Season 4 of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City showcased a real mother of a relationship. I’m referring, of course, to Monica Garcia and her mother, Linda Darnell. Their seemingly toxic relationship played out at Angie Katsanevas’ Greek Easter gathering. It was shocking to see the way that they treated each other. And Vanderpump Rules star Lala Kent is Team Monica.
Monica decided to bring her mom on the show when their relationship was in a pretty good place. But that shifted quickly. At the Season 4 reunion, Monica claimed that Linda prayed that she would be cast on the show instead of her daughter. Yikes. Linda denied Monica’s accusations. Color me shocked.
Monica’s situation has Lala in her feelings
Lala addressed Monica’s involvement in the Reality Von Tease snark account on her podcast, Give Them Lala. While Lala didn’t support Monica’s activities, she did have feelings about the one-and-done housewife’s relationship with her mother.
“Monica, she has now opened up about what a toxic mom she grew up with,” Lala said. “You sit there and you’re like, ‘Yes, we’ve all been dealt [expletive] hands.’ And it’s all about how you deal with it.” Lala stated that she “couldn’t help but feel so heartbroken for [Garcia].” She added, “[I was] like, ‘No wonder you are the way you are.’”
However, Lala didn’t give Monica a pass for her behavior towards her RHOSLC co-stars. “But at the same time, I come from a place of such privilege. And I had such an incredible upbringing and even though I may not be trolling people on the internet, I’ve certainly done other things that I’m not proud of. So it’s like at what point do you practice compassion?” Lala commented. “And sympathy and empathy for someone because of maybe what they’ve been through. But also keep your guard up.”
Monica’s complex relationship with her mother certainly didn’t excuse her actions. But it does give a glimpse into how, and why, Monica could betray all the ladies without a second thought.
The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City is available to stream on Peacock.
