Will Jaclyn Face Any Real Consequences For Sleeping With Valentin?
What Could Be The End Point Of This Storyline?
With all of this in mind , the question is whether Jaclyn ’s actions will be deal . Laurie did present her inThe White Lotusseason 3 , episode 6 , but her defensiveness meant that a lot of it was brushed under the rug . This seems to be a usual occurrence where Jaclyn and Laurie are touch on , with the latter insistence that the former has pulled stunts like this since school . Therefore , it could be potential that Laurie simply lets Jaclyn off with things and continues to enable her natural process .
Instead , Laurie could really talk to Jaclyn , say her how she feels , and stop the wheel of perniciousness that has apparently persist for decennium . This would mean that Jaclyn faces some branching for log Z’s with Valentin , at least where Laure is relate . This is true more likely , turn over that the show has built up to a big blow - out between the three friends , and have Laurie forgive Jaclyn without much thought would not leave an equal wage - off for this .
Regarding Jaclyn ’s partner , it is difficult to see how she would confront any issue . It is unlikely that Jaclyn would be unresolved and good to her partner about her infidelity , with the mantra"What go on in Thailand , stay in Thailand"being used a few times . Jaclyn ’s husband seems only to be a name to bring her emergence to the prow , mean a fallout between them is unlikely unless one of the friends tells him what Jaclyn did . notwithstanding , it is indecipherable whether Jaclyn will confront consequences inThe White Lotusseason 3 , though many would reason she should .
