On a recent episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, Whitney Rose from The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City revealed that she had blocked her co-star Lisa Barlow due to receiving “horrific” text messages from her. The tension between the two escalated after Whitney’s husband poured bottles of Lisa’s Vida Tequila down the sink in a previous episode. Whitney mentioned that she will see Lisa at the upcoming reunion but had cut off communication with her for the time being.
The feud between Whitney and Lisa on RHOSLC stemmed from Whitney accusing Lisa of sharing damaging information about her jewelry brand, Prism, with an Instagram gossip account. Lisa, the Vida Tequila founder, has been vocal about calling Whitney a liar on various occasions throughout the season. Despite the accusations, Whitney expressed empathy towards Lisa, stating that she feels sorry for her because Lisa cannot prove any of the allegations. Whitney hopes to resolve their issues at the reunion and clear the air between them.
During the WWHL After Show, Whitney expressed her desire to have an open and honest conversation with Lisa at the upcoming reunion in hopes of reconciling their friendship. She emphasized the importance of resolving conflicts with friends and acknowledged the negativity that arises from ongoing feuds. Lisa, on the other hand, told Us Weekly that she is “done” with Whitney after being repeatedly accused of instigating false rumors about her, particularly regarding the Alibaba scandal. She stated that Whitney has a history of fabricating stories about her since the first season of the show.
According to Lisa, there is no way forward for her and Whitney. While she typically forgives and gives grace, Lisa has reached her limit with Whitney’s continuous lies about her. Despite being open to moving forward in the past, Lisa made it clear that this time, Whitney would have to admit her wrongdoing and apologize for the false accusations. Lisa emphasized the importance of honesty and integrity and expressed her frustration at the ongoing drama created by Whitney’s fabrications. The tension between the two seems to have reached a breaking point, and it remains to be seen if they can reconcile in the future.
