‘RHOP’ Star Karen Huger Sentenced to Prison for Fourth DUI Conviction

Karen Huger reflects on her actions and accountability as she begins a one-year prison term with an additional year suspended and five years probation.

Karen Huger, star of 'The Real Housewives of Potomac,' has been sentenced to two years in prison, with one year suspended, following her fourth DUI conviction.
The sentencing stems from a March 2024 car crash where Huger, under the influence of alcohol and antidepressants, endangered public safety.
Bodycam footage from the arrest showed Huger visibly intoxicated, stumbling, and making incoherent statements, which she admitted she hadn’t watched until her trial.
Huger has taken responsibility for the incident, attributing it to self-medicating with alcohol and antidepressants after increasing her dosage without medical advice.
Before her sentencing, Huger entered a private recovery program and has expressed a commitment to personal accountability and self-improvement.
