Wendy Osefo and husband Eddie Osefo are facing legal trouble.
The Real Housewives of Potomac star and her husband were arrested in Westminster, Maryland, Oct. 9, according to online court records viewed by E! News. Wendy is facing 16 charges, including seven felonies for allegedly giving false information in excess of $300, the court records revealed. The 41-year-old is also facing a misdemeanor count for making a false statement to a police officer.
As for Eddie, he is facing 18 charges, including nine felonies over allegedly giving false information in excess of $300, per the court records.
The couple—who share children Karter, 11, Kruz, 9, and Kamrynn, 5—was in the process of posting a $50,000 bond as of the morning of Oct. 10, Page Six reported per the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office.
E! News has reached out to reps for the Osefos as well as the Carroll County Sheriff's Office for comment and has yet to hear back.
News of their arrest comes a little over a month after their RHOP costar Karen Huger was released from prison early on Sept. 2. Karen served six months in prison following a guilty verdict over a March 2024 car crash and DUI arrest near Bethesda, Maryland.
Wendy had recently weighed in on Karen's release ahead of RHOP's season 10 premiere Oct. 5, which featured footage of her leaving prison.

"I have not spoken to her since her release,” Wendy told Deadline in an interview published Oct. 8. “However, I feel like everybody should be given the opportunity to have a platform to tell their own story. There’s no point or purpose in your story being told by others.”
While there’s no evidence indicating that their arrests were related to Eddie’s burgeoning cannabis line Happy Eddie, the former professor had recently boasted about the financial success of the company, which he was in the process of expanding.
"I’m really proud of Eddie," she told Bravo's The Daily Dish in an interview published Oct. 5. "Happy Eddie is taking off, especially now that it’s in three different states,” she said, gushing about the business expansion. “Happy Eddie is—you know—financially successful. Cha-ching!"
Her husband shared similar sentiment on the season 10 premiere.
"Aren’t you guys proud of me? I started with one state, and now I’m growing the business into multiple states,” he told the kids in the episode. "So you can now see, as an entrepreneur, when you put your mind to something, you can grow your business."
