Where The Valley Cast Stands After Season 3 (EXCLUSIVE)

By the end of The Valley Season 3 finale’s Halloween party, some friendships showed hope of being resurrected, while it seemed to be the final nail in the coffin for others.

Brittany Cartwright hosted the spooky bash for her Season 3 castmates on The Valley — including Kristen Doute, Luke Broderick, Michelle Saniei, Jesse Lally, Danny Booko, Nia Sanchez Booko, Janet Caperna, Jason Caperna, Zack Wickham, Jasmine Goode, Tom Schwartz, and Lala Kent — where drama erupted and fractures in the group deepened.

Throughout the night, almost every single cast member was involved in at least one confrontation, leaving plenty to unpack at The Valley‘s Season 3 reunion.

Read on for exclusive updates on where The Valley cast stands today, as well as details on the latest happening in their lives.

Kristen Doute and Luke Broderick’s lives after The Valley Season 3

By season’s end, Kristen clashed with Brittany after denying that she’d said Nia “guilt trips” Zack about his friendship with Janet. In an exclusive interview with Bravo Insider, Luke hinted that Kristen and Brittany are on better terms now, however. “We go to Brittany’s quite a bit,” he said while discussing where he stands with his castmates today.

“I don’t think anyone’s mad at me,” Luke added. “I see Danny, Jesse, and Tom a lot. Those are the three I see the most. I’m in good standing with everybody.”

As for Luke and Kristen’s daughter, Kaia, who turned one in June 2026, the first-time dad gushed, “She’s such an amazing, beautiful little girl. She’s about to walk. She is just the happy coos and fake cries. She’s really good at manipulating Kristen already, we’ll put it that way. She has good fake cries.”

Luke also said that he and Kristen will “100 percent” be moving in the future. “To where and when, that’s up in the air,” he explained. “We’ll do another year in the same house. We’ve actually invested a lot of money into this rental house, beyond rent, to make it feel like home. So, we’ve got at least one more year in this house.”

On Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen‘s July 22 episode, Kristen opened up about how the postpartum struggles that had previously taken a toll on her and Luke’s relationship during Season 3 have since subsided. “It was such a hard time in our life, and Kaia is now 13 months old,” she shared. “It is night and day with the way that I feel, so watching myself back is seriously an out-of-body experience.”

Professionally, Luke recently launched a YouTube channel called Unsupervised Dad and said he plans to co-host a show with Jesse. Kristen, meanwhile, continues to run her James Mae clothing brand.

Brittany Cartwright’s life after The Valley Season 3

Brittany found herself at odds with Zack, Kristen, and Nia, during the finale. Since then, Brittany hinted that she’s at least on better terms with Zack and Kristen, as she posted a photo of them hanging out together at Jasmine’s June 2026 wedding (in which she also served as a bridesmaid). Meanwhile, Brittany’s friendship with Janet appears to still be going strong, based on their social media posts.

After her brief romance with Brandon Hanson during Season 3, Brittany is currently single. “I’m focusing on myself and, you know, just having fun and loving life,” Brittany revealed on the July 3 episode of her When Reality Hits podcast. “I’ve got some crushes and stuff like that, but nothing serious yet. I don’t really need a boyfriend. We all saw how that went down for me. It was very short.”

Meanwhile, Brittany and 5-year-old son Cruz are “just two peas in a pod” nowadays. “We’re just working on his therapies and everything, and he’s doing so good,” she added. “And I’m still healing myself, but doing so much better, even from what you saw on this season. I’m in such a great place. So, I’m having fun.”

Michelle Saniei’s life after The Valley Season 3

When Jesse accused Michelle of “secretly dating” comedian Max Amini and introducing him to their 6-year-old daughter, Isabella. she was quick to shut him down. Michelle reminded her ex that they were “good,” and she wanted them to remain that way. (Michelle is no longer dating Max, however, as she confirmed her relationship with Dr. Dre in June.)

“Obviously, everybody saw us at our very worst in the middle of a divorce, which is usually the hardest for both sides,” Michelle told Bravo Insider of Jesse. “We’ve come a long way. I think there will always be some challenges and some ups and downs. But we try to always make sure that Isabella is our number one priority and we’re both really good at that.”

She continued, “There are times where he really upsets me, and we have our moments. But I make sure that I also have a boundary. I don’t communicate with him as much unless it has to be about Isabella.”

In hindsight, Michelle is “actually really thrilled” with how Season 3 went, especially after the “first two seasons were really tough” on her. Not only did she succeed in “speaking [her] truth,” but she also walked away with a new friend. “I’m really happy that Lala and I have gotten so close,” Michelle said. “We’ve really bonded in the last year, and I really consider her one of my best friends.”

Michelle’s real estate career is also “going really, really well,” and she even highlighted her recent opportunity to work with the “incredible” Jeremy Piven, of whom she was already “big fan.” She might even be listing her own home sometime soon, too. “Eventually, I would like to move into a bigger space,” Michelle added, noting her wish for a spacious backyard with a pool. “We’ll see what the future holds.”

Jesse Lally and Lacy Nicole’s lives after The Valley Season 3

Like Michelle, Jesse continues to focus on co-parenting Isabella. (On July 14, he gave his Instagram followers a behind-the-scenes look at them building a makeup table together.). Their daughter was also at top of mind when Jesse weighed in on Michelle dating Dr. Dre, during WWHL‘s July 8 episode. “Just do whatever’s best in the interest of Isabella,” he said. “Just keep her safe, secure, and just take your time this time.”

As for the future of Jesse’s relationship with Lacy, Jesse revealed in the finale that he could foresee them getting married and even having their own daughter together. Lacy, on the other hand, said that her “dream scenario” with Jesse was that their relationship would remain exactly as it was.

Reflecting on Season 3 during his interview with Andy Cohen, Jesse also addressed how Michelle and Lacy were able to not only peacefully co-exist, but even open up to each other. “I’m glad they are able to have these conversations,” he said. “It’s great to see.”

Nia Sanchez Booko and Danny Booko’s lives after The Valley Season 3

For Nia and Danny, filming Season 3 shortly after their fourth child, daughter Adelaide, was born in June 2025 exposed “friction” in their marriage. “Cameras picked up as we were living our freshly postpartum lives, and so we were showing up as we were experiencing it,” Nia explained to Bravo Insider, noting that she was navigating “postpartum depression,” at the time.

“Even though my husband and I have conflict, which happens in relationships, we love each other and we’re good,” Nia added in an update on her and Danny’s status today. “There’s moments that we don’t act in the best way that we wanna act, like we try to choose to be towards each other every day. Because we’re not perfect, we fail at it sometimes. And so, we’re good. We love each other. Life is good now.”

Post-filming, Nia and Danny also sought the help of a marriage counselor to sort through their issues. “Watching the TV show back is also like therapy,” she said. “So, we reanalyze that with our therapist and have all those conversations.” Nia added that she and her husband of 10 years have gotten “back to basics” and “pulled back into the healthier, stronger communication” that they’ve always had in the past.

Outside of working on their marriage, Nia and Danny’s four children — Asher, 4, twins Isabelle and Zariah, 3, and Adelaide, 1 — have been keeping them busy. Not only does Nia homeschool the kids, but Isabelle and Zariah are about to start filming their third season as CeeCee on Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage.

As for their standing with the friend group on The Valley, Nia and Danny both declared they were “done” with Janet, Jason, and Lala after the finale party. “There was a time that there was room for maybe some growth or stepping in a forward-moving direction, but I’m not interested anymore,” Nia said on the show. “I’ve hit my limit.”

Danny, for his part, added, “I’m a man of character and integrity, and I don’t want to be around people that bring out some of the worst in me. Done.”

Janet Caperna and Jason Caperna’s lives after The Valley Season 3

Despite their drama in The Valley‘s July 29 season finale, Janet said that she “could see being cordial with Kristen and Zack eventually,” but she was also “done” with Danny and Nia. As for where Janet stands with her castmates today, she noted in her Bravo Insider interview that she talks to Lala, Brittany, and Michelle “on a daily basis” and even keeps the trio on speed dial.

“We have a group chat and then we’re always just, like, keeping up,” Janet said. “I still don’t talk to Nia, Danny, Kristen, or Luke very much, but I wish them well.”

Janet and Jason’s marriage, meanwhile, is “really good,” she said, as they stay busy with 2-year-old son Cameron, whom she joked is now “sprinting everywhere” and keeping them both on their toes. “He’s such a happy little guy, and we’re so grateful to have him,” Janet shared. “And we’re starting right now to look at houses with Michelle to have a little bigger of a space so that we can maybe get ready for baby number two.”

For now, they’re just “having some fun” sending Zillow listings back and forth, targeting the Valley, Studio City, Sherman Oaks, and Valley Village neighborhoods. “That’s our next big step,” Jason chimed in. “The next house we get will hopefully be our house. But it’s not like a rush situation. Our son isn’t going to school yet, and she’s not pregnant with our second yet.”

In the meantime, Janet and Jason are continuing to check family vacation destinations off their travel bucket lists, while also focusing on their professional endeavors. For Janet, that includes sharing her family recipes on social media, with the goal of maybe even releasing a cookbook one day. Jason, for his part, is just trying to be the “best attorney in the United States.”

Zack Wickham and Benji Quach’s lives after The Valley Season 3

When Bravo Insider asked Zack what’s next for him and boyfriend Benji Quach, he shared, “I would say the next thing is getting our apartment furnished and molding our styles together.”

On The Valley After Show, Zack also shared an update on starting a family with Benji. “We are going to give each other the grace and the space to talk out these really life-changing but hard decisions,” he said. “I just want to make sure we’re on the same page.”

Should they decide to go that route, the couple is still considering surrogacy as well as adoption. “Benji has changed a lot of the way I see things,” Zack said. “I don’t think I ever even thought maybe there was a possibility for a full-on, like, long-term relationship until I met him.”

Following some ups and downs in his friendship with Janet, Zack admitted in the Season 3 finale, “I don’t know where we go,” and went on to call Janet “disingenuous.”

The Season 3 reunion trailer also hinted that Zack still had some issues to work through with Brittany, after his accusation that she hasn’t had his back sparked a heated exchange.

Jasmine Goode and Melissa Carelli’s lives after The Valley Season 3

As mentioned, Jasmine married Melissa Carelli on June 13 in New Jersey. Among the attendees were castmates Brittany, Kristen, Luke, Schwartz, Nia, Danny, Zack, Jesse, Janet, and Jason.

“I think I’m in an OK place with everybody,” Jasmine updated Bravo Insider before filming the reunion. “I’m seeing things and hearing things the last couple episodes where I’m like, ‘OK, I’m gonna have to make notes and talk about this at the reunion.’ But I’m trying not to worry about the drama.”

Looking ahead, Jasmine added that a baby is “hopefully in the future” for her and Melissa. But first, the couple is planning to take a honeymoon sometime later this year.

Tom Schwartz’s life after The Valley Season 3

Schwartz is continuing to “build and evolve and grow” his relationship with girlfriend Kiana Carroll, as he revealed on The Valley After Show. “I’m so in love, and I’m just so happy with her,” he gushed, sharing that they’ve met each other’s families.

While discussing what the future holds for them, Schwartz added, “Do I want to get married one more time? If the person I love, Kiana, wants to, then I would. I got one more marriage in me.”

He continued, “I hope that we can, like, move in together and build a life together. And, yeah, I don’t know, maybe have kids together, buy a house, maybe start a family. I’m laughing because I’m like, this is premature right now. I’m thinking I’m projecting like three years into the future. If we can make it through that, I think we can make it anywhere.”

On the career side of things, he continues to host his weekly podcast, Detox Retox with Tom Schwartz. 

Lala Kent’s life after The Valley Season 3

Before chaos erupted at the finale Halloween party, Lala sat down with Nia, and there seemed to be hope for their future. However, Lala’s conflict with Danny seemed to present a roadblock.

“I’m really hopeful that after this conversation, there is space for us to become friends,” Lala remarked in a confessional. “The problem is, how do you get close with someone who doesn’t get along with your husband, and your husband doesn’t really like the friend either? Like, they are a package deal. So, I don’t know where we go from here.”

In her personal life, Lala previously revealed to Bravo Insider that she’s “open to love” and would consider having a third child. In the meantime, Lala is focused on raising her two daughters, Ocean, 5, and Sosa, who turns 2 in September. She is also busy hosting three podcasts, Untraditionally Lala, Sex Unlocked, and An Unlikely Affair.
