Michelle’s daughter Isabella was also the one who introduced her to her current boyfriend and immediately clicked. “They had a little interaction from far away and I didn’t see it,” Michelle recalled as the mother-daughter duo were leaving a coffee shop. “And then I got my coffee and then left, and Aaron and I actually didn’t speak. And then it must’ve been maybe a couple of days or a week later, he saw us again and then it was kind of the same thing. So, Isabella was actually the introduction and it was just very natural.”
As for what her daughter thinks of him, Michelle said, “Isabella loves him. He’s great with children and with Isabella, and I couldn’t ask for anything more right now.”
Aaron is currently getting close to the rest of The Valley’s cast and is taking pictures with them and their kids on Instagram. Some fans on Reddit were outspoken about the situation. One fan wrote, “Yeah posing with kid is definitely not sitting right with me. If this is the approach. Jesse’s gonna be in for a rough season.
Did Michelle cheat on Jesse on The Valley?
Michelle hasn’t responded to the rumors that she cheated on Jesse, but some things came to light about her texting habits in the latest season of The Valley.
Jax told Jasmine that Kristen had said Michelle was “texting other men.” “From what Michelle told me, she was texting with someone who was not Jesse,” Kristen told producers. “She had, I guess, an emotional affair with this guy.”
Jax Taylor went on to talk about the guy’s profession, but not reveal his identity. “Michelle always claims she doesn’t know who famous people are. But she was going on with that director; she was going out with him for a couple of days straight. She goes to the Château Marmont every day from her house and she happened to meet him at the pool, and they get along.”
The most popular theory of the director’s identity is Quentin Tarantino. During Episode 5, Jax joked that Michelle and the unnamed director were spending time together. “Michelle is hanging out with [redacted] right now. So that’s an opportune time,” Jax said, to which co-star Jason Caperna responded, “Is [redacted] in Malibu right now? What’s going on with that?” While The Valley bleeped out the director’s name, fans who can lip-read claim that both Jax and Jason said Tarantino.
