'Siesta Key': Alex's mom says he cheated on Alyssa to realize Juliette wasn't the one? Fans call her 'cringey'

Alex and Juliette have a history. And it's going to be a long, long time before they can actually move on from all the moments and memories they share together

Last week, Juliette Porter finally put a lid on the Alex Kompothecras chapter. But it's possibly one aspect of their lives that will keep bouncing back no matter what they do or where they are in their lives.

'Siesta Key' set up the stage for explosive drama by making Beth Kompothecras (Alex's mother) and Allison Ragan Salerno (Alyssa Salerno's mother) meet each other to discuss the future of their kids. 

Alex and Alyssa are having a baby. Ever since Alyssa broke the news to her parents, they have been worried sick about their child and more because they are well aware of how Alex hooked up with Juliette in Nashville. Even though he had a word with Alyssa's father, Nick Salerno, about how he is going to be protective and caring about her, Allison possibly thought it was a good idea to talk to Beth and clear the air. 

But the conversation sounded as if Beth were trying to hide Alex's fault and making excuses, which isn't surprising because every parent would do that. But saying Alex had to cheat on Alyssa to realize that Juliette was the wrong person for him was going a bit overboard, the viewers thought. Allison asked in clear terms that all she wishes to know is how long will it take for Alex to understand that Alyssa was the one for him?

Alex and Juliette have a history. And it's going to be a long, long time before they can actually move on from all the moments and memories they share together. Maybe, Alyssa has to make peace with that before she can confidently say: "Alex is mine."

"Beth making excuses like oh yeah, maybe he had to cheat on your daughter to realize Juliette isn’t what he wanted. #SiestaKey," a fan commented, while another shared: "Lol they’re a neat couple. He cheated on her, physically and emotionally. Bribed their friend with a designer bag for silence. Yeah they’re a neat couple. Come on Beth. I appreciate Alyssa’s mom- she doesn’t look beat for the Kompo bullshit #SiestaKey."

"I cant with alexs mom shes so cringey trying to justify her sons actions. Does this women realize alyssa is carrying her grand child? Why would you said maybe that needed to happen .... like wtf #SiestaKey," a user tweeted.
