'I don't think she hit her head'

During Wednesday’s episode of 'Watch What Happens Live', guest Lala Kent revealed that she believes Heather got hurt by her co-star Jen Shah. During the show, the 'Vanderpump Rules' star admitted, "I think it’s from a cast member," before Cohen added, "From Jen Shah? I do too. I don't think she hit her head on a cabinet and got scratches on her arm." Moreover, Andy Cohen also tried to dig into the incident to know the truth. He shared that Bravo did conduct a probe into Gay’s injury. However, they didn’t find anything, and there was no additional footage. Amid all speculations, the 'Real Housewives of Salt Lake City' star Whitney Rose said during her confessional, "I would think it was Jen." She also shared her theory of the incident saying, "What if Heather ticked off Jen, and Jen hit her? Does she think this is gonna be bad for her trial?"

'I blacked out'

Heather Gay debuted the infamous black eye during a cast trip to San Diego in Season 3 of the 'RHOSLC', however, she continuously maintained since then that she had no idea how she got her black eye, just saying, "I blacked out." However, during Part 1 of the 'Real Housewives of Salt Lake City' reunion, she claimed, "I don’t know how it happened." The 'Bad Mormom' author went on to say, "I woke up terrified. I had my phone plugged in, I was in pajamas." Gay further explained that she was "scared" the rest of the 'RHOSLC' cast would see it as an opportunity to rewrite the narrative if they knew she didn’t recall what occurred. She also shared during the reunion that when production came into her room, she told them that she has no memory of the incident. She continued, "And then it spun out of control after that, and I take full responsibility, and I’m really sorry. It’s terrifying."

Meanwhile, when the incident happened, Heather Gay seems to be baffled and contradicted her own statement by saying she did remember what happened but would rather have the attacker come forward. Heather's statement left the cast and viewers of the show confused. However, Heather further made things more suspicious and confusing revealing that she immediately texted Shah, who agreed to help her come up with "a good cover story." While explaining what happened at that time, Heather recalled, "I don't wanna get anyone in trouble, Jen." She added, "So that's why I need you to help me figure out if someone wants to talk about what really happened last night." Jen Shah and Heather Gay seemingly tried to keep silent about the incident, meanwhile, their co-star Whitney Rose, who previously denied attacking the mom of three, revealed that she thinks Shah had something to do with the injury.

While confusion and blaming continue at the moment, Shah is set to turn herself in on Friday to begin her six-and-a-half-year prison sentence for running a nationwide telemarketing scheme that specifically targeted the elderly.

A premiere date for 'Real Housewives of Salt Lake City' Season 4 is yet to be announced.
