Lisa Barlow Shares Her Thoughts on Which ‘RHOSLC’ Castmate Should Leave the Show

In a new interview, Lisa Barlow recently shared her feelings about her Season 5 castmates and who she would get rid of if given the chance.

Bravo is currently in the middle of airing “RHOSLC’s” three-part reunion, which will see Barlow at the center of much of the conflict.

However, for the owner of VIDA Tequila and fans of the show, this territory is not unfamiliar. Barlow has played a significant role in the program’s drama since her conflicts with most of the cast in Season 1.

Her relationships with some of the women became more complicated over time, as seen during the recent reunion’s first two parts. Barlow had intense disagreements with newcomer Bronwyn Newport as well as returnees Angie Katsanevas and Whitney Rose.

Despite the overwhelming pressure, Barlow remains unbroken. She expressed her readiness to come back for Season 6 in an interview with the DailyMail, provided Bravo is willing to have her return.

On the other hand, though, she’s not looking forward to filming with a few of her castmates. In fact, there’s someone in particular she’d already have on the chopping block if she were calling the shots.

“I mean, I wouldn’t have asked Whitney back last year or this year,” Barlow said. “… she’s another one that her storyline this whole year was lie, lie, lie.”

She continued, saying she’s tried to work on her relationship with Rose.

However, Barlow noted that getting to a better place with the latter has been complicated because she lacks trust. “… it gets old with the lies,” she said.

Throughout Season 5, Barlow had several explosive arguments with Newport and Rose. And it didn’t stop there. She also briefly fought with Mary Cosby and Katsanevas.

At the reunion, some of the ladies called Barlow out for being cold and aggressive, an accusation she’s defended herself against since the show began airing in 2020.

During her interview, Barlow also called out her Park City, Utah, co-stars for throwing dirt on her liquor brand, VIDA, seemingly hinting that they were envious of her successes.

“… no one else has what I have,” she said before saying she’s the only “RHOSLC” cast member to create a product “that can sell for hundreds of millions of dollars.”

She went on to say that she differs from the others because she joined the series as a “self-made” woman who was “10 steps ahead” of the others. “I think it’s hard for them,” she said.

Although Barlow shared strong opinions about which of her SLC girlfriends she’d axe from their highly successful series, fans couldn’t disagree more.

In the comments, several users voiced their displeasure with Barlow, 50, who’s arguably one of the franchise’s breakout stars.

“I’d like to see Lisa and Meredith [Marks] axed,” one user wrote. “Their constant whining is not entertaining anymore.”

Someone else clearly agreed, writing that if Bravo was ever planning to clear the cast, they should “start with Lisa.” According to them, Barlow is one reality star “who never takes responsibility” for her behavior and “thinks way too highly of herself.”

Perhaps Barlow’s castmates have a reason to talk.

In the summer of 2024, the “Real Housewives” OG was sued by a friend, Bart Carlson, for over $400,000. According to reports, Carlson allegedly loaned the mother of two large quantities of money over the years to help her businesses, VIDA and Luxe Marketing.

Carlson claimed to first loan Barlow money in 2010 and continued issuing her money until February 2018. According to him, whenever he inquired about recouping the money he gave out, Barlow mentioned her struggling finances as the reason she couldn’t repay him.

Barlow, who’s always ready to defend herself against her biggest detractors, fired back, calling the claims “untrue.”

The outspoken TV star acknowledged her relationship with the plaintiff, saying the pair were partners in the food industry; however, their business closed almost a decade prior.

“I pay my bills and obligations, and I always have. In addition, Bart has no interest in Luxe Marketing or Vida Tequila and did not invest in either business,” Barlow said.

She finished, saying she looked forward to being vindicated before mentioning she planned to hold Carlson “accountable for any damage” the “personal attack may cause me or my businesses.”
