Tyna Edwards is no stranger to the Salt Lake City reality TV scene.

In fact, the Utah-based broker—who stars on Bravo's newest real estate series Sold on SLC—revealed she actually previously appeared on multiple episodes of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.

"It's so funny, I actually filmed a few episodes of Housewives a few years back," Tyna exclusively told E! News. "I know Lisa [Barlow], I know Whitney [Rose], I know Meredith [Marks]. I'm not super close with any of the other ladies though."

As for which scenes fans might recognize her from? Rewind to one of series alum Jen Shah's early soirees. 

"It was at Jen Shah's alien party," Tyna added, "and then also après ski."

Lisa even makes a cameo during the premiere of Sold on SLC, however Tyna wasn't exactly jealous of costar Sarah Martindale being tasked with showing the demanding Housewife million-dollar properties.

"I was like 'you take that on, Sarah,'" Tyne quipped. "'You go, girl!'"

Tyna also revealed why fans of other hit real estate shows are going to fall in love with the new series.

"I'm obsessed with Selling Sunset and Million Dollar Listing, so when they brought this project I was like, 'Oh my gosh, this is so cool!'" she recounted. "We're a little bit different whereas we're in Utah, we're not 100 percent a luxury brokerage. We're selling everything from $200,000 condos to multimillion-dollar homes. I think it'll be really fun for people to see that dynamic and that difference."

But viewers can definitely expect the same amount of workplace competition among the show's cast of agents.

"You've got the office drama, you've got the interpersonal relationships," Tyna added. "You've got dynamics changing."

Get a peek at the jaw-dropping real estate when Sold on SLC premieres tonight, Dec. 4, at 9 p.m. on Bravo immediately after a new Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. Episodes are available to stream next day on Peacock.

And keep reading to meet the whole SLC cast of brokers.

Jennifer Yeo

As founding broker at Presidio Real Estate and fellow competing super-agent, Jennifer Yeo has been hustling for the success of her company since its inception in 2011. With her “raise the bar” mantra at the forefront of her business, she values loyalty and fierce ambition when it comes to her team. While Jen’s doting husband Darin keeps her grounded at home, she finds herself caught in the middle of her agent’s personal drama at the brokerage. 

Kenny Sperry

Kenny Sperry is committed to his family, LDS faith and professional success above all else. At Presidio, he consistently pulls in some of the highest numbers for the brokerage and is ready to take a leap by representing more luxury listings. As a father of three and husband to wife Jessica, Kenny credits religion with pulling him through some struggles in his youth.

Tyna Edwards

Quick witted and unapologetically herself, Tyna Edwards prides herself on her talents for selling everything from starter homes to ultra high-end real estate. Tyna recently left the Mormon church and came out, and with her two daughters, purchased her dream home and invited her partner, BJ, to move from California to join their modern family.  Tyna has some close allies among her colleagues at Presidio but calls out a fellow agent for a damaging rumor that could threaten her business and standing with the Mormon community.   

Malaysia Fua

After leaving for a competing firm last year, Malaysia Fua learned the grass is not always greener and took a leap of faith in asking to return to Presidio. As a practicing Mormon 2.0 mom of four and wife to former NFL player Alani Fua, Malaysia works to strike a balance between her blossoming career, busy life at home, and a bustling social life. Initially on shaky ground upon her return, she hopes to regain Jen’s trust and get back into the fold with the other agents by bringing some fun, and fire, to the brokerage. 

Sarah Martindale

As a native Brazilian, Sarah Martindale brings the heat to Salt Lake City with her bold energy and vibrant personal style. At home, she’s a mom of two and wife to Chris, who happens to run Presidio’s biggest rival brokerage. With Chris at her side, Sarah frustrations boil over when her allegiances are called into question at work.

Matt Jones

With Jen as a mentor and close confidante, Matt Jones is determined to take his real estate career to the next level at Presidio. As a father of four with wife Nicole and a devout LDS church member, Matt strives for perfection while embracing competition. At the office, he finds himself caught up in the rumor mill while clashing with another agent.
