RHOP's Karen Huger Faces Prison Setback After Work Release Request
It's hard to believe that is sitting in a jail cell right now, but actions have consequences. Earlier this year, the former grande dame of was sentenced to 12 months behind bars for her role in a drunk driving accident.
According to new court records, Karen recently applied for a work-release program. If approved, she would have been removed from the Montgomery County Jail and transferred to a much nicer rehabilitation center. Unfortunately for Karen, a judge just denied her request.
The Washington Post reported on all of the details regarding Karen's failed attempt at a work release. Their legal experts explained that inmates become eligible for work release within 12 months of their release. Since Karen's sentence is relatively short, she basically filed for a work release as soon as she got into her orange jumpsuit.
Of course, the idea of a 'work release' for Karen makes it sound like she's trying to get back in front of the Bravo cameras. However, that's not the case. She wasn't trying to make a bid for RHOP Season 10.
This work release program requires inmates to kick off each day by applying for jobs. Those roles have to meet specific criteria. The jobs have to be within walking distance or accessible via public transportation. Plus, they have to be in an alcohol-free environment and not involve being filmed. Obviously, that would completely rule out working on Housewives.
Per the court documents, Karen was hoping to spend the time in the work-release center focusing on her treatment and engaging in an outpatient rehabilitation program. Upon reviewing the request, Judge Terrence McGann denied the request, which means Karen will stay behind bars in a traditional jail environment.
Although this wasn't the news Karen and her lawyer hoped for, it's not all bad news for Karen. She has supposedly been on her best behavior since her sentence, they predict she'll be released in November 2025, just a few months earlier than anticipated.
The Real Housewives of Potomac is streaming on Peacock and Hayu in the UK and Ireland.

‘RHOA' Reunion Drama: Kenya Moore ‘Not Invited,' Brit Eady Not In Attendance + The Seating Chart
Source: Prince Williams / Getty The current season of Real Housewives of Atlanta is coming to an end, which means that the reunion is just around the corner, but when the season wrap-up airs on Bravo, two faces from the cast will be noticeably absent. Both Brit Eady and Kenya Moore (amidst their bitter feud) did not attend the recent taping. Per People , the reunion recently filmed on Thursday, June 5, in Atlanta, and while Moore not being present is that shocking, Eady's absence definitely is, as she was a main focal point of the season. According to the outlet, Eady's decision not to attend was her own, but Moore was reportedly not invited by Bravo. Confirming the reports, the network released the RHOA reunion seating chart and neither of the ladies were present. 'RHOA' Reunion Taping Following the reports of their absence, both Eady and Moore spoke out on social media. 'As everyone is now aware, I'm not attending the reunion,' Eady wrote on Instagram Stories. 'This was my decision. The events of this season have devastated me, and while I cannot say much right now, I do want to set the record straight about one thing: the graphic sexual photo surrounding the events in Episode 5. That photo was not me.' 'Based on what I was told, assumed that it was somehow a photo of me — which is why I reacted in the way that I did,' she continued. 'I do not know who was in that photo, but upon seeing it for the first time recently, I now know it was not me,' she said. 'I look forward to seeking accountability and moving past this dark part of my life.' Meanwhile Moore took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to respond to her absence. 'I'm disappointed to not be a part of the RHOA 16 reunion taping today,' Moore wrote. 'Please know that I take full accountability for my actions and deeply apologize to all those affected including Brittney, the cast, crew, guests and viewers. I look forward to seeing you all back on Bravo soon.' Source: Prince Williams / Getty Long before the 16th season of the series began airing in March, the tea about what happened during filming was spilled when it was revealed that Moore had been fired just a few weeks into filming for sharing explicit photos of new cast member Eady at Moore's hair spa opening. Once the season began airing, and fans finally got to see the explicit photo saga play out on TV, both Eady and Moore went back and forth online and in interviews — heating up the drama between them repeatedly. As of now, there is no official release date for the RHOA season 16 reunion, but it is expected to air sometime in the coming weeks.

Brit Eady Blasts Bravo With $20M Lawsuit Over 'Fake Sex Act' Poster
Source: Paras Griffin / Getty Brit Eady has filed a $20 million lawsuit against Bravo, claiming the network aired and promoted a false and damaging image that appeared to show her performing a sexual act. In court documents obtained by TMZ, Eady alleges that promotional posters handed out by Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kenya Moore during her salon opening in June 2024 falsely depicted Eady engaging in oral sex. Although Eady did not attend the event, she says she was blindsided by the image once it surfaced publicly, a moment that sparked immediate outrage and controversy. Following the incident, Moore was reportedly removed from the cast. RELATED: The Shade Assassin: Kenya Moore's Best 'RHOA' Moments Eady's lawsuit names Bravo, NBCUniversal, and the production companies Truly Original and Endemol Shine North America. She accuses them of defamation, sexual harassment, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and fostering a hostile work environment. According to the suit, Bravo knowingly contributed to what Eady calls a 'gendered attack' and continued to air footage and cast commentary about the situation in an episode that aired in April 2025. The lawsuit also asserts that Bravo forced Eady to return to work despite the emotional toll the incident took on her. She claims she was subjected to offensive, sexualized behavior and remarks, making it difficult to continue working in that environment. Eady is now demanding the episode be removed from all platforms and is seeking at least $20 million in damages. She also publicly addressed the controversy on social media, denying she was the woman in the photo and confirming that she skipped the season's reunion taping.
