Where Is the Cast of The Valley Season 1 Now?
Catch up with Jax, Brittany, Kristen, and the rest of the gang, and see why one cast member said things were "very tough these days."
Though fans might still be recovering from The Valley’s wild Season 1 finale, the cast shows no signs of slowing down with their busy schedules — and the relationship drama.
Audiences who can’t get enough of the Los Angeles-based neighbors won’t have to look far to catch up because the former Vanderpump Rules cast members and their friends are spending plenty of time in the spotlight, and a second season is already in the works. Still, here are all the details on where the cast is now, including relationship and friendship statuses.
Where is Jax Taylor now?
Since Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright’s decision to separate, Jax has been publicly spotted with model Paige Woolen, sparking romance rumors, despite him telling The Daily Dish that he’d never date again.
“I am not dating anyone, and I wish you all knew the full story of this situation,” Jax said in a May 30, 2024 post on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter. “It’s not what you think.”
Here’s what you may have missed on Bravo:
Brittany Insists Divorce is Now On the Table for Her and Jax: "We Would Go Down That Path"
Scheana Condemns Jax's 'Monstrous' Treatment of Brittany as The Valley Cast Defends Him
Michelle Lally Tearfully Admits There's "Nothing" Jesse Could Do to Make Her "Attracted to Him"
The Jax’s Studio City bar owner — who hopes to be “the next Lisa Vanderpump” by launching a restaurant empire — continues to host his and Brittany’s shared podcast, When Reality Hits with Jax and Brittany.
On Instagram, Jax thanked Us Weekly for publishing a “day in the life”-style profile which captured Jax spending quality time with his 3-year-old son, Cruz Michael Cauchi, high-intensity interval training at the gym, “quick Botox touch-ups,” and juggling several businesses.
“I know my life isn’t the most exciting, but these things are the things that make me happy and my mind at ease, which is very tough these days,” Jax wrote.
Where is Brittany Cartwright now?
Brittany’s focus continues to be co-parenting her and Jax’s toddler son, as seen in a “dose of cuteness” post recently shared by Brittany on her Instagram page.
Since splitting from Jax after four years of marriage, she has been staying at an Airbnb (or multiple Airbnbs, according to her BFF Zack Wickham). However, Jax said on the May 31, 2024 episode of their podcast that Brittany “got a place down the street” (not the aforementioned Airbnb) while he remains in their once-shared home.
He added that his estranged wife “does really well for herself.”
Brittany recently became the object of Lala Kent’s ire at the Vanderpump Rules Season 11 reunion when Lala called her “Kentucky muffin” and accused her of questioning Lala’s mother over a babysitting snafu.
On June 1, 2024, Brittany was spotted out in L.A. without her wedding ring, according to PEOPLE.
Where is Kristen Doute now?
Kristen Doute is still kicking it with her castmates, as seen in a May 24, 2024 Instagram post which showed her alongside Brittany, Zack, and Nia Booko. She also showed face at the Something About Her sandwich shop opening with owners and former costars Ariana Madix and Katie Maloney.
Kristen and her boyfriend, Luke Broderick, discussed their dream of conceiving a child on The Valley. However, since filming wrapped, Kristen admitted on the November 26, 2024 episode of her and Luke’s shared podcast, Balancing Act (formally known as Sex, Love, and What Else Matters), that she experienced a “terrifying” miscarriage.
The James Mae T-shirt designer and Luke are still going strong, and her friendship with Zack is also on a great track. The friends were spotted in their best colors for Pride month.
In May 2024, Kristen starred in the debut season of The GOAT, alongside The Real Housewives of New York City alum Jill Zarin.
Where is Luke Broderick now?
It’s not quite clear if Kristen’s latest boyfriend decided to make California his permanent residence, but if Luke’s Instagram is any indication, it looks like it’s very possible.
The Colorado outdoorsman published a May 8, 2024 video of him living it up on the Switzer Falls Trail in Los Angeles County. A series of photos boasted scenic views, plenty of wildlife, and even some spectacular waterfalls.
Earlier that month, he was promoting Kristen ahead of The GOAT premiere.
Luke and Kristen continue to host Balancing Act, which features others from the Bravosphere. Vanderpump Rules’ Tom Schwartz and Shahs of Sunset’s Reza Farahan were just a few of their recent guests.
Where is Michelle Saniei Lally now?
Since Michelle Saniei Lally and Jesse Lally called it quits ahead of The Valley premiere, she is putting their 4-year-old daughter, Isabella Bunny Lally, first. In late May, she posted adorable photos of Isabella at the hospital after undergoing a tonsil removal.
“I’m so proud of my daughter for being the best patient today with her minor surgery,” said the real estate agent. “I love you so much!”
It looks like things are going well between Michelle and her “serious” new boyfriend, financial advisor Aaron Nosler, as well. Michelle said in a Q&A that their meeting was a “funny story” after Isabella waved to the then-stranger at a coffee shop.
Aaron has posted several photos highlighting their relationship in recent weeks.
Where is Jesse Lally now?
Like Michelle, Jesse also seems to have found himself in the arms of another.
The real estate agent and once-aspiring model announced he was in a romantic relationship with socialite Lacy Nicole as divorce proceedings continue.
“I’m super happy,” he said on the April 27, 2024 episode of Page Six’s Virtual Reali-Tea podcast. “We’ve been great friends. We newly started dating. She’s just a very amazing person and a beautiful soul.”
The pair recently had an eventful time in New York City, restaurant hopping and sharing smooches for Jesse’s birthday month, as seen on Jesse’s Instagram page. While in the Big Apple, he was sure to stop in for an episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.
He is still big on daddy-daughter days, as both he and Michelle co-parent Isabella.
Where is Nia Booko now?
Bravo newcomer and former Miss USA Nia Booko is keeping busy as she juggles life with infant twins Isabelle Marie and Zariah Rose, and 2-year-old Asher Booko. On Monday, June 3, 2024, she posted an Instagram Story following a “coffee date” as she planned the twins’ birthday party, something she mentioned in a separate post from May 27, 2024.
“Less than a month [until] these angels turn 1! I’m a ball of emotions thinking about how fast they are growing up. Can time please stop? Not even slow down. Just stop for a moment,” the mom posted alongside adorable pics of the girls. “I’d even go back to when they were smaller. These early years are so precious, and I find myself nostalgic in present time for the moments I am experiencing.”
She and Danny Booko recently celebrated the girls’ dedication to the church.
Where is Danny Booko now?
Super-dad Danny also continues to dote on his children, and it looks like at least some of them might be following in their father’s acting footsteps. Danny and Nia recently snapped a shot next to acting legend Harrison Ford after Zariah and Isabelle snagged a role on Shrinking, starring Ford and comedian Jason Segel.
“The girls had an epic week filming with this legend!” Danny posted. “Harrison Ford could not have been more kind.”
In mid-May, the fam enjoyed a trip to Universal Studios Hollywood, where they even got to see advertising for The Valley.
Where is Janet Caperna now?
As seen in The Valley season finale, Janet Caperna and Jason Caperna are the proud parents of their first child, a son, Cameron Caperna. Days before the finale aired, she shared an adorable photo of Cameron curled on the bed along with an adorable anecdote.
“Our sweet son sleeping under dream catchers I bought in 2019 in Tulum — the same trip where I had too many coronitas and DM’d Jason that he should ask me on a date,” the new mother reminisced. “Grateful for little moments like this. Life is but a dream.”
Janet has also posted several fun photos of mommy-baby outings onto her Instagram Stories since the child’s birth. She continues to make time for her fellow Bravolebrities, including recent charity events with Brittany and Lala Kent.
Where is Jason Caperna now?
Janet’s attorney husband also loves parenthood, as evidenced in a series of photos he devoted to his ever-growing family on Mother’s Day.
“Happy first Mother’s Day to the greatest partner I could have ever imagined. You do so much for us. You sacrifice so much for us. You do it all with a smile,” Jason told his wife. “I love you more than I thought was possible, and although he can’t talk, the way our son’s face lights up whenever you walk into the room is proof that he feels the same way.”
He recently told The Daily Dish he had “no regrets” about excluding Kristen from the couple’s Babymoon.
Where is Zack Wickham now?
Zack Wickham went big with this year’s Pride month celebration, so much so that Bravo commented on his Instagram post: “You ate that!” The mediator of the group was covered head-to-toe in rainbow at the WeHo Pride parade with his allies from Bravo and NBCUniversal. He even jumped behind the bar with Tom Schwartz.
There’s no word yet on what he’s done with his now-infamous hair, but in his Pride photos, he wore a backward cap, and what hair protruded from the front was colored silver.
He was also spotted late last month with his friends Kristen, Nia, and Brittany in Studio City, L.A., living his best life.
Where is Jasmine Goode now?
Jasmine Goode served denim and cowgirl boots at the Stagecoach Festival in May — where Kristen and Luke were also spotted locking lips. It’s unclear whether Kristen and the former SURver met while there, but Jasmine did catch up with some members of the Vanderpump Rules cast, including Scheana Shay, Brock Davies, and James Kennedy.
Things between Jasmine and her partner, Melissa Marie appear sturdy. The former NFL cheerleader was left “speechless” by Melissa in a recent video, frolicking through the sunflowers.
Fans can expect to see more when Season 2 of The Valley premieres at a later date.
Until then, catch up on Season 1 of The Valley on Bravo and Peacock, and don't miss the uncensored and extended season finale dropping Wednesday, June 5, 2024, exclusively on the streaming platform.
