“[Did I] attack Danny and [his wife], Nia [Sanchez], or I said out loud what Danny did what he did?” Caperna asked. “I said out loud, ‘Yes, he sexually assaulted Jasmine [Goode] and Michelle [Saniei].’”

Doute, 42, immediately ended the conversation to inform Booko, 41, and Sanchez, 35, of what Caperna had said.

Long called the accusation “absolutely terrible” in a confessional, pointing out that the only people who “should be using those words” are those “involved.”

“He sexually assaulted Jasmine [Goode] and Michelle [Saniei],” Caperna claimed. Bravo

“Janet wasn’t there. It has nothing to do with her,” the former pageant queen said of the Halloween party during which her husband allegedly grabbed Michelle Saniei’s backside and put a hand on Jasmine Goode’s thigh while asking her to “get daddy a drink.”

Booko, who apologized for his “out of character” actions during an April episode, added, “How many times have I owned up for it? You can’t just keep bringing it up like that.”

As for Doute, she doubled down on Caperna’s use of the words “sexual assault” being a “new low” that “crossed a f–king line.”

The “Vanderpump Rules” alum said, “It’s actual slander. It’s actual defamation. She’s attempting to ruin someone’s life that doesn’t deserve it.”

Caperna, however, doubled down — and defended her claim as her husband, Jason Caperna, is a lawyer.

“Unfortunately, for Danny, the definition of what he did is sexual assault,” she claimed. “I’m sorry that he did that but I’m not going to be painted as the bad guy for talking about something that happened. That’s bulls–t.”

The former celebrity assistant did end up apologizing to the couple for “us[ing] the definition of what happened that night,” quipping, “I’m sorry I had to do that.”

Reps for Janet, Booko and the show did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.

The duo have butted heads before, with Janet clapping back at Booko calling her “toxic” on “Watch What Happens Live” in May.

“I thought that that was harsh,” she told Andy Cohen at the time. “And I think somebody is toxic is someone who puts their hand on women without their consent.”

As the drama plays out on air, Janet recently made her social media accounts private amid vile death threats.

She expressed “disappoint[ment]” on her “This Side of the Hill” podcast regarding one of her co-stars positively interacting with trolls hating on her — but did not name names.

“The Valley” airs on Bravo Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET, with episodes available to stream on Peacock.
