Fans were first introduced to Michelle Saniei on the premiere season of Bravo’s “The Valley” in May 2024. Saniei was then married to her husband, Jesse Lally, with whom she shares a daughter, Isabella. However, the couple separated just after filming wrapped on season one, announcing their divorce shortly after.
In the latest season of “The Valley,” Saniei is in her single era after her breakup with her boyfriend, Aaron Nosler. Fans watched as she and Tom Schwartz had unexpected sparks fly, but as fans now know, Schwartz is currently dating model Kiana Carroll, which means he and Saniei remained just friends.
Michelle Saniei Shares an Update on Her Love Life
GettySeason 3 of “The Valley,” which premiered on April 1, follows Michelle Saniei in her single-girl era after splitting from her boyfriend, Aaron Nosler, whom she was dating throughout season 2.
With the season fully wrapped and currently airing, Saniei recently shared with BravoTV whether she was dating anyone new. “I am single, single, single,” she confirmed.
Saniei further shared that no one has caught her eye at the moment, adding, “I am not dating anybody, but I am open to it, whenever that time comes. I just have not met anybody special yet. Single, ready to mingle.”
According to her Bravo bio for season 3, it appears that Saniei will be focusing on herself and her daughter, Isabella, while also finalizing her divorce from Jesse Lally and having to be around his new girlfriend, Lacy Nicole.
“She’s more than ready to let her hair down and let go of her past, but her looming divorce and the constant presence of Jesse and Lacy around her friends weigh on her,” it read.
Saniei Reveals Why Aaron Nosler Broke up With Her
During the season 3 premiere, Saniei briefly discussed her split with Nosler with co-stars Brittany Cartwright, Janet Caperna, and Lala Kent. She shockingly revealed that the reason Nosler broke up with her was that “he wants a fitness girl.”
In a confessional, Saniei shared, “It’s the first time anyone has ever broken up with me. I usually do the breaking up.” Nosler and Saniei’s split was confirmed in July 2025 after over a year of dating.
She further addressed their split during the “After Show”, stating that she “didn’t see any signs” from Nosler that he wanted to end things. Further addressing her comments on the show about the reasons for him breaking up with her, she said, “He was just nitpicking every single thing about me, about how I don’t go to the gym enough.”
Despite what seemed like a harsh breakup, Saniei also said that Nosler gave her and her daughter whatever time they needed to move out of his home. “He was very proper in that he left the house, and he went to live with his mom for a couple of months, while I found a place. I was very grateful for that part.”
The premiere episode saw Saniei living in her new West Hollywood home. She even shared the moving process back in August 2025 on Instagram.
