Heather Gay was a fan-favorite during Season 1 of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. She is a divorced mom with three daughters. She also founded the successful Beauty Lab + Laser. The Bravo star has also been open about stepping away from her Mormon faith. Heather even wrote a book about her life, titled Bad Mormon.
While fans loved Heather’s witty remarks and down-to-earth personality, her behavior suddenly changed. She seemed cold to her cousin and bestie, Whitney Rose. And Heather blindly defended Jen Shah and supported her after her shocking arrest. Right up until Jen changed her plea to guilty.
So, did Heather change after the first season of RHOSLC? Or was Heather’s real personality on display in Season 2? Of course, it’s not too late for Heather to regain her status as a fan- favorite. All she needs to do is follow these handy suggestions.
Heather Gay Can Apologize for Defending Jen Shah
Heather spent much of the second and third seasons standing by Jen. In 2021, Jen was charged with conspiracy to commit money laundering and conspiracy to commit wire fraud. The telemarketing scams Jen was involved in often took advantage of the elderly.
Jen proclaimed her innocence, and Heather believed her friend. But both Heather and Meredith Marks were stunned when Jen changed her plea. The ladies were with Jen in New York City ahead of her upcoming trial.
In July 2022, Jen pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit wire fraud. She was sentenced to six and half years in the slammer, which is pretty Shah-mazing. She was looking at decades in prison.
“Everything changed for me when she pled guilty,” Heather stated. “Now my focus is on the victims and her family and the collateral damage of this crime that she perpetuated and admitted to perpetuating,” she added. Being associated with Jen wouldn’t be a good look.
Heather apologizing for supporting Jen could go a long way with RHOSLC viewers.
Make Amends With Whitney Rose
During Season 3, it was shocking to watch Heather and Whitney viciously attack each other during a lingerie party. Whitney told Lisa Barlow that Angie Harrington spilled some gossip. According to Whitney, Angie told her, and Heather, that Lisa performed sexual favors to get Utah Jazz tickets. Seriously?
When Heather denied hearing the rumor, the argument became ugly. She even shoved Whitney out of her way. “You lost me, b***h!” Heather screamed at her cousin.
The two former besties couldn’t get back on the same page. It was heartbreaking when Heather didn’t support Whitney as she dealt with past abuse issues. Where was Heather’s kindness and compassion? And Heather felt betrayed because Whitney wanted a “friendship break.”
During Season 3 of Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip, Whitney and Heather continued to squabble. By the end of the trip, their relationship was in a better place. Although they hit another rough patch at BravoCon 2022.
US Weekly reported in September 2023 that the duo was back on “solid” ground. I hope so. The friendship between Whitney and Heather was a plus for the series. I love “Bad Weather!”
Heather Gay Can Explain Her Black Eye
During the cast trip to Arizona, Heather woke up with a shiner. At first, she hinted that someone knew what happened to her. The other ladies were distressed about Heather’s condition.
At the Salt Lake City reunion, the author claimed that she “blacked out” because she drank too much. But later, Heather claimed that Bravo should have footage of whatever happened. “But there [were] cameras everywhere, and they should have footage of it, and I don’t know why they’re not showing it,” Heather stated.
The most popular theory was that Jen gave Heather the black eye. And Heather kept quiet because Jen was, at that time, headed to trial.
But Heather’s ever-shifting stories about her shiner annoyed viewers. Most expected to hear the truth at the reunion. If Heather told RHOSLC fans now, it would help repair her image. And finally put to bed the most famous black eye in Real Housewives history.
Don’t Meddle in Lisa Barlow’s Religious Views
During Season 4, Lisa shared that her son, Jack Barlow, decided to go on a mission trip instead of to college. And Heather had some concerns. Heather didn’t feel like Lisa practiced Mormonism. According to Heather, Mormons typically abstain from tea, alcohol, and coffee. And Lisa owns a tequila company.
While Heather worried about what Jack would be like when he returned from his mission, Whitney crossed her fingers that Heather would stay out of it. Lisa was already emotional about her son’s decision.
Just because Heather went on a mission doesn’t give her the right to meddle in Lisa’s beliefs. If Lisa and her family are happy, what is the harm? Hopefully, Heather can avoid feuding all season with Lisa about how Mormon she is. Then maybe Heather can reclaim her rightful place as a fan-favorite housewife.
