Another "Real Housewives of Potomac" star is facing legal trouble: Wendy Osefo and her husband, Eddie Osefo, have been arrested for allegedly fraudulently reporting a burglary and theft last year.

A grand jury in Carroll County, Maryland, indicted the spouses Thursday on "multiple counts related to fraud," the Carroll County Sheriff's Office announced Friday in a statement. The reality TV stars, both 41, were booked at Carroll County Central Booking. They were released Friday after posting bond, the statement said.

A representative for the Osefos said Friday that they are "back home safely with their family and in good spirits."

"They are grateful for the outpouring of concern and support from friends, fans, and colleagues," the representative continued. "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 fraud charges stem from an April 2024 burglary reported at the Osefos' home in Finksburg, Maryland, more than 27 miles northwest of Baltimore. The Sheriff's Office said law enforcement responded to a report of burglary and theft and met with the spouses, who claimed their home "had been entered and numerous items had been stolen" while they were on vacation, the statement said.

"They reported approximately 80 items of jewelry, luxury goods, clothing, and shoes were stolen," the statement said, "worth a total of more than $200,000."

Police said Friday that detectives investigating the burglary found that the Osefos had returned more than $20,000 of the "stolen" items to their points of purchase. Detectives also saw images of Wendy Osefo taken after the alleged burglary wearing a ring she said was among items that were stolen.

Court documents show that the Osesfos filed a claim with an insurance company alleging a loss of $450,000 worth of personal property, according to TMZ.

Wendy Osefo joined "Real Housewives of Potomac" for its fifth season in late 2020 and has been part of the cast since. She is a political commentator, author and lifestyle brand entrepreneur. Eddie Osefo is an attorney and self-proclaimed "serial entrepreneur" whose businesses include a business agency and a cannabis edibles line.

In wake of the arrests, Bravo pushed its Oct. 14 episode of "Wife Swap: The Real Housewives Edition," featuring the Osefos, until Oct. 21, Variety reported.

The couple was arrested a year and a half after another "RHOP" personality publicly faced legal woes. Karen Huger, known among fans as the "grand dame," was arrested in March 2024 for driving under the influence after she crossed a median and hit street signs, crashing her Maserati. She was convicted in December of driving under the influence and negligent driving, among other charges.

She was released from prison in September after serving six months of a yearlong prison sentence.
