Jesse Metcalfe has praised Scheana Shay, describing his former partner as “super sweet”.
Jesse Metcalfe thinks Scheana Shay is a “super sweet girl”.
The 46-year-old actor dated the reality TV star back in 2007, and they’ve remained on good terms with each other – but Jesse still regrets being featured in her new memoir.
He told E! News: “I run into Scheana from time to time at events and stuff like that. She’s a super sweet girl and I’m happy for her success. I guess it’s a story worthy of print, but it’s not a story for me.”
Jesse – who has been dating Helene Immel since 2023 – was surprised that Scheana even mentioned their romance in the book.
He said: “I was like, ‘This again?’ It was a really, really long time ago.”
In the memoir, Scheana claimed that Jesse once took her shopping for “whatever [she] wanted” at a department store.
But the actor insists he doesn’t remember that incident.
He quipped: “I don’t remember. I don’t remember what I did yesterday.”
Scheana even described their romance as a “real-life fantasy”.
The reality star shared: “We would order in dinner with his parents at his house, and – when we were alone – he would play the guitar and serenade me with songs like ‘Hey There Delilah’. It felt like I was living a real-life fantasy with this guy I’d watched on TV and in movies for years.”
Meanwhile, Scheana recently opened up about her husband’s infidelity, admitting that she didn’t know if she was “strong enough” to overcome the issue.
Brock Davies cheated on Scheana while she was pregnant with their now four-year-old daughter, Summer Moon – but the TV star recently explained why she chose to remain tight-lipped about his infidelity.
She said on the Scheananigans podcast: “I don’t know that our marriage would have survived if we did talk about it that season. I felt like we were still very much in the middle of processing it privately.”
Scheana wanted to process the situation before she spoke about it publicly.
She explained: “I wasn’t about to start unravelling all of this on camera before I had even processed what it meant for our marriage, for our daughter, for our entire life.”
