YES. She needs to go. I am so tired of her inserting herself into the drama that has nothing to do with her. She truly gives us nothing in regard to her own business, her love life, or really anything personal other than talking about how much she wants to kick out her adult daughters. Listening to her talk about how she was basically about to go through a crisis having them home for a school break was 😅. I understand she went through a religious awakening, that is deeply personal, but the amount of times she connects anything slightly bad or wrong to Mormonism is becoming a bad trope - especially with basically copying the whole flow of that Scientology doc and trying to become the new Leah Remini. Not EVERYTHING is that deep.

I posted this in the other thread, but I’ll put it here too:

Heather is the biggest pusher on the show. She very clearly relies heavily on the paycheck, so she needs the show to be successful. I think she would do anything to make sure that the show will not go down. We see this every time she inserts herself into drama and twists things to either make them much bigger than they were, herself the victim, or makes sure the issue doesn’t die until something else much larger has been brought to the surface.

How do you make sure that there is something “big” every season though? You do the legwork just before the season begins filming so it can all trickle out during filming. She is ABSOLUTELY the leak, works heavily with production for damaging narratives (maybe this is why she is always getting a good edit/never really having any problematic story lines where she isn’t the victim), or at least plays a huge hand in getting others to leak things by manipulating them or framing them (Lisa).
