A trailer for the icy new season dropped on August 19, and fans can expect to see friendships betrayed, new alliances formed, conversations secretly recorded, and epic fashion worn.
Check out the trailer for Season 5 at the top of this post, and find out what all of the cast members are up to, per a press release for the show, by looking below.
Who is the cast for The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 5?
Heather Gay, Lisa Barlow, Meredith Marks, Angie Katsanevas, and Whitney Rose are all back for Season 5, and past 'Wife Mary Cosby is back in a full-time role for the first time since Season 2.
The returning ladies are joined in the cast by new 'Wife Bronwyn Newport. New friends Britani Bateman and Meili Workman will be brought into the mix as well.
Lisa Barlow
When the season begins, Lisa is in a "strong" place in her relationships with the other ladies, but things soon change. Lisa is on good terms with her former bestie, Meredith, but her friendship with Whitney is on the line when the PRISM jewelry co-founder refers to Lisa as a villain.
As a result, Lisa fights back and questions Whitney's business practices.
Lisa's bond with Angie is also in distress when the salon owner makes a pointed remark about Lisa's mothering style.
Mary Cosby
Mary and her 2003 Dom Perignon are back for RHOSLC Season 5! In a surprising turn of events, Mary is looking to rekindle her relationships with Whitney and Heather (aka Bad Weather), and her longstanding friendship with Meredith "is on thin ice as they struggle to see eye-to-eye."
After clashing a bit on Season 4, Mary and Angie also develop a friendship as well.
Heather Gay
This Bad Mormon author has become ride-or-die with Mormon castmate, Lisa. Heather is also looking to fully repair her relationship with her cousin, Whitney. Things are quickly souring between her and Mary when the two discuss body positivity.
Heather brings new friend Britani into the fold, but ultimately struggles to defend her pal when she "repeatedly puts her foot in her mouth."
Angie Katsanevas
After facing rumors in her marriage to Shawn Trujillo on Season 4, the couple is getting ready to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary.
Angie and Mary are the best of friends on Season 5, but her relationship with Lisa is on the line as the two debate who has been a better friend.
Meredith Marks
Meredith is celebrating her bat mitzvah on RHOSLC Season 5, which brings her even closer to her husband, Seth Marks.
The jewelry designer is in contention with Whitney as the two battle to create bath products. When Meredith repeats a rumor she heard about Whitney's business, the gloves come off.
Whitney Rose
Whitney is a snowflake holder in distress. The mom of two is at odds with multiple women, and, to make matters worse, negative rumors about her jewelry line are circulating through the group.
Her husband, Justin Rose, also gets involved in the drama with John Barlow as Lisa and Whitney clash.
Whitney brings friend Meili into the group, who becomes a topic of discussion when Lisa brings up Meili's shopping habits.
Bronwyn Newport
The new addition has a passion for fashion, art, and living the high life. The former Mormon was excommunicated from the church when she got pregnant while attending BYU.
After welcoming her daughter, Gwen, Bronwyn worked in finance. Along the way, she met her husband, Todd, who is 26 years older than her.
Though she's introduced to the group via Lisa, their friendship is put to the test when Bronwyn begins to question her loyalty and support.

Meili Workman
Meili is a married mother of four who also models. The new friend is originally from California, but she moved to Utah to become more involved in the LDS church. However, she later decided that the church was not for her.
Meili is linked to the RHOSLC group through her friendship with Whitney.
Britani Bateman
The Utah native is a practicing Mormon who is in a complicated on-and-off relationship. Britani works as a real estate developer, and she's also a singer and actress.
She's brought into the group through her friendship with Heather, but it doesn't take long for her to begin getting in some hot water with the other ladies.
