Marciano Brunette Opens Up About the Status of His Relationship with Hannah Fouch Post 'Vanderpump Villa' Experience (Exclusive)

Marciano Brunette shared an update on his relationship with Hannah Fouch, and it's not going well.

"The show actually improved our relationship a lot because we weren't talking at all before going on the show," Marciano, 31, told We exclusively. "Even when Lisa Vanderpump suggested bringing another girl on and I recommended Hannah, I wasn't sure if it was a good idea or not."

Marciano remembered feeling uncertain about collaborating with Hannah, who is 28 years old, on Vanderpump Villa. He shared, "Even before we arrived in France, I had my doubts about her involvement. I wasn't sure how things would turn out."

The reality star revealed that problems began to arise once the cameras were turned off.

"After the initial excitement of the show died down, we entered a honeymoon phase where we were in a great place together. But after that settled, we experienced some ups and downs," he remembered. "Overall, we have a good relationship. We still work together and communicate well."

Hulu viewers got a similar vague response on the Monday, May 20, reunion special for Vanderpump Villa.

Hannah expressed that they were no longer in the honeymoon stage and acknowledged that their relationship was a work in progress. She got emotional while sharing, "I do love him and a lot of people don't understand that."

When Lisa inquired about the status of her relationship with Marciano, Hannah confirmed that they had broken up. Marciano clarified that he did not cheat on Hannah and that was not the reason for their current separation.

It was tough for us to return to reality because things didn't go as smoothly as we had hoped. He quickly dismissed any accusations of cheating from his Vanderpump Villa colleagues.

Marciano and Hannah showed solidarity at the reunion despite announcing their breakup. They sat side by side and stood up for each other when confronted by their former colleagues.

Marciano and Hannah were the center of attention before the reunion, with fans drawing comparisons between their relationship and that of Jax Taylor and Stassi Schroeder from earlier seasons of Vanderpump Rules. (Jax and Stassi had an on-and-off relationship before eventually breaking up.)

Marciano clarified to Us that despite any similarities, he and the others are actually quite different. He emphasized that he is not like Jax, and while he doesn't have anything negative to say about him, he admitted to not knowing Stassi. However, he has crossed paths with Jax.

He also touched on the topic of whether his relationship highs and lows with Hannah were accurately portrayed on screen.

"Our relationship can be interpreted in many different ways. On the show, you can see a lot, but there's more to it off-camera. The show only captures a glimpse of our ups and downs. We've faced challenges that weren't shown, but there have also been good times that were highlighted."

Despite Marciano's efforts to reconcile with Hannah in season 1, their costars were not supportive. During the Vanderpump Villa reunion, which aired with the finale on Monday, everyone shared their issues with Marciano and Hannah.

The reunion was a truly eye-opening experience for me. I thought I was ready for it, but it turned out I wasn't. Everything happened so quickly, and I found myself struggling to control my emotions. It was challenging because there was so much going on, and it felt like many people had things they wanted to say to me. I felt like I was constantly in defense mode, trying to piece things together and make sense of it all. It was a tough situation to navigate, but I did my best to express my thoughts and feelings.

Marciano shared that he was eager to see how the Hulu special would be edited.

I had a great experience with it. I believe it was beneficial for the entire group too. It raised many questions, but hopefully, it also provided a better understanding of the rest of the group that wasn't fully visible," he playfully mentioned. "Since not everyone is always in view, it will be interesting to see how it unfolds.

All episodes of Vanderpump Villa, including the reunion, can be streamed on Hulu.
