'The Valley' couple Jesse Lally and Michelle Saniei Lally have gone their separate ways after six years of marriage.
Us Weekly confirmed the separation.
The couple hasn't commented on the breakup, but they decided not to walk the red carpet together at the premiere of 'The Valley' at Jax Taylor Bar in Studio City on Thursday.
This news comes just weeks after Jax and Brittany Cartwright announced their separation.
Brittany said: “A lot of people have asked me about Jax and me and our relationship. “We have shared so much of our lives with you that we feel it is important to be truthful and honest with you.”

Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright Separate

Alluding to their marriage, Cartwright went on to say: “In my last podcast, I mentioned that many marriages go through difficult times. Yes, marriages in general are very difficult and this past year has been a particularly difficult one. Jax and I have been spending time apart and have decided to move to another house to make space for our mental health.”
The couple are parents to son Cruz (2).
Separation “is still a very difficult thing to talk about,” Brittany noted. “I break up with each other once a day. “I don’t know what the future holds, but right now I’m focused on being the best mom I can be to Cruz.”
Jax also shut down rumors that their separation was caused by cheating.
After Katie Maloney and Scheana Shay claimed she was “going around town,” he said on the “Vanderpump Rules After Show” Tuesday, “Katie just likes to hit the ground running.” That's what she does. She'll be hanging out at home and find something on her phone on Reddit and start spreading the word. That's what she does. She’s spreading all kinds of shit.”
Jax had everyone talking after he was photographed smiling at a woman at a nightclub in Atlantic City back in June.
“I worked in Atlantic City,” he said. The lady who hired me takes pictures with everyone. Any kind of celebrity will get their picture taken with the guy who runs the place. “That’s normal.”
Britney removed Jax's name, saying, “We went and found all the photos.” [and] I figured it out. She had a woman she worked with, she was the bar owner's wife or something there. And her husband was there too.”
