[This story contains spoilers, involving The ValleyPart 3 Reunion Special]

The Valley The journey of season 2 has quietly ended, and the three-episode reunion special has left audiences with many shocking truths and unanswered questions.

In the first episode reunion, Brittany Cartwright reviews her separation from her husband Jax TaylorFamily strife continues to take place throughout the second season.Even more shockingly, she publicly disclosed new details about Taylor's alleged violence for the first time—and in a fierce argument, he broke down the coffee table, causing her knee to bruise.

However, in the first episode of the reunion show, Carterwright further accused Taylor of smashing her Stanley water cup, cell phone and laptop and pushing her into the bush.Although Taylor denied the allegations, she insisted that she had evidence from the doorbell camera (Ring) records.

The reunion was recorded on May 2, when Kristen Doute was pregnant with Nia Booko, and the season only aired several episodes.Since then, the plot has changed dramatically: Taylor announced his withdrawal from the show before the third season started; Michelle Saniei ended her relationship with her boyfriend; Dott and Niya's daughter were born one after another.

At the beginning of the reunion, Carterwright revealed that Taylor had told her on the phone: “I don’t know if I’ll get kicked out of the show, so I delayed the divorce process in case I need to get alimony from you.”

Now, the actor who was removed from the Vanderpump Rules due to a controversial incident has officially left The Valley, making their divorce progress even more confusing.It is foreseeable that when the filming of season 3 begins, Carterwright will surely continue to tell the fragmented marriage.But without Taylor's voice, the story of next season is destined to unfold from a completely new perspective.

The third episode reunion dives into the inappropriate touch of Melissa Marie, Danny Booko at a Halloween party.Janet Capperna was criticized by members of the same group and audience for mentioning the matter in front of the camera - after all, before that, Danny, Jasmine and Melissa had reached a private consensus, hoping to turn it over.

"I'm glad I've been talking about it because it's happening more than once," Janet said firmly.Host Andy Cohen asked: "You mean he has touched other women's butts afterward?" She responded: "He has done uncomfortable behavior many times, the most recent time was during the Super Bowl."

She added: "As long as this behavior does not stop, I will not feel guilty. And everyone here knows the truth." She then named Michel Sanière, who confirmed that Carterwright had privately stated that he had been uncomfortable with Danny's behavior on his birthday.

Carterlet responded in a relaxed tone: "Well, Danny did drink too much that day and kept following me, but he didn't touch me. It's just that his personality suddenly changed and became extremely frivolous. It's hard for me to explain that feeling, but that's completely different from the Halloween time."

This incident sparked heated discussion on the show.Janet claims Danny “sexually assaulted” Jasmin and Melissa, while Dowt believes Janet is attacking someone who has nothing to do with her.Yet Janet holds her position:

"I'm not attacking anyone. This man did something very bad, and I think we have to face it. I think it's serious, and Jasmin thinks so, and I even used a legal definition to describe his behavior." She said firmly, "If you touch a woman's body without permission, you have to be responsible for it."

Janet's point of view is not wrong, but she doesn't seem to be the most appropriate voice.The audience questioned the reason why she was involved in the matter, after all, it was Jasmine and Melissa, not herself.In addition, voices pointed out that she and her husband Jason Caperna have always been supporters of Taylor - who is the person accused of domestic violence.This contrast in her position makes her sense of justice seem a bit contradictory.

The final part of the reunion show reviews the warm moments in season 2, especially with Dott getting engaged to Luke Broderick and having a new life joy (the baby is now born, and Dott is still pregnant at the time).While Janet and Zack Wickham clashed throughout the season, they finally decided to let go of the past, although it is still unknown whether the settlement will last.

The third episode did not answer key questions about the future direction of The Valley, as it was filmed before the announcement of Taylor's exit.If he fulfills his promise to Carterwright in the first episode of the reunion, season three may face a more complex divorce storm, including alimony disputes.

When The Hollywood Reporter interviewed executive producer Alex Baskin about the plans for the next season, he remained silent about the show’s future.

"Did Taylor choose to leave because of his strong rebound in the performance of his season 2?" asked the reporter.

Ba Jin replied: "It's hard to say whether he would have made this decision alone without the influence of the audience."

So, is the program team considering getting him back after he receives help?"We are not discussing this issue at the moment," he added.

As for whether Scheana Shay, a member of Vanderpump Rules, will join The Valley to deal with her husband's cheating storm (as rumored by multiple tabloids), Ba Jin did not give a clear answer."We are making plans for next season." He only responded.

Entering the third season, the cast of The Valley has long understood that they are in a reality show.Unlike the ignorance of the predecessors when they first appeared on the screen, they now know that the camera is everywhere and any personal emotions may become a tool to promote the plot.

Despite Taylor's absence, Ba Jin emphasized: "We didn't have him for half a season in the second season, and that period was still rich in content and full of plots." What is worth looking forward to next is whether the actors will use their understanding of the narrative to take the initiative to control their storyline; and whether the production team will introduce more stars who have been eliminated by "Vanderpump Rules" as part of Lisa Vanderpump's strategy to restart Season 12.

As the latest hit show on Bravo Channel, the cast of "The Valley" is standing at a subtle turning point.The audience longs to see how they deal with complex emotional entanglements and how to face the real life behind the camera.The alliance has been formed, the characters are gradually mature, and the story material is abundant, heralding a tension-filled third season to come.

Stepping out of the dark and heavy plots of the second season, the actors proved with their actions: they are fearless and dare to uncover the most private scars.Entering the third season, "The Valley" has only one game rule: either take the initiative to tell your own story and expose your fragile side; otherwise, others will do it all for you.

The Valley season 2 can be watched on the Peacock platform.
