The Real Housewives franchise has been expanding over the years, and in 2020, Bravo announced a new addition to the cast from Salt Lake City. The show follows the lives of six women who reside in one of the most conservative cities in the United States. The ladies come from different backgrounds and lead disparate lives, but share a common denominator - love for drama and showmanship. Whitney Rose is the youngest cast member of the show, and was brought up in a polygamist cult that she eventually left. She is married to Justin Rose and has two children. Whitney's storyline involves her adjusting to life outside the cult and building a business for herself, but also confronts her with marital problems. Lisa Barlow is a quintessential entrepreneur, having started several businesses, including her own tequila brand. Lisa is married to John Barlow, and they have two children. She is embroiled in an ongoing feud with one of the other housewives, and the two trade (and occasionally, scream) barbs the entire season. Meredith Marks, married to Seth Marks, is a successful jewelry designer, and, like Lisa, also has two children. Marks' designs have been featured on the red carpet, including the Oscars, by A-list celebrities like Rihanna and Zendaya. Marks and Lisa are close friends, but Meredith is keeping a secret, and it's not about her jewelry collection. Other cast members include Jen Shah, who runs her own marketing company, and whose personality can be summed up by her tagline: "I'm Shah-mazing!" Jen is married to Sharrieff Shah, a University of Utah college football coach, and together they have two children. We also meet Heather Gay, who owns a cosmetic spa empire, which she started after she divorced her husband. Finally, there's Mary Cosby, married to her late grandmother's husband, Robert Cosby Sr. Mary claims that she never wanted to marry her step-grandfather, but it's part of her faith, which they follow in their church. The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City explores the complexities of the women's lives and how their orthodox religions and belief systems influence their day-to-day routine. The show reveals that Salt Lake City is not just a city of Mormons, but has diverse religious beliefs. The ladies are devout followers of their respective religions and personalities, but they clash when their practices and principles are challenged. Their conversations move from small talk to serious discussions that need airing out. They share their feelings, thoughts, and opinions without hesitation or fear of judgment. The show features the women throwing lavish parties and get-togethers that are as over the top as they are stylish. The episodes are filled with drama, tears, laughter, and everything in between. We witness the women's lives - their businesses, their personal lives, their style and how they manage family with their ever-expanding social circles. The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City is the first of its kind to feature a city that's less popular compared to the likes of Los Angeles, New York, and Beverly Hills. The show proves that drama and excess can come from anywhere - and of course, nothing screams drama like a group of women. The show received positive reviews from viewers, citing the women's unique backgrounds, their strong friendships, and their fiery confrontations. The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City put the town on the map, and fans are eagerly anticipating the next season, which will hopefully continue to bring the manufactured and solidified drama that we love.
