Karen Huger’s Shocking “Expose”: Revealing Jacqueline’s Boyfriend’s Dark Past!

Season 9 of The Real Housewives of Potomac has seen some fiery confrontations, with Jacqueline Blake, a friend of the show and Mia Thornton’s long-time bestie, taking the stage. Jacqueline was introduced back in Season 7 as Mia’s confidante but took a hiatus in Season 8 following a tense fallout with Mia. Now back in Season 9, airing in October 2024, Jacqueline is once again fiercely loyal to Mia and prepared to defend her friend at any cost—even if it means clashing with Potomac’s Grande Dame, Karen Huger.

The drama escalated as Jacqueline joined Mia in discussing Karen’s March 2024 DUI charge, a topic that has caused plenty of friction among the cast. When Jacqueline added fuel to the fire, she quickly learned that Karen isn’t one to back down. In response, Karen unleashed a stinging retort by bringing up details about Jacqueline’s on-again, off-again relationship with Patrick Ojong, her children’s father. Karen’s revelation caught Jacqueline completely off-guard, suggesting she had some inside information Jacqueline didn’t expect to be shared.

Jacqueline, who is technically single but in a complicated situation with Patrick—nicknamed “Mr. PP” by Karen—has two daughters with him, Ava and Blakely. Their relationship status was a hot topic at Wendy Osefo’s 40th birthday brunch in Episode 5, where Jacqueline revealed they were working on co-parenting and possibly redefining their relationship. Just as Jacqueline was explaining this, Karen took the opportunity to drop some scandalous information, claiming Patrick had 25 convictions despite his role as a police officer.

The revelation left the group stunned and Jacqueline visibly shaken. Karen questioned if Jacqueline’s reconciliation with Patrick happened “before or after” these alleged convictions and hinted at whether Jacqueline supported him through it all. In response, Jacqueline clarified in a confessional that Patrick had been involved in an internal investigation within his police department but was never criminally convicted. Although he did lose his job, he soon secured a new position with the City of Hyattsville in Maryland.

Jacqueline, clearly upset that Karen brought up such sensitive information in front of the group, decided to fight back. She reminded Karen of her own legal troubles, accusing her of having “two DUIs.” Karen quickly corrected her, insisting she only had one, and calling Jacqueline a “dingbat” in a heated exchange that left both women standing their ground.

With every episode, tensions among the cast intensify, as loyalty and grudges clash over every meal and outing. New episodes of The Real Housewives of Potomac air Sundays at 8 p.m. EST on Bravo, where viewers can watch these fierce personalities continue to confront and confound one another.
