Real Housewives of Salt Lake City fans may or may not have noticed that Mary Cosby has gone MIA mid-season. It went from her showing up at events and not wanting to participate, to only been filmed at her house with various RHOSLC co-stars coming to visit.
Is it a coincidence? Or was there a deliberate attempt to push Mary out of the group. One that she seemingly wanted nothing to do with.
Mary said RHOSLC production “stopped inviting” her to cast events
What did she expect LMAOOOOOOO she was a nightmare to film with, not wanting to participate to anything ? Production said “you gon’ learn TODAY!” ? #RHOSLChttps://t.co/cQ2ljyMC6x
Teddi commented on the event to Mary, who then confirmed that her absence was deliberate.
“I wasn’t invited, Teddi. I was not invited. They stopped inviting me, because I did all the stuff that I did on the show. They were trying to wing me out,” Mary responded.
“Hold on, the women? Or production?” Teddi asked.
“No. Production,” Mary clarified. “I was not invited. I wasn’t even invtied on the trip. And that’s real. That’s no crumbs. That’s real life.”
Teddi mentioned thinking that Mary was taking herself “out of the situation.” Given her lack of enthusiasm for dealing with her co-stars, save Meredith, it seemed a reasonable thought process.
Mary reiterated, “I got taken out. And when they, like aired it. People wanted more so they had to fly back and re-film. We just got through filming with me maybe like four or five weeks ago. But I wasn’t invited to a lot of that stuff.”
That would explain the seemingly random scenes at Mary’s house recently. The question is, do fans feel that RHOSLC is lacking without her? Ratings for Season 4 have been through the roof, so certainly it seems viewers are fine with the current setup.

But without making as much of an impact as producers were hoping for, Taylor was let go after one season. It’s time to return the orange. And seems that the reunion seating chart was quite telling.
Taylor Armstrong is “grateful” for the Orange County experience
Taylor made the announcement with a heartfelt Instagram post.
“Loved spending time with the ladies of #RHOC and thankful I got to give the viewers an update on my life,” she wrote. “I’ve made some real friendships that I cherish. Wishing the ladies all the best for season 18.”
Indeed, Taylor’s fans appreciated seeing her again, especially given how much she is thriving at the current stage in her life.
The RHOC alum cheekily ended her post with the following dig at Heather, “Adding Season 17 to my IMDb.”
Season 17 viewers will recall how Heather took offense when her status as a desirable and in-demand actress was questioned by the group. And Taylor’s conflict with Heather was the only drama she took on all season. It was potent, but not enough to keep the Oklahoma native around.
Taylor did make a heartwarming connection with fellow Mid-Westerner, Jennifer, and often defended her relationship with Ryan Boyajian against the prying of the rest of the group.
“You’ll be missed, Taylor!” Tamra replied to the post.
Jennifer wrote, “I love you SO much.”

Real Housewives of Miami Season 6, Episode 5 has arrived, and the confrontations are beginning to pile up in “A Night at the Opera.” Tensions continued rising between Alexia, Marysol, and Adriana after the sprinter van incident last week. Meanwhile, Guerdy has found out that Larsa spilled her cancer diagnosis to the rest of the Housewives. It seems all good intentions are done away with on RHOM Season 6, Episode 5.
The “real” injuries of Miami

Speaking of good intentions being met with unfortunate fates, Marysol and Kiki both ended up with some tough injuries after playing in Larsa’s charity basketball game. Of course, one of those injuries looked a bit more legitimate than the other.
While Marysol said she was “self-diagnosing” with a sling over her arm, Kiki’s ankle was noticeably swollen. At least Marysol showed some self-awareness when saying, “The brain is always broken.” The two recapped the previous week for a moment, Marysol griping about Adriana’s flatulence once again. (Apparently, Marysol can excuse “f*ck,” but “fart” is where she draws the line).
Regarding the other Housewives, Kiki said Nicole was the first to call her and ask if she was all right. On the other hand, Kiki expected some communication from Larsa but received none. Kiki admitted that she felt she was losing her best friend to Marcus Jordan.

Elsewhere, Alexia and Todd hosted a little double date for themselves, Nicole, and Anthony. The four partook in a cooking lesson, making pizza together. They discussed Todd’s apology that he left to Anthony – a nine-minute-long apology, combined with a delivery of flowers, chocolates, and a card.
Anthony admitted that he thought the apology was initially fake, his secretary laughing as she delivered it to him. Of course, they all took it in stride, and Anthony said there were “no hard feelings.” The conversation then moved to Julia’s upcoming “F*ck Cancer” party. Alexia admitted that she didn’t like the fact that the party would be at Adriana’s house.
Adriana offended Alexia when she suggested Alexia wanted Todd for his money. Nicole admitted confusion to the cameras since Alexia, Todd, and Adriana had different narratives surrounding the “Nuevos Horizontes” party, and Todd’s absence. “The truth usually lies somewhere in the middle,” Nicole said.
Familial anguish for Larsa and Adriana

Larsa and Marcus started their podcast, much to the annoyance of their audio engineer. On the podcast and with the cameras, they discussed how each of their families had warmed up to the relationship. Granted, when a producer asked Larsa if she had seen Michael Jordan at Thanksgiving, Larsa replied flatly, “I just don’t wanna talk about him.”
On the other side of Miami, Adriana prepared herself to undergo her first ketamine treatment, and Julia graciously agreed to drive her there. While on the way, Julia gave Marysol a ring to invite her to the “F*ck Cancer” party. Marysol initially seemed on board, but when Julia mentioned it was at Adriana’s house, Marysol said she’d have a medical procedure she’d be recuperating from. Adriana said it was “bullsh*t,” and called Julia “gullible.”
Eventually, they arrived at Adriana’s treatment. Things started a bit silly, and Julia was convinced she’d never try ketamine. But as the minutes went on, Adriana began seeing her brother and father, who passed away. “I love you. I should’ve gone first,” she said. She and Julia sobbed as Julia took her hand. Adriana spoke again. “I never got to say goodbye.” The treatment guide said Julia could seek peace now that she’d tapped into her loss.
Larsa questions the truth of Guerdy’s diagnosis

Later that night, Lisa and Jody attended an F1 Racing party with Larsa, Marcus, and Kiki. However, Kiki quickly noted that she was the fifth wheel. “I miss hanging out with my friend, Marcus,” she said. Larsa, on the other hand, told cameras she was past wanting to just hang out with her friends. Kiki said she struggled to find men she wanted to date.
As the night progressed, Lisa told her friends how she tried to speak with Guerdy about her breast cancer diagnosis. When Lisa and Guerdy spoke, Guerdy initially pretended not to know what Lisa was talking about. As Lisa pushed it, Guerdy knew immediately who told Lisa about the diagnosis, saying, “I tested someone because I knew they couldn’t keep their mouth shut.”
When Lisa reported on this, Larsa said, “I don’t have time for tests. She needs to grow up.” At that point, Larsa began to question the validity of Guerdy’s diagnosis, specifically because Guerdy was drinking, which Larsa supposed Guerdy ought not to do if she did have cancer.
Getting ready to f*ck cancer

As everyone prepared for the “F*ck Cancer” party, Guerdy spoke with her husband about how overwhelming it was for everyone to know, revealing she turned her phone off. Guerdy voiced her frustrations with Larsa as Russell tried to calm her. Guerdy promised she’d be classy while at the party.
Julia showed her stress on her face as she readied her performance space. She’d practiced so long, and the night had finally arrived. She practiced once more, acknowledging the challenge considering she’d never sung in her life. From there, guests began arriving.
Guerdy was happy to arrive at the party, saying it gave her a great deal of hope that Martina had beaten two cancers. Alexia arrived shortly thereafter, having called and texted earlier that day. Once together at the party, Alexia admitted that she’d already known previously about the diagnosis.
Larsa has arrived, and Guerdy’s not happy

Guerdy wasn’t surprised, but still didn’t take it well, saying Larsa needed to “be corrected.” She told Alexia that Guerdy’s confession to Larsa was given in confidence. Things got worse when Nicole arrived. Nicole revealed that Larsa called her, asking if Guerdy’s troubles were “real.” Guerdy remarked on the hypocrisy in saying Guerdy had cancer only to backpedal and question if she did, in fact, have cancer.
Martina soon arrived with her dog, greeted by nearly all the Housewives. The cast remarked that Lisa was notably absent. They noted that an article had come out recently, where Lenny accused Lisa and Jody of planting a recording device in his car. At the very least, Alexia and Adriana managed to behave around each other.
Larsa soon arrived, and the tone immediately shifted. They continued on the topic of Lisa, but Guerdy interrupted and said, “Not now with the gossip, guys.” When Larsa asked, “What?” Guerdy responded, “I’m not talking to you.” As the girls all raised a glass, Guerdy also pointed out how her doctor approved drinking.
From there, Larsa called Lisa, only to find out that the police were at her house.

Every Real Housewives star has an origin story. They don’t just appear fully formed on Bravo. And while some were more popular than others before stepping into the Housewives world, hearing how they got started is always interesting.
How Tamra Judge was cast on RHOC: From open house to open life
Tamra joined RHOC in Season 3 when she was “on the verge of turning 40,” as host Alex pointed out. “And you were reconciling aging in Orange County,” he added as he asked how she ended up on the show.
“I was in a bad marriage and just a bad place in my life,” Tamra added. “It wasn’t the life I saw for myself.”
Then, one day, she and a girlfriend were sending each other instant messages, and her friend mentioned there were going to be auditions for the Real Housewives and asked if she wanted to go. Tamra immediately responded, “No, I have an open house that day. I can’t make it.”
Either way, Tamra decided to fill out the online application form anyway.
“I know there was a line around the door at the Balboa Bay Club,” she said about the auditions. “Of people with pictures of their Rolls Royces and bank statements.” She felt she was too normal and there was nothing exciting about her.
A little bit obnoxious

But she was wrong. The producers saw something they liked in her application and called and came over to meet her. “They came over. And I think, just in general, I’m a little bit obnoxious,” she shared. “Especially when I get nervous. And I think I said something about Jeana Keough. They asked if I knew her, and I was like, ‘Yeah, I know her. I run circles around her.'”
But that wasn’t true. Tamra recalled she was just starting in real estate at the time. “I was just saying sh*t.” Either way, she made an impression, and they asked her to fill out another thick application form and said they’d be in touch.
They returned to meet her then-husband, Simon Barney, and the kids. Then, she eventually found out it was down to her and another real estate agent in her neighborhood, which brought out her claws.
“I was like, ‘Aw, hell no,'” she laughed. After that, she waited and waited. And when she didn’t hear from them, she decided to call the producer herself. “I’m like, ‘Hey Pete, it’s Tamra. Did I get the f*cking job or not?’ And then I hung up.”
He called her back, laughing, and confirmed she got the job. And that’s how Tamra ended up on RHOC. Looks like sometimes being obnoxious pays off.

Hi again! It’s time for the Dancing with the Stars Season 32, Episode 10 recap! It’s the semi-finals, and all five couples will dance twice. Each couple will perform a ballroom dance and a Latin dance to try and win their way into the December 5 DWTS finale. The Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy is nearly in reach for one dancing duo. Last week, Harry and his partner Rylee were booted from the ballroom during Taylor Swift Night. Here’s everything that happened in DWTS Season 32, Episode 10: The Semi-Finals!
Ariana and Pasha
(ABC/Andrew Eccles)
First dance: Jive to Runaway Baby by Bruno Mars.
Vanderpump Rules star Ariana and her partner Pasha danced a fast-paced jive. She danced the fringe off her dress.
Judge Derek called it “fantastic.” Bruno proclaimed it a “runaway hit.” Carrie Ann called it “fabulous.”
Ariana scored 28 out of 30 points.
Second dance: Foxtrot to Trampoline by SHAED & ZAYN.
This foxtrot from Ariana and Pasha was fluid and entertaining. Derek called it “sensational.” He added that it was “captivating” and “wonderful.” Bruno complimented it as “brilliant.”
Carrie Ann exclaimed, “She’s baacckkk!” I didn’t know that Ariana was ever missing.
Ariana received 30 out of 30 points. Ariana’s first perfect score! Her total for the night was 58 out of 60 points.
Jasonand Daniella
(ABC/Andrew Eccles)
First dance: Viennese Waltz to I Won’t Give Up by Jason Mraz.
Singer Jason and Daniella performed a graceful and romantic Viennese Waltz to one of my favorite songs. Bruno noted that he danced like “a gentleman.”
Carrie Ann felt that she wanted more “emotional freedom” in his dancing. Derek said Jason’s routine was “a proper Viennese Waltz.”
Jason earned 27 out of 30 points. He became emotional when reflecting on everything that he had learned from Daniella.
Second dance: Paso Doble to Diablo Rojo by Rodrigo y Gabriela.
Daniella and Jason danced a strong and dramatic Paso Doble. Jason even did the knee walks!
Carrie Ann hugged Jason. She called their routine “magic.” Derek said this routine could carry them to the finals. Bruno called the performance “diabolical.”
Jason scored 30 out of 30 points. Their total for the night was 57 out of 60 points.
Xochitl and Val
(ABC/Andrew Eccles)
First dance: Samba to the aptly-named Samba by Gloria Estefan.
Xochitl and Val performed a fun and fast-paced samba. Carrie Ann called it “spectacular” and called Xochitl “a star.” Derek “loved it.” And Bruno named her “the samba diva.” I feel some 10s coming on for these “bros.” And how cute is it that Val calls his partner “bro?”
Xochitl scored 30 out of 30 points.
Second dance: Waltz to La Vie en Rose by Lady Gaga.
Xochitl and Val’s waltz was emotion-driven and celebrated her journey on DWTS. Derek teared up while telling the duo “Len would have loved that dance. That was absolutely perfect.”
Bruno stated that Xochitl “is an artist.” Carrie Ann also broke down in tears. She “never wanted it to end.”
Xochitl earned 30 out of 30 points. Their total for the night was 60 out of 60 points. Perfection!
DWTS pros perform
The dancers who will be hitting the road for the DWTS Live 2024 Tour danced to Janelle Monáe’s song, Make Me Feel. This sexy routine was choreographed by Mandy Moore. Emma danced on a table and chair with four male pros. It must be Emma’s dream come true.
Charityand Artem
(ABC/Andrew Eccles)
First dance: Rumba to Love The Way You Lie Part III by Skylar Grey.
The Bachelorette star Charity and her partner, Artem, danced a sensual rumba. It looks like Charity tapped into her feelings during this performance. Derek raved that she “made that look effortless.” But then he noted that there was a lack of connection.
Bruno objected and climbed onto Derek to demonstrate how Charity was all over Artem. Bruno felt that she was “emoting.” Carrie Ann commended her for having her “breakthrough.” She called it “artistry in motion.”
Charity scored 29 out of 30 points.
Second dance: Quickstep to BO$$ by Fifth Harmony.
This dancing duo’s quickstep was fresh and fun. Bruno complimented Charity’s “sass.” Derek gave his famous slow clap and noted her “energy and excitement.”
Charity received 30 out of 30 points. Her first perfect score! She has a total of 59 out of 60 points for the night.
Alyson and Sasha
(ABC/Andrew Eccles)
First dance: Jive to Footloose by Kenny Loggins.
Alyson and Sasha danced a cute jive. That neon monstrosity of a display on the stage was distracting. Bruno loved the country-western flavor of the dance. He called out a couple of errors.
Carrie Ann praised her journey from a non-dancer to a dancer. Derek “can’t help but root for her.”
Alyson received 25 out of 30 points.
Second dance: Waltz to Come Away With Me by Norah Jones.
This waltz from Alyson and Sasha was elegant. Carrie Ann shared how proud she was of Alyson. Unfortunately, there was some unfancy footwork.
Derek said it was Alyson’s best dance yet. Bruno called it “so pretty” and “dreamlike.”
Alyson earned 26 out of 30 points. Their total was 51 out of 60 points.
The leaderboard

And the wedding dream continues for newly married Sister Wives star Christine Brown, who said “I do” to her new husband David Woolley last October in Utah. Congratulations are in order for the happy couple once more with this latest news.
The event was a celebration of love, and fans and viewers can take a closer look at her happily ever after in a two-part wedding special announced by TLC.
The special won’t just focus on the big day. Following Season 18 of Sister Wives and the dramatic four-part One-on-One Sister Wives special with Sukanya Krishnan, fans of Christine and her family can enjoy her beautiful wedding special that also shares more about the couple’s romantic love story.
Christine and David met in the most 2022 way possible — via an online matchmaker in October 2022. They eventually met in person in December 2022 and fell crazy in love. They publicly announced their relationship in February 2023 and got engaged in April 2023.
But it can’t have been smooth sailing, considering what Christine was untangling herself from at the time. The special may give more insight into how their relationship grew after a difficult plural marriage and all the drama that came with it.
The wedding special shares that after her years of struggle with Kody Brown (and struggle seems to be putting it nicely), Christine and David get their dream wedding on the majestic red rocks of Moab, Utah.
The wedding was beautiful and lavish, described as the grand affair she never had when she became Kody Brown’s third wife. We already know that Christine’s former sister wife, Janelle Brown, attended the event, as did all of Christine and Janelle’s kids except Gwendlyn Brown.
Christine spoke with ET about David’s debut on camera and gushed about how kind and genuine he was despite being nervous. “He was so nervous! It was so cute,” she shared. “He’s wonderful, and he’s so good and so kind. He was just himself. He’s taking on a lot with taking me on,” she revealed, “but he does it with grace.”
Part of Christine and David’s wedding event airs on Jan 7, Sunday, at 10 pm ET on TLC, with part two airing the following Sunday, Jan 14, at 10 pm ETC on TLC.

It’s time for the Below Deck Mediterranean Season 8 midseason teaser trailer, as if there wasn’t enough drama in the latest episodes with Natalya Scudder leaving the boat and Kyle Viljoen side-stepping termination. Jessika Asai is getting cozy with Luka Brunton, despite everyone’s better judgment – including her own.
There is still drama with charter guests to come, and adventures at sea. Captain Sandy Yawn takes issue with how the deck team is being managed, and the interior crew starts to fall apart as Natalya’s replacement is seemingly incompetent at her job.
Certainly, Natalya leaving did not ensure tranquility with the rest of the team. There’s plenty of unresolved drama to go around.
New stew drama, hookups galore, and unruly charter guests still to come
Perhaps the most pressing question for Below Deck Med Season 8 viewers is if Kyle can manage the rest of the season without creating more chaos. But it seems that he does make it to the end, or at least until the point that Natalya joins the crew on a night out. What is the purpose of her visit and will anything be resolved?
We get confirmation that Luka is a f*ck boy. It’s indicated in the editing that he is communicating with a girl on Instagram and that they have a mutual friend in Katie Flood.
“Is that your girlfriend texting you?” Captain Sandy is heard asking the bosun.
As if anyone needed that rude awakening except Jessika, who seemingly couldn’t even wait for Natalya to leave the boat before moving in on her crush.
“I think I like Luka way more than I should,” she said in a confessional.
Jessika also kisses Max Salvador in the trailer and tells the new stew, “Sorry Lill, he’s a good kisser. Just saying.”
The new stew isn’t working
Max is crushing on Lily Davison, and she’s terrible at her job. To the point that Sandy will only give her, “one more chance” to prove herself.
Tumi Mhlongo adds, “I’ve given her more than enough, and she’s just not getting it.”
“I can’t trust her down there. There’s like towels all over the floor,” Jessika complained of Lilly’s poor turndown.
“My interior team is definitely hanging on by a thread,” Tumi said to the camera.
In a following clip, she also stated, “I really can’t be handling men in their 30s.” Could she be speaking about Kyle or an unruly charter guest?
“I thought I was f*cking crazy. But this is chaotic,” Tumi said before the teaser introduces a problem charter guest who is taking on too much alcohol.
“You have to get him under control. Otherwise, he’s off the boat,” Captain Sandy is seen telling another charter guest.
Lots to come then. It’s been a season that’s delivered, and the conclusion seems to be just as exciting.

The two discussed what they thought about her being on the show and how Quad was clearly “winning” to a bemused Andy, who did his best to get them to spill the “sweet tea,” so to speak, and share how they really felt — not that it was really hard.
#Married2Med star Dr. Heavenly Kimes declares that Quad Webb has nothing to worry about when it comes to Lateasha Lunceford: “If she wanted Greg back, she could have him.” #WWHL
Andy went right in and asked Quad how she felt about Heavenly being partially responsible for getting Sweet Tea on the show.
“I didn’t like it,” Quad answered immediately. “I did not like it. You know Heavenly and I talk a lot, and that should have been a conversation, but ultimately, with Heavenly, it’s about what’s good for the show. And she thought having the girl on the show would be good for the show.”
She couldn’t help but add some shade at the end. She said about her ex’s new wife, “And she knows that if she ever tries me, she’s done.”
Heavenly quickly added, “Right, and I think Quad is winning. And I wanted people to see that Quad is not stuck on a marriage. In fact, if she wanted Greg back, she could have him.”
At this point, even Andy was shocked, clarifying, “So you wanted her on the show to portray Quad as winning?”
Some shade with your tea?
The shade session continued in a segment Andy called “Spill the Sweat Tea,” where he asked Quad some questions about Lateasha and asked her to answer as nicely as possible.
In this segment, Quad shared that she thought Lateasha was better suited to Greg because he easily influenced her, that she thought Lateasha’s style was “jivey,” that Lateasha was too honest, and that she couldn’t even bring herself to answer how Lateasha fit in intellectually with the cast.
“At this point, you got too many damn games, Andy,” Quad said while shaking her head.
Married to Medicine continues Sundays at 9/8c on Bravo.

Sister Wives stars Janelle and Christine Brown have undoubtedly gone through a lot, and the fallout continues for as long as former husband Kody Brown is on screen. Because instead of just focusing on himself, healing, and moving on, the Brown patriarch is instead placing blame on everyone around him
Kody accused former spouses Janelle and Christine of “trash-talking” him on the recent episode of Sister Wives: One-on-One because, according to him, he’s guilty of “not loving them.” Wow, talk about deflecting. It couldn’t possibly be because of his own bad behavior, right?
Not having it
Christine and Janelle are not letting themselves get pulled into Kody’s ongoing victim narrative. “I think he’s trying to find fault because he’s not liking things that are happening in his life,” Christine told ET. “So he’s trying to find fault with other people.”
Sounds like classic narcissist behavior.
“I feel bad that he feels like that,” Janelle added. “But it does feel like he’s trying to find a reason.”
Christine added that Kody is most likely searching for an answer as to why his life imploded. Also, reasons as to why he’s currently estranged from some of his former wives and children. But as far as she’s concerned, the relationships he should be focusing on are the ones with his kids.
“His relationship with his kids is his responsibility,” she said. “He needs to fix it.”
And that strained relationship with his children may have impacted his marriages more than he cares to admit.
He needs to be better with the kids

Christine and Janelle would love for Kody to be better with the kids. Christine, who now lives in Utah, said she’d cancel plans when Kody comes to see their youngest daughter, Truely, 13, so that she can spend time with her dad.
And both former wives agree that Kody’s friction with his kids contributed to his unraveling marriages. Christine admitted that it was a factor in her decision to leave. She said the way he was with the kids was not the relationship she wanted for them or herself.
Janelle added that she and Kody drifted apart in the natural ebb and flow of relationships, but then he became estranged from the children, and it was the sign she needed to know she had to move on.
“I would have stayed and stayed if the kids were okay,” Janelle admitted. Although she’s happy where she is now, she said she remains connected to Kody through their children and hopes he tries to repair his relationships with them.
“I hope that eventually, time heals,” Janelle concluded.

With any Real Housewives reunion seating chart, there’s going to be some level of controversy. Bravo fans are some of the most opinionated in the world, and they’ll ride or die for their favorite stars.
So, when the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 4 reunion seating chart came out, fans had plenty of thoughts to share. A lot of the discussion online centered around Monica Garcia, who was seated just to the right of Andy Cohen.
Monica’s seating spurred a minor debate among RHOSLC fans. Some thought it wasn’t kosher to put a newbie in the top spot. Others argued that Monica deserved the seat more than anyone. So, Andy decided to put in his two cents.
Monica isn’t the first newbie with top-billing
On his SiriusXM show, Radio Andy, the host addressed the discussion surrounding Monica’s reunion seat. “A lot of buzz online yesterday wondering because Bravo put out the seating chart for the reunion and Monica was sitting next to me and there was a lot of conversation about, ‘Has there ever been a first-season Housewife sitting next to me at the reunion?’
“There have been quite a few,” he said. Andy named multiple Housewives who’d been given the first chair at their first reunions, including Marlo Hampton, Shannon Beador, and Kenya Moore among others. Andy specifically recalled, “In 2014, this is the one I always remember, Kristen Taekman sat next to me on her first season of RHONY.”
When the SiriusXM clip made it to YouTube, discussion carried on in the comments. One fan wrote, “Monica ABSOLUTELY deserves the first chair. For sure! So far, most of the season, has her at the center.” Of course, others argued the opposite, with one saying, “Her whole story is very manufactured & inauthentic.”
Real Housewives of Salt Lake City continues Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.

If you thought your 2023 was rough, just know that Tori Spelling’s year has probably been worse. Not only have financial issues plagued her family, but she and her longtime husband Dean McDermott separated earlier this year. Tori and Dean share five kids, and they also had to flee their home after uncovering an extreme mold infestation. Truly, it’s been one thing after another. Then comes the tax.
Unfortunately for Tori, she can add one more thing to her unlucky list. According to The Blast, the former Beverly Hills, 90210 actress just got hit with some hefty tax liens.
Just in time for the holidays, court documents revealed that the State of California Franchise Tax Board filed several liens against Tori. The Golden State said she owes nearly $96,000 in unpaid taxes. The first lien is a result of unpaid taxes spanning from 2017 to 2019, totaling $59,049.02. The second lien was for $36,717.11 in unpaid taxes from 2021.
The State of California filed the lien against Tori’s Calabasas home. They made it clear that fees and interest will continue to mount up until the debt is fully paid off.
Unfortunately, this isn’t Tori’s first time facing tax liens. She and Dean were previously slapped with state and federal tax liens in 2016, 2017, and 2018 totaling nearly $1 million. They even had a $324 New York City state tax warrant.
Clearly, Tori is struggling to stay afloat. Meanwhile, her mother Candy Spelling has an estimated net worth of $600 million thanks to what she inherited from her late husband Aaron Spelling. In a recent interview, Dean called out his mother-in-law for not being more supportive of her struggling kids.
“It’s your daughter. It’s your flesh and blood and it’s your grandbabies,” Dean said. “And for someone who is so blessed to have so much, it would be really nice for her to share with her daughter.”
When Aaron passed away, Candy received millions and millions of dollars. Tori got $800,000. When discussing Candy’s wealth, Dean said that Tori doesn’t feel that she’s owed any money. But with these liens stacking up, it probably would be nice to have a little bit of a lifeline.
