Reality TV
TheRHOSLCreunion gave some partial answers to the seasons ongoing mystery.
During the sit-down with host Andy Cohen, Heather at least partially came clean.
I dont know what happened.
For me, I have a lot of Mormon shame about drinking, she said.
I woke up in a very very high stress situation with so much shame and humiliation.
And it didnt go away.
But I certainly do not want to implicate anyone here, anyone on production.
Its my own guilt and shame about blacking out and not being able to explain it.
There is no additional footage, Cohen said.
Otherwise it wouldve been shown.
I remember coming to my room, taking my wig off, and thats it.
So what really happened?
Below, the best theories including one that a podcaster says hes confirmed is true.
The only reason, amateur detective Whitney Rose suggests, would be to protect that person.
Wouldnt a physical fight on a television show cast doubt on that claim?
Heathers own statements during part one of theRHOSLCreunion leave this theory still in play as a possibility.
If I knew Jen did that, I would cover it up, she said.
But that was not my intention.
I was blacked out.
Ive seen black eyes.
That was not a black eye of roughhousing, she says.
Thats like a shiner.
This was like her whole eye was black.
It was like blunt force.
In a separate After Show interview, Lisa Barlow weighs in.
Im like, OK, they were pretty wasted.
Im like, Heather, do you need more attention?
Is this a diversion from like, last nights conversation?
Reddit user bellbert, meanwhile,supports the accident theory.
I believe Heather had this bruise as early as Night 1.
Danna bumps up hard against her, and Heather plops down, looking stunned.
At the reunion, Angie Katsanevas suggested that she still believes Jen was involved in Heathers black eye somehow.
It Was…
In the Jan. 11 episode, Angie Katsanevas suggests another theory involving Jen.
At part one of the reunion, its brought up again.
It Was… A Botox Side Effect?
And those arent scratches they are lipstick marks, she wrote in a since-deleted tweet.
It Was… A Faucet?!
Nobody hit her, and its not bad Botox.
She banged her eye…
