Everything about Monica Garcia from RHOSLC — Age, Job, Ex-Husband, and More
Introducing Monica Niki Garcia
The Portuguese-Colombian mother of four is the fiery new housewife in town and fits right into the classic RHOSLC lifestyle. Born on June 1, 1983, this 40-year-old entrepreneur hails from Utah where she resides in Salt Lake City with her family now. Her official Bravo biography sheds more light on what makes this boss lady click, and be a well-deserved addition to the RHOSLC clique.
The bio reads:
“Blunt, opinionated and never afraid to speak her mind.”
What does Monica Garcia do for a living?
She is recognized as an American businesswoman, reality TV star, and social media personality. Garcia is the founder and creative director of her baby product brand Breababy.
Strangely, the official Instagram account for the company, @officiallybreababy, hasn't been updated since January 2023, therefore the online store is no longer accessible. Monica Garcia's exact net worth remains unknown, too.
Is Monica Garcia single?
Her relationship status has been a captivating enigma, as foreshadowed in the trailer of RHOSLC season 4. Although she had previously been married in a temple, she revealed that she had afterward been excommunicated, which raised the allure of her ex-husband's identity. There is a possibility that Monica could introduce him and even discuss their past relationship on the show.
However, it is worth noting that she has been in an 18-month relationship with someone else, whom she might reveal during the course of this season. Either way, Monica will definitely serve viewers with the weekly dose of reality drama they deserve.
Monica Garcia's children and family life
Regardless of everything else, Monica is a devoted mother to her four children. There is not much available about her kids, except for the occasional sneak peek she allows fans of the show into the lives of her children.
Her Bravo bio also hints that season 4 will give an intimate glimpse at Monica's journey as a single mom navigating the complexities of divorcing her husband for the second time!
Concurrently, the plot will also showcase Monica focusing on raising her children while trying to fix the broken relationship she shares with her mother. Monica shared another adorable insight into her job responsibilities as a hands-on mother via her Instagram handle, @monicanikigarcia:
