Mary Cosby, a prominent figure from “The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City,” is facing serious allegations regarding her role in a controversial church, which she runs with her husband, Robert Cosby Sr.. A new three-part docuseries titled “The Cult of The Real Housewife,” set to premiere on January 1, 2024, on TLC, investigates claims that Faith Temple Pentecostal Church operates more like a cult than a religious organization.
