Monica Garcia is teasing a possible Return to Bravo for one big reason.
Known for stirring the pot among the other ladies in Season 4, the "Real Housewives of Salt Lake City" alum's brief stint was packed with more drama than her co-stars could handle.
Despite enduring a miscarriage after her departure from the Bravo series, Monica Garcia may not be done with Salt Lake City yet.

Garcia hinted at a potential return to the popular Bravo series despite her tumultuous relationships with her former co-stars.
The TV personality joined Heather Gay, Whitney Rose, Lisa Barlow, Meredith Marks, and Angie Katsanevas for Season 4 of the popular Bravo series, but she exited after just one season.
Her departure was fueled by her conflicts with the other cast members, further exacerbated by the revelation that Garcia operated an Instagram troll account about the show under the name "Reality Von Tease."
Despite these issues, Garcia's presence was significant, and she is well aware of her impact on the show. In an exclusive interview, the 39-year-old reality star boldly stated she would "100 percent" return to the show, primarily to annoy her former co-stars.
The business owner also confessed, "I haven't talked to any of the other women. They are definitely holding trueon their little alliance, their little pact. And I wish them well in hell. I'm kidding –– no, I'm so serious."

The entrepreneur acknowledged that although her castmates frequently criticized her, they could not deny the significant role she played during her season.
"They know the truth. And we had an incredible season. As much as they like to paint me out of it, I was a part of it. So, you know, it is what it is with them. They have a new season coming out. Good for them. I'm sure it'll be great," she shared.
Amidst the hostility, Garcia shared with Page Six that one cast member, Mary Cosby, remained supportive.
"Mary has always been incredible. She's always been amazing. I can tell she genuinely cares about me. She'll just text me sometimes and be like, 'Are you good?' Like, she cares about my mental health and well-being," she explained.

While teasing the possibility of her comeback, Cohen also noted that it would be a great opportunity for Garcia to mend fences within the group.
The Bravo host along with producers Noah Samton and Lisa Shannon, expressed hope for Garcia's return, acknowledging her significant role in the show.
"I think the question is how will Monica, or will Monica, find her way back into this group?" Cohen pondered.
"We've had about 7,000 conversations about that subject. We probably have another few hundred ahead of us still," Samton admitted, emphasizing Garcia's unique contribution.
Samton praised Garcia for her openness and relatability, highlighting her different background and the fresh perspective she brought to the series.
However, the Brea Baby founder's alleged deception and her complicated relationships with other cast members present challenges.
In spite of these, the showrunner admitted that popularity and ratings impact could influence her return. Shannon also echoed his sentiments, describing the situation as unprecedented and complex.

In April, The Blast reported that the entertainer shared a poignant post featuring two black-and-white photos that captured the moment she learned her baby had no heartbeat.
Garcia explained in the caption why she chose to share such a private moment with her followers. The grieving mother wrote:
"One thing I promised myself when opening my life up to all of you was that I was going to do it completely unapologetically and authentically raw as possible. I would show you my life in all aspects because that is what I agreed to do."
Garcia then dropped the heartbreaking bombshell, stating, "Unfortunately, today I need to share a very heartbreaking aspect. 'There is no heartbeat.' I don't have many words, and I'm still processing all of this myself."
Despite her own pain, she expressed deep empathy for others facing similar struggles before extending her gratitude to the medical team and her "amazing support system."
