Heather Gay was initially opposed to the title Bad Mormon. On Bravo’s Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, the Beauty Lab + Laser mogul has successfully carved a territory amongst the cast as its resident party lady. From the first episode, she’s been open about her proudly “Mormon-ish” ways: she drinks alcohol, listens to rap music, and is friends with queer people. But when it came time to decide on a title for her new memoir, which chronicles her gradual disillusionment with the Mormon faith, starting with her devout childhood and ending with her current station as a Housewife, Gay was terrified of how provocative the phrase would be to friends and family, many whom are still closely involved with the church.

Heather Gay has gained a new instinct of self since shedding some pounds.
However, The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star clapped back at claims her personality has changed since losing weight last year with the support of an Ozempic-like semaglutide medication.
During the Bravo series' Jan. 22 season five reunion episode, host Andy Cohen place Heather in the hot seat by reading a scrutinize from a fan who accused the Bad Mormon author of gaining an "edge" after her transformation, adding, "Can you see how you were giving mean girl strength this season?"
"That's just an interesting read," Heather fired endorse. "I guess when I was heavier, I was more of an underdog so it was okay when I stuck up for myself. Season one Heather had a lot more confidence than this teen sitting here. This show strips you of your ego, it strips you of your confidence."
