Michelle Lally confirmed she’s seeing someone new amid her separation from Jesse Lally, and fans believe they’ve identified the mystery man.
The Valley star – who opened up about her marital difficulties on the show – also addressed rumors that she had an affair with a famous director.
In an April 20 Instagram Q&A, Michelle confirmed her new romance.
“Someone amazing,” she said. “I like our little privacy for the moment.”
In another post, Michelle revealed that she “moved” from the home she shared with her husband, and she addressed if they could possibly reconcile.
“No. My only goal is to be friends one day,” said the star, and she then referred to their real estate business. “Yes, we will continue working together with past clients. But moving forward, I will have my own clients and vice versa.”
Soon after the post about her new romance, fans spotted her friend Brittany Cartwright’s Instagram video of a group hangout. In the footage, Michelle sat close to a man named Aaron Nosler – a financial advisor who has posed with her recently in other posts, per Us Weekly.
In her Q&A, Michelle addressed rewatching the end of her marriage on TV.
“I hope you all realize this. It was a very difficult time for me. Last summer was very difficult for many reasons,” said the star. “I didn’t know I looked this unhappy. But yes, some scenes have made me cry and have been rough to watch.”
“We originally talked about doing this show years ago when [our three-year-old daughter] Isabella was really young. I was unsure that the show would get picked up, and then we got the call that it went straight to series,” Michelle added. “I figured marriages are difficult and there are ups and downs and we can be authentic in showing our issues.”
She said their daughter is adjusting to all the changes.
“Isabella is incredible. It has been a great transition for her. She liked the idea of having two homes, two different beds, and toys. This has been a positive change for her,” explained Michelle, who then clarified her comment about Jesse being her longest booty call.
“I think people misunderstood me. It was supposed to be a joke, ” said Michelle. “The first time I had coffee with Jesse, I did think he talked too much and wasn’t for me. But then we went on a date, and it was very different and went smoothly. Remember, we were together for nine years, and our relationship used to be very different.”
She then discussed the rumor that she had an affair with an unidentified director.
“Absolutely not,” she stated. “Part of my job as a real estate agent is to network and build relationships. It had absolutely nothing to do with dating anyone.”
