TV star suspended after groping charge
Bravo has suspended The Real Housewives of Potomac star Michael Darby (pictured) after he was charged with groping a cameraman.
The cameraman said in charging documents that the show was filming in Potomac, Maryland, on September 1 when Darby “grabbed and groped” his backside, WRC-TV in Washington reported.
Darby is charged with second-degree assault and fourth-degree sexual contact.
In the documents, the cameraman said that “as I turned around [Darby] smiled and gave me a flirtatious look.”
He told Darby to stop and then told his supervisor. The cameraman pressed charges three days later.
The 59-year-old Darby is married to Ashley Darby. Both are cast members on the Bravo show that’s filmed in the Washington area. —
