The Valley cast reflected on the rumors of Jason Caperna removing his wedding ring at bars after Tuesday’s new episode mentioned the claims against him.

 

As Janet Caperna, 35, fired back at the suggestion that she was involved in the allegations against her husband, and Jason, 41, accused Kristen Doute‘s fiance, Luke Broderick, of a “premeditated” takedown plan, Jasmine Goode, 37, explained the role she played in the report and Luke admitted to seeking out answers.

“Jasmine, who is ‘close friends’ with Jason, she’s the one who had heard this and had brought it up, and she still stands by it,” Danny Booko, 41, revealed on the May 27 episode of The Valley: After Show. “They have denied it over and over, and Jasmine’s like, ‘Well, you’re lying because I know this for a fact from multiple sources that this is true.’”

 

According to Jasmine, she heard the rumor about Jason and his ring three years prior at a birthday party with some people he had fallen out with.

“A lot of things were said, not just him taking off his ring, but I took it as just a friend getting upset at his friend,” Jasmine stated. 

But in her own segment, Janet shared that the friends whom Jasmine accused of stating the rumor denied it.

“Jasmine at first tried to throw out a couple of Jason’s friends that are not in this group, friends that he’s known for years and years, and when we asked them about it, they had no idea,” she alleged. “They were like, ‘We’ve never said that, thought that, where is this coming from?’ And then one of the guys that Jasmine named actually texted Jasmine and said like, ‘What’s going on. I’ve never said this,’ and Jasmine’s response was, ‘I didn’t say any of that. Janet’s the one making this mess.’ And I’m like, ‘Wait. I started a rumor that my husband takes his own ring off?”

 

While Jasmine supposedly pointed a finger at Janet, Kristen, 42, confirmed she heard the rumor “from Zack first” as Zack Wickham, 36, clarified that he and Jasmine “both told Kristen.”

“Do we believe it? Probably not. But also, that’s a very specific thing to say about somebody,” Zack stated.

 

Because Kristen had a bone to pick with Janet for her actions against Danny and Nia Booko, 35, she saw the rumor about Jason as an opportunity to get revenge.

“Honestly, I tried to get Kristen to not say it because I’m like, ‘Look, we don’t know if this is true. We have a name that supposedly said this. Why don’t we try to go to him, see if it’s legit or not?” Luke recalled.

In an effort to get more information about Jason’s potential behavior, Luke sent a friend request to one of the people who allegedly mentioned his wedding ring.

“I clicked add. It was requested. I don’t even know if he ever accepted it. But that turned into now I’m digging up dirt on them when in reality, I was trying to keep Kristen from saying it, like, ‘Let’s find out if this is true,’” he explained.

Still, Janet was convinced that Luke’s request proved he and Kristen “were trying to dig up information on Jason,” and Jason seemed to agree.

“Luke said himself the plan was to vet the rumor to see if there’s any credibility to it before dropping it on me, and then he was mad at Kristen cuz she dropped it without doing his due diligence to see if it was accurate. But I was like, ‘Dude, ask me,’” he noted. “I’ve seen rumors about Luke on the internet .. I would never bring that up and say, like, ‘What about this?’ And I would never even look into it further. And I never had shown him anything in the past that I’m a liar or that I’m a creep or sneak.”

 

“I’ve given him no reason to not trust me,” Jason added.

Jason also noted that Luke sent the request to his friend before he confronted Danny about his drinking.

“So this was like premeditated, ‘Okay, this summer we’re taking out Jason.’ That really rubbed me the wrong way,” he stated.

But Janet didn’t take the rumor about Jason seriously.

“The fact that the best thing that Detective Doute could get was ‘Jason sometimes goes to bars and takes his ring off,’ with no proof other than, ’It’s the streets,’ I feel pretty good about my marriage because if my marriage passes the Doute test, alright,” she declared.

Looking back at the unnamed friends’ denials of the claims she made against them, Jasmine said her fiancé, Melissa Marie, made a good point.

“I was like, ‘Babe, this is really gonna stuff if these people are actually gonna not own up to this sh*t.’ And she said, ‘Well, Jasmine, what do they have to gain to actually tell the truth right now? They’re in a good place with him right now. They’re scared of Janet. They’re like, we don’t want to deal with it.’”
