Receipts. Proof. Timeline. Screenshots.
Jen Shah’s former designer Koa Johnson – who helped run the Reality Von Tease ‘troll’ page – revealed Heather Gay’s alleged DMs, suggesting she knew about Jen’s hot-mic recordings a month before the leak and was actively trying to use them against Jen. The recordings show Jen yelling at Koa and threatening to “beat the s**t out of” him.
On the season finale of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, Heather raised her gavel against Monica Garcia, who leaked the audio. But the following information suggests Heather’s secret involvement.
“[Heather] knew about these recordings before they were posted…” said Koa, via @nosmokenomore on Instagram, “and was willing to use them against Jen. And I have proof of that…”
He then dropped screenshots of his alleged message exchange with Heather.
“If anyone asks you why you don’t work with her or if she tries to blame you – a 2 second excerpt of that audio will vindicate,” Heather allegedly wrote.
The message was timestamped on February 1, 2021, which was one month before Reality Von Tease leaked the recordings and nine months before Monica ever contacted casting.
When Koa shared he was getting “threats,” Heather allegedly responded, “Ugh I’m so sorry. I’ll give them to Meredith she will know what to do.”

She allegedly told Koa to “make receipts” and have “documents” showing that Jen stole gowns Koa made for her.
“Can I play the audio for Meredith?” Heather allegedly asked. “You need to get ahead of this. Can I give the audio to bravo or?”
