Eddie Osefo, 41, also made reference to his faith in a social media post on Sunday following the recent legal entanglement.
Eddie posted an image of the couple posing with their three children - Karter, 12, Kruz, 10, and Kamrynn, six- in front of the Empire State Building on Instagram Sunday.
It read: 'Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6.'
Following their October 9 arrests, Wendy and Eddie were booked into Carroll County Detention Center and posted $100,000 bail collectively and were released, officials told US Weekly.
Both are facing 16 charges, seven of them felonies, in connection with fraud that eclipse is $300 in value, the Westminster Police Department in Westminster, Maryland told People.
According to authorities, the duo said that they were missing a number of expensive items - including designer handbags and jewelry - when they visited Jamaica in April 2024.
The couple said that the items had been taken during a burglary they had reported.

Investigators said they subsequently sussed out that items the pair claimed were stolen had been bought and taken back to the stores they were bought from - 'where a full refund was provided prior to the alleged burglary.'
In court documents obtained by TMZ detailing what prosecutors recommended for bail, officials said the Osefos had claimed $450,000 in personal property losses through an insurance company.
Bravo's Andy Cohen said he was 'hoping that this is all some big nothing' in acknowledging the arrests on SiriusXM's Andy Cohen Live October 13.
'I want to say that like all of you, I found out about the charges against Wendy and Eddie Osefo on Friday morning, and there's not much that I can say,' Cohen said. 'I know nothing of the charges more than you guys do, than what I've read. I'm sad about this. I'm really sad about this.'
Cohen praised Wendy as 'a great housewife and a great role model' who has 'always led with education and her solid family values ... I'm really thinking about her and her family.'
Wendy and Eddie Osefo, who have been wed 14 years, are not the first reality stars to be accused of financial impropriety. In some cases, prominent names in the genre have had significant legal difficulties that led to convictions.
Among them include Real Housewives of New Jersey Teresa Giudice and her ex-husband Joe; Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Jen Shah; Jersey Shore star Mike 'The Situation' Sorrentino; and Chrisley Knows Best stars Todd and Julie Chrisley.
Wendy first became a cast member on The Real Housewives of Potomac in the show's fifth season in 2020, and is scheduled to be in the cast of the new Bravo series Wife Swap: The Real Housewives Edition.
While the episode showcasing Wendy had been planned for the show's October 14 debut, it has been delayed to October 21 and the series will not kick off with Wendy's episode in the wake of her ongoing legal affairs.
