Reality Star Told BOSSIP That The DUI Experience Helped Make Her Who She Is Today

Real Housewives of Potomac’s Karen Huger is speaking out about the time cops popped her for driving while intoxicated.

Huger was arrested nearly 10 years ago for drunk driving after she said she’d had a celebratory dinner and was on her way back to her Potomac, Md. home.

“I pulled over,” the mom of two exclusively told BOSSIP. “Technically I wasn’t driving, I was pulled over into a parked area where you should not park. I turned off the car and I called my husband. However, the teddy bear cops found me first, and I collected my DUI.”

The reality show star later pled guilty to “Driving While Impaired By Alcohol” and received probation.

But Huger – who has become infamous for her love of etiquette and proper manners – hasn’t let the incident get her down, and said the experience helped make her the woman she is today.

“I said when I took this project, I own everything about me that makes me, me,” she said. “What makes me this woman people can look at. You have ups and downs, curves. The thing is, in life, you still stand, and I’m still standing.”
