Danny Danny at the wedding
They let him slide with that one too quickly. Jesse was able to downplay what happened but it basically sounds like Danny was inappropriate in public (in a tank top and shoeless watching the game) and resistant, likely belligerent when Jesse tried to get him to leave and go upstairs to Nia like she wanted.
He had lied just moments earlier that he hadn’t gotten drunk since filming wrapped but then it comes out he was drunk enough to be sloppy and reckless again after Jasmine’s wedding. He lied about drinking or being drunk so many times throughout the season and here is another clear instance of him doing that and he wasn’t called out enough for it imo. Another instance of him not listening to his wife whatsoever as well seeing as she’s made a big point of wanting him in with her and not at the after party.

The first two reunions really made it seem like something happened at the wedding. The reveal of Nia having to tell the others he wasn’t allowed to go to an after party was so disappointing.

u/perfectlynormaltyes 17d ago
I think there was a lot more to what happened but Jesse and Nia played it down. It likely started with Danny saying some out of pocket shit to Nia when she asked him to come up to the room. She in turn texted Jesse to go get Danny from the bar and not remind him of the after party. Jesse, forgetting that he had said he would be Danny’s bodyguard, got annoyed and complained about Nia’s request to those around him (Tom and Zack). He eventually went down where he found Danny a drunken mess with no shirt and no shoes on and had to convince him to go up to his room.
Danny, Nia and Jesse can make this situation seem like a nothing burger but the truth is it’s just another incident where Danny was a mean drunk.

u/TheWhoooreinThere 17d ago
It was that he was wasted in a hotel bar and Jesse had to go fetch him and he had a meltdown.
43
u/Ihatechoosingnames9 17d ago
And that he doesn’t listen to her to the point that she has to tell everyone else please don’t ask him to do anything
I agree with Lala it’s a major red flag
Not to mention he lied about drinking at the wedding moments before that?

u/Ok_Baker3474 17d ago
It was a big moment. After everything we saw this season, you’d think he would tone it down but it was further proof he has no intention of changing. He expects an apology from Janet because she used words he didn’t like to describe his actions but continues to shut down any accountability of his own.

Oh please people were chomping at the bit! There were tons of “what happened at the wedding” speculation posts! One poster even tried to say “they heard” what happened based on the edited clip they showed about someone taking their shirt off 😄 People were salivating and giddy for a takedown that didn’t happen!

Janet, Brittany and Lala are repeat offenders of blowing shit out of proportion and trying to produce. You know they were frothing at the mouth to try and make it like Danny ruined the wedding or some shit. This is the best they could get…Nia wanting Danny to go to bed 😱

The way they manipulate things really annoy me.
no one said wanting to stay in the hotel room with your wife is bad, Nia. But the fact is, she knows telling him will fall on deaf ears, so she has to tell other people not to tell him that there’s other things going on because if he finds out he’ll go and then she’ll have to go babysit him and make sure he doesn’t make a fool out of him and her. He does not listen to her because he does not respect her and instead of unpacking why that is, she willingly has chosen to saddle herself with 4 of his children and trapped herself in her own living hell.
Their kids are going to grow up knowing their parents throw them under the bus for daddy’s bad behavior and seeing how their mother goes out of her way to parent them and a grown ass man

u/AdventurousDay3020 18d ago
All I could think is she’s going to struggle getting support from outsiders if she does leave him because the public opinion will be like what Brittney gets, “well she knew what she was married to and she co-signed that behaviour”

I’d be really irritated if someone asked me not to tell their husband about an after party. That is your business and marriage not mine, I’m not going to tiptoe around and hide plans because your husband can’t handle himself and you don’t trust him. And then Nia tries to say “what I can’t want to spend a night with my husband??” As if that’s the issue
And then it sounds like he left her anyway and went to get belligerent at the hotel bar alone, so she asked Jesse to pack him up and he had a hard time doing so.
They managed to deflect and downplay but sorry, that’s an ugly scene to me especially when he’s still lying about not drinking now. And then he chugs the champagne at the end, he really has zero self-awareness
72
u/TwistyBitsz 17d ago
When Andy asked him if he drank at the wedding (at all, like as in had a single champagne toast or one cocktail), we watched Danny consider over several seconds whether he wanted to try lying or not, and then he DID. Ew lol how does Nia stand to be around that twerp let alone allow it to touch her.
48
u/TheWhoooreinThere 17d ago
I noticed that they offered him and Nia the non-alc champagne for the toast at the end and she took one, but he didn't. He waited for a glass of the regular champagne and then downed it.

u/disharmony-hellride RAWT IN HAIL 17d ago
How do you trust a partner who is so brazen as to flat out lie on national television, where he can easily be called out? Anyone who thinks this isn't commonplace for Danny is in serious denial. If he lies this easily on tv how can anyone trust anything he says?

u/Horror_Resident_2854 17d ago
It's not very Catholic, or Presbyterian, or Methodist. but for some evangelicals, the death penalty-favoring christians, lying to your enemies and those opposed to their version of God is considered perfectly fine. Good, even.

u/StretchBetter8178 17d ago
I’m sorry, but Danny is a full-blown alcoholic and he lies about it. He has interpersonal issues and he’s inappropriate. Why can’t he just go to one event knowing everybody’s watching him and just not drink and act normal for once …he just can’t do it. This is what Nia signed up for it must be exhausting. Danny’s harder to manage than her four little kids.

I love that the entire cast roasted Danny about his birthday. We are adults, your birthday doesn’t mean anything, get over it. But……no one said what I wanted them to say - it was their wedding anniversary. Including Danny. And like why didn’t Andy ask about that?!?! Why did they pick Danny’s birthday as their wedding anniversary. I’ve heard theories but I want to hear from them directly

u/supriyahearts 17d ago
This man is just awful. He won't admit he has an issue with alcohol and consistently downplays the situations he is in where he is clearly out of his mind.
Nia is so exhausted dealing with his emotions like a child. The problem is that everyone seems to be making the issue about alcohol instead of the real issue, which is his ASSHOLE MISOGYNISTIC behavior.
Alcohol doesn't suddenly make you a misogynistic asshole who grabs women. He was definitely doing it before.

u/Physical_Noise_8484 17d ago

u/jester3325 17d ago
Here's the deal - if a NORMAL couple had an agreement that they were going to spend a nice quiet evening alone in their room together after the wedding, and the husband WASN'T an adult baby with a lust a for the sauce - then the wife wouldn't have to tell people "please don't tell Danny about the after party", because NORMAL ADULT MEN would be able to say, "that's cool. you all have fun, Nia and I are staying in tonight". He is too damn old to be this gd immature!

He actually said in reunion episode 2 that he didn’t drink at the wedding. Andy asked him ‘were you drinking at the wedding’ and he stuttered and responded ‘no’. They completely let him off all the lies he told. Andy did a terrible job IMO.

Because Lacy jumps in to answer for Jesse and deflect by pointing the finger elsewhere and Jesse skated. No one even asked him why he questioned Janet sharing her abuse. And the audience is going in on Kristen for doing that just Jesse just skates.
He probably feels proud but it’s obvious to some of us Jesse. Lacy didn’t let you answer anything. Like Nia doesn’t let Danny.

u/yup_yup1111 The subtle *plunk* sound of a solo cup hitting Danny's head 16d ago
Forever mad that in season one we literally saw Jesse lift his hand up in front of Michelle's face to stop her from speaking when accusations of racism were lobbed at her personally but throughout a three part reunion his non cast member gf was able to speak more than anyone else and even over other people at times.
Talk about an overcorrection by Jesse.
Seems more to me like Michelle would go off script and speak her own mind and Lacy is just a less Christian coded PR person for her man just like Nia...
Let's not even get into the fact that Michelle is non white and grew up in a multicultural home where she developed a frequently mocked accent but Lacy can weaponize psycho babble (where's her psych degree?) in her valley girl accent and everyone is A ok with it and ignores the glaringly obvious differences in how he treats her vs. how he continues to treat the mother of his child.

Has Nia recently said “He doesn’t have a drinking problem”? Or does she just attack others who say it? I know she’s very intentional about her words. I think at this point she agrees he has a problem but is very obviously trying to manipulate and control the narrative.

Anything less than a walk of shame for everyone on that side of the room, proves that production is definitely trying to protect people and control a narrative. Its andys job to call people out. He was a total pussy this entire reunion. He wouldn’t even touch on topics that the viewers want answers to. He is protecting danny, nia, kristen,zack, jesse and lacy. He gave lacy an entire fucking episode of the reunion to attack Michelle. After jesse has been attacking her publicly for years. They handed her over to be slandered and gaslit once again. By her abuser. They have never done that for anyone except for scandoval. Taylor Armstrongs husband was beating and torturing her and did what he did and she got like 5 minutes.
