Known for her sharp wit and no-nonsense attitude, Dorinda Medley from 'The Real Housewives of New York City' appeared to stir the pot on social media over Monica Garcia's exit from 'The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City'. An unofficial X account with her name shared, "I just admit when Monica was let go from #RHOSLC I was worried they wouldn't recover, however I've been proved wrong big time! This cast is iconic." While the tweet doesn't directly shade Monica, it does insinuate that her absence hasn't hurt the show. In calling the current cast "iconic," Dorinda seems to imply that 'RHOSLC' has improved or thrived despite- or because of- Monica's departure. And, as one might expect, it is debatable whether this comment was subtle shade at Monica or simply praise for the remaining cast members.

From dramatic storylines and emotional revelations to polarizing moments, Monica Garcia's time on 'RHOSLC' was pretty eventful. When Monica left abruptly, fans speculated if the franchise would be a little less exciting. Whichever way, the
drama keeps the fire going on 'RHOSLC'.
