“Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” star Monica Garcia shared her thoughts about her mother, Linda’s recent social media posts in the November 3 episode of the “Two Ts In A Pod” podcast, co-hosted by Tamra Judge and Teddi Mellencamp.
While recording the “Two Ts In A Pod” episode, Garcia seemed to reference her mother’s October 18 X post. In the upload, Linda wrote that “Monica begged [her] to do this reality show” for its 4th season. According to Linda’s social media post, she was not interested in appearing in RHOSLC and believes that her daughter “did [her] dirty.” She also stated Garcia’s claim that she “abandoned her” during her childhood was untrue.
While speaking to Judge and Mellencamp, Garcia stated that her situation with her “mother is bad.” She explained that she has not been in contact with her mother since the filming of RHOSLC season 4 wrapped. She also stated she was upset with what her mother liked and shared on X.
“Seeing what she has been doing on Twitter is insane. It’s insane. It’s the retweets and the likes of the nastiness about me that I’m like, ‘You’re my mother,'” said Garcia.
Garcia also discussed her issues with her mother’s social media posts in a November 2023 interview with Access Hollywood. She stated that her mother’s behavior on X “shocked” her.
“I did not expect that low of a situation to happen. It’s the retweets and the likes of awful things said about me that I’m like, ‘You’re my mom.’ You know, so it’s been hard. That aspect has been hard,” said Garcia.
In addition, Garcia shared her mother’s online posts have worsened their relationship while speaking to Us Weekly in November 2023.
“What she’s been doing online has kind of made it worse, for sure,” said the mother of four.
