Karen Huger Returning to ‘Real Housewives of Potomac’ Post-Jail Release for Andy Cohen Sit Down
Karen Huger is returning to The Real Housewives of Potomac for the first time since she’s been released from jail.
Her participation in the landmark 10th season was confirmed on Friday at BravoCon 2025, as the network debuted the series’ mid-season trailer. Huger will make her RHOP return in the season 10 finale, which airs in 2026, for a sit-down interview with Andy Cohen.
The trailer, too, featured footage from Huger’s September release and what appeared to be her reunion with her family. “It’s time to talk about my addiction,” the housewife tells Cohen in the teaser.
Bravo teased that their one-on-one will feature a “deeply personal and reflective conversation that will air in the season finale. This interview unveils a never-before-seen side of Karen where she shares her plans for the next chapter of her life after her release and provides a vulnerable look behind her Grande Dame exterior.”
Huger has been absent from season 10 of RHOP as the installment was filmed while she was serving her jail time. Throughout the episodes, though, the cast has discussed her sentence and pondered how she was doing in jail, teasing that she could potentially return to the series in the future. She was left off Bravo’s official cast list for the 10th installment, and this is the first time the network has confirmed her presence on the season.
Huger was charged with a DUI and DWI linked to a March 2024 car crash. Her charges were a major talking point throughout season nine of the Bravo series, where she claimed she was innocent. She was found guilty in December and later sentenced to two years in prison, with one suspended, meaning she would only serve one year in jail.
However, one of the most devastating aspects of her trial arose as bodycam footage from the night of her crash was released, corroborating allegations that she was intoxicated amid the incident.
Also in the trailer, Wendy Osefo and her husband, Eddie Osefo, can be seen discussing marital issues, though it’s unclear if the footage was shot in response to the couple being arrested for insurance fraud charges. Bravo’s release states that the trailer featured “the Osefos’ current state of affairs.”
The Osefos were arrested and booked on 16 insurance fraud charges in October, with the criminal charges stemming from an alleged April 2024 burglary. Their representatives shared a statement to The Hollywood Reporter at the time, noting, “They are grateful for the outpouring of concern and support from friends, fans and colleagues. The Osefos, alongside their legal team, look forward to their day in court. At this time, they respectfully ask for privacy as they focus on their family and the legal process ahead.”
RHOP is produced by Truly Original. Steven Weinstock, Glenda Hersh, Lauren Eskelin, Lorraine Lawson, Nora Devin Zimmerman, Leola Westbrook-Lawrence and Jackie Hebert executive produce. Nick Prescott and EJ Dutton co-executive produce. Andy Cohen also serves as an executive producer.
