Is Lisa Barlow Leaving ‘Real Housewives of Salt Lake City’?

Lisa Barlow, the tequila connoisseur in a land of soda pops, has been spotted in a completely different state during the filming of the upcoming season of the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. What’s going on? Is Barlow trading being a housewife for Ben Affleck movie promo?

Why did the rumors start?

At first, it looked like Barlow skipping out on big group trips on the show. Mary Cosby, Angie Katsanevas, Meredith Marks, Heather Gay, Whitney Rose, and Bronwyn Newport were spotted filming at hot springs in Utah over the weekend— without Barlow. It didn’t seem to ring any alarm bells until people began speculating on Barlow’s absence. On March 11, RHOSLC fan pages started claiming that Barlow removed the show’s name from her Instagram bio. Then, a parody page posted a fake statement from Barlow that read: “It was a long run! When life gives you real problems this reality shit doesn’t make sense. Peace out I’m out.” Barlow herself has been keeping quiet on the rumors. She’s been at SXSW for the past week, making herself royalty at another arts festival. Podcaster Up and Adam! claims that Barlow is holding out for a hiring paycheck from Bravo; he alleges Barlow is looking for a $1 million salary for this season.

So, is Lisa Barlow coming back?

It seems like she is. She was spotted filming with her husband by a fan in Salt Lake City on the same day the rumors were spreading. It looks like the queen of Sundance is here to stay and possibly got a pay bump. Sorry, Whitney and the other housewives Barlow feuds with— the rumors couldn’t even last a fourth night.
