The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City might be a new franchise on Bravo, but the drama with the ladies in the group runs deep.

The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City started off the second episode with Jen Shah still upset that Mary Cosby said she smelled like a hospital after her aunt got both of her legs amputated…in a hospital.  Meanwhile, Mary is just lingering around the rented chateau looking like a lettuce wrap in white leggings. There’s a lot going on here, so strap into your ski boots and get yourself a glass of Vida Tequila while we jump into it all.

Mary seems to be suffering from a made-up trauma from when she had her “odor glands” removed.  According to Bravo’s Daily Dish, Mary has an autoimmune disease that was attacking her odor glands, but that is TBD.  Who enjoys hospitals?  Who gets their odor glands removed?  Who pretends to run a church but actually runs a cult?  Well, that one is probably more frequent than we think.

On the other side of the room, Lisa Barlow was upset that Whitney Rose said her gifted bartenders got wasted at the vow renewal.  In retaliation, Lisa is now telling people that Whitney is a swinger.  There seems to be footage of the bartenders but they didn’t appear wasted, but the whispers about Whitney being a swinger probably didn’t start with Lisa.  The Mormon faith is all about polyamory, right?

Meredith Marks went out to dinner with her husband, Seth, not long after he had their son, Brooks, set up a romantic evening for her while he was out of town.  Seth got right to business when he asked who Meredith told that they were separated.  Based on her reaction, she might have been trying to keep that tidbit of information off-camera.  The whole long-distance-rose-petal-birthday thing makes a lot of sense now.

Heather Gay was just focused on herself and shopping to look fabulous on the slopes.  She’s still mad that Lisa pretended she didn’t know her, but she stood her ground at dinner when Lisa asked if her thumbs up was really a f*** you.  Heather confirmed the innocuous 👍 thumbs-up emoji was, in fact, a f*** you.

Overall, the drama between the ladies is obviously off to a running start.  These ladies are well-connected, rich, dramatic, and trying to make a name for themselves, which always results in over-the-top antics.  It might be snowing in Salt Lake City, but the drama is as hot as ever!

The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City is on Bravo every Wednesday at 10 PM.
