The Cast of 'RHOP' and Their Adorable Pets

As major Bravo fans, you best believe that my dog and I are super excited for the upcoming season of The Real Housewives of Potomac, which premieres on October 11. In celebration of the show’s 11th season, we thought we’d spotlight some of the biggest animal lovers on RHOP. Without further ado, here are the RHOP stars and their furry (and feathered!) friends.

Dr. Wendy Osefo 

While this season of RHOP seems like it’ll be a rough (ruff?) one for Dr. Wendy Osefo, at least she has some super cute pups by her side. Osefo introduced her fans to her family’s newest furry friend, a Husky and a Pomeranian named Zen Wen III, in a 2025 Instagram upload. In the post’s caption, Osefo joked that her husband, Eddie Osefo, needed prayers from fans because he didn’t know she was bringing home another pup. 

“3 kids plus 2 dogs, Whew! Yall pray for Eddie, he had no idea we were getting another dog,” wrote Osefo in the caption. 

Stacey Rusch 

Stacey Rusch has shown how much she adores canine companions by being an Ambassador for Humane Rescue Alliance. She also owns her very own pup named Arlo. 

Ashley Darby 

Ashley Darby is a proud pet parent to a sweet kitten, whom she adopted in 2023, as reported by BravoTV. 

Monique Samuels

While Monique Samuels’ beloved parrot, T'Challa, has sadly passed away, she still owns a beautiful bird named Sekhmet.
