TV star Scheana Shay seemingly revealed why she kept her ex-husband, Brock Davies' affair, a secret. During a Friday, July 4, 2025, episode of her Scheananigans podcast, Shay discussed what moments from her upcoming memoir would "surprise people."
Noting that there were things she hadn't been "forthcoming" about, she stated:
"There are some things that I haven’t been as forthcoming about, maybe that I never corrected the narrative on or never shared my side of the story because I've been afraid."
She elaborated that she was "afraid" to tell people what she was going through because of the perception that she would "make it about (herself)." While she didn't elaborate further, netizens now believe she was alluding to Davies' infidelity.
This stems from an excerpt from the Vanderpump Rules alum’s book, My Good Side, published in Glamour earlier this week. It detailed how Davies confessed to cheating while she was pregnant with their daughter.
Per Cosmopolitan, Scheana Shay first met the Australian rugby player at a music festival in San Diego in September 2023 and began dating soon after.
The couple welcomed their daughter Summer Moon in April 2021 before exchanging vows a year later. The pair will celebrate their third wedding anniversary in August.
In her podcast, Shay asserted that the memoir allowed her to "make it about (herself) and share the unfiltered story with complete "control of the narrative."
In the excerpt published in Glamour, Scheana Shay detailed that Brock Davies owned up to his infidelity in 2023, shortly after news of her Vanderpump Rules co-star Rachel "Raquel" Leviss' cheating scandal with Tom Sandoval made headlines.
Notably, per memoir, she was friends with Leviss, Sandoval, and the latter's partner, Ariana Madix. In the aftermath of the scandal, Shay got into a heated argument that ended in Leviss filing a restraining order against Scheana.
While the motion was eventually dismissed, Shay continued to make headlines.
Calling it the "most stressful and uncertain period" of her life, she wrote:
"I assumed my life would settle down. Silly me. The story of the scandal was far from done, and it became clear that the media was going to have a field day with it for quite some time to come."
It was then that speculations of Brock Davies having an affair with Rachel Leviss began circulating. The rumors claimed that Brock had been "supportive of Raquel" before the news of her affair with Tom.
She initially thought that these suggestions were "ridiculously fake," However, in light of the tabloid speculation, Brock had decided to come clean. Scheana Shay wrote:
"I had spent so much time fighting off my anxiety and convincing myself that just because Tom cheated on Ariana didn’t mean Brock would ever cheat on me. Now I was finding out just how wrong I was."
Notably, Davies did not have an affair with Leviss. It was a woman he met at his gym.
Shay noted that the confession left her feeling "sick to (her) stomach." Davies admitted that he was "scared" about being a father again, which he "chose to deal with by" cheating, per the actress.
Scheana Shay revealed that Brock presented her with a letter detailing "how many times they’d slept together, where they’d done it, and where they hadn’t."
He had reportedly written it a year after ending the affair. Per the actress:
"He said he realized he was throwing his second chance at a family away by stepping out and swore to himself that he would never betray me again."
Scheana Shay revealed that once reading the letter, she immediately asked him to "toss it into the fire," adding she never wanted to see "those words again."
The actress also elaborated on feeling "hurt," "angry," and "sad." She added that her whole world had been "rocked" beyond imagination and "shattered into pieces."
She admitted to throwing a "Rubik’s cube in his direction" out of her emotional turmoil. Shay noted that he dodged.
Scheana Shay's My Good Side is set to release on July 22.
