Bravo postpones premiere of Wife Swap The Real Housewives Edition due to legal controversy

The premiere of Bravo’s reality show “Wife Swap: The Real Housewives Edition” has been postponed due to legal issues involving Dr. Wendy Osefo and her husband, Eddie Osefo. Originally scheduled for October 14, the new premiere date is set for October 21 at 9 p.m. ET.

Reasons Behind the Delay

The delay is attributed to the recent indictment of the Osefos in Carroll County, Maryland, for insurance fraud. Bravo has decided to delay their episode, which was planned as the opener, and feature another episode instead.

New Premiere Details

The first episode will now spotlight “Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” star Angie Katsanevas. Katsanevas will swap lives with Lindsay Flake, a former Mormon living off the grid. This episode will maintain the show’s format of pairing “Real Housewives” stars with women from different lifestyle backgrounds.
