Wendy and Eddie Osefo were arrested in October 2025
According to The Blast, Wendy and Eddie were arrested in October 2025 after Maryland law enforcement alleged the couple reported a fake burglary to insurance companies in order to receive hefty payouts for allegedly stolen items.

“I’ve read your messages. I can’t respond to everyone, but your love and support means the world to me,” Wendy said. “You know, it’s an unfortunate situation, and right now I can’t say too much, but I will say that when the time is right, I will share my story with everyone, and right now it’s just allegations, so we’ll keep moving forward.”

However, not all of Wendy’s castmates were as supportive as the Bravo fandom, according to The Blast.
Wendy’s co-star Massie recently opened up about Wendy and Eddie’s personal battle in a January 2026 interview and admitted that she began to see Wendy in a different light after the reality star initially questioned where her family’s money came from.
“So at the time I didn’t know that she had questioned my finances, but at the time I was like, ‘Wow, that’s very different from the brand that she represents,'” Massie said.
A few weeks prior, Darby threw shade at the former political commentator during a live event in Washington, saying “Zen Wen” was going to “put pen to paper.”
