Marciano Brunette has faced cheating accusations after a scene from Vanderpump Rules: Lisa Las Vegas went viral. The footage left viewers wondering whether he kissed another woman while dating Jessi Draper. However, sources claim the encounter took place before the couple became exclusive. They insist Marciano and Jessi had not agreed to an exclusive relationship at the time.
Marciano Brunette faces cheating accusations after a resurfaced encounter
According to TMZ, people with direct knowledge of the situation say the encounter happened in May. At the time, Marciano and Jessi had been casually dating for about a month. The sources say the couple did not become exclusive until August. That timeline contradicts allegations that Marciano cheated on Jessi while they were in an exclusive relationship.
One source strongly defended Marciano while speaking to the outlet. “He has never cheated on Jessi and never will,” the insider said. The viral scene sparked questions about the couple’s relationship because viewers were reportedly unaware of when the encounter took place. Sources maintain that Marciano did not break any exclusivity agreement because the pair had not made that commitment yet.
Marciano and Jessi’s relationship had already attracted attention on The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. Their connection became a major storyline as Jessi dealt with marital problems involving her then-husband, Jordan Ngatikaura. Jessi later divorced Jordan, while her relationship with Marciano continued to attract attention. Now, the Bravo footage has brought their romance back into the spotlight.
Meanwhile, The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives is preparing for its sixth season. The outlet reports that production is underway and that the season has reportedly received an order for 20 new episodes. Jessi is among the remaining cast members following the reported departures of Taylor Frankie Paul, Mikayla Matthews, and Whitney Leavitt. For now, sources maintain that Marciano did not cheat, insisting the May encounter happened before he and Jessi became exclusive.
