Gisele Bryant: Karen Huger’s Alleged ‘Drunk Calls’ Stop After DUI Arrest

“Real Housewives of Potomac” star Giselle Bryant says co-star Karen Huger’s alleged “drunken calls” have stopped since her DUI arrest earlier this year.

“I really miss them,” Bryant jokingly complains when talking to them Page Six “Virtual Reali-Tea,” adding that such calls were “a lot of fun.”

“She hasn’t done that in a long time,” says the Reasonably Shady podcast co-host.

“RHOP” Season 9 premiered last month with Bryant, 54, dating longtime nemesis Huger, 61, after the latter was was charged with driving while intoxicated after a high-speed accident in March.

In subsequent episodes, Huger was vague about the incident.

But her co-stars, namely cast member Jacqueline Blake, claimed that the self-proclaimed “Grande Dame” had a history of calling her girlfriends after drinking and allegedly did so even after being arrested for drinking and driving.

“We get a lot of drunken calls from Karen at three in the morning,” Bryant claims, describing Huger’s supposed pattern when he wants to talk drunk.

“You never know what you’re going to hear, you never know what she’s going to say.”

On the Oct. 27 episode of “RHOP,” Mia Thornton claimed she received a “dial” from Huger after a night of partying in Washington, D.C.

Thornton came to the conclusion that the founder of the fragrance La Dame cheated on her husband Ray Huger, because the call allegedly took place in the presence of another male companion.

“That’s for Karen to explain,” says Bryant, who left the stage before Thornton, 39, shared his story with the rest of the cast.

However, “My word” the author is certain that Karen’s alleged encounter with her driver — known among the “RHOP” ladies as “Blue Eyes” — is over.

“I think we’re past Blue Eyes,” Bryant says, adding that Karen’s wife has been Karen’s support after her run-ins with the law.

“Ray is always very supportive of her,” she emphasizes. “And I’m happy she has him.”
