Her role on the show was to maintain the store, Antique Archeology, which the show is based around.

While in the store, she was responsible for selling unique items and having items priced by professionals.

Danielle was also the contact for all of the collectors who wanted Mike Wolfe and his co-stars to pick through their collection.

She told Mike where he was headed for the episode and what he could expect when he got there.

However, the past few seasons of the television show haven’t been getting the same amount of views they used to.

In light of that, Danielle shared a mysterious quote on her Instagram Story on Saturday.

The quote read: “Feel it. The thing that you don’t want to feel. Feel it. And be free.”

PLUMMETING

At the end of December 2023, Mike and Danielle returned to the show with new co-stars Robbie Wolfe, 62, and Jersey Jon, 60, for the Season 25 premiere.

The U.S. Sun exclusively revealed the ratings for the premiere episode, Classic Car Cemetery, which reached about 723,000 viewers.

Viewership dropped even further during part two of the premiere, Hidden Cash Stash, which only had 676,000 people tuning in.

It was the lowest premiere rating the once-beloved show has had in a while.

The U.S. Sun also revealed about 880,000 viewers tuned in for episode three, Mike and Homer.

For comparison, the Season 24 premiere kicked off with better numbers, with about 943,000 fans watching on January 4, 2023.  

NEW CAREER PATH

Earlier this week, Danielle shared a sexy snap from her recent sold-out burlesque show.

She has been concentrating more on her outside interests, as questions swirl about the reality show’s future.

The television star shared a glimpse of her most recent show in Puerto Rico on her Instagram.

Danielle looked like she was on fire in a red, barely-there bra decorated with tiny red pasties.

She was wearing even less below her waist, donning only a perfectly placed pastie.

Danielle kept the theme going with a matching red headpiece and mask – complete with its own set of tassels.

She whipped a fiery cape over and around her head while standing on top of a bar, thrilling the captivated crowd.

Danielle captioned the photo with a quote from French philosopher Albert Camus.

“The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.”

Recently, she shared a cryptic message on social media that could be applied to the show
