‘RHOSLC’ Star Gracefully Shuts Down Transgender Rumors
Bravo fans have been waiting on pins and needles for info on the new Housewives franchise. The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City was announced during 2019’s BravoCon fan convention. After weeks of dropping hints, the network FINALLY dropped the trailer a few days ago. The show won’t premiere until November, though. So, fans are taking to social media to get familiar with the stars.
RHOSLC will star six women who live in Salt Lake City. Lisa Barlow, Mary Cosby, Heather Gay, Meredith Marks, Whitney Rose and Jen Shah are the newest Housewives. The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City is not even on the air yet. But some fans already ‘stan’ Bravo newcomer Heather Gay.
Fan Asks RHOSLC Star to Reveal Transition Details… But Heather Gay Isn’t Trans
In the trailer and official cast photo, RHOSLC star Heather Guy has a somewhat masculine appearance. As a result, one fan had the impression that Heather was transgender. The fan asked Heather about her transition from male to female.
The fan wasn’t asking in a rude way at all, though some may consider the question itself rude. They wrote that Heather was “going to inspire” people with her story. There’s just one problem. Heather isn’t transgender.
Heather Gay Touted By Fans For Classy Response
It can’t be easy getting comments and questions about your appearance. Particularly if the questions come with the implication that you look manly. However, the RHOSLC star handled the question with grace and class.
She earned herself many fans on social media for her answer. Heather wrote that while she is an “advocate for the transgender community,” she is not trans herself. She clarified that she didn’t find the question insulting.
Heather then encouraged the fan and her followers to “bring as much awareness as possible” to the transgender and LGBTQ communities.
Twitter user @NineDaves retweeted a screenshot of the exchange. They wrote that they are “already stanning” the RHOSLC star. Many fans replied to the tweet by praising Heather for how she handled the “troll.” One fan asked why people are being mean to the RHOSLC star already.
