There’s a new housewife in town, and she’s not afraid to make a statement. Bronwyn Newport made her Bravo debut in the season 5 premiere of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. But who is Bronwyn? Let’s get to know the newest RHOSLC cast member. 

Bronwyn Newport is a friend of Lisa Barlow

Bronwyn’s connection to RHOSLC comes courtesy of Lisa Barlow. She a fan of “over-the-top fashion” and has “sense of humor as sharp as the diamonds she wears,” according to a Bravo press release. She “makes a splash with the ladies with her outrageous, fabulous and confrontational style.”

Bronwyn’s Instagram account (200K+ followers), offers more insight into this Salt Lake City housewife. In her bio, she describes herself as a “Mom, doggie mom, lover of fashion, pandas, drag, Dr. Pepper and the NBA. Champion for inclusion and acceptance for all.” She’s also an “aspiring surfer.”

Bronwyn has been married for eight years to her husband, Todd Bradley, who is 26 her senior. Before getting hitched, Bronwyn was a single mom to her daughter, Gwen, and she worked in finance. Her husband also has two adult kids from his first marriage. He’s worked in tech and business, including serving as the CEO of Palm and in executive positions at Hewlett-Packard. 

Bronwyn and Todd’s glam wedding took place in San Francisco in 2016. A pre-wedding celebration at Oracle Park (home of the San Francisco Giants) featured a massive fireworks display and performances by Natasha Bedingfield and the Goo Goo Dolls.

Bronwyn is a fashion influencer and liberal activist 

According to Bravo, Bronwyn is a fashion influencer and Broadway producer (she and her husband invested in the recent revival of Cabaret), as well as a liberal political activist. Her social media features highlights from her travels to Paris, Vienna, New York, Cabo, and other destinations.

So far, Bronwyn hasn’t shared much about her past on RHOSLC, but she did open up a few months ago about her journey to becoming a U.S. citizen. 

“Oooookay, so, I’m actually not American, yet. I wasn’t born in the US. I moved here from Brazil when I was almost a year old and then again lived outside the US, in Europe, during elementary school,” she wrote in a May 31 Instagram post. “A few years back I gave up my Brazilian citizenship and passport (keeping only my UK) and submitted my application, only for it to stall during Covid shutdowns! I’m now finally so close to becoming a citizen of the USA! And incredibly excited about getting to vote hopefully in my first elections this year!”  

The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 5 airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo. Episodes stream the next day on Peacock.
