Even though she’s a pretty proud Salt Lake resident, Lisa is originally from New York. She was born and raised there but moved to Utah to attend Brigham Young University. She moved back to New York after college but was so in love with Salt Lake that she decided to move back, and she’s been there ever since. She’s been living in Utah for 20 years.

For some people, jumping from one reality show to the next has become a career. That isn’t true in Lisa Barlow’s case, however. The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City is her first reality TV appearance. She also doesn’t have any professional acting credits. With a net-worth of $5 million, she is one of the wealthiest casts on the show that showcases some of the best lifestyles on tv.
4. She Is A Mormon…But With A Twist
Lisa was raised as a practising Mormon. But her family made a considerable change and shifted to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Paragons. According to Lisa, being a Mormon is all about having “a higher conscious level of self,” and she is a firm believer in inclusivity and not judging others. So she only adheres to some of the Mormon practices she used to.

6. She Was Surprised By The Drama On The Show
Everybody knows that reality TV is nothing without some good old-fashioned drama, but Lisa still felt surprised by all the drama on RHOSLC. She told Page Six, “There’s a couple of [pot-stirrers]. Like, shockingly, a couple of them. I was surprised.” She continued, “I think some people are just naturally emotional and lead with emotion, so you got their natural, maybe even intensified emotion, but then I think there were some — two in particular — that would like anything for camera.” But as of season 3, we think Lisa is still shocked by the drama, even being involved in fights with a former friend, Meredith Marks. Here are ten things you didn’t know about Meredith Marks.
