‘The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City’ Season 7 Filming Begins
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the upcoming season of RHOSLC was scheduled to begin production last week. However, in light of the tragic death of Cosby’s son, filming was put on pause.
The outlet has now confirmed that filming has resumed. Although initially slated to be part of Season 7, Cosby isn’t currently filming the Bravo show in the wake of her son’s death.
While Cosby has not addressed her future on RHOSLC, an insider told Us Weekly that she is expected to return to filming Season 7 at some point. However, considering the tragedy she suffered, everything is up in the air right now.
Bravo has not confirmed the cast for the new season of the Real Housewives show. Lisa Barlow, Meredith Marks, Whitney Rose, Heather Gay, Bronwyn Newport, Angie Katsanevas, Britani Bateman, and Cosby were all featured on Season 6, which wrapped its Bravo run in January with a three-part reunion.
The next season of RHOSLC is expected to premiere on Bravo in the fall, like the previous seasons.
