The grand dame of Potomac aka Karen Huger is someone the fans of 'Real Housewives of Potomac' love and adore. With her charming personality and wise words, Karen has managed to amass quite a strong fan-following since appearing on Bravo's hit reality show. So, when Karen declared that she isn't a fan of the new housewife, Dr Wendy Osefo, fans began wondering why.

Season 5 of 'RHOP' saw Dr Wendy join the housewives as the newest addition to their clique. But Dr Wendy is far from your typical housewife. This sassy lady appears to be the epitome of beauty with brains. According to her Bravo bio, Wendy reportedly made history by becoming the first Black woman to earn a PhD in Public Affairs/Community Development. While she is not filming for the hit reality show, Wendy can be seen teaching at Johns Hopkins University alongside sitting on the board of several organizations. Wendy's very impressive academic background and accomplishments somehow failed to impress our resident grand dame, who after her meeting with Wendy at a party, confesses that she wasn't impressed with Wendy. The housewife reveals that she has known Wendy even before the show, since they both sit on the board of an organization, and claims that she isn't very fond of the new housewife.

As soon as fans heard that, they began wondering if there's more to the new housewife than what meets the eye since Karen declared that she isn't impressed with Wendy. A fan tweeted, "Karen not "impressed" with Wendy has piqued my interest... What did she do KAREN???? #RHOP."



 

Another fan wrote, "Now Miss Wendy? What y’all think she gon be serving this season?! Karen said she wasn’t impressed so I’m worried a little “It’s Dr. Wendy. If you’re gonna address me, get it right SWEETIE!” THAT was IT! #RHOP."



 

Another fan commented, "If Karen is not impressed with Wendy I doubt I will be Js #RHOP."



 

Some fans felt that maybe Karen might be jealous of Wendy and that's why she resorted to declaring that she isn't impressed with the new housewife. A fan pointed, "Unacomplished Karen isn't impressed by Dr Wendy Osefo, professor at John Hopkins and political commentator. Okay gorl. We smell the hate. #RHOP."



 

Another fan echoed similar thoughts with, "#RHOP Karen isn’t impressed with my girl Wendy, but she quickly ran up to Wendy to tell her she knew her etc...sounds like a fan to me chile...."
