On [Tuesday's episode of The Valley](https://www.bravotv.com/the-valley/season-1/episode-3/doubting-doute), Brittany Cartwright told [Jax Taylor](https://allabouttrh.com/category/vanderpump-rules/jax-taylor/) how girls' night went awry because of Kristen Doute. ***“Kristen starts bringing up that Janet [Caperna] told Jasmine [Goode] that Michelle was racist and a Republican and all this crap,” ***[Brittany Cartwright](https://allabouttrh.com/category/vanderpump-rules/brittany-cartwright/) recalled. ***“Then she said, ‘Actually, that is what Zach [Wickham] told me.'”*** The 41-year-old former SURver alleges that rumors were swirling around Michelle's back, saying, ***“The truth that Janet told you that Michelle is probably a Republican, so she’s probably racist? This is the s—t Janet was saying.”*** Zach and Jasmine denied Kristen's claims, while Michelle informed her husband, Jesse Lally, of the drama and allegations against her the following day. ![Kristen Doute slammed by cast of The Valley for repeating Michelle Lally ‘racist’ rumors](https://allabouttrh.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/the-valley-cast-slams-kristen-doute-1200x763.png)Kristen Doute slammed by cast of The Valley for repeating Michelle Lally ‘racist’ rumors ***“I’m still shocked to be honest with you. Like completely shocked,”*** she shared. ***“I’m really upset because Janet wouldn’t say that or else she wouldn’t be my friend. I’m the one who is first-generation Mexican and Persian. I’m just so shocked and confused by the whole thing.”*** After some convincing from her husband, Michelle calls Janet, who denies Kristen's version of events. ***“OK, that’s complete bulls—t. To throw around a huge accusation like that. I need to have a conversation with her because that makes me furious with her,”*** Janet noted. ***"That word and your name has never come out of my mouth in the same sentence. This is a whole new low even for Kristen.”*** In her confessional, Janet opens up about her issues with Kristen, saying, ***“Kristen and I have been close for years. About a year ago, I had to put up a boundary with Kristen because her relationship with Alex [Menache] was so up and down that it was making my head spin. As soon as I put up a boundary with Kristen, she didn’t like that.”*** ***“It feels like any opportunity she has to throw me under the bus, she does,”*** she told the cameras. ***“To wait until her sick pregnant friend isn’t around to throw around a huge accusation like that. F—k her.”*** Janet believes that Kristen's comments are connected to Jax's decision to invite her ex-boyfriend Alex to guys' night with her now boyfriend, Luke Broderick. ***“As soon as she heard the guys were with Alex without her, she pulled something insane out of her ass,” ***Janet continued. ***“I feel like you and I are both collateral damage in that. That’s really not cool. That really upsets me.”*** ![Cast of The Valley discuss the drama within their friend group](https://allabouttrh.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/the-valley-cast.jpeg)Cast of The Valley discuss the drama within their friend group Michelle then admits that she has regrets about how she handled the situation with Kristen: ***“I was overwhelmed, and I didn’t say anything, and I’m mad at myself for not saying anything.”*** *[The Valley](https://allabouttrh.com/category/the-valley/)* star explains her history with Kristen and why she didn't expect these kinds of allegations to come from her of all people. ***“I have known Kristen for a couple of years. She had problems and broke up with her ex-boyfriend. I had problems with Jesse,” ***Michelle told the cameras. ***“We were there for each other. So Kristen’s one of my closest friends. I know a lot of people who do not like Kristen and are not nice to her. I have been her friend, and this is how she repays me?”*** *The Valley* airs on Bravo Tuesdays at 9 p.m. ET and the next day [on Peacock.](https://www.peacocktv.com/blog/stream-the-valley-on-peacock) ## Thoughts on this all?
