I could not figure out who was in the blue dress then I realized it was Mary,

LOL! I didn't know who she was at first either!

Lisa's look is predictable Lisa -I HATE how she stands with the forward foot crooked

Heather and Monica look like they're wearing prom gowns

Whitney is wearing a doily

I don't know what Meredith is wearing, but she loses the Weirdest Outfit Award to Angie

Enh, I don't really like any of them.  Whitney's bodice at least looks interesting so IDK.  I don't hate any of them but nothing is WOW either.  🥱

My mother always told me to take the dress for a test run before you buy it.  Walk in it, sit in it, etc.  Be sure it works for more than just standing

Reunion looks!

Heather lost more weight since the season filmed (Ozempic?), Mary had fillers, and looks different than on the show, and it's obvious Bravo chooses the outfits. Mary's is the best, and Lisa's is not too bad.

It's interesting how some franchises have a color theme and others don't.  Here the colors are all over the place.  Also, it is rare to have short cocktail length dresses along with gowns at a reunion.  

 

[ZettaK]

Heather admitted recently she took Ozempic, but she lost only very little weight. Judging by the show, and photos she lost a lot more, and she was a bigger woman for many years. She is also 49 years old, and at least perimenopausal. I've also noticed that all her daughters suddenly appear to look a lot slimmer on the show, and photos.

Jen Shah who can obviously still use social media in prison, posted an IG story after last night's episode about not causing Heather’s black eye because Bravo would have footage of it if it had happened. Andy Cohen clapped back at her. 

Shah also specifically called out Cohen in her Instagram post from prison, claiming he's "still butt hurt" she turned down an interview with him following her legal drama. As for his response? He recounted that Shah "wanted us to do a docuseries of her days leading up to jail," adding, "She wanted a lot of money and she was still professing her innocence, so it would've been another interview of her sitting across from me lying to my face, which we got at two reunions from her, so that's that."

'RHOSLC' Producers Were Unaware of Monica Garcia's Involvement With Finsta Account (Exclusive)

Read in Entertainment Tonight: https://apple.news/A9aChDzwEQaOT0P9FkMpQUQ

"The casting team and producers were unaware of Monica's association with the Instagram account Reality Von Tease, and they had no knowledge of the account when she was cast," revealed a source to ET. "While they were aware of her connection with Jen Shah, they were completely unaware of the information that Heather discovered in Bermuda. Heather's revelation came as a surprise to the producers, much like the unexpected FBI visit at the Beauty Lab & Laser parking lot during season 2 involving Jen."

RHOSLC’s Monica Garcia Addresses Video That Hints Her Mom Knew About Reality Von Tease Account.

Monica accuses her former friend Tenesha Luckett of leaking a video of her and her mother fighting.

In the clip, Monica’s mom could be heard yelling at her about the way the Reality Von Tease reveal played out. “The only thing that you did was unite those four a–holes,” Linda said before calling her daughter “an actress” whose “job” was to pretend to have a good relationship with her RHOSLC costars in order to get screen time.

Monica (as a blonde back then) with Jen (in the right) at Meredith's store a few years ago. Meredith accused Jen of stealing a bag. Monica mentioned on the show a couple of episodes ago that she never visited the store before.

Security video of Monica (with blonde hair back then) with Jen Shah at Meredith's store. Meredith saw Jen stealing a bag. Monica claimed she was never at Meredith's store before an episode, or two ago.

 

 

How, and from whom did Meredith find out about Monica being on the security footage from her store, and was it a coincidence that it happened just before the trip and the revelations? I don't think it was a coincidence. Did somebody from production tell her? According to what we saw on the finale, Heather supposedly told the OGs about Monica in Bermuda, at the end of the trip.

Jen Shah's attorneys sent a cease and desist letter (those damn c & d letters!) to Reality Von Tease2 in 2021. Is it possible none of the women knew? Heather was close to her. But Monica was using Fowler as her last name back then (she is the Ms Fowler of the letter). Her mother asked her on the show (the episode where they are having lunch at a restaurant after Angie's Greek Easter celebration) why she is using a different last name instead of Fowler, her name. It was because she didn't want anybody to recognize the name because Heather probably knew it.

WOW!!!  This is unbelievable.  So, it seems that Monica and her mother schemed to get on the show, and then, were trying to scheme and gaslight their way to a lasting gig.  

I don't think it's going to work out, though.

Also, according to this, it says this video is "Part 1" - I'd love to see Part 2!!  

What a messed up family.  I think I saw one of Monica's daughters, and maybe the grandmother (?) in the background.  How sad that those girls have to live with this.  

Makes you wonder if their Dad will go for custody now?  Looks like he may have a good argument as to why his kids should not be living with their Mom.

I'm so confused with all of this.  I'm assuming that her current ex-husband is the father of her three younger girls and the oldest has a different father?  So, I guess it was the younger girls' father's brother-in-law that Monica had the affair with. 

I'm trying to google stuff, and all I get is that she and her current ex-husband were married, filed for divorced, dissolved that divorce filing, reconciled and just recently finalized the divorce.  Apparently, she also is getting over $6500.00 a month in child support and alimony, and has full physical custody of the girls.  

$6500.00 a month isn't too much when it comes to housing, clothing and raising three young children and a teenager, but it's better than what a lot of women get.

https://pagesix.com/2023/11/10/parents/rhoslc-star-monica-garcia-wins-custody-support-in-divorce/

I seriously think after seeing Monica (and her Mom), along with all of the craziness in that dysfunctional house, the girls' father needs to be the primary custodial parent, unless he is in worse shape than she is.

@njbchlover Monica and her oldest daughter had a scene where they were looking at pictures and talking about her father. The oldest does have a different dad then the younger 3 but I don't remember at this point if the oldest has a relationship with her dad. I assume that the husband was the only dad she knew. I think Monica was fairly young when she had her, maybe 19 or 20?

Monica said that the affair happened about 10 years ago, so I assume it happened when she was with her ex husband/father of the younger kids.

There is backlash against Heather, even by other HWs like Dorinda Medley of NY who claimed that the real story about the black eye was not told yet. She asked a doctor, a friend of hers, and she was told that blood doesn't congeal that fast (in a few hours) to have such an obvious black eye. Dorinda said that the beginning of a black eye could be seen even from an earlier episode.

Both, but specifically swelled up - something bruised may have been there before I blew my nose - I don't know.  I was 22 years old, playing on a coed softball team and was running to second base and ran my face into the pectorals of a very firm man and ended up with a bloody nose.  I don't remember if my eye was already turning black, but whatever was happening, those who were "in the know" warned me not to blow my nose.  Having been a very girly-girl my whole life I had never had a sports injury and was curious - I admit that after spending the evening at home alone touching the weird puffy skin around my eye, I blew my nose simply to see what would happen 😂. It literally swelled right up until I couldn't see out of it!  And was black and blue - but that may have happened anyway. (I was supposed to be Maid of Honor in my cousin's wedding a month later - she decreed "No more softball until after the wedding!"). Thirty-four years later I still have the hand towel given me by the man I ran into - whenever I come across it in the linen closet I think "That's Stan's towel!" 😄
