Danny Booko and Nia Sanchez are leaving Bravo's *The Valley* after three seasons, with the departure announced as Season 4 begins production. The couple, part of the original ensemble when the *Vanderpump Rules* spinoff premiered in 2024, said in a joint social media statement that they are "protecting" their "peace" and family, thanking Bravo while declining to return. Their exit follows a turbulent stretch on the show, during which Booko faced repeated criticism over his on-camera conduct.

Over their three seasons, Booko and Sanchez documented becoming parents to four children under four, including twins Sanchez had shortly before joining the cast and a fourth child born in 2025. The last two seasons were marked by controversy: Booko was accused of alcohol abuse and of inappropriate conduct by co-stars Jasmine Goode and Melissa Carelli, issues the show addressed on-air with apologies. Season 3 closed with a clash between Booko and Janet and Jason Caperna, in which Booko made a remark about Jason's knee injury, prompting Janet to throw a cup of liquid at him; the dispute remained unresolved at the reunion.
