The Valley star Zack Wickham took to his Instagram page on Tuesday, where he reacted to a recent post shared by Lala Kent.
After the 35-year-old Vanderpump Rules alum posted a series of images of herself and Michelle Saniei, 37, giving a nod to Kyle Richards‘ revelation that she “could go Brad, or [she] could go Angelina,” which many believed confirmed her rumored bisexuality, Zack, 37, mocked the slideshow with images of himself and Jesse Lally, 45.
“I go Brad, he goes Angelina. No queerbaiting here,” Zack wrote in the caption of his February 3 post, which included him and Jesse engaged in a loving embrace, posing in the shower, and spending time with one another on the beach.

Days prior, on January 26, Lala shared similar images of herself and Michelle.
“I could go Brad, I could go Angelina,” she declared in the caption of her slideshow, which featured a racy image of her and Michelle posing naked in the shower, standing on a beach, and looking cozy on a boat.
Following the sharing of Lala’s post, many wondered if it was a hard launch for potential romance with Michelle.
“Hard launch? Let’s goooo,” one person wrote.
“If this is a hard launch, then I’m here for it!” proclaimed another.
“Now this would be the couple of the decade!” said a third.
“Is this an announcement? I’m here for it,” someone else agreed.
But others felt the post was a case of queerbaiting.
“I hope this isn’t queerbaiting,” one IG user stated.
Meanwhile, in the comments section of Zack’s post, another person said that “someone had to do it” in regard to his calling out of Lala as others encouraged him to “get ’em.”
Zack’s bisexual castmate, Jasmine Goode, 38, also weighed in, describing his post as “petty with a purpose,” as did Scheana Shay, 40, who posted a series of skull emojis.
The Valley season three is expected to premiere on Bravo sometime early this year.
