Jax Taylor is still wondering if cheating led to Michelle Lally and Jesse Lally breaking up. He's now involving other celebrities from The Valley in his investigation.

In a preview of the upcoming episode, Jax sits down with Jasmine Goode to talk about the problems he's seen between Michelle and Jesse.

Jax shared with me during our visit to the carnival that he doubted his marriage would last another two months. He mentioned that Jesse also expressed similar concerns about the state of his own marriage as they were leaving the fair.

After their outing, Janet Caperna inquired about their conversation. Jasmine chose not to disclose the details, feeling uneasy about sharing. In a flashback, Jax confided in Jasmine that Michelle was communicating with other men.

"Jax tries to act like he's not messy, but he actually is. He subtly shares information and wants you to feel like he's just casually mentioning it. Jasmine believes that he wants you to think, 'Isn't this crazy? But you should do something about it.' On the other hand, Janet is also messy. Jasmine thinks deep down she probably finds it fun."

Jax believes that the rumor about Michelle's alleged infidelity is what Kristen Doute was talking about in another episode when she mentioned wanting to protect her friend.

Jax recalls a conversation with Kristen about Michelle, expressing concern about Kristen potentially revealing something. Jesse and Michelle, who were married for six years and had a daughter named Isabella, joined The Valley. It was revealed in March that the couple separated after filming, and fans have begun to notice hints on the Vanderpump Rules spinoff series.

During the show on Tuesday, April 16, Jax caused some drama by bringing up Michelle's friendship with a director, whose name he did not mention.

According to Jax, Michelle often says she doesn't know famous people, but he claimed she was actually spending a lot of time with this director. They met at the Château Marmont, and Jax found it strange that they were hanging out together for several days in a row. He questioned whether this was unusual behavior.

Jesse, on the other hand, didn't seem too bothered by the comments. In fact, he joked about the situation, saying, "She was with him for the entire night, they got wrecked. They had dinner the other night with a famous actor. I told her to hike up her skirt and drop her blouse down. Whatever you had to do."

During a confessional, Kristen's boyfriend, Luke Broderick, suggested that he knew some information about Jesse and Michelle's relationship that he couldn't share publicly. This has left viewers wondering if he was talking about the same details that Kristen was keeping quiet about out of respect for Michelle.

Jesse told Luke that if Michelle cheated on him, he wouldn't be able to forgive her. He believes that trust is essential in a relationship, and if she betrayed that trust, it would be a dealbreaker. Jesse mentioned that he would be able to forgive other mistakes, but cheating is the one thing he cannot overlook. He emphasized that he trusts Michelle to make the right decisions and hopes she wouldn't do anything to jeopardize their relationship.

The upcoming episode's trailer revealed a group outing with the cast that turned sour when Jesse seemed to threaten Kristen and Luke.

Jesse sternly warned his fellow cast members, "If you reveal any secrets about my wife that I don't already know, I will seriously confront you."

The Valley airs on Bravo Tuesdays at 9 p.m. ET and is available to stream on Peacock the next day.
