Another Bravo personality is in trouble with the law.
According to court documents obtained by TMZ and other celebrity gossip outlets, The Real Housewives of Potomac star Wendy Osefo and her husband Eddie Osefo have been arrested for fraud.
A grand jury indicted the reality TV star on insurance fraud, conspiracy insurance fraud and false statement to the police officer on Thursday, October 9, based on these documents.
As it stands, Osefo faces 16 charges, including seven felonies and one misdemeanor for making false statements to a police officer.
Meanwhile, his spouse faces 18 charges, including nine felonies for allegedly providing false information in excess of $300, according to court records.
The couple was charged Thursday night in Westminster, Maryland.
Authorities allege the semi-famous couple reported a burglary in April last year, claiming they found their room ransacked after returning from a trip to Jamaica.
The fact is that Wendy ended up being seen in a social media post wearing exactly the diamond ring that she had reported stolen to the police. Oops!
Additionally, an investigation determined that a number of items the Osefos said were stolen were purchased and then returned to the store “where a full refund was provided prior to the alleged theft.”
Documents indicate the couple claimed a $450,000 personal property loss from an insurance company.
The stars share children Karter, 11, Kruz, 9, and Kamrynn, 5.
News of her arrest comes just over a month after Real Housewives of Potomac co-star Karen Huger was released from prison early on September 2 after serving six months in prison following a guilty verdict for a March 2024 car crash and DUI arrest near Bethesda, Maryland.
Previously, of course, Real Housewives of New Jersey cast member Teresa Giudice spent time behind bars for financial fraud.
Likewise, Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Jen Shah is serving a 6.5-year sentence for her role in a wire fraud and money laundering scheme, with a release date set for November 3, 2026.
Wendy Osefo has been part of the cast of Real Housewives of Potomac since season 5 in 2020.
