The mystery that is Monica Garcia, aka Reality Von Tease, continues to unravel during part two of the RHOSLC season 4 reunion.
Part two of the RHOSLC season 4 reunion kicked off with diving deeper into Monica’s family history. Monica explains that her mom abandoned her at the age of 12 to move to New York to pursue a career in television.
This revelation leads Andy Cohen to ask the RHOSLC rookie: “Do you think your mom was auditioning to be a Housewife?”
Monica explains that she thought she bombed her audition for RHOSLC, which is when her mom offered prayers that if she didn’t get the role, she would get it instead. Yikes.
Lisa Barlow and Monica Went At It Over “Nasty” Comments

Then Andy dives into the lawsuits, yes, multiple lawsuits. Apparently, after Monica fell down the stairs at Angie Katsanevas‘ house, she threatened online to sue Angie, which Meredith Marks allegedly co-signed.
According to Monica, Meredith told her, “If you want her house, you can have her house.” Meredith denies saying this comment.
Angie then accuses Monica of making a living off of suing people, which offends the RHOSLC newbie. Monica fires back, asking Angie to name people that she’s sued in the past or is currently suing, which is when Heather Gay chimes in.
“You’re suing me,” Heather says, and Monica clarifies that she’s only countersuing her, which doesn’t count.

As for which version of Monica is suing Heather, the RHOSLC newbie explains why she has so many last names. As fans know, Monica went to Heahter’s Beauty Lab and Laser using numerous last names, including Garcia, Darnell, and Fowler.
Monica explains that Darnell is her maiden name while Fowler is her married name. Delgado, on the other hand, is on her father’s side, and Garcia is on her mother’s side. Confusing right?

Mary Cosby then enters the scene. When Andy asks the ladies how they feel about Mary returning to fold for season 4, Heather and Angie say the show needed her and that she brought some much-needed humor and levity to the show. In typical Mary fashion, she snaps at Angie, saying, “Angie, this is your first year; why are you even answering?” without fully grasping that Angie was giving her a compliment.
The conversation then moves to Mary’s drama with Whitney Rose, who admits she had hoped to patch things up with Mary while filming season 4 of RHOSLC, but that didn’t happen. Whitney apologizes for calling Mary a “predator” during season 2 of RHOSLC.
As Andy runs through a myriad of tweets sent out by the ladies of Salt Lake City, Andy addresses one tweet in which Mary calls Whitney “racist” due to her growing up in the LDS Church. Andy is confused, so he turns to Heather to explain. Heather explains the LDS’ racist history and notes that “Mormon doctrine is rooted in racism.” While Whitney agrees, Lisa denies the claim, which leads to Heather noting that the modern-day Mormon Church is making efforts to right those wrongs.
Before Mary exits the reunion, Andy asks Mary her feelings about Monica’s Reality Von Tease Instagram account. Mary says she thought the finale episode was over the top. She added that she didn’t know about the account, so she didn’t care about it.
“Would you care if that account called you a dumb bitch?” Lisa asks as Heather whips out a recording of Monica bad-mouthing Mary. Monica insists that the comment was taken out of context. Mary seems to check out as Monica and the other ladies go back and forth.
Monica then reveals that Reality Von Tease is run by six people as Heather claims that an investigation is currently underway into the account and everyone who was behind it.
Part 3 of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City reunion airs on Tuesday, Jan. 23, at 8 p.m. ET on Bravo.

In Bravo’s continued efforts to besmirch the Mormon Church, they finally went in for the kill by
mentioningpropagating the “Curse of Cain”, which is the (inaccurate?) interpretation that God “marked” Cain with black skin (for killing his brother). Just so we’re all up to speed, the curse God placed upon Cain was described in the passage, the inability to cultivate the land, which uniquely fitted both Cain’s vocation and his crime (there is no indication given anywhere in the passage that the curse also applied to Cain’s descendants). The Mormon Church disavowed the idea that black skin is the sign of said curse, over 45 yrs. ago (1978). At least now we know why dirty rotten mean girl Mary was placed onto this show.She is in a competing business with the Mormon religion, albeit a fart in a windstorm.
Is she still in the religion peddling business? I thought her scam was dismantled.
There is still a website. According to it :”Bishop Robert C. Cosby & First Lady, Evangelist Mary M. Cosby Presiding” plus there are service hours. It has the history, too, which is sort of interesting.
Wow, I can’t imagine anyone joining her flock … but as we all know, there is no shortage of gullible sheeple these days.
No kidding after the Iowa thing!
Why whatever do you mean?

Grandpa husband is the head snake handler in the church of St Mary of Chanel. Tolerating that self righteous phony has to pay well, I would have already lost my religion on that nasty cu..
Mary is despicable … and only getting worse. The double standard annoys the f out of me. Adrienne Maloof (and probably LVP) were fired for not attending their reunions, but this trick gets a pass. Even worse than that, Mary repeatedly proved herself to be a blatant racist, in the true definition of the word (towards Asian people and even her own). Then for good measure, they fire the woman with “yellow skin” whom Mary repeatedly bullied!
Yeah, it’s long past time to deny Mary’s race card. We both know that won’t happen the sadistic puppet master Cohen is having too much fun controlling these weak, psychologically damaged women.
Monica aside for a minute , I cannot with Lisa Barlow . It irritates me the level she sunk to with her big ass hot mic moment going after Meredith her fam her marriage and she was let off the hook so easy !!! Whitney engaged in rumors etc but it’s all bash Monica for her hw shenanigans?!?! That’s the main thing that gets me with these franchise
I like Lisa, but I too have had a hard time forgetting about that. If I were Meredith, I might be able to move on (for the sake of the show), but I could never forget, let alone be friends with her again.
Watching Cohen sympathize with Monica’s stories of abuse from her mother was so staged it was gross. He’s desperately looking for Monica to have an excuse for all her shitty life choices so he can justify bringing her back next season. I know I stand alone but I don’t think Linda is that bad. She’s not perfect but she’s not evil like her daughter. She’s had to put up with a calculating, sly, manipulative liar for 40 years! Ever watch the movie Bad Seed. I would break down and call Monica a MF too. There’s such a thing as parental abuse. Whitney sucking up to Mary and using the white privilege line made me laugh. So happy Heather played the audio of Monica calling Mary a dumb bitch. She is. The look on her face. I think Angie looks beautiful. Wow she’s 50 and she looks good. Just goes to show that ladies who can afford laser skin treatments among other things really do age well. Lisa was on fire. I’m actually starting to appreciate her.
Ditto on everything you said. You’re not alone, I don’t find Linda that bad either. Monica is such a liar and manipulator, there are many layers to her and moms relationship.
Me either, I actually get a kick out of Linda, because at least she’s fun crazy; whereas Von Teef is just annoying crazy.
Monica got over on and helped send psycho Jen to prison, IMO that makes Monica a bigger lunatic than the scumbag that swindled senior citizens.
Andy is probably dreaming of a Monica spinoff since nobody on the show can stand her psychotic Kartrashian wannabe ass.
They are going to do anything to keep Von Teef (and Linda) on the show, and it’s starting with the sympathy card. Personally, I’m with Jeff Lewis and Mercedes Javid (who appeared on WWHL last night) … off with her head … bye gurl.
I almost turned it off with all the screaming and when Andy was eating up Monica’s sob stories. Monica is despicable trash and Mary was a mistake to re-hire. Too bad there wasn’t a question about her druggie son flaunting his illegal drug use. Yet she did talk about him having sex. Yuck.
So who thinks that Monica will be rehired? I think there are slight odds she will be.
Monica tries to manipulate everyone with her sob stories. Still never fully explained why she keeps changing her last names! She’s a con!
Yup, although she’ a smooth one, something is awry there.
Mary is an angry, self pitying asshole. Her, still living with mama, son appears to have the mentality of a child, creepy kid.
I can’t get past how she gets her church business income and in order to get it plus everything she owned, she had to marry her deceased grandmother’s husband. And then they have a kid. At 21, the kid is a mess.
It was hilarious that someone who is so rude and nasty and inappropriate toward her co-workers was offended because Heather made comments about her house decor that weren’t that bad! Mary is an emotionally stunted spoiled mean mentally messed up 8 year old in my opinion. She isn’t very smart either so of course she agreed to marry an old nasty man and be part of a cult taking money in exchange for vast wealth. Therefore, Monica is perfect for the show.
Rev Pass the Plate, remember when she told this 10 ppl in attendance to quit being stingy?
She’s got nerve to even say the word entitled!
It was like all the other multi-part reunions: pure fluff. Monica continues to lie and it’s infuriating!! I thought her mother was from New Bedford? Guess who else is from there…every “Portugi” in Massachusetts! Regardless, saying she grew up getting bullied in Boston is insulting AF!! I would love to see both of their birth certificates! Who is the daddy of Monica’s firstborn? …and where are the arrest records for Michael Jared Fowler? Lies!!!
Monica & Mary both can exit the stage.
I can’t explain it but mary makes me chuckle . She’s wild
If not for how she maintains her extravagant lifestyle since the beginning or how nasty she is, I would, too. Can’t imagine her wanting to be back.
