Heather Gay delivered the performance of a lifetime on the Season 4 finale of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. She showed up in that yellow draped dress ready to make history. Her Reality Von Tease speech in Bermuda has to be the most talked about Real Housewives moment of 2024 thus far and got some new viewers interested in the show. In honor of her viral moment, let’s take a look back at some of Heather Gay’s best moments on RHOSLC.
When She Started a Choir
In Season 3 of RHOSLC, Heather decided to get in touch with her spiritual side again and start a choir. The choir storyline offered some much-needed comedic relief in a season that mostly revolved around Jen Shah‘s legal troubles.
We loved Heather’s storyline for a few reasons, mainly the fact that she made all her friends audition in front of her. Plus, it gave us Lisa Barlow singing “Away in a Manger,” which made the rounds on social media for months.
When Heather Got a Black Eye
Heather’s black eye reveal in Season 3 has to be one of the most talked about RHOSLC moments. During a trip to San Diego, Heather took off her sunglasses to reveal a nasty shiner that shocked her castmates. The black eye itself was surprising but what really got fans interested in the story was Heather’s coyness about the whole thing. The blonde beauty refused to reveal how she got the black eye, at times saying she “blacked out” and didn’t remember. Hmm. Sure, Heather.
The storyline has been the source of internet speculation for years. Could it be from a cosmetic surgery gone wrong? Did she fall when drunk? Did Jen Shah sock her friend in the eye?
Viewers were starting to suspect we may never know the truth about Heather’s mysterious injury but then, just as fans were moving on, Heather said fineeee I’ll tell you. In the Season 4 finale, she claimed that her former friend turned inmate, Jen Shah, had been the cause of the black eye. However, she did not go into detail about the incident. Guess we have to wait until part III of the reunion.
When Heather Threw a Mormon-Themed Book Party
In Season 4, Heather threw a Mormon-themed get-together to celebrate the release of her book “Bad Mormon,” which was pretty iconic. The image of the ladies wearing bonnets and making homemade butter while hashing out their drama still has us laughing. Also, Heather suggesting the girls play the shady game “Whose on your wagon?” was pure genius. Thank you for making perfect television girl!
When She Was on the Prowl at Sundance
In the first few seasons of RHOSLC, Heather was the only single girl in the group, which meant she had to find clever ways to meet eligible bachelors. In Season 1, she decided Sundance Film Festival was the perfect place to get her flirt on given that the men were only in town for a short amount of time. Like she said, “I’m always looking for sex but I am not looking for love.” Icon.
It was a joy to watch Heather hit on men at the festival and we were genuinely thankful that cameras were there to capture the whole ordeal.
When She Revealed the Truth About Monica
Heather revealing that fellow housewife, Monica Garcia, was in fact the mastermind behind the infamous Instagram account Reality Von Tease has to be her most iconic moment. She milked that drama to the very last drop and we bow down to her for that. From gathering the OG ladies on the beach (serious Big Little Lies vibes) to calling Monica a troll, we couldn’t look away. Give her an Oscar and a Golden Globe!!!
Say it with me, “RECEIPTS, PROOF, TIMELINE, SCREENSHOTS, F***ING EVERYTHING.”
Heather has given us so many iconic moments over the years and we hope that trend continues. The show would be nothing without miss Beauty Lab and Laser. If she ever leaves RHOSLC, we are changing the channel, sorry!
