Monica Garcia calls out RHOSLC newbie Britani Bateman for trying to blame her dirty deeds on the now-former Salt Lake City Housewife.
While appearing on the February 13 episode of Tamra Judge and Teddi Mellencamp’s podcast, Two Ts In A Pod, Monica Garcia shared alleged “voice notes” from Britani Bateman, claiming that the rumored RHOSLC newbie is trying to blame Monica for her own social media “burner accounts.”
As Bravo fans know, Monica Garcia was placed in a time out, aka a “cooling off period,” following season 4 of the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. After learning that Monica was one of the internet trolls behind the shady Reality Von Tease Instagram account, the RHOSLC cast made it clear that they didn’t want to film with her moving forward.
During the podcast interview, Teddi brought up the fact that there is some major gossip going around about one of the alleged RHOSLC season 5 newbies.
“I’ve already seen some things that Britani [Bateman], the alleged new Salt Lake City housewife, has some fan burner accounts,” Teddi explains.
Before spilling the tea, Monica notes that she’s taken Tamra’s advice of “playing nice” and not going wild on social media.
“I have been very quiet. I haven’t done or said anything,” Monica noted before revealing that she’s been bombarded with information about Britani.
“The amount of people that have sent me voice notes from this Britani girl — of her blaming all these burner accounts on me — is astounding,” Monica revealed.
“I’ve never met her in my life … I have no idea who she is. I don’t know anything about her. I’ve never heard of her, but I’ve already seen some things [about] Britani.”
“[I’ve listened] to voice notes of her saying like, ‘These [burner accounts], I’m thinking these are all Monica,’” she continued. “And I’m like, Why are you doing it? What the hell?”
“It sounds like projecting because she has been busted opening up Finstas for her boyfriend to make him look like a heartthrob or something,” Tamra interjects, which Monica can’t help but agree with before spilling what she knows about the gossip.
According to the 40-year-old, from what she can ascertain, it seems that Britani has “several [fan] accounts,” gushing over herself and her “guy” Jared Osmond.
“From what people are sending me, it’s like several accounts, like, of fan accounts. I don’t know. Like, Fanning her, fanning the guy,” Monica said.
“I don’t know. All I know is she’s blaming it on me, and I’m like, ‘Wow,’” she added.
