3 major takeaways from Real Housewives of Salt Lake City season 5 trailer

1) New housewife Bronwyn Newport

Real Housewives of Salt Lake City trailer shows the debut of new housewife Bronwyn Newport who is a friend of Barlow. Bronwyn makes her entry in a white dress with a big heart-shaped red overcoat, instantly getting everyone's attention.

Barlow introduces her friend Bronwyn to all the cast members and everyone seems to be excited at the start. But when a new housewife joins a gang, drama is inevitable.

In the trailer, one cast member can be heard saying, Bronwyn's got everything a person wants from their friend. She is funny, witty, and has the best wardrobe to show off her great fashion sense. However, Heather says that Bronwyn is not here to make friends and she doesn't trust her.

Heather confronts her to get her things in order because she has been telling different stories to everyone. To this Bronwyn says if she doesn't want her support she doesn't have to take it, leaving Heather stunned.

"You're gonna need to get your words in order with all of this group because you have been telling everybody a different story," Heather says.

2) Two new RHOSLC season 5 friends

Besides Bronwyn Newport as the new housewife, Real Housewives of Salt Lake City season 5 will introduce two new "friends of". Britani Bateman and Meili Workman will be joining in this season.

Gay introduces Bateman to the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City gang as her friend but she doesn't get a warm welcome from the group. As described by her Bravo bio, she is a Utah native and a practicing Mormon.

Bateman has multiple things going on for her in terms of her career. She is an actress, an accolade singer, and a real estate developer. She also is in an on-again, off-again relationship.

Workman, a friend of Rose, is from California. She is a model and a mother of four. While growing up she moved to Utah to be closer to church but in the end, realized that this was not the thing for her.

3) Conflict between Katsanevas and Barlow

Another thing that the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City season 5 trailer teases is the conflict between Katsanevas and Barlow. Katsanevas bashes Barlow for letting her son game until 2 in the morning.

This angers Barlow and while having a conversation with Gay, she says that she is a great mom and Katsanevas should doubt her parenting. Later, Barlow lets Katsanevas know that she hasn't been a good friend to her lately. Katsanevas fires back saying Barlow hasn't been a good friend to her as well.
