Heather reveals the cover for ‘Bad Mormon’ in ‘RHOSLC’ Season 3 finale 

“Trials and Tribulations” focuses on the party Heather threw to reveal the cover of her book. The choir Heather formed earlier in season 3 also performed during the event.

Of course, Heather’s black eye comes up briefly in conversation, but how the black eye happened gets brushed under the rug. More than that, Lisa Barlow and some of the other housewives were a bit perplexed about the event, which wasn’t a book launch, but a cover reveal. Regardless, the night eventually became less about Heather’s book and more about the drama among the women this season. 

Heather Gay’s book ‘Bad Mormon’ comes out on Feb. 7 

Bad Mormon has yet to be available on bookstore shelves. The RHOSLC star’s memoir comes out on Feb. 7, 2023. According to the publisher Simon and Schuster, Heather’s 304-page book covers her departure from the Mormon Church and her “unforeseen success in business, television, and single motherhood.” 

“With writing that is beautiful, sad, funny, and true, Heather recounts the difficult discovery of the darkness and damage that often exists behind a picture-perfect life while examining the nuanced relationship between duty to self and duty to God,” the description continues. “Exposing secrets she once held sacred, Bad Mormon is an unfiltered look at the religion that broke her heart.”

Will there be another season of ‘Real Housewives of Salt Lake City’?
