The Real Housewives franchise heads to the slopes with the new series The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, which launches with a supersized premiere on Wednesday, November 11 from 10:00 - 11:15 pm Et/Pt.
The series takes viewers to Salt Lake City within an exclusive social circle made up of six successful women who've created their own paradise filled with luxury homes, shopping sprees and multi-million-dollar businesses.
It follows the elite and unconventional lives of Lisa Barlow, Mary Cosby, Heather Gay, Meredith Marks, Whitney Rose, and Jen Shah, as they navigate a society fueled by religion, beauty, wealth and perfection.
"The Mormon church is undeniably engrained in the culture of Salt Lake City, but these women represent a spectrum of religious beliefs ranging from Mormon, Islamic, Jewish and Pentecostal. Here perfection is not an aspiration, it's a mandate," reads a statement from Bravo.
" With a deep-rooted history, these women share a special bond,...

Bravo revealed the cast of its upcoming “Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” — and it’s the most diverse in the franchise history, including the first housewife of Polynesian heritage.
The six women featured are Lisa Barlow, Mary Cosby, Heather Gay, Meredith Marks, Whitney Rose and Jen Shah. The show premieres Nov. 11.
Cosby is Black, while Shah is of Polynesian heritage. They come from different religious backgrounds as well: Cosby is Pentecostal, Barlow is “Jewish by heritage and Mormon by choice,” and Marks is Jewish. Rose and Shah have left the Mormon church, with Shah converting to Islam.
The other cities’ casts are mostly homogenous.
In 12 seasons, “New York” has only featured one woman of color: Jules Wainstein, whose mother is Japanese and father Ashkenazi Jew. Wainstein lasted one season.
The “Atlanta” cast has been predominantly Black after the departure of original housewife Kim Zolciak, who is white. “Potomac” is also predominantly Black.
