Several weeks ago, Wendy and Eddie were taken into custody under allegations of fraud. Prosecutors accused them of staging a home burglary to fraudulently claim insurance money. Despite the serious nature of the charges, the Real Housewives of Potomac personalities appeared to be smiling in their booking photos.

On her podcast, Reasonably Shady, Gizelle opened up about her perspective on the unfolding events.

“I genuinely like Wendy,” Gizelle expressed. “Initially, I wanted to pin this entirely on Eddie, thinking ‘This was all Eddie’s doing,’ but… it’s just not possible to say that now,” she admitted.

“I do like Wendy,” said Gizelle. “And I wanted to be like, ‘This was all Eddie. This was all Eddie. Eddie did this,’” she said. “But … I can’t even say that.”

At one point, Robyn addressed the mug shot.

“I saw that picture. I was like, what on earth? Like, what?” said Robyn. “It was so shocking, just to see their mug shots. And then it was kind of weird…”

Gizelle started laughing.

“… because the mug shots were like a little sinister-looking,” Robyn continued.

“Why is Wendy laughing [in the photo]?” asked Gizelle.

“Why is there like a smirk?” said Robyn. “I don’t know. Okay, so my thinking is she probably was like, ‘Okay, well … I want to at least smile in my mug shot,’ but I think maybe they didn’t catch her at the right time … [They] just took it, like they didn’t even give her a chance to get ready.”

Gizelle laughed again.

“And then Eddie looked high,” said Robyn.

“As a kite,” Gizelle agreed. “Happy Eddie was a happy Eddie.”

Later on, Gizelle expressed her hope that Wendy is innocent.

“We do want to say, to protect ourselves, innocent until proven guilty,” she said. “And we hope, for the sake of everyone involved, innocent, right? But you know when they do charge you, they do their homework before they charge you … We have all seen on Instagram and on social media the emails between Eddie and Wendy. It don’t look good.”

Later, she reiterated her belief that Eddie was “high” during the mug shot.

“I’m sorry, Eddie. Love you, but you was high as a kite, sir,” she said. “Wendy and I have had our ups and downs, highs and lows over the years. Everyone knows that. But I have always … loved and respected Eddie. I’m like, ‘Eddie? No, not Eddie?’”
