Karen Huger's DUI charges—or as she prefers to call them, "allegations"—continue to cast a shadow over Bravo's Real Housewives of Potomac. The 61-year-old was involved in a DUI-related accident in March 2024, just a month before filming for Season 9 began.

She has remained tight-lipped about the incident, but in this week's episode, titled Blast From Everyone's Past, Mia Thornton suggested that Karen should consider going to rehab.

New cast member Stacey Rusch apparently hadn't heard about the incident, despite it being a central topic of discussion among the group this season, and went straight to Karen to relay what she had just heard regarding rehab.

Stacey's actions have divided RHOP fans—some are labeling her a "snitch," while others believe she's being a genuine friend by addressing the issue directly.

@suhmeenuh commented, "They trying to get Karen off the show talking rehab," while @venusnv80plus added, "And on that note…Stacey is a Producer Plant. This naïveté that she has going on has moved into unbelievable territory."

That user wasn’t alone in doubting how Stacey hadn’t yet learned about all of Karen's charges or allegations.

@thirdking0208 noted, "Stacey is always playing catch-up. Lol. I love it because she really is trying to figure out how this show works. But, you can tell she’s always getting caught off guard or thrown for a loop. Bless her. I love watching her figure it out."

@theINTELLECT thought the rehab suggestion was over the top, commenting, "These girls are going way too far with this rehab mess. Mia and Jacqueline are messy."

@foxyfeline99 said, "Jacqueline and Mia are now making recommendations for treatment Lord help us. Please don’t take treatment advice from these two morons."

@thisismorgeaux defended Stacey, saying, "I love Stacey she really don’t keep mess because these girls be having her gobsmacked."

@bflare added, "I really like Stacey! She really is clueless and just be meaning well," while @ogchelss observed, "I like Stacey cause you can tell she wasn’t a 'fan' of the show prior to joining. She really just be learning as she’s going no presumptions of the cast, I love it."

However, @BLiciouslly thought Stacey's obliviousness was an act, tweeting, "Stacey does messy with such class and grace that I almost believe she’s just concerned! I LOVE this for US!!!! She is such a queen!!!"
