“Danny Booko Breaks Silence on Pantry Panic: Admits Hiding Drinks from Cameras as Nia & The Valey Crew React”

Danny Booko admitted he was trying to hide his drinking when he snuck a swig in the pantry – which Janet Caperna brought up multiple times throughout season 2 of The Valley. His wife, Nia Sanchez, added that she’s not always happy with “the way that he is when he drinks,” as Janet and Jason Caperna reacted.

After the pantry incident, Janet declared at a ‘girls dinner’ (in front of the entire group) that she would be there for Nia if Danny had a drinking problem. Meanwhile, Jax Taylor accused Danny of getting kicked out of his bar after drinking too much.

In a reunion preview, Andy Cohen asked Danny who he was trying to hide his drinking from when he snuck a swig in the pantry.

“Mainly from the cameras,” Danny admitted, via @breakingtherulespodclips on Instagram. “I knew going into this … that Jax said what he had said [about my drinking].”

Andy then asked if Nia has a problem with Danny’s drinking.

“There’s definitely times where I’m not happy with the way that he is when he drinks, obviously,” Nia answered. “Sometimes he’s hilarious, sometimes he’s funny, and sometimes he gets under my skin and he’s annoying. But I love him. I know who he is and his character as a person overall … We have kids. He’s not going out drinking and getting drunk.”

Jason soon chimed in.

“The issue that I have is – instead of taking accountability – it was like, ‘Where’s a boogeyman? Where’s a scapegoat where I can blame all this on? It’s actually Janet’s fault. Janet’s the reason that all this is happening. Not the fact that Danny has done some bad things. It’s Janet.’ And like what did Janet do? Like can anyone articulate what Janet has done?” he asked.

“Yeah, I can,” said Nia calmly. “It’s more the place that it’s coming from. So one, is it coming from a place of concern? You are the only person that has continually perpetuated this conversation when … the people involved were done.”

But Janet insisted she was only trying to show support for Nia at the “girls dinner” – in case Danny had an “alcohol” issue.
