Meredith Marks is returning for Season 5 of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. The Jewelry Designer is an OG RHOSLC star and has built a dedicated fanbase over the last 4 seasons. We’re thrilled she’s coming back for another round.
To celebrate her return, let’s take a look back at some of her best moments on the show.
Here are Meredith’s most iconic moments on RHOSLC so far…
When Meredith Marks was defensive over her bathtub
Bathtub-gate has to be one of my favorite RHOSLC storylines. In the Season 4 premiere, Meredith confronted Whitney Rose about a comment she made in an interview with the New York Post. Whitney was asked by the reporter how she felt about Meredith and her husband, Seth, taking baths together. The RHOSLC star told the outlet she was not fond of the idea because of the amount of bacteria that lives in a bathtub. She added that the idea of bathing with another person “creeps [her] out.”
The comment offended Meredith, who takes great pride in her bathtub. She felt as though Whitney was calling her “dirty” and “creepy.” She tried to talk to Whitney about the comments but was unsuccessful. Whitney insisted that it was just a joke, but Meredith doubled down. She told her co-star, “It was a dig on my marriage and a dig on my bathtub.”
This storyline was completely ridiculous but it really made me laugh. I love how protective Meredith is over her bathtub.
When Meredith Marks took an hour-long bath
Speaking of Meredith’s affinity for baths, we have to talk about her infamous soak while Jen Shah was getting arrested. She traveled to the Vail house separately from the other women. They were still in the sprinter van when she arrived. She had some time to kill, so she decided to take a nice, relaxing bubble bath. While she bathed, the women were in the van discovering Jen was wanted on fraud charges. Yikes.
Once the women arrived in Vail, Meredith remained in the tub. The editing of the women freaking out about Jen stitched with Meredith enjoying her bubble bath was beyond iconic. She defended her right to self-care during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live.
“I love to bathe…It’s my place of peace,” she said. “So, with everything that was going on, I needed to take it down for a minute. I just needed to relax. It was probably about an hour-long bath. I don’t think that’s anything so crazy.” You do you, girl.
When Meredith Marks spread rumors about Lisa Barlow
Meredith was harboring a grudge against Lisa Barlow in Season 3. The previous season ended with Lisa’s hot-mic moment in which she claimed Meredith had slept with half of New York and couldn’t own a home.
Naturally, Meredith was out for revenge, so she spread a rumor about Lisa sleeping around for Utah Jazz tickets. So messy. Lisa has always denied the rumor. If she’s selling anything for basketball tickets, it’s Vida Tequila. The rumor never really took off and it seemed to be unfounded but Meredith’s attempt at getting even made me LOL. Vengeful Queen!
When Meredith told Angie K to leave the dinner
Meredith’s most iconic moment has to be her dinner rant in Season 4. The drama began when Angie Katsanevas showed up uninvited to Meredith’s Palm Springs trip. The two ladies tried to play nice but their feud came to a head one night over dinner.
Angie threw the first stone but Meredith won the war. After Angie suggested her rival’s business was unsuccessful, Meredith ordered her to leave the dinner. We’ll never forget the look in her eyes when she yelled, “YOU CAN LEAVE.” Angie, of course, refused to leave the table, so Meredith elicited the help of a waiter, who had no authority to throw a customer out of the restaurant. She also threatened to expose secrets about Angie’s husband, telling the women she had some serious dirt on their co-star.
The Palm Springs dinner fight was peak housewives and Meredith’s behavior was beyond legendary. We still have no idea why she kept slipping into a British accent during this scene but hey, we aren’t complaining. It was great TV.
