We Have a Surprising Update on Meredith Marks and Lisa Barlow’s Friendship

Are things between Meredith Marks and Lisa Barlow finally thawing out?

As Bravo fans know, the former besties had a major falling out after Lisa’s hot mic moment on Season 2 of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. And while the two tried to work past their issues, they could never seem to get back on one accord – at least until now.

Most recently, Meredith opened up about where her friendship currently stands with Lisa during a chat with E! News. She also shared what to expect from them in the upcoming season of RHOSLC. (Get a sneak peek of the drama by watching the Season 4 trailer above.)

During the interview, Meredith discussed how she and Lisa are “definitely better” than the previous year, but their friendship is still a work in progress. “We're real people with real feelings and so there are times where you see ups and downs,” she said.

Despite their disagreements and everything they went through, Meredith remains optimistic about what the future holds for her and Lisa, saying, "Trust has to be rebuilt and it takes a moment."

Of course, only time will tell if Meredith and Lisa can repair their bond to what it once was, but she did reveal that we’ll have a chance to see the long “journey” of how they managed to get in a good place on RHOSLC Season 4.

Meredith isn’t the only one sharing details from the new season of RHOSLC. Last month, Lisa appeared on the August 15 episode of Craig Conover and Austen Kroll’s podcast, where she teased what’s to come for her and her castmates on Season 4, revealing, “I actually think this is our best season we’ve ever had.”

The Vida Tequila owner also took the time to share that this season is “probably [her] favorite” because “it’s not as dark.” Lisa continued, “The fights are so ridiculous, but intense… It’s an intense season, but it’s so nice not having some of the really dark stuff.”
