Oh, s**t! Just like Vanderpump Rules, The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City will be moving forward without its most scandalous cast member! Monica Garcia has officially been removed from the cast list for season 5, People confirmed on Tuesday — this after just one very dramatic season!
If you missed it, the mother of four (and the first Latina to join the cast) truly stirred the pot all season long, but especially in the finale when she admitted to being one of the people who was behind the Instagram troll account RealityVonTease, which has a history of posting nasty things about the RHOSLC stars.
It was a pretty f**king wild reveal! And naturally, it caused a massive rift in the friend group.

Now, it sounds like the Bravo execs made the final call. Per multiple People sources, the 40-year-old breakout star won’t be joining (former) co-stars Heather, Meredith Marks, Lisa Barlow, Whitney Rose, and Angie Katsanevas as they begin filming the new season next month.
