After mysteriously selling off his restaurants overnight, Michael Darby, the husband of 'Real Housewives of Potomac' star Ashley Darby is ready to dip his feet into a new business venture — a production house. The recently aired episode of 'RHOP' featured Michael revealing to his heavily pregnant wife, his desire of setting up a production company and becoming a producer.

Michael explained to Ashley that he wanted to get into the world of movies and showbiz by producing and funding movies. Thankfully, Ashley was totally against Michael's new business idea and pointed to him how venturing into producing movies while she's just about to have another baby might not be a good idea. She also urged Michael to think carefully about his business moves.
