Andy Cohen addressed Michelle Saniei‘s last-chair status at The Valley reunion, and he revealed his conversation with Janet Caperna. The 56-year-old also claimed Jax Taylor’s face has changed since he got sober from cocaine, and he hinted at “dark stuff” at the reunion.
In the new season, Michelle’s divorce from Jesse Lally is one of the biggest storylines. On a recent episode, the exes fought over whether to put their daughter in a school in Orange County, where Jesse’s girlfriend lives. He later texted a rumor that Michelle allegedly slept with a billionaire for $1,500 a night.
As for Jax, he’s now feuding with his estranged wife, Brittany Cartwright, who strongly encouraged him to go to rehab. Since the season aired, Jax opened up about his alcoholism and cocaine addiction.
On his SiriusXM show, Andy Cohen Live, Andy addressed the recently filmed reunion.
“There was some dark stuff,” he said, via @vanderpumprulesparty on Instagram. “I will say, Jax’s face has come back … I was like, oh, your face looks healthier, because he look[ed] so tweaked out … during the season.”
Andy then shared his conversation with Janet.
“Janet was like, ‘I saw you [went] out to dinner with the Summer House guys after that reunion. Like, are you like going out to dinner with this group after the reunion?'” Andy recalled. “[I was] like, ‘No.'”
According to Andy, the difference is that he ate with the Summer House guys at a restaurant in his neighborhood in Manhattan.
“They were basically on my block,” said Andy, who shared that after The Valley reunion, he needed to return to New York.
The host also addressed fans questioning why Michelle was seated in the last chair at the reunion.
“[It means] nothing,” he said. “It just means she was in the last chair. I mean, there’s only so many chairs.”
According to the seating chart shared by Bravo TV on Instagram, Michelle and Zack Wickham were placed in the last chairs, though her husband Jesse was in the second seat. Brittany and Jax were placed right next to Andy.
New episodes of The Valley air on Tuesday nights on Bravo.
