations that threaten their seemingly perfect marriage. Could this be the end of their picture-perfect facade?
Jason and Janet Caperna: New parents Jason and Janet are navigating the challenges of parenthood while holding their friends accountable for their actions. However, their confrontations are not always well-received, leading to standoffs and putting longstanding friendships at risk. Are they being too judgmental, or is someone in the group in desperate need of a reality check?
Jasmine Goode: Jasmine is focused on the positive as she takes her relationship with Melissa Carelli to the next level. However, she finds herself embroiled in drama when accused of spreading rumors about Jason. Lingering resentments with Danny resurface after a Halloween incident. Can she find peace amidst the chaos?
Jesse Lally: Jesse is trying to maintain peace during his contentious divorce from Michelle. Despite attempting to put past feuds behind him for the sake of his daughter, Isabella, he harbors doubts about Michelle's fidelity during their marriage. Will he ever find closure?
Michelle Saniei: Michelle has moved on from her marriage to Jesse, but the divorce proceedings are taking a toll. In addition to co-parenting Isabella and dealing with her mother's cancer diagnosis, she faces damaging rumors that could jeopardize her relationship with her new boyfriend, Aaron Nosler. Is she being unfairly targeted?
Zack Wickham: Ever the loyal friend, Zack stands by Brittany during her separation and supports Kristen as she clashes with Janet. As his relationship with Benji Quach deepens, Zack's attempts to prioritize personal growth are challenged by the drama within the group. Can he resist getting pulled back into the mudslinging?
The Valley is produced by 32 Flavors Entertainment and Evolution Media, an Amazon MGM Studios company. Executive producers include Alex Baskin, Jeff Festa, Joe Kingsley, Jenn Levy, Jeremiah Smith, Keith Burke, Aaron Rothman, Josh Halpert, Lisa Vanderpump, and Ryan Revel.
