The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Heather Gay recently revealed her feelings about using Ozempic to lose weight. And in particular, to backlash surrounding her choice to use the drug.
In an interview for ABC News, journalist Deborah Roberts told the Bravo veteran that she “represented body positivity.” But now “some women are saying it’s kind of copout.” Heather agreed, saying she’d seen the comments that called her a sell-out and unrelatable.
“It’s disappointing [and] sad to know that body positivity was all a big lie,” Heather said. “Because it’s better to not be overweight.”
Heather speaks about Mary Cosby’s “size 14” snub on Watch What Happens Live
Later in the conversation, Deborah asked Heather what she thought about Mary Cosby’s comments in RHOSLC Season 4. She made a seemingly shady joke about her co-star on Watch What Happens Live, stating she didn’t believe Gucci made corsets in a “size 14.”
Heather replied, sharing that Mary’s snub was a “typical” one. She explained: “It feels like something I’m very used to. I’m old enough to know that I have wasted a lot of years blaming myself and feeling guilty and shame over my lack of ability to be thinner. And if I had just known there was a medicine that would make me thinner with little to no effort, I would have taken it 30 years ago and probably had a different life.”
Mary later addressed her comments during the RHOSLC Season 4 reunion. She clarified that she wasn’t body-shaming the Bad Mormon author but instead asking a sincere question.
Who else is on the Ozempic wave with Heather?
Heather isn’t the only Real Housewives star who’s admitted to using Ozempic — a Type 2 diabetic drug that suppresses users’ appetites, causing them to shed pounds.
Emily Simpson from The Real Housewives of Orange County opened up about her journey in 2023, revealing the drug helped jumpstart her fitness journey. The Real Housewives of New Jersey’s Dolores Catania also confessed to using the drug during an earlier WWHL appearance. “…I wasn’t going to come to the reunion looking bigger than anyone else, so I got on the bandwagon,” she told Andy Cohen.
Jen Fessler and Margaret Josephs also joined the wave, and LeeAnne Locken from The Real Housewives of Dallas copped to it immediately. “I cannot tell a lie. There was a magic shot that I took once a week, and I just lost 35 pounds,” she revealed. “I am not complaining one penny. And if people want to be mad at me for that, well, poopy on them … I’m very happy.”
Heather is currently filming The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 5, which will likely debut on Bravo before the end of 2024.
