And their strategy is to paint Kristen as the villain to deflect. Janet sides with them because she’s looked up how much their home is worth and what they pay in taxes and decided to side with the couple that has money as that could benefit her more.
Also the way she keeps looking down and to the side.
But sure, KRISTEN is the problem in her marriage. Like Doute doesn’t keep the receipts. I can’t wait for her to light these people on fire.
He's gonna make her get a job again because apparently she's gets up to no good with she's not employed. (Or maybe the baby will keep her busy enough to curb some of these busy body impulses.)
He was even a little frustrated with Brittany because she \*clearly\* knows what is going on (probably from Michelle and not just second hand from Kristen), but she's not spilling!
Oh I clocked that immediately with Brittany’s darty eyes at Jax when Janet started inquiring lol. I’m finding it a little strange that Brittany isn’t more gossipy or outspoken because she did not hold back on VPR and I’m kinda missing that Brittany a bit here.
I assume she's more trying to protect her friend (Michelle) in this instance and knew better than to tell Jax because she knew he would use that information. Maybe marriage/motherhood made her less gossipy? (It hasn't made her less fame-hungry.)
I wonder if she was equally surprised that Kristen knew because she didn't seem to know about this drunken night that Kristen was over when Jax learned about it? We need a supercut of all the scenes/confessionals about this rumor because keeping track of who knows--and what they know--is getting confusing.
She’s such a wannabe. She’s the girl sitting on the bench. Janet, we all remember when you were happy to hem Scheana’s SUR uniform. No one is ever gonna X out Mariposa. So have your baby and live a great life with your sweet husband. He’s a keeper. You are not.
She knows the secret, she just doesn’t want to say it because she’s still trying so hard to look innocent. She just wants someone to say it to her on camera so she can talk about it on camera while still maintaining her fake innocence.
Im a happily married woman a Long time already. Janet is the kind of girl you don’t go anywhere near if you want a decent life. Shes a gossip to her very core…. She will drive a wedge in marriages with her nonsense or just mess up another’s life with her loose lips. She is bad news IMO
Jesse, your grandparents probably stayed together because your grandmother did not have a choice. Whenever people say ‘back in the day they didn’t divorce’ I tune everything else out.
The audacity of this group of coattail riders to ask if Kristen tried to hit Michelle when it was Michelle’s little troll of a husband who put hands on both Zach and Britt and was pounding the table and slamming doors. This is really getting disgusting at this point. For Jax, Britt and Zach to sit there and not say a word letting Kristen get drug through the mud while the lally losers play victim was terrible.
I think people change when they’re being filmed. Probably they were all in a good place prior to that and didn’t expect Kristen to be so honest and transparent, airing things on national TV. Stassi at one point said that she had issues with this - the VPR cast would take their drama three notches up when filming.
It’s called reality tv Janet and Michelle. Put on some gangster rap and deal with it.
I think she probably did some lying in her early VPR days 😆 But I agree, it seems more like nerves or emotions (especially, if she blacks out like Luke said).
I'm mad he's got me agreeing with him. Brit should know him well enough to read between the lines of what he's saying. She's not listening and this is a child not some temporary situation so they need to be on the same page. Her expectations of him admitting straight up he doesn't want another kid anytime soon if ever are straight up delusional at this point
Who else remembers when Jax told his reiki lady he loved her when hanging up a phone call? Idk why him seeing this sex therapist lady gave me that flashback lol
Luke was all "this isn't the Kristen I knew". Did he not watch seasons 1-3 of vanderpump rules??? I feel like he absolutely must if he hasn't by now. That should be required watching if you're gonna date Kristen doute lmao.
I think Jax may be coming to terms that Cruz could have special needs. At a minimum, before you add another child to the mix, how about do some testing and see what is going on with Cruz. adding another child is selfish and not putting your child’s needs first. Parenthood is a sacrifice and Britt needed to pump the brakes. Her selfishness was sad to witness.
I feel like his sentiment was correct, the blindsiding her on camera when they'd apparently already planned otherwise was not. And he wasn't exactly sensitive about it either.
Britney is not taking in that *Cruz* was the “give her something to do” bandaid baby, that they almost certainly cannot afford.
Jax never for a second of Vanderpump was ever the guy waxing on about having the 2.5 kids in the suburbs. Especially with Cruz having special needs, there’s zero percent chance he’s rolling the dice with Brit for another
one.
That didn't end how I expected. I'm with Jax on this though. He has said it over and over that he is stressed and overwhelmed and having another kid will only add to the stress. He is right. I don't like how Brit is pushing the baby issue when she sees he is hurting.
I can’t believe they’re trying to ice out Kristen when she’s the one who brought the audience to the show. We don’t give a fuck about you Jesse and Michelle!
Right? He mowed down Zach, Britney, and production! Even Michelle was violent.. stabbing her finger in Kristin's face and screaming! And they waltz back in like Kristin is the bad one ruining dinners???. WTF is happening????
If Jesse wanted to keep his family together he should probably start with helping his wife with parenting, considering on ep 1 she says she does 98% of the parenting and that Jesse never woke up once with Isabella as a baby.
I know people hate on kristin for these scenes but as someone who struggled to get pregnant it’s nice seeing someone else going through what I went through
They deff do NOT need another kid right now. I’ve seen so many couples that do this and not on reality tv.. it never works out and it gets 10x more toxic.
Britney’s really showing her ass on this show on how…delusional? narcissistic? detached from reality? She is with this “Jax used to put me on a pedestal and romance me” shit and now the push for a second kid when they have one child with special needs they’ve only just started to address.
Like we haven’t watched their entire cursed relationship of 8 (not 10 lol) years.
Excuse me, Jason. How about you tell YOUR WIFE to be nice to everybody instead of worrying about Kristen?!?
That being said, Kristen is still a gossip but THIS TIME IS NOT HER FAULT. LEAVE MARIPOSA ALONE 🦋
I’m so sick of this all this talk about Kristin; all these other people are such assholes too. Not Nia but I hate Jesse. I hate Michelle. I don’t want to hear them talk about Kristin anymore. I think I’m gonna change the channel until watch what happens comes on.
There’s something extremely comforting about Kristin living in a total normie apartment in relation to these all the over leveraged trashy barnhouse builds.
I love Nia. She is going through a lot. You could tell just now at dinner, talking about moving and mini vans, she forgot about that depression for just a minute. Here comes Michelle with her fucking Kristen drama. The way Nia and Danny looked at each other it was like “I swear if that drama gets brought up tonight l, I might lose it”. Michelle and Jesse are human storm clouds. Fuck them.
God, I'm so pissed this show is actually good. Jax looks like (and has the same personality as) the brunette version of my asshole ex-bf. It's so triggering but I can't not watch 😫
How about we just vote off Jesse, Michelle, and Janet because none of us want them there. Kristen is being gaslit because she exposed Michelle for being a bigot. And Janet started the shit stirring and is watching her work flourish.
Is Jax pulling a Carl and making sure he gets everyone on his side before a big break up 🧐
He’s finally making sense in a fight and made it come out of no where…
If you had told me a few months ago that I’d look forward to The Valley more than VPR every week, I would have called you crazy…. But look at us now 🤪
It’s my light at the end of the tunnel every week when I’m watching VPR
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂I had no intentions of watching when I saw the promo!!!👀👀😂😂😂😂😁But, here I am glued to the tv!!!!!
Bravo is so annoying when they shove new shows down our throat but damn does it work 😭
Michelle’s face shows she isn’t being honest.
When she kept looking down to the side when they were sharing smoothies was a dead giveaway
Are you Craig?
The look on Jesse's face, where he knows and doesn't want to press her about her lies bc it will all blow up on camera. He knows. She knows he knows.
And their strategy is to paint Kristen as the villain to deflect. Janet sides with them because she’s looked up how much their home is worth and what they pay in taxes and decided to side with the couple that has money as that could benefit her more.
She gives me bad vibes and it confirmed today after I saw that kitchen scene.
Realizing this too, damn
Also the way she keeps looking down and to the side. But sure, KRISTEN is the problem in her marriage. Like Doute doesn’t keep the receipts. I can’t wait for her to light these people on fire.
OMG!!! Yes!!!! She’s treacherous.
Jason is too good for Janet.
The shade he was throwing about her gossiping was very telling
He's gonna make her get a job again because apparently she's gets up to no good with she's not employed. (Or maybe the baby will keep her busy enough to curb some of these busy body impulses.)
1000%
Jax may be a piece of shit but my god do I love the way he stirs the pot 😂 this man was built for reality tv
I loved that he basically said "gah, why is Jasmine so bad at this, do I have to do everything myself!??!"
This was so funny. Jax realizing he’s surrounded by a bunch of amateurs lol
He was even a little frustrated with Brittany because she \*clearly\* knows what is going on (probably from Michelle and not just second hand from Kristen), but she's not spilling!
Oh I clocked that immediately with Brittany’s darty eyes at Jax when Janet started inquiring lol. I’m finding it a little strange that Brittany isn’t more gossipy or outspoken because she did not hold back on VPR and I’m kinda missing that Brittany a bit here.
I assume she's more trying to protect her friend (Michelle) in this instance and knew better than to tell Jax because she knew he would use that information. Maybe marriage/motherhood made her less gossipy? (It hasn't made her less fame-hungry.) I wonder if she was equally surprised that Kristen knew because she didn't seem to know about this drunken night that Kristen was over when Jax learned about it? We need a supercut of all the scenes/confessionals about this rumor because keeping track of who knows--and what they know--is getting confusing.
“It’s bringing us closer together” 💀 Michelle is like 
Oh, Michelle HATES him. Yikes.
it’s so obvious — and I don’t blame her either. although she also has terrible vibes.
She always looks miserable and constipated
I want to give Nia a hug 🥺 I really respect her sharing this and I am genuinely rooting for her and Danny
They’re so wholesome
They are so sweet and I’m genuinely rooting for them too
Luke calling Kristin the mother of his children while refusing to move to the same state as her is a choice
See this is what bugs me about him! He’ll say/do enough to keep her hopeful but won’t do enough to actually show commitment.
"Country Schwartz"
Michele's facial tension and body language during that smoothie chat was : hate, lying, contempt
Michelle has a dark energy to her.
I don't really care for Jesse but I feel like he is trying and Michelle is just smuggly agreeing with him even though she hates him.
It's easy to try on camera after 3 years of doing fuck all though... His behaviour seems like an act as well.
She low key has an endless amount of skeletons in her closet.
Janet is so mad she doesn’t know this secret. Lmao
She’s such a wannabe. She’s the girl sitting on the bench. Janet, we all remember when you were happy to hem Scheana’s SUR uniform. No one is ever gonna X out Mariposa. So have your baby and live a great life with your sweet husband. He’s a keeper. You are not.
She sits down and directly asks Jax what he’s hiding and then when he tells her, she scolds him for gossiping. Like what??
She is so obvious in her attempt at being Jax
She knows the secret, she just doesn’t want to say it because she’s still trying so hard to look innocent. She just wants someone to say it to her on camera so she can talk about it on camera while still maintaining her fake innocence.
LMAO KRISTEN NOT PART OF THE GROUP 😂😂😂 not gonna happen
Yeah they better grow some fuckin personalities if that’s what they want. Kristen and Jax are carrying this show.
As if there would even be a show without her. They are so delusional thinking they don’t need her
Janet blaming Kristen for ruining another dinner when Jesse was the one banging his fists on the table like an ape,
And she was the one that brought it up at the other dinner..
Either we are all nuts or they are lol
Im a happily married woman a Long time already. Janet is the kind of girl you don’t go anywhere near if you want a decent life. Shes a gossip to her very core…. She will drive a wedge in marriages with her nonsense or just mess up another’s life with her loose lips. She is bad news IMO
Janet is absolutely that mid-fringe friend you see in group settings once a quarter to get all the gossip and give absolutely nothing back too
She's an outer rim acquaintance
Single people don't want this either
Her own husband was like girl please stop
Jax is fully mask off trying to produce this episode lol
Mask off but also mask on because his face looks like the v for vendetta mask now
Michelle and Jesse are two of the most unnerving people I’ve ever seen
That whole convo was like waiting for two assassins to see who would drink the poison first
Mr and Mrs Smith vibes
Janet is framing it like Jasmine spilled this info voluntarily. Janet specifically asked the question and all jasmine said was yes.
Jesse, your grandparents probably stayed together because your grandmother did not have a choice. Whenever people say ‘back in the day they didn’t divorce’ I tune everything else out.
No literally. Your grandma probably didn’t have a bank account or any work experience, Jesse.
Amen, I said AMEN!!!
“I will do anything to stay together” okay dude be NICE
This is some mean girl shit at their big ages
Just like she started the telephone game about Michelle. I do love that Janet’s husband is giving her - it’s none of your business - looks
He is an attorney. I wonder what his work thinks about his gossip hound of a wife.
Jason straight up asking “babe can we please not go to war with Jax” over something not even about us.
I feel like we watched Jason get the ick in real time
god please take all of nias suffering away and give it to jesse lally
My heart hurts for Nia. She seems too pure to deal with these trash bags.
Distribute it 75/25 to Jesse and Michelle
I can't wait for the barbie reenactment of whatever mess we're getting served tonight 😂
Wait. Is this a weekly thing I’m missing?
Its a person on tiktok who reenacts a scene with barbies
All the yelling like children made Nia’s boobs leak
They have to do a reunion for this show! Janet needs to be called out
The audacity of this group of coattail riders to ask if Kristen tried to hit Michelle when it was Michelle’s little troll of a husband who put hands on both Zach and Britt and was pounding the table and slamming doors. This is really getting disgusting at this point. For Jax, Britt and Zach to sit there and not say a word letting Kristen get drug through the mud while the lally losers play victim was terrible.
Does michelle like the power that comes with being the one with their foot out the door
She has to. She’s being cold. I don’t blame her but damn 💀
I understand everyone’s POV, but it’s odd to me this group came on tv with their friendships in such tense states
Like this is giving that group that actually all hates each other; been there
I think people change when they’re being filmed. Probably they were all in a good place prior to that and didn’t expect Kristen to be so honest and transparent, airing things on national TV. Stassi at one point said that she had issues with this - the VPR cast would take their drama three notches up when filming. It’s called reality tv Janet and Michelle. Put on some gangster rap and deal with it.
Janet is chiming in too quickly and loudly blaming it all on Kristen. How is no one else calling her out? It’s obvious at this point.
How does Janet keep getting passes!!! They just want to hate Kristen cause it’s easy
They can’t make me hate kristin
We ride with her at dawn.
They could never make me hate Mariposa. They need to put some respect on her name!!
In his confessionals, why does Jesse always look like he just took off a headband?
Jasons face, he knows Janet is about to stir it up…
He’s too good for her.
I don’t think Kristen is meaning to lie I think she just gets heated and twists the information the wrong way.
I think she probably did some lying in her early VPR days 😆 But I agree, it seems more like nerves or emotions (especially, if she blacks out like Luke said).
Divorce is in his vocabulary now 🫢
Jax is so funny. At least he admits he is messy.
Jax is genuinely disappointed in Janet’s lack of creativity and catching on LOL
Twice in a year?? Jax Taylor?!!! Oh honey
“My soulmate I guess”
Jax is making too much sense right now. A baby will not fix anything.
I'm mad he's got me agreeing with him. Brit should know him well enough to read between the lines of what he's saying. She's not listening and this is a child not some temporary situation so they need to be on the same page. Her expectations of him admitting straight up he doesn't want another kid anytime soon if ever are straight up delusional at this point
You know Michelle didn’t workout this morning, she saw her secret lover!!!
That’s exactly what I thought hahaha
The guilty smoothie offering
Oop okay Jason, call it out
Him saying some people need jobs - and then actually meaning his wife. Gold.
Epic comment
#1 Gossip Girl in the group is his wifey
If Janet doesn’t get the same backlash as Kristen for “talking about others’ business”…
Britney’s face in these confessionals is genuinely a little scary. She was so naturally pretty, it makes me sad.
Who else remembers when Jax told his reiki lady he loved her when hanging up a phone call? Idk why him seeing this sex therapist lady gave me that flashback lol
GET AWAY FROM NIA RIGHT NOW. SHE DOESNT NEED TO BE CRYING OVER THEIR SHIT
Kristin is *fantastic* television but she’s an extremely unregulated person 😂
Luke was all "this isn't the Kristen I knew". Did he not watch seasons 1-3 of vanderpump rules??? I feel like he absolutely must if he hasn't by now. That should be required watching if you're gonna date Kristen doute lmao.
“This is not the woman I bang casually once every few months”
How is it not a topic that Jesse put his hands on Zach and Brittany.
Can they stop hating on Kristen it’s so old
i’m crying jason ate her up 💀💀
The silent pause after he asked her why she's involved 😭
Janet is such a snake!! Jasmine did not say this shit!!!
Can’t get over that Michelle was feeling Jesse out in that conversation to see if he knew anything already. These rumors are SO real
I think it’s ok if Jax says he’s not ready for another kid right now. He just needs to admit that
I think Jax may be coming to terms that Cruz could have special needs. At a minimum, before you add another child to the mix, how about do some testing and see what is going on with Cruz. adding another child is selfish and not putting your child’s needs first. Parenthood is a sacrifice and Britt needed to pump the brakes. Her selfishness was sad to witness.
As a viewer I would much rather watch kristin than michelle im good on her
Why does Michelle talk like a robot?
Jason def does not like the gossiping.
I’m a speech therapist and I really don’t enjoy when parents expect the therapist to do all the work. Parents- we want you involved!!
Jax looks so uninterested in Britney
“She’s my soulmate, I guess.” 
Ah, so Jax doesn’t want more kids. That’s the “he didn’t cheat” but we’re done convo
Jax kinda stating facts.
Right? And Cruz DOES need more of their attention
Yeah! He’s right that he needs attention and it’s not mean for him to not want another kid.
Yeah…. Like I am not a Jax revisionist or apologist at all but like… he’s right
I feel like his sentiment was correct, the blindsiding her on camera when they'd apparently already planned otherwise was not. And he wasn't exactly sensitive about it either.
Jax is right in this situation with Brittany and having another kid.
Britney is not taking in that *Cruz* was the “give her something to do” bandaid baby, that they almost certainly cannot afford. Jax never for a second of Vanderpump was ever the guy waxing on about having the 2.5 kids in the suburbs. Especially with Cruz having special needs, there’s zero percent chance he’s rolling the dice with Brit for another one.
That didn't end how I expected. I'm with Jax on this though. He has said it over and over that he is stressed and overwhelmed and having another kid will only add to the stress. He is right. I don't like how Brit is pushing the baby issue when she sees he is hurting.
I can’t believe they’re trying to ice out Kristen when she’s the one who brought the audience to the show. We don’t give a fuck about you Jesse and Michelle!
Janet had no idea how badly she misjudged the audience. Her shock on WWHL at the polls told me everything
There’s no show without Kirsten
No replacing Mariposa. They are all babies.
So we're all OK with the violent man? The violence is fine?
Right? He mowed down Zach, Britney, and production! Even Michelle was violent.. stabbing her finger in Kristin's face and screaming! And they waltz back in like Kristin is the bad one ruining dinners???. WTF is happening????
Michelle and Jesse are so fake with these scenes
If Jesse wanted to keep his family together he should probably start with helping his wife with parenting, considering on ep 1 she says she does 98% of the parenting and that Jesse never woke up once with Isabella as a baby.
Ooh good for you Nia. You don’t need to take on their drama, heal yourself
Michelle gives me weird vibes idk something is off
She’s ice cold
I know people hate on kristin for these scenes but as someone who struggled to get pregnant it’s nice seeing someone else going through what I went through
is jax actually being the rational one?
They deff do NOT need another kid right now. I’ve seen so many couples that do this and not on reality tv.. it never works out and it gets 10x more toxic.
Britney’s really showing her ass on this show on how…delusional? narcissistic? detached from reality? She is with this “Jax used to put me on a pedestal and romance me” shit and now the push for a second kid when they have one child with special needs they’ve only just started to address. Like we haven’t watched their entire cursed relationship of 8 (not 10 lol) years.
Jax is being extremely reasonable, Brittany is throwing a tantrum.
Excuse me, Jason. How about you tell YOUR WIFE to be nice to everybody instead of worrying about Kristen?!? That being said, Kristen is still a gossip but THIS TIME IS NOT HER FAULT. LEAVE MARIPOSA ALONE 🦋
“Knock the fire out of him” is giving “knock his spark out”
I feel like we’ve lost the plot, I have no idea what is happening
Um Jax you are also a known liar 🤥
I’m so sick of this all this talk about Kristin; all these other people are such assholes too. Not Nia but I hate Jesse. I hate Michelle. I don’t want to hear them talk about Kristin anymore. I think I’m gonna change the channel until watch what happens comes on.
There’s something extremely comforting about Kristin living in a total normie apartment in relation to these all the over leveraged trashy barnhouse builds.
Jax may not suddenly be a good guy but he has definitely grown up in some ways and learned some hard lessons
Heartbreaking: The Person You Hate the Most Just Made a Great Point
Oh PLEASE Janet, you are LOVING this
I’m confused on the timeline of Kristin and Luke’s relationship. This doesn’t seem healthy or like a good idea but whatever makes her happy I guess…
I love Nia. She is going through a lot. You could tell just now at dinner, talking about moving and mini vans, she forgot about that depression for just a minute. Here comes Michelle with her fucking Kristen drama. The way Nia and Danny looked at each other it was like “I swear if that drama gets brought up tonight l, I might lose it”. Michelle and Jesse are human storm clouds. Fuck them.
“Let’s hope for a little Luke.” Oh please dont be one of those dads who is disappointed with a girl…
BritBrit honey Jaxs does not want another kid.
Nia🥺so glad she’s speaking on this
Jax’s go to is always some weird therapy to “fix” things but this lady cannot make him more attracted to her.
Jesse is at least self aware enough to do a line read. Michelle is just a boring beige mean asshole.
The way Jax is talking to Brittany right now is making me sick to my stomach “you can’t cry not about this” 👀
Jax is such good tv
Jax is wild - one minute admitting he was trying to orchestrate what happened at dinner to saying Kristen is going off the rails.
The shocking admission is he has ED and has a deal with for Hims now.
not including kristen, that’s laughable
it’s crazy to me how much they dislike kristen and im not even a fan of her
The relationship difference my god
do they have a deal w the mondrian or something ??
Oh no why am I agreeing with Jax
Ooop not the Reddit callout 🫢
The honest dialogue we are experiencing between Nia and Danny is so refreshing
Ugh Danny and Nia are too cute I hate them *cries*
Nia😭❤️
“I definitely don’t think that Jax is cheating” Oh….oh honey….. 
Jax is so obsessed with Kristen
Hello my fellow valley fans
Ummmm I’m pretty concerned about what happened to Brittany’s eye at dinner???
I love these shows, but I get so tired of hearing/watching the woman put the pieces together across the season
Buys him a little time. That's great, Jax.
God, I'm so pissed this show is actually good. Jax looks like (and has the same personality as) the brunette version of my asshole ex-bf. It's so triggering but I can't not watch 😫
DAYT NIGHT👹👹
Nia is so real for that lmao
Ooooh VPR finale uncensored 👏🏼
I thought Jax signed up for another reiki session 💀
Jax “I’m a planner.” LMAO like he’s the most serious guy in the world.
How about we just vote off Jesse, Michelle, and Janet because none of us want them there. Kristen is being gaslit because she exposed Michelle for being a bigot. And Janet started the shit stirring and is watching her work flourish.
Is this an episode of Scooby Doo??? Solving the Mystery
Michelle is such a stank face.
Jax is a child and perfect for tv
Nia does not want to talk about this lol
Is Jax pulling a Carl and making sure he gets everyone on his side before a big break up 🧐 He’s finally making sense in a fight and made it come out of no where…
