Michelle Saniei spoke of her split from Aaron Nosler and her divorce from Jesse Lally while attending BravoCon over the weekend.
As she also shared her thoughts on Lala Kent, 35, joining The Valley full-time and addressed Scheana Shay‘s decision not to film, Michelle, 37, explained why she and Aaron called it quits, said it was “amazing” to finally be divorced from Jesse, 45, and admitted she’s “ready” to date.
“I lived on my own for a year. I moved in with him, and we just realized quickly that you know, he was just not ready for my situation with a child, and it was just better to be apart,” Michelle revealed of her split from Aaron in a clip from a panel shared by The Reality Ashley on Instagram.
Jesse weighed in as well, joking, “The honey wasn’t sweet enough anymore.”
During an interview with Access Hollywood’s Housewives Nightcap, Michelle reflected on the end of her and Jesse’s marriage.
“I can’t believe I can finally say the words. I’m divorced. It feels amazing. I’m so looking forward to the future and just putting myself out there for people,” she stated. “I am ready [to date].”
When asked about Lala joining The Valley for season three, Michelle said it was “the best thing that could’ve happened.”
“She was my best friend. She’s like my ride or die now, and I couldn’t be happier,” she noted.
As for Scheana leaving the series after previously making guest appearances, Michelle admitted it was “hard.”
“For me, it’s hard because I’m close with everybody. Scheana, I’m very close to. It was a kind of [a] last minute situation, but I think she did what was best for her at the time,” she explained.
Then, speaking of what fans can expect from season three, Michelle said there would be more personal stories about each cast member.
“I think they’ll get to learn a lot more about each one of us and learn our background and our stories, and I think it’s a really happy and wonderful season overall,” she teased.
The Valley season three is expected to premiere on Bravo sometime early next year.
