Now, as some super emotional and “powerful” scenes between herself and her son, Robert Jr, air in season 5, Mary is set to go down in the Bravo history books.
The Real Housewives Of Salt Lake City hopped aboard the Bravo train later than many of the others in the franchise. Launching in 2020, Meredith Marks, Lisa Barlow, Heather Gay, and co have all had a relatively recent rise to reality TV fame. Despite only being on the Bravo show a short while, RHOSLC fans are “blown away,” and “in awe” of the season 5 scenes. We’re not crying, you’re crying.
