Michelle Lally Reached Out to Kristen Doute After a Certain Confessional Aired: “Felt Bad”
"I wanted to call to just apologize for that comment," Michelle Saniei Lally admitted.
Michelle Saniei Lally is eating her words about Kristen Doute.
After reviewing episodes from The Valley, Michelle admitted that she reached out to Kristen because she made a “negative comment about her."
“When I rewatched that, I felt awful,” Michelle said in an interview with The Daily Dish.

The moment Michelle is referring to happens in Season 1, Episode 5 of The Valley, airing Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
Kristen had told producers she took a pregnancy test that “was negative. But it’s way too early to know,” she said. “I still might be pregnant.”
Michelle’s short response immediately followed: “Please don’t have a kid, because we don’t need more of you around," she said in a confessional.

Michelle has been on the outs with Kristen, who made veiled comments about “protecting” a secret of Michelle's. She then alleged to producers while leaving a party that Michelle “had a f-cking boyfriend for a year,” despite being married at the time.
Michelle and Jesse are now broken up and seeing other people.
Asked by The Daily Dish where she and Kristen stand today, Michelle said they "are not talking.” That’s been the case since Season 1 wrapped production.
“I have never spoken to her after filming,” said Michelle, adding that she did make one attempt to communicate, though.
Michelle realized when she watched Episode 5 “where I make a negative comment about her, you know, not having a child … I felt awful.”
She made the jab out of anger and now regrets it.
“I didn't truly mean that, I was just very angry with all the things that she did to me,” she said. "It was just a moment of weakness.”
In hindsight, Michelle admitted that her words shocked even her.
“So I actually called her that night because I wanted to call to just apologize for that comment,” Michelle continued. “Because I should have never said anything like that.”
However, Kristen never responded.
“She did not call me back,” said Michelle. “So I never had the opportunity to apologize for that.”
And while Michelle has been at events Kristen was at, they’ve not broken their silence.
“I have seen her at parties and stuff, but we do not say hello to each other,” said Michelle. She added that she has a text message "chat with all the girls on the show,” and Kristen is not in it.
Make sure to catch up with The Valley, airing Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo. It streams next day on Peacock.
