Last night, RHOSLC returned and this time Mary and her church are under scrutiny. The thing that got me was that Mary gave her cast mates about $15 - $20 thousand dollars of gifts from designers. It did look like a buy off. I just read an article from the daily beast that several ex members of her church report she bullies them into giving lots of money. The extravagant lifestyle (clothes, jewelry, homes) is not a good look for a church leader. Is this the link? If so...here ya'll go! Is This ‘Real Housewives’ Star Really Running a Cult? Ex-Church Members Say Yes

I think that Whitney and Heather show what a difference it makes on these shows when the women are genuine friends and were before the show started. They have each others backs and will take action to genuinely support each other because their friendship is real. You don't see that with forced friendships where the women will watch another suffer figuring that person will be recast so it won't matter.

Mary is so used to manipulating her congregants that she thought she could manipulate the Bravo audience as well. I'm wondering how the suckers in her congregation feel about seeing how she spends their hard-earned money?
Obviously I wrote the above before reading the lengthy article posted. OMG! How can people fall for such a scam? I had always assumed she had rather wealthy parishioners. Seems not. Just gullible and easily conned ones. Sad.

I think she's a bully, I wouldn't take any gifts from her. She made a racist remark about Mexicans and she called Heather, chubby. She thinks she can say what she wants, and get away with it. I don't know why the others are so scared of her..Whit isn't! Is Shah back next week, she was crying in the previews, and the botox stopped her face from moving.. Mary talked about black people before and now Mexicans. Like really Mary? She seemed taken back by the ladies and was stuttering and couldn't find the ''right'' words....hmmmm, something tells me all these rumors about her are true. Lisa is for sure a two-faced person. I felt bad for Whitney and Heather... Whitney and Heather are great fun, Lisa and Meredith try too hard, but I'll see when Jen Shah is back...

Why did Mary agree to come to Vail if she is going to complain about everyone and everything?! She is insufferable..it's like she doesn't know how to have fun. I love how glammed up Shah was to see her lawyer (so kidding)... I've never been to Vail..looks very pretty/ Mary ruins the trip for herself. Buzzkill. She's a germaphobe, she should check out that wig she wears..it looks ratty. One thing with SLC, they have more going on than just Shah. BH it was the Giradi story all the time... Vail is very pretty and caters to the very high end ski crowd and tourist. And Mary making the comment about the staff cleaning the earrings in the store when Meredith tried them off so loud that everyone heard, was so ridiculous. Believe me, the store owners were holding it in trying not to laugh at the tacky woman who clearly didn't know where she was and didn't belong there.

Wow stargazer! We all should visit Mary with “questions” about her church. If you’re a parishioner and question her , apparently you’re not showered with expensive presents, though. … That’s quite a haul in the instagram post! Although those are just the boxes… we don’t really know what’s inside. 🤔

I think it is time to ban Lisa Barlow from appearing on WWHL. She is the worst guest ever! Andy asks he about things that happened in the episode that aired right before the show, and she gives answers as if she cannot give away spoilers. She does not seem to understand that after the show has aired, viewers don't want to know what they saw ... they want her to give a little more insight into what she was thinking or what we did NOT see.

Even Heather gave her the side eye, as she willingly through Stu under the bus. If she's guilty, I hope everyone leaves her alone. They are obviously staying away from her, because it's alleged she stole from seniors.

Jen’s self pity in the restaurant scene with heather does make me slightly sick.
The poor-me act gets old pretty quickly. Especially when you’re running a business scamming gullible people. As heather points out — she’ll throw even her best friend under the bus in her stampede for higher ground. I couldn’t stop looking at her talon-like fingernails as she wiped the “tears” from her eyes and gesticulated about the faithlessness of her faithful friends.
I do have to wonder about the overkill of law enforcement personnel in this country. We’re ar15 weapons were really necessary?— she may be hard hearted and/or a bit on the psychopathic end of the spectrum— but she’s not a violent criminal.

More of Jen Shah and her crocodile tears…
Lisa needs to shut up. She talks too much and everyone else is getting sick of it, too.
Once again Mary says another racist remark! Is she oblivious or downright racist?? And she supposedly follows God. What a nasty hypocrite she is! And then saying she didn’t say anything bad about Jen Shah..give me a break! Love how all of the sudden she wants to be her friend! Her husband seems to be indifferent when it comes to her (Mary).

Lisa most definitely needs to shut up. I thoroughly enjoyed Meredith telling her she needs to stop talking because she's been yelling for 30 minutes Lisa DID not take it well that Meredith was bothered with her. Both Lisa and Mary were hypocrites with Jen. Funny how they both were kissing her butt. Mary is definitely racist. I couldn't believe she said the yellow tones and slanted eyes remarks. Why doesn't anyone say something? I think they are all seriously scared of her.

Lisa is so brittle, she's wound up way too tight. Take a chill pill Mary is terrible, I like slanted eyes..? Meredith and her private eye..lol
I think everyone at that table, thinks Jen is guilty..

I think the other women know it’s useless to call Mary out because she’s so self involved she’s never hear it. I mean, the woman says things on camera then claims she said the opposite with the same women she was on camera with and honestly think is she can get away with it? She’s on a planet of her own!
Lisa talks non stop but never says a thing. I think the others should just talk right over her not acknowledging she’s speaking. She’d probably not even notice.
With all the times these women storm off only to be persuaded by another woman to come back, I wonder how much producers reminding them they are under contract to be there we don’t see.

This is taking a break, until next year. Just when I started to enjoy these ladies,as strange as some of them are.

I'm always grateful for the holiday break! It allows me to catch up on some other movies and shows I want to watch during a couple of weeks that my viewing schedule is not normal! Having some time away from Mary may be a good thing!

Was it just my interpretation, or did the scene between Jen and her mom come across as if her mom was brought on with the purpose of claiming that the culture they grew up in put the pressure on the oldest daughter to provide for everyone and that’s why Jen did what she did? It came across as very manipulative and tasteless to me!

Yes...there was definitely some manipulation going on there. Also with the fact that she was giving back to the community during the conversation.
Can we just talk about Meredith's outfit? What was going on there?!?
