RHOSLC Star Lisa Barlow Faces Lawsuit Over Alleged Unpaid Loans - Drama Unfolds
Lisa Barlow, known for her role in the hit reality TV show "Real Housewives of Salt Lake City," is currently facing a legal storm as former friend and business partner Bart Carlson has filed a lawsuit against her. The lawsuit alleges that Barlow, along with her brands Vida Tequila and Lux Marketing, owe a substantial sum of $410,842.36 in unpaid loans dating back to a period between May 2010 and February 2018.
According to TMZ, Carlson claims that he lent the money to Barlow and her companies without a formal repayment schedule due to their close relationship. Despite his attempts to retrieve the funds over the years, Barlow reportedly stated that neither she nor her companies have the financial means to repay him.
In response to the lawsuit, the 49-year-old reality TV personality expressed deep sadness over the situation, emphasizing her surprise at Carlson's sudden claim after nearly a decade. Barlow clarified, "To be very clear, the claim that I owe Bart or his company money is untrue. I pay my bills and obligations and I always have. I look forward to the truth coming out and I intend to hold Bart fully accountable for any damage this personal attack may cause me or my businesses."
As the legal battle unfolds, the upcoming season of "RHOSLC" promises to be filled with drama for Barlow. Prior to this lawsuit, reports surfaced of a heated altercation between Barlow and fellow castmate Mary Cosby, where Cosby allegedly used a derogatory term towards Barlow's 12-year-old son, Henry.
Sources close to production revealed that the cast, including returning stars Heather Gay, Whitney Rose, Meredith Marks, and Angie Katsanevas, were disturbed by Cosby's behavior during the incident. Despite initial tensions, Barlow and Cosby reportedly reconciled over the situation and were seen filming together for a cast trip in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
As fans eagerly await the new season of "RHOSLC," the unfolding legal drama and interpersonal conflicts within the cast hint at a rollercoaster ride of emotions and revelations. Stay tuned for more updates on Lisa Barlow's journey through fame, fortune, and the challenges that come with it.
