I wish we could've seen Lauren's reaction when she opened her mailbox to find the note inside. I'll bet the Montag sisters were hoping it was something along the lines of this (to be imagined in your best Old English accent): "What's this? Oh, a letter...from Heidi? She misses our friendship...is sorry! Oh, bugger, who cares that it's been two years? I must go to her now so we can build upon what's been broken. This is the dawn of a new era."

Of course, that's precisely the opposite of what went down when Lauren got the letter, which she blatantly handed to Whitney so it could, you know, be read on national TV: "Lauren, I just wanted to tell you how sorry I am about everything. I am so sorry for any negative or hurtful comment I have ever said. That is not how I feel or who I am. I think you are a great person, and I will always cherish our memories. Thank you for everything you have ever done for me. I really wish things hadn't turned out this way, but I take responsibility. This whole thing has also been really hard for me. Sincerely, Heidi Montag"

Setting aside the fact that she signed it with her last name (because I'm sure Lauren knows at least two other Heidi's with whom she is currently clashing), it did, as Whitney commented, seem like a genuine letter. After all, she does owe a lot to Lauren (ahem, she landed her a cushy gig on a reality show), and she probably is — somewhere deep down inside — apologetic for her immature behavior in the past. Still, I just can't get fully behind any of this nonsense because I don't think Heidi has the ability to do anything meaningful anymore without some sort of ulterior motive behind it. If she's truly hoping for a clean slate, she should try communicating with Lauren when the cameramen aren't around.
