Heather Gay’s memoir is proving to be less of an unbearing of the soul than a problematic source of discord. One particular passage in Good Time Girl is causing strife. It involves former Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Jen Shah and her husband Sharrieff Shah.
According to Heather’s memoir, Coach Shah made a move on RHOSLC alum Monica Garcia. All parties involved, save for Heather, have denied the allegations.
Heather Gay claimed Monica Garcia came to her with the information
Us Weekly released the shocking text that supposedly happened before Monica was cast on RHOSLC. Heather wrote that the alum came to her with claims that Coach tried to kiss her. The situation concluded when Monica “pushed him off.”
According to Heather, Monica was “pining” for Jen’s husband “from the moment she met him, and this was one of her absurd fantasies.”
People reported Jen and Coach denied anything Heather wrote was true. A rep for the couple also pointed out Monica’s past as RealityVonTease, a gossip page bent on exposing Jen.
“We categorically deny Heather Gay and Monica’s statements,” the rep said. “Coach Shah has never had or attempted to have a romantic relationship with Monica at any time. Both my clients Jen and Sharrieff Shah have ignored the continuous attempts for bait by Monica and others for storyline. Jen continues to remain consistent with her journey of positive rehabilitation, and will not entertain frivolous narratives from those seeking a rise from her or her family.”
Monica labeled the passage as “false allegations”
Monica released her own statement, in which she passed the blame on to Heather.
“It’s truly sad and worrisome that Heather Gay has nothing else to write about than twisted and false allegations in a desperate attempt to try and tarnish the reputations of two families,” she said in a statement. “The lies told about me by Heather continue to reach new lows and the only fantasies happening here are the ones she’s concocting in her book.”
Monica continued, “To clarify, I have never said that Sharrieff Shah and I kissed nor has there ever been anything romantic or physical between Sharrieff and I. To so carelessly write such untrue and damaging allegations in permanent ink at the expense of others for financial gain is deplorable. There is a reason why [former TV producer] Carlos King dubbed Heather Gay the most dangerous housewife.”
