Fans of the short-lived\u00a0The Real Housewives of DC\u00a0series\u00a0often wonder what happened to winery owner and husband of Michaele Salahi, Tareq Salahi, after the White House scandal, and there are many interesting updates. The business owner was not well-liked in the series. His unpopularity stems from constantly dragging his wife into schemes to boost his fame. This controversial former reality star has had problems since he\u00a0joined\u00a0The Real Housewives of DC\u00a0many years ago. In that respect, he’s much like Erika Jayne’s estranged spouse, Tom Girardi, who was accused of embezzlement by former clients.<\/p>\n

The Real Housewives of DC\u00a0only lasted for one season, and it premiered back in August 2010. Bravo\u2019s fifth\u00a0Real Housewives\u00a0series tried to follow the huge success of the Orange County, New York City, Atlanta, and New Jersey franchises. However, that success was elusive.\u00a0RHODC\u00a0cameras followed the lives of several women who lived in the nation\u2019s high-powered capital. This franchise never really caught on with viewers, and didn’t get a second season, even though the network went on to have many other successful spin-offs.\u00a0RHODC\u00a0ended up being reintroduced as\u00a0The Real Housewives of Potomac\u00a0which just ended its eighth season.<\/p>\n

Back in 2009, President Barack Obama was about to have his first White House State dinner. The forty-fourth president was set to host a dinner to honor Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, and the event was the talk of the town. Tareq and his wife Michaele believed they had been invited to the function due to a polo connection.<\/p>\n

According to\u00a0Bustle,\u00a0Michaele and Tareq were able to get passed two security checkpoints: a name-checked guest list and a metal detector. Many members of the press, including\u00a0The Washington Post\u2019s Roxanne Roberts, recognized the couple from the Bravo series, but nothing was ever done about their presence there at the time. However, The White House security was alerted, and it was confirmed Michaele and Tareq were not invited to the event. The couple infamously crashed the party and shared pictures with Joe Biden and Katie Couric on their Facebook page.<\/p>\n

Following the incident,\u00a0Michaele and Tareq were invited by the U.S. House of Representatives Homeland Security Committee to a hearing about the breach in December 2009. Michaele insisted they were invited to the event and weren’t just “party crashers.” While the Secret Service didn’t charge them with any criminal charges,\u00a0theirpersonal and professional lives were greatly impacted by the scandal.<\/p>\n

What Happened To Tareq\u2019s Winery & His Marriage?<\/h2>\n

In September 2011,\u00a0Tareq filed for divorce from Michaele, citing that she cheated and abandoned him. According to a\u00a0People\u00a0article from September 2011, Michaele left Tareq for Journey guitarist Neal Schon in Tennessee. Tareq thought Michaele was missing when she was, in fact, on tour with the band. Neal had allegedly sent Tareq a photo of his private area in an email, which promoted the divorce.<\/p>\n

In January 2016, according to the\u00a0Washington Post,\u00a0Tareq married his business partner, Lisa Spoden. The two currently run a charter company called Hotels at Sea.\u00a0Tareq\u00a0also frequently updates his Instagram page, showing that he often enjoys polo matches and hanging out with his beautiful wife and their friends. It seems Tareq has made the best of his new normal following the infamous White House scandal.<\/p>\n

Many feel that he was and always will be a con artist. While Washington is a town filled with fakers and fame-seekers, most viewers did not feel there was a place for the Salahis in the franchise. In the end,\u00a0The Real Housewives of DC\u00a0was not renewed, leaving Tareq to fend for himself. Nonetheless, Tareq has done well for himself and can leave the past behind him once and for all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
