Zack Wickham shaded his The Valley costars in the pettiest way possible.

While on a girls’ trip in Mexico, Lala Kent posted a photo carousel alongside Michelle Saniei that Zack later labeled as “queerbaiting.”

(Quick break: Queerbaiting refers to implying non-heterosexual relationships or attraction to engage or attract an LGBTQ+ audience—without ever actually depicting those relationships.)

“I could go Brad, I could go Angelina,” Lala captioned the post on Jan. 26.

For context, the quote was a callback to Kyle Richards poking fun at her own dating roster amid her split from Mauricio Umansky.

Cut to Feb. 3, when Zack Wickham—alongside Jesse Lally—called out what they viewed as performative behavior.

“I go Brad, he goes Angelina. No queerbaiting here,” Zack wrote.

  • 🗣️louder for the people in the back! — Jasmine Goode
  • ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️ — Scheana Shay
  • That last pic ☠️☠️☠️ — Hannah Ferrier

Zack and Michelle Saniei’s ex-husband didn’t stop there. 

The duo also mocked Lala and Michelle’s poses, even recreating their NSFW shower photo.

Taste Buds, do you think Lala’s post was tone deaf??
