If you’re a Real Housewife and you get a DUI, chances are your castmates are going to come after you to demand accountability. That just comes with the territory, and on The Real Housewives of Potomac, Karen Huger is in that boat right now. However, newbie Stacey Rusch isn’t impressed with what she’s seen.
According to Stacey, Karen needs to do a little bit more to own up to her mistake, and in her Watch What Happens Live debut, she took a moment to throw some shade at the Grande Dame. Is this a rookie move, or is she just being real with her feedback?

Karen’s DUI happened in March 2024, and on the show, she shied away from talking about the case. In real-time, she’s accusing the cops involved in her arrest of illegal search and seizure. In a perfect world, Karen wants this all thrown out.
During a recent episode of WWHL, Stacey was asked how Karen has navigated this messy situation. According to her, Karen hasn’t done nearly enough to hold herself accountable.
“I love Karen and I support Karen, but I think we are all excited and wondering when it’s going to happen,” Stacey said. “Stand up, take accountability, and you know, stand on your truth.”
Of course, Stacey isn’t the only one feeling this way. Mia Thorton went as far as to suggest that Karen should go to rehab. We think maybe she just needs some grace.
Meanwhile, Karen has remained adamant that she feels a sense of gratitude following the accident. Although she said it’s been tough to relive it on RHOP, she’s just happy to have made it out alive.
“I was grateful to be alive, and I’m still in that place of gratitude. That’s how I carry it,” Karen confessed in an interview last month.
The Real Housewives of Potomac continues on Bravo, Sunday nights at 8/7c.
