Mia Thornton, best known for her role on Real Housewives of Potomac, found herself in legal trouble in Georgia on Wednesday. She faces allegations of stealing furniture valued at several thousand dollars.
The 40-year-old, who recently ended her relationship with her boyfriend Incognito earlier this year, was captured on police body cam footage at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, according to TMZ.
Authorities subsequently booked her into Fulton County Jail, charging her with larceny.
Law enforcement officials claim Mia took items worth approximately $11,000 from a furnished condo she had been residing in.
Reports indicate that when the Bravo star vacated the property last month, she allegedly removed furniture and a television.
The condo owner filed a police report stating Mia moved out in the middle of the night without notice.

Mia and her ex-husband Gordon Thornton share son Jeremiah, 10, and daughter Juliana, eight.
She is also mom to an older son, Joshua, from a previous relationship.
In January she announced her split from ex-boyfriend Incognito.
The housewife — who sparked engagement rumors in January 2024 — and Incognito, who also goes by Inc, dated for about one year before Thornton she confirmed their breakup to The Shade Room.
‘Inc is my best friend and perfect in so many ways, but I have decided to focus on my children and maintaining a healthy co-parenting relationship with their father,’ she explained.Â
The two initially dated in high school.
Mia fueled speculation that she and Inc called it quits after she shared a New Year’s Eve selfie with ex Gordon.
‘NEW Year. New Beginnings. Cheers to living life to the fullest,’ she wrote to her 363,000 Instagram followers on Tuesday.
She added, ‘#momanddad #nye2025,’ and her handle has remained @MrsMiaThornton despite their separation in June 2023.

In July she shared a collection of family photos on Instagram with the caption, ‘Just an appreciation post to G. These past couple of weeks have been hard — Life Lifes and that’s life. But to have someone willing to jump in and say, I got YOU through it all…deserves PRAISE. Truly Grateful.’
Then in September she shared more cozy photos with he former spouse and wrote, ‘Happy Birthday to G — Grateful for the journey we share, raising our beautiful family and doing life together in our own way.
‘Wishing you love, joy, and everything you deserve today & always. Forever, MIAmor.’
In April she announced her exit from Real Housewives of Potomac and a move to Atlanta.
Sharing photos from a professional shoot, she captioned, ‘With every new season comes a new beginning and I have some news to share. My family and I have made the decision to relocate to Atlanta, and with that, I will not be returning to The Real Housewives of Potomac next season.
‘The past four seasons have been an unforgettable journey one filled with growth, lessons, and so many incredible memories. I want to thank Truly Original, Bravo, NBCUniversal, and Andy Cohen for believing in me and giving me the space to share my story.’
