Wendy and Eddie Osefo Accused of Running Identity Fraud Scheme With 40 Credit Cards
Wendy and Eddie Osefo Accused of Running Identity Fraud Scheme With 40 Credit Cards – They Used Various Aliases!
Prosecutors claim that Real Housewives of Potomac star Wendy Osefo and her husband Eddie used aliases and managed more than 40 credit and debit cards as their fraud case continues to intensify.
Defense attorneys for the Osefos argued that Carroll County prosecutors were embarking on a “fishing expedition” by seeking additional banking records. The couple was indicted last month on charges that they staged a burglary at their home to falsely claim insurance losses, and their legal team is asking the court to quash the subpoenas.
Prosecutors fired back in newly filed documents, alleging that Wendy and Eddie have “approximately 40 credit and/or debit cards, some of which are believed to be in company names,” and that the pair has used the aliases “Pam Oliver” and “Eddie Hennessy” in what they claim was a “deliberate attempt to mask their identity.”
They also accused Wendy of falsely denying that she used PayPal, Venmo, or Cash App to pay for jewelry.
“The state anticipates seeing purchases as well as returns on the financial records,” prosecutors wrote. “Additionally, the State expects such documentation to show a pattern of excessive spending, supporting motive in this case. The State avers that insurance fraud is a financial crime, and in that, the amount of debt owed by the Osefos, jointly, individually and by the businesses that they own, is highly relevant to their motive.” Eddie Osefo’s attorney, Joseph Murtha, pushed back, calling the requests overly broad and questioning their timing.
He said prosecutors were “looking for something they haven’t figured out after 18 months of investigating,” adding that police never contacted the couple “from the time of the break-in until they were charged criminally.”
Circuit Court Judge Brian DeLeonardo will consider the subpoena dispute during a status hearing set for December 2. Investigators accessed several Gmail accounts tied to Wendy and Eddie — plus a third Gmail address that didn’t match either of their names — using a search and seizure warrant served on Google. They also pulled data from Wendy’s Instagram accounts @thedrwendyshow and @wendyosefo after noticing she wore a ring she had previously reported stolen.
Additional warrants targeted her Apple ID, a TextNow number, and home security accounts with Ring Protect and ADT. Prosecutors further collected bank records from Ally Bank, American Express, and Capital One, along with information from luxury retailers like Van Cleef, Louis Vuitton, Saks, and Ascot Diamonds.
The Osefos were indicted by a Carroll County grand jury on seven counts of insurance fraud, eight counts of conspiracy to commit insurance fraud, and one count of making a false statement to a police officer. The charges stem from an alleged burglary at their home on April 7, 2024. At the time, the couple told deputies that thieves ransacked their bedroom and closets while they vacationed in Jamaica, stealing roughly $450,000 in designer handbags and jewelry.
Authorities raised doubts early on. Court filings state that investigators determined several of the items reported stolen had actually been returned to stores for refunds prior to the alleged break-in. Prosecutors also wrote that the investigation “revealed the Osefos to be burdened by substantial debt.”
The couple was released on $50,000 bond each. Although the alleged burglary hasn’t been a major storyline on the currently airing Season 10 of RHOP, Wendy did say in a recent episode that she and Eddie were spending approximately $100,000 on renovations to their home.
At BravoCon last weekend, Wendy addressed the situation briefly while speaking onstage. “It’s an unfortunate situation, and right now I can’t say too much, but I will say when the time is right I will share my story with everyone,” she told fans. “And for now they’re just allegations, so we will continue to push forward.”
She ended by thanking viewers for their support.

It’s a Funeral With a Clock
Editor’s note: The below interview contains spoilers up to The Pitt Season 2 Episode 6.
Now that HBO’s The Pitt has returned for Season 2, it’s clear things are only just beginning to ramp up for the doctors and nurses working in the emergency department of the fictional Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center. While the first several hours of this Fourth of July shift were admittedly quiet, that’s no longer the case as of the season’s sixth hour of R. Scott Gemmill, John Wells, and Noah Wyle‘s medical drama, “12:00 P.M.” Another hospital is mysteriously reporting a “Code Black,” resulting in their patients being diverted elsewhere, and one of the ED’s most frequent occupants, Louie (Ernest Harden Jr.), has just coded seemingly out of nowhere.
Ahead of The Pitt‘s return, Collider had the opportunity to speak with the show’s creators and cast alike about some of Season 2’s most pivotal moments over the first six episodes, including Wyle. Over the course of the interview, which you can watch above or read below, the show’s lead and EP delves into what Dr. Robby is emotionally navigating ahead of his planned three-month sabbatical, whether the tension between Robby and Dr. Langdon (Patrick Ball) is going to boil over before the end of shift, the deeper meaning behind The Pitt‘s staff memorial for Louie at the close of Episode 6, and more.
COLLIDER: We can’t start talking about Season 2 without talking about how Dr. Robby is coming into this shift, which is that he’s leaving the next day for a three-month sabbatical, as far as we know. For you, and in playing the character, do you feel like having that storyline hovering over the shift is impacting him at all? Does it feel like a kid on the last day of school, or is he just determined to get through this shift one way or another?
NOAH WYLE: I think it’s all of that. It was a wonderful device to come up with to allow the story to have something very specific that he was going through on this particular day while the day was challenging and had all sorts of obstacles that would potentially keep him from accomplishing his goal, which is to get out on the road before it gets too late.
This trip is Robby’s curated form of self-help that he has come up with for himself in lieu of going through the more traditional routes of finding a therapist and adhering to some of the prescriptive advice he’s giving his staff on the other side of their experience with this mass casualty event, and their own PTSD. So the trip becomes symbolic, both for the character’s avoidance of a healthier mode of treatment and maybe evidence that he’s not as well-adjusted as he’s coming off. And as the season progresses, that trip gets looked at with a finer and finer lens.
Noah Wyle Teases Whether Robby and Langdon’s Tension Is Going To Boil Over by the End of ‘The Pitt’ Season 2
“They’re terrific characters in that their relationship is extremely complex.”
To talk about avoidance, it seems pretty clear that Robby was hoping that the timing of his sabbatical would overlap with Langdon’s return. I think he even says as much at one point. We see Langdon make the effort to broach a conversation, Robby shuts him down early on, but then, as the shift continues, they’re forced into each other’s orbit. Langdon obviously has the patient with the necrotizing fasciitis, and that pulls Robby in, whether he wants to be involved or not. That tension between them, though — what can you talk about in terms of how that’s really simmering in the background of Season 2, and is there any point at which it’s going to boil over?
WYLE: I hope so. You can’t keep these tantric lovers apart for too long. They’re terrific characters in that their relationship is extremely complex. Langdon’s addiction wasn’t just a moral failing of Langdon. It was a personal betrayal to his mentor in Robby and a breach of their friendship and the honesty that they shared. That’s one way of framing it. Another way of framing it is Robby fucked up. He was supposed to look out for his number one pupil, and under his watch, this guy developed a painkiller addiction in practiced medicine, and Robby was totally oblivious. So, who’s really at fault here?
Then you look at it through another frame, and you see Langdon’s coming back, having already walked through the therapeutic road. He’s humbled himself. He’s faced his demons, and he’s ready to come back and rebuild his life, all of which Robby hasn’t done yet. So to a certain extent, he represents kryptonite. It’s a relationship that, as the day progresses and they are thrown into each other’s company, all of those begin to kind of redefine themselves.
‘The Pitt’ Season 2 Stars Tease Why “the Day Just Keeps Getting Worse” After Episode 4
Supriya Ganesh and Taylor Dearden also discuss what fans can expect from Mel’s reunion with Langdon and the possibility of a Mohan/Abbot romance.
Continuing this thread of talking about relationships with Robby, I picked up on some vibes between him and Noelle Hastings early on. I think fans will be curious to see if that develops. I did think it was interesting that Dana warns Noelle against getting involved with this man at this particular point, especially, as we’ve been talking about, he’s about to leave for three months. Is this meant to be maybe a little fun fling? Is it potentially more? What can you tease about where that is heading?
WYLE: Well, again, on one hand, it’s titillating. Robby’s been having a social life. It’s so exciting and probably speaks to him not being so bad off. Then you look at it for another frame, and you see somebody who’s unable to have a relationship that lasts more than six weeks, who only wants to mine it for the most superficial aspects, and who, when confronted with the opportunity to go deeper or more intimate, takes an escape route each and every time, and has very few personal connections to anybody.
We very rarely ever hear about anybody socializing, if ever, with Robby outside of work. We don’t know anything about him outside of work. And as the season progresses, that lone wolf, kind of do-what-he-wants thing that seems so cool and almost enviable in the beginning, we start to realize, is what’s probably throwing his life so far out of balance, is he has no offset for the work that he’s doing and for what he takes in and takes on through that work.
Noah Wyle Reveals the Meaning of ‘The Pitt’s Tribute to Louie in Season 2 Episode 6
“Robby is able to give the frame around the picture…”
To wrap up, there is a scene in Episode 6 where the staff gets together to memorialize a lost patient. It feels like this shift is often so frenetic and hectic, and everyone is being pulled in a million different directions, that it’s rare that everyone gets to be in a room together to have a moment of quiet contemplation. Robby shares a lot of really moving and poignant details in their debriefing, and I was curious about the experience of bringing everyone together in that room and having that scene, because it feels really important.
WYLE: I was sort of taken with this notion of, when you know somebody, but you only know a fragment of them, you’re getting a glimpse of them in this moment of time that you share with them, you may get an impression, but it’s part of a mosaic that builds up a life or builds up somebody’s story. All of the staff know Louie. Louie is a frequent flier who has been coming in for years. We’ve been patching him up and sending him back out and listening to this joke and listening to that anecdote, but nobody’s really taken the full measure of the man. Nobody’s had the opportunity to.
So, in Episode 6, what we try to do is, from each person’s limited perspective, they fill in a piece to a puzzle that has been on their family table for years, but nobody really understands what the picture looks like and why it looks like it does. Robby is able to give the frame around the picture and say, “This was a great guy who had a real tragedy happen. As many people do when they face this kind of tragedy, it derailed his progress and his trajectory in a way that we all tried to help, but ultimately got the better of him. And as much time as we would love to take to confer this man’s dignity and to wrap up his life, we’ve got eight more Louies out there that we can still save.” So, even though this is a funeral, it’s a funeral with a clock.

Kandi Burruss Claims Todd Tucker Lives “Rent-Free” In Her Home
Kandi Burruss is spilling new details about her divorce from Todd Tucker. According to new docs obtained by TMZ, Kandi claims Todd has been shacking up in her guest house since they separated. On top of that Burruss adds that he hasn’t been providing financial support for their two kids, Ace and Blaze Tucker.

Kandi Burruss Exposes Todd Tucker For Allegedly Squatting In Her Guest House
Kandi Burruss isn’t holding back on Todd Tucker. In new docs, she’s airing him out for not paying to stay in her guest house or help with their kids. The former ‘RHOA’ star says Tucker has been living in her Atlanta guest house ever since they split in November 2025. Burruss says the property belongs to her and was purchased before their marriage. Additionally, Kandi notes that Todd hasn’t covered a single expense for the home’s upkeep — that includes utilities, gas, lawn care, water, pest control, and alarm system fees.
That’s not all! She also accuses her estranged husband of not providing for their son Ace and daughter Blaze. Although he presents himself as an “active dad” on social media, Burruss says he hasn’t pitched in to help pay for their tuition fees, school supplies, or child support.
Where Is Todd In All Of This?
So far, Todd hasn’t responded to Kandi’s claims, but he has continued to post on Instagram. Most recently, he shared a photo of his son Ace after what appeared to be his basketball team’s championship win. Other photos showed Ace posing with the team on the court, followed by a video of him shooting the ball. Todd captioned the post, “@acetucker stay ballin!”
Kandi Doubles Down On Todd Avoiding Financial Responsibility
Although Kandi is making fresh claims about Todd’s lack of financial help, she has criticized him before for not supporting their children. In January, the reality star filed court documents requesting a hearing to settle parenting time and child support. She said their kids have “significant monthly expenses,” including a nanny, tuition, extracurricular activities, birthday parties, medical bills, and daily needs. She claims Todd hasn’t paid his fair share and has left the financial responsibility solely on her, according to Us Weekly. Despite that, Kandi says he has traveled internationally multiple times for vacations. Burruss also pointed out that Tucker works as a self-employed entrepreneur and has the means to support their children. She added that he doesn’t contribute to the mortgage or cover expenses for their martial home.
“Tucker does not exercise parenting time with the minor children on a significant basis despite the façade of his two-to-three-minute social media videos chronicling his ‘Daddy Daycare’ on his social media platforms,” Kandi noted in her filing.

2026’s Most Bonkers Horror Movie Is Going Bananas on Streaming
We might only be just over a month into 2026, but the horror genre is already continuing its impressive streak of the past couple of years. Already, YouTuber Markiplier has surprised audiences with the impressive Iron Lung, director Sam Raimi has returned to the genre that made him an icon with the brilliantly bloody Send Help, and 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple debuted to enormous critical fanfare. Sure, the likes of The Strangers: Chapter 3 and Return to Silent Hill prove that not every horror is destined to be a hit, but the quality on show in theaters in just six weeks is remarkably impressive.
Hidden among these notable names is an early contender for the most underrated horror movie of 2026: Primate. Johannes Roberts‘ latest horror project follows “a group of friends’ tropical vacation turns into a terrifying, primal tale of horror and survival,” and stars Academy Award-nominee Troy Kotsur, Johnny Sequoyah, and more in a frightening flick that has captured plenty of critical praise.
In Jeff Ewing‘s review of the movie for Collider, he said, “Primate isn’t aiming to take the crown as the next elevated horror contender. It’s not answering life’s deepest questions or following layered characters on a journey of self-discovery. Primate is aimed at a singular cinematic experience, and that’s to weave a gory tale of youngsters besieged by an unhinged chimp. That level of focus proves wildly successful, because Primate rocks.”
After Primate’s arrival on digital on February 10, the movie has instantly found its place among the upper echelons of the streaming charts. At the time of writing, the movie ranks #4 on the iTunes charts in the U.S., outperformed only by Zootopia 2, Marty Supreme, and Sydney Sweeney’s erotic adaptation, The Housemaid. Primate will receive a physical release on DVD and Blu-ray on April 21.
How Did ‘Primate’ Perform at the Box Office?
As the theatrical run of 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple has proven, critical success in horror doesn’t always equal box office triumph. This is, sadly, also the fate that befell Primate. Against a reported production budget of $24 million, Roberts’ gory flick returned only $39.7 million in global revenue before it finally tapped out and turned to the digital charts, where it is already making quite an impression.
Primate is one of the most-streamed movies on the U.S. iTunes charts. Make sure to stay tuned to Collider for the latest streaming stories.

Try Not to Cry During HBO’s Most Emotional Goodbye Yet
Editor’s note: The below recap contains spoilers for The Pitt Season 2 Episode 6.
A third of The Pitt Season 2 is already over. In that time, audiences have watched Dr. Michael “Robby” Robinavitch (Noah Wyle) struggle through his last shift before a three-month sabbatical. Not only does he have to tolerate his pushy replacement, Dr. Baran Al-Hashimi (Sepideh Moafi), but Dr. Frank Langdon (Patrick Ball) is back from rehab and looking to have a long-overdue conversation. Over the last four hours, Robby has managed to keep Langdon away from him, only for it to fall apart in Episode 5 as the ER is hit with an influx of patients from another hospital. As last week’s episode ends, lovable patient Louie Cloverfield (Ernest Harden Jr.) has just flatlined. Will he make it through the next hour, “12:00 P.M. – 1:00 PM”?
‘The Pitt’ Season 2 Episode 6 Begins With a Tragedy
Episode 6 begins with Robby doing chest compressions on Louie. An attempt is made to shock his heart back into rhythm, but it doesn’t work. Instead, Louie’s lungs start filling up with blood that spills out of his mouth during compressions. Meanwhile, Dana Evans (Katherine LaNasa) continues training Emma Nolan (Laëtitia Hollard) when a phone call summons them to Louie’s room. Robby shakes his head at Dana because it’s not looking good. Louis is hemorrhaging from liver failure, and Robby tells Langdon there’s nothing else they can do. Time of death is called, and everyone is silent for a moment before going their separate ways. Nurse Perlah Alawi (Amielynn Abellera) looks particularly heartbroken.
In another bay, Victoria Javadi (Shabana Azeez) and others are talking to Jackson Davis (Zack Morris), who’s now able to speak. His sister, Jada (Erin Croom), wants to know what happened. Jackson mentions hearing someone in the college library not wanting him to pass the bar exam. Confused, his sister decides to call his law school friends to find out what happened. As we later find out, Jackson’s been dealing with hallucinations for months, long before he was tased, so he’s put on an involuntary psych hold. Meanwhile, nurse Princess Dela Cruz (Kristin Villanueva) visits the cancer patient, Roxie Hamler (Brittany Allen), who doesn’t have the strength to get off her bedpan. She talks about being married for 20 years and how difficult it is for her husband, Paul Hamler (Taylor Handley). Just then, Cassie McKay (Fiona Dourif) comes in to check on Roxie and give her something for her pain.
News of Louie’s death is starting to spread among the doctors and nurses, but there’s no time to mourn now. Dr. Al-Hashimi is talking to Dr. Mel King (Taylor Dearden) and Dr. Samira Mohan (Supriya Ganesh) about a patient when Robby pulls her aside to discuss discharging a patient to make way for more coming in. Dr. Dennis Whitaker (Gerran Howell) is crushed when he hears about Louie and goes running to his bedside, where Langdon is there and fills him in on what happened. They find a photo of Louie with a woman and child. If he had a family, he never mentioned it. There’s an emergency contact listed for him, and because Whitaker was Louie’s primary physician, Langdon offers to let him make the call, but Whitaker’s too heartbroken to do it. Sadly, when Langdon calls the number, the phone rings at Dana’s desk. The ER was his emergency contact.
Langdon Wants to Make Up With Robby in ‘The Pitt’ Season 2 Episode 6
Brandon Lee, a motorcycle acrobat, is wheeled in on a stretcher, but because he was wearing a helmet, he’s at least conscious. (Did you hear that, Dr. Robby?) Robby talks to him about his bike as the others work on him. The patient can move all his limbs, so what’s wrong? His knee is ripped apart, with the joint visible. As they’re leaving, Robby hears that Langdon’s patient with necrotizing fasciitis, Debbie Cohen (Mara Klein), is going to need an amputation above the knee.
Meanwhile, Whitaker pours his heart out to Dr. Trinity Santos (Isa Briones), who is so tired that she can barely stifle a yawn. Dana sends them to do something else while she and Emma clean Louie’s body. They talk about the possibility of his family existing. If he’s not claimed, his body will be cremated, with the remains stored alongside other unclaimed patients. Later, Robby asks Whitaker if he’s okay. Whitaker admits he had a relative who was an alcoholic, but at least Louie seemed happy. Robby’s here if he wants to talk, and walks off after they share a fist-bump.
Al-Hashimi and Mohan, along with Mel, check in on prison inmate Gus Varney (John Lee Ames). It’ll be a liquid diet for him for the next few weeks while his jaw heals, but they’re concerned that the levels of protein in his blood are too low. Meanwhile, in the break room, Langdon tells Dana that no one reached out to him when he was in rehab, but asks if the patient who punched her last season was arrested. He was, but Dana didn’t want to go through with pressing charges. Since Langdon is going through the 12 steps, he tries to apologize to Dana, but she tells him they’re good. He wants to talk to Robby, but today isn’t the best day for that.
Dr. Robby Is in Even More Danger Than ‘The Pitt’ Fans May Have Realized
Why can’t Robby take his own advice?
Al-Hashimi tells Robby that Gus needs to be admitted to one of the hospital’s rooms upstairs. He’s not sure what the hospital can do for him that can’t be done at the prison, but Al-Hashimi is concerned that he’s not eating enough. Robby doesn’t think they have the beds to spare, but says he’ll call the prison to see what food they’re serving. Still, Al-Hashimi says they can treat him better here. Robby puts his foot down on admitting Gus because they can’t take everyone. Meanwhile, Paul Hamler asks his wife, Roxie, if she’s ready to go home. She doesn’t look so sure, but he says he’ll be by her side the whole time. Roxie’s worried he needs a break, but he won’t hear it. She tells Paul to go ahead and get the house ready, and she’ll be right behind him in the transport ambulance. He reluctantly agrees, and she’s given a painkiller, but before she’s moved, Roxie insists on staying in the ER instead.
The ER’s Doctors and Nurses Honor Louie’s Memory in ‘The Pitt’ Season 2 Episode 6
The ER’s Deaf patient, Harlow Graham (Jessica Flores), is finally seen by Princess, who can sign a little. She’s introduced to Santos and signs about having a bad headache. There might also be a stomachache, and she may have passed out, but Precious isn’t sure she’s interpreting the patient correctly. Frustrated, Santos walks away until an interpreter can come in, leaving Princess to apologize to Harlow. Robby and others get to work on treating Brandon’s open knee wound. Robby asks where Santos is and is disappointed to hear that she’s probably catching up on her charting — and he’s definitely not happy when she uses the AI app, which incorrectly reports that a patient had a history of appendectomies. Robby confronts Al-Hashimi about it, but Al-Hashimi blames Santos for not proofreading her charts first.
Dana and Emma get Louie’s body ready in a separate room in case anyone comes in to see him. When Emma asks Dana why she keeps coming back to the ER, she has no answer. The truth emerges moments later, when Dana checks on Gus, who’s about to be discharged and taken back to prison, and learns they have some things in common. Suddenly, his pulse oxygen levels drop; now, he’ll need to stay. Dana looks relieved, and when Robby asks her what she did, she feigns ignorance. Episode 6 ends with a dozen doctors and nurses in the visiting room with Louie’s body while sharing stories about him. Langdon pulls out the photo Louis had in his belongings, and Robby reveals the truth: it was his wife, Rhonda. He didn’t want kids, yet Rhonda wore him down, but then, a week before the baby was due, Rhonda and their unborn child were killed in a car crash.

Bold and the Beautiful: Will Stands Up to Ivy’s Relentless Bullying & Fights Back
Bold and the Beautiful reveals Will Spencer (Crew Morrow) was already floored when he saw Melissa Dylan (Sydney Bullock) at Il Giardino. When Will shook the truth out of Dylan, she admitted she only lied because Ivy Forrester (Ashleigh Brewer) made her. I think Will is about to hit back hard in defense of Dylan.
Let’s talk about how Electra Forrester (Laneya Grace) is going to be in for a shock. I think that Will’s going to clap back at her aunt Ivy for her horrible bullying of Dylan.
Ivy Forrester Red Flags and Dylan’s Struggle for Survival Bold and the Beautiful
Things are about to explode. We’re heading into the last two weeks of sweeps, so lots of big action is coming. Ivy was waving red flags left and right this week when she told Will and Electra that they needed to forget about Dylan.
Ivy practically told Electra to stop talking about Dylan. She said they would probably never hear from her again and that would be the best thing. Meanwhile, Will was shocked to find out Dylan is back to living in her car. She got a job at Il Giardino the same day he saw her there.
To be fair, Dylan was thinking about Ivy’s threat that she better never tell Will or Electra what they talked about. Dylan did try to stick to that; she tried to lie and cover, but Will demanded the truth. Dylan finally cracked and said, “It’s Ivy.”
This week, Will is going to hear firsthand what happened with Ivy from Dylan. Then we’re going to see it come from the other side again because it sounds like Ivy is going to accuse Will of being inappropriate—which is Ivy’s new go-to word.
The Beach House Showdown and Electra’s Shocking Ultimatum on B&B
Will is going to bring Dylan back to the beach house and then text Electra to come over ASAP. It may be that Will wanted to talk to just Electra, but Ivy may tag along, especially if she finds out that Dylan is there. Ivy is going to tell Electra it’s time she learned the truth about Dylan and Will.
Ivy is going to tell Electra what she saw when she was snooping and basically trespassing. We all know Dylan fell into Will’s lap while she was wearing her ballet clothes. It was innocent enough and nothing happened. It looked saucier in the promo than it was in the episode.
Of course, Ivy doesn’t see anything innocent about it. I’m sure she is going to make Will look really bad to Electra, but probably put most of the heat onto Dylan. Will is going to be stunned when Electra hits him with an ultimatum by the end of the week. I’m guessing Ivy’s going to be as toxic as possible during this interaction.
Critiquing the Writing: Brad Bell’s Impact on Bold and the Beautiful Character History
I really used to like Ivy. This writing for her is out of character and over-the-top. It’s Brad Bell twisting characters around in a moment to accomplish something in the storyline rather than finding a more graceful way to make it happen without violating character history.
Based on what Ivy says, I expect Electra may say that Will has to cut Dylan out of his life 100%. We all know Will genuinely loves Electra, but if she believes Ivy over him, he may look at Electra in a different light. Plus, Will hates that Dylan is back to living in her car.
I don’t think Will is going to handle that very well. Everything Ivy saw was done at Will’s invitation, and he might hit back with his own ultimatum. We know from official Bold and the Beautiful 2026 spoilers that Electra and Will are going to have relationship issues.
Will Spencer Defends His Integrity Against Ivy’s Accusations
I think Will is probably going to flip out on Ivy because she’s making these accusations that Dylan is behaving inappropriately. This means Ivy is also accusing Will of cheating and wrongdoing. As far as he’s concerned, he and Dylan didn’t do anything wrong.
Will fed some spare food to a jobless girl who probably couldn’t even afford to eat because she’s so broke. He insisted that Dylan help him babysit Hayes Forrester (Bryan Garlick). Will hit the roof when Ivy accuses him of betraying Electra because, in his mind, he was being a nice guy. Will kick Ivy out of his house and make it clear she’s no longer welcome.
There is also a legit concern that Will might have some sort of low-key crush on Dylan even though he is in love with Electra. We saw those weird flashbacks Will was having of Dylan dancing and in her swimsuit. That suggests there may be something more than friendly interest.

The Dumpster Diving Scandal and Teriyaki Chicken Gate on B&B
I wonder if Deke Sharpe (Harrison Cone) tells Will he found Dylan eating out of the dumpster? If he does, I think that’s going to make Will even more likely to lash out at Ivy and Electra. Remember, Electra made a big deal and said it wasn’t okay for Will to feed Dylan the leftover chicken—that was “teriyaki chicken gate.”
Will may see, after learning she was eating from the dumpster, that if he hadn’t fed Dylan, she might have gone hungry that night. He won’t tolerate that. Will will be horrified to learn that Dylan was eating from the trash because Ivy was sneaking, assuming, and making threats.
Will may also put his foot down about his own house. He may tell Dylan she’s welcome to stay, but Ivy needs to go and never come back. He may also assume Electra asked Ivy to spy on him, which could cause more issues. He may say Electra doesn’t get to make ultimatums about who lives in his house.
Katie Logan’s Advice on Bold: Is Electra Forrester Who She Seems?
Will may go talk to his mom, Katie Logan (Heather Tom), to get advice. She thought Will being charitable to Dylan was very nice. It’s a little strange she’s staying at Will’s house, but if it’s Dylan living in her car and being unsafe versus safe in Will’s guest room, that’s better in the short term.
Katie may let Will vent and then suggest that maybe Electra is not as nice as they thought she was. Yes, she got a raw deal with the Remy Pryce (Christian Weissmann) situation and Luna Nozawa (Lisa Yamada), but otherwise, Electra has had a silver spoon in her mouth. She’s been very threatening to Dylan when they’re alone.
Either Electra is really two-faced or the writing is super inconsistent. I don’t think Electra is going to get the outcome from the ultimatum that she’s hoping for. As for Ivy, I’m hoping Will reads her for filth for trespassing, spying, and bullying a homeless person.
The Reality of Dylan’s Finances and Ivy’s “Generosity”
I saw people on soap social media saying Ivy gave her money. Ivy handed her a little stack of cash and said, “Fill up your car, drive, and keep going.” For reference, it costs about 60 bucks to fill up a sedan at California prices these days.
Ivy offered her a small stack of bills, maybe a couple of hundred bucks. Either way, Dylan is not dumpster diving for fun. She clearly has no money, and Will is not going to let the bullying continue. I hope he reads Ivy the Riot Act.

James Van Der Beek’s Former Employers, Sony Pictures, Receive Backlash

In the wake of Van Der Beek’s passing, a fundraiser was launched to support his wife and children after mounting medical bills reportedly created financial hardship.
The campaign indicated the family was struggling to maintain their home while covering education expenses for their children.
The deceased actor had previously been candid about the toll of his illness, revealing in November that he sold personal keepsakes from “Dawson’s Creek” to help offset costs.
However, as The Blast reported, after the fundraiser went public, some critics directed their frustration at Sony Pictures, questioning why the studio had not stepped in to assist the actor, given the franchise’s long-term success.
One angry critic wrote, “F-ck @Sony for not even offering to help James Van Der Beek during his time of need.”
The GoFundMe has since gained momentum, surpassing 20,000 donations, per The Blast. Several celebrities, including Zoë Saldaña and Derek Hough, contributed in support.
