Michelle Lally Explains Why It Took So Long To File For Divorce

Michelle Lally recently revealed why she waited so long to file for a divorce. Fans are curious about what made her wait after seeing how miserable she is in The Valley. Michelle seems to be happier than ever and even has a new man. It was apparent Jesse Lally did not want the divorce and wanted to continue trying, but Michelle was done.

Michelle Lally And Her New Relationship

Michelle Lally is currently in a new relationship and seems to be happy.

“… I do now have a boyfriend and I’m really happy about that. We are very much aligned. I feel like instantly when I met him, we aligned with each other. We have the same values, hobbies, and it has been very easy; we don’t fight and I’m just so happy all the time. I am the complete opposite; I can’t keep my hands off him. I am like, ‘Who am I?’”

Hearing this, fans know that this is completely different than how she was with Jesse.

Why It Took So Long For Her To File

Michelle Lally revealed why it took her so long to file for divorce.

“We filmed [The Valley] last summer and we finished filming in September [2023], I had the conversation with Jesse at the beginning of October that it was no longer going to work and I wanted to file for divorce. Jesse and I have actually not been together since October and since then we were free to date and do whatever we want. I am more permanent. I have filed for divorce and it is happening. We are in the middle of it and hopefully, before the end of the year, it will be finalized. As of now, we don’t have to go to court because we are essentially in agreement with almost everything. Hopefully, we won’t need to and we will be done. My goal is to be done and move on with my life. That is why I was like, ‘We need to file as soon as possible.’ It was a little tricky with the show because it was going to be announced and we didn’t know how to handle it. It was a little back and forth when we would file.”

It appears they waited so long because they did not know when the right time would be with the show coming out. However, they ended up doing it before anyway. Viewers went into the show knowing the two were going to end up getting a divorce. Fans watched their marriage fall apart and now they are getting a first look at Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright’s marriage failing as well.

It seems that the only reason it took so long for them to file for divorce was due to the show. They did not know the right time and how to go about the situation. However, fans could tell that Michelle was done with her relationship from the beginning. Now she seems to be happy in her new relationship and is exploring a different feeling.
