Real Housewives Of Salt Lake City star and former Mormon Heather Gay reveals her shock sex quest in Australia and hits back at critics of her Ozempic use

Real Housewives Of Salt Lake City star Heather Gay is not wasting any time since touching down in Sydney, telling Daily Mail Australia finding a ‘hot Aussie tradie’ is at the top of her list while visiting Down Under.

During her first ever visit to Australia to promote season five of the hit reality show, the self-confessed ‘bad Mormon’ says she hopes to have a casual fling with an local tradesman.

‘There have been nods to casual flings I’ve have over the last five seasons of the show – but I’m single and am looking for a hot Aussie tradie while in town,’ she said.

‘Age is really irrelevant to me – I just want to have a good time because I’m good time girl.

‘All I am really after is a big, buff shorty.’

The mother-of-three, 50, says she’s lapped up life after divorcing her husband of 11-years in 2014 and breaking away from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

The popular reality star grew up in a devout Mormon family and is now estranged from many of her family members who are still active in the church.

She attended the religious Brigham Young University and served as a missionary volunteer representative in France, before marrying into Mormon royalty.

She’s risen to popularity as a relatable, down-to-earth housewife from the international franchise.

Last year, Heather revealed she had been taking diabetic drug Ozempic and lost 25 pounds – even praising the wonders of modern medicine.

‘I have not had any bad side effects – I have not s**t my pants at a party,’ she laughed.

‘You can be body positive and want to lose weight and try anything and anything to do it and it is changing a lot of lives.

‘I admit that I used it because it worked and I feel fantastic,’ she said.

‘But each their own on whether they want to publicly share their weight loss journey.’

A number of Housewives across the international franchise have credited their weight loss to the hugely popular drug – a medication originally developed to treat type two diabetes.

Last November, the mom-of-three also opened up about how she felt about her daughters and today’s beauty standards.

At the time, she had lost just five pounds from the medication.

‘I think that we put so much pressure on ourselves and it’s hard,’ Gay told People last year.

‘And I have three daughters that I love and I don’t want them to have my genetics or have to struggle with society’s standards of beauty,’ she continued.

‘I just wish that there was a solution for all of us. But I’m feeling like I’m coming into my own a little bit and I think the glow up might be a little bit from that, too.

‘But I’ll give credit to all the medical intervention. It’s my business.’

Stream Season 5 of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City only on Hayu, the same day as the USA. Brand new episodes are released every Thursday.
