Real Housewives of Potomac star Karen Huger has officially been sentenced in her DUI case, receiving a two-year sentence with one year suspended.
This means the reality TV personality will serve one year behind bars following her March 2024 arrest.
A Maryland judge handed down the ruling moments ago despite Huger’s legal team pleading for leniency.
The reality star had voluntarily entered a rehabilitation facility before the sentencing, hoping to demonstrate accountability.
Huger, who has had previous DUI offenses, maintained that this latest incident was not due to a drinking problem but rather the unintended effects of mixing alcohol with prescribed antidepressants.
She revealed that she had been taking the medication while grieving the loss of both parents within months of each other.
The sentencing marks a significant chapter in Huger’s legal troubles, as she prepares to serve her time while balancing her reality TV career and public image.
