Andy Cohen Breaks Silence on RHOP’s Wendy and Eddie Osefo’s Arrests
Andy Cohen has weighed in on The Real House of Potomac’s Wendy Osefo and Eddie Osefo’s recent arrests.
“I want to say that like all of you, I found out about the charges against Wendy and Eddie Osefo on Friday morning and there’s not much that I can say,” Cohen, 57, said on the Monday, October 13, episode of SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live. “I know nothing of the charges more than you guys do, than what I’ve read.”
The Real Housewives producer confessed, “I’m sad about this. I’m really sad about this and Wendy is just, you know, I’m a Wendy fan and she has been a great Housewife and a great role model.”
Cohen explained, “She’s always led with education and her solid family values, and so I’m really thinking about her and her family and I’m certainly hoping that this is all some big nothing.”
Us Weeklyconfirmed that Wendy, 41, and her husband, also 41, were indicted by a grand jury on Thursday, October 9, on charges of insurance fraud, conspiracy insurance fraud and false statement to a police officer.
Wendy and Eddie were booked in Westminster, Maryland, on Thursday, according to court records obtained by Us. They were released on Friday, October 10, after both posting $50,000.
“Dr. Wendy Osefo and her husband, Edward Osefo, are back home safely with their family and in good spirits,” a rep for Wendy and Eddie told Us in a statement at the time. “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.”
