While Scheana Shay is not currently on Bravo, she recently opened up on a slew of Bravo topics on a recent podcast.
One of the topics she discussed was Tom Sandoval’s relationship drama with his ex Victoria Lee Robinson, plus Lisa Vanderpump recently revealing Scheana is banned from her new Las Vegas hotel.
As those following the fallout of their relationship know, Tom took out a restraining order against Victoria and her father, while she accused him of abuse.
”I have not spoken to him,” Scheana, 41, said of Tom on her Scheananigans With Scheana podcast. “I will not be speaking to him.”
As far as Tom’s relationship with Victoria, Scheana claimed it was “toxic from the start.”
”And people close to him had told me that,” she continued. “We all saw what happened at Bravo Con. So yeah, I can’t say I’m surprised because I did feel like that relationship was doomed from the beginning.”
When it comes to Lisa, Scheana suggests Lisa’s a “pick me” who loves giving controversial men multiple chances while holding women to a different standard. ‘Pick me’ is a slang used to describe women who are male identified and sometimes misogynistic towards other women.
“I would say as a recovering pick me, I recognize pick me behavior when I see it,” shared Scheana. “I’ve always found it interesting that certain men can seem to get like endless chances with her. And you know, it’s like no matter what happens, they’re just welcomed back into the fold.”
She continued, “They’re defended. They’re given another opportunity. Meanwhile, the women are held to a completely different standard. And the grace doesn’t always seem to flow equally. I will say, I don’t know what it is that motivates that, whether it’s believing that those guys are just easier to keep close, easier to influence nowadays. I don’t know.”
She added, “I am perfectly fine being outside of the circle. So, it’s like, I mean, you guys look at the guest list. For me, that just says it all.”
Scheana hasn’t been on The Valley since season two, when she made an appearance, but she did broach the topic of being on season four.
“Look, I don’t know if that’s in the cards for me,” she claimed. “These are pretty much all my friends, you know, for the most part. So I would never say that door is completely closed.”
”You know, who knows what the future holds?” she elaborated. “I just don’t know if that is what is right for me still.”
She did admit she does see herself going back to reality television.
“I love the platform that reality TV provides,” she said. “You know, when it’s being used to tell authentic stories, I absolutely love that. When it’s being used to talk about real life, lived experiences, postpartum, maternal mental health, all of those things. It’s like the reach that reality TV has and the reach that I know I’ve had with people, especially in the OCD community and whatnot, that just, there’s nothing else like it.”
”I think, no matter what show, eventually I will be back on reality TV,” she added, “because having people come up to me, telling me that sharing my story helps them recognize that they had those symptoms and got diagnosed and got the help they need… it’s incredible.”
While Scheana used to be close with Lala Kent, they haven’t been close since a falling out in August 2025.
On the podcast, Scheana noted her “experience” with Lala is not what Lala claims to be – namely, Scheana hasn’t always found Lala to be 100% accountable.
“If that had been my experience with her, we would still be friends,” she added.
One other hot topic Scheana addressed was publicity photos of Jax Taylor and Lori Krebs, his publicist, which recently surfaced.
The pics showed the pair embracing and being seemingly close.
“What the f*ck?” Scheana said in reaction to the photos.
“Dude, I knew she was a f*cking snake years ago,” she later stated. “You can’t tell me that s*it wasn’t going on back then. Oh my god, disgusting.”
She noted that Jax and Lori “deserve each other.”
”That is such a f*cking betrayal,” she elaborated. “It is so disgusting. I mean Brittany [Cartwright] was so close with this woman for so long. I honestly, I don’t even want to speak on that much more because that’s for Brittany.”
