'RHOSLC' star Monica Garcia hits back at Lisa Barlow’s comments following her 'm***********s' jibe
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: The drama between former 'Real Housewives of Salt Lake City' (RHOSLC) co-stars Lisa Barlow and Monica Garcia has intensified. Monica recently claimed that Bravo and the show's producers tried to bring her back for Season 5, but the rest of the cast threatened to quit if she returned.
Monica, who had a tumultuous time on the show due to her involvement with a social media account that trolled her castmates, revealed this information during a recent event. She said, "Bravo and production have gotten a lot of sh-t for not inviting me back. It was not their fault, and they actually tried to bring me back several, several times. They actually tried to bring me in toward the end of the season for season five, and you can thank a couple of motherf-ckers for threatening to quit if Bravo brought me back."
This statement sparked a wave of reactions, with some fans accusing Monica of lying and others speculating which cast members might have issued the ultimatum. Lisa Barlow was quick to respond to Monica's claims on X (formerly known as Twitter). Lisa wrote, "I can’t imagine being so pathetic and desperate I can’t move on."
Monica fired back, "I can’t imagine being so pathetic and threatened that I boss networks around," implying that Lisa had a hand in blocking her return. She added, "Mad because you know it’s true. You really have much bigger things to worry about. I can think of 500,000 other things right off the top of my head."
Andy Cohen explains why Monica Garcia left ‘RHOSLC’
Andy Cohen recently explained why Monica Garcia left 'RHOSLC' after just one season. According to Cohen, the decision was made after it was revealed that Garcia had been involved with an Instagram fan account that trolled her fellow housewives.
During his SiriusXM show, 'Andy Cohen Live', Cohen said that there would be a "cooling-off period" for Garcia. He emphasized that the reunion episodes are a critical opportunity for cast members to explain their actions to the audience and, more importantly, to their fellow cast members. Garcia had this chance, but Cohen noted, "I don’t think she successfully swayed any of them to her side."
When asked during the reunion where they stood with Garcia, the RHOSLC cast members expressed that they did not trust her. Cohen explained, "We all discussed it at length and decided to let this one breathe for a while. She’s obviously really compelling television. Maybe she’ll be able to build some inroads with some of the women on her own, off camera."
'RHOSLC’ star Lisa Barlow reveals ‘red flags’ she saw in Monica Garcia
Lisa Barlow recently opened up about the "red flags" she noticed in her co-star Monica Garcia. Barlow expressed her concerns about Garcia's behavior and actions during their time on the show, which ultimately led to tensions within the cast.
Barlow highlighted that one of the significant red flags was Garcia's involvement with an Instagram fan account, Reality Von Tease, which trolled and spread rumors about other cast members. This revelation came out during the show's fourth season and caused a major rift among the housewives. Barlow felt that Garcia's participation in such activities indicated a lack of trustworthiness and integrity.
Another red flag for Barlow was Garcia's tendency to create drama. She pointed out that Garcia often seemed to thrive on conflict and wasn't shy about stirring the pot. This behavior made it challenging for Barlow and the other housewives to build genuine relationships with her.
