Jesse Lally Isn’t Interested in a Friendship with Luke Broderick: “I've Seen This Game"
Jesse Lally has concluded that he and Luke Broderick “don’t really have anything in common.”
It doesn't look like Jesse Lally and Kristen Doute's boyfriend, Luke Broderick, will ever be friends.
Jesse and Luke have clashed so far on Season 1 of The Valley, airing Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo. It seems that tense relationship continued after filming, according to Jesse.
Are Jesse Lally and Luke Broderick friends now?
“Luke has tried to be very cordial with me,” Jesse told The Daily Dish. “But, yeah, there’s a couple things that he said where I’m like, hmmm.”
“I’ve seen this game before,” Jesse added.
If you ask Jesse, the drama between him, Luke, and Kristen, “hasn’t ended.”
In fact, Jesse, a luxury real estate broker in Los Angeles, said that he gets the impression that Luke has been trying to “plant seeds that Kristen must have given him.”
Shortly before the premiere of The Valley, news broke that Jesse and his wife, Michelle Saniei Lally, were divorcing. The drama of the duo’s breakup, which has been playing on in the series, has been exacerbated by Kristen’s comments and actions.

After voicing veiled comments about “protecting” Michelle, Kristen alleged to producers while leaving a party that Michelle “had a f-cking boyfriend for a year,” despite being married to Jesse.
The truth eventually emerged — and today Jesse and Michelle are seeing other people.
Luke, a dutiful boyfriend, defended Kristen during Season 1, but he got to a point where he confronted Kristen about misrepresenting facts and lying.
Jesse acknowledged that Luke “has tried to be very cordial … he’s trying. A lot of the conversations [we have] are usually kind of show-related.”
But at the end of the day, Jesse said that he and Luke, an outdoorsman from Colorado, “don’t really have anything in common.”
Jesse added that Luke “is not in the boys’ chat” the other castmates are in. “Very hard to get into that one,” he said.
Beyond Luke, Jesse said he has “no relationship with Kristen right now. We spend a lot of time at Jax’s bar, especially for viewing parties. We’re usually there together. But we have no relationship, we don’t speak.”
The Valley airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo and streams next day on Peacock.
