‘RHOP’ star Wendy Osefo and husband Eddie break silence on fraud arrest
“The Real Housewives of Potomac” star Wendy Osefo and her husband, Edward “Eddie” Osefo, have issued a statement on their arrest for alleged fraud.
“Dr. Wendy Osefo and her husband, Edward Osefo, are back home safely with their family and in good spirits,” their rep told Page Six Friday.
“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.”
The Carroll County Sheriff’s Office in Westminster, Md., confirmed to Page Six earlier on Friday that the pair was taken into custody Thursday. They were released after each provided a $50,000 bond.
The Bravo star, 41, is facing accusations of insurance fraud, false statements to a police officer and conspiracy to commit insurance fraud, with 16 charges in all.
Seven of her charges are for felony false/misleading info fraud in excess of $300, while eight are for misdemeanor on-false/mislead info fraud in excess of $300. Per a public information officer for the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office, she also faces a misdemeanor charge of making a false statement to an officer.
Her spouse faces 18 charges, nine of which are for felony false/misleading info fraud in excess of $300. Eight of Eddie’s charges are for misdemeanor on-false/mislead info fraud in excess of $300, and he, too, faces a misdemeanor charge of making a false statement to an officer.
Mugshots released on Friday showed both Wendy and Eddie smiling as they were booked.
Behind the charges is a burglary reported by the couple in April 2024, which they alleged happened while they were on a tropical Spring Break vacation in Jamaica with their family. The reality star claimed she’d been robbed of pricey items including jewelry and designer handbags.
“My family and I are devastated and feel violated by this intrusion,” Wendy told TMZ at the time. “We thank God no one was home … so for that we feel very blessed. Material things can always be replaced.”
According to documents obtained by Us Weekly, however, investigators noted problems in the former CNN commentator’s version of events, including the fact that the couple allegedly “activated the ADT alarm system upon leaving for vacation,” but no motion was “detected inside the residence” during their absence.
“There was activity, such as package deliveries, on the ring camera that was monitored remotely by the Osefos,” authorities noted. The docs obtained by the outlet also revealed that Eddie provided a list of the items allegedly stolen to two insurance companies.
“He was asked whether any of the items on the list had been returned, which he denied,” the documents read. “He was asked if he had other insurance but failed to disclose to Homesite and Jewelers that he was also making a claim with Travelers Insurance.”
The couple signed claims of a $450,000 loss in property. Eddie later contacted Travelers to update the claim, suggesting Wendy’s diamond anniversary ring was missing — though in the initial Travelers claim, a lawyer stated the couple wore anniversary bands at the time of the alleged loss.
Sheriff’s deputies later learned that the Bravolebrity had appeared on social media, allegedly wearing the ring in question. Amid growing suspicion, authorities learned the couple was facing “substantial debt.”
An investigation revealed some items that were allegedly stolen had instead been returned to their original place of purchase, “where a full refund was provided prior to the alleged burglary.”
In resurfaced comments from a Sept. 2024 interview on the “Gabbing With Gib” podcast, Wendy said she was “just so heartbroken” that she had been “violated, so to speak” by the alleged robbery.
Wendy joined the cast of “RHOP” back in 2020. The couple shares three children.
