According to The Hollywood Reporter, production for season 7 of "Real Housewives of Salt Lake City" has now resumed, one week after cast member Mary Cosby's son, Robert Jr., was found dead of an apparent drug overdose.
Per the outlet, Cosby is currently not filming with the rest of the cast, and Bravo is said to be following her lead regarding when she is ready to return.
The sixth season of the show previously wrapped up in early February with the conclusion of the three-part reunion. "RHOSLC" generally films throughout the spring and summer, and typically airs during the fall season in September or October.
It Was Previously Reported That Cosby Will Return To The Show For Its Upcoming Season

Per TMZ, sources close to "RHOSLC" previously shared that Cosby will return to the popular reality series amid her grief as a way to maintain a sense of structure.
The outlet also reported that Cosby will commence filming at her own pace, and there is no pressure on her from production concerning the matter.
Two days after her son's death, on February 25, production on "RHOSLC" was briefly delayed following Robert Jr.'s tragic death, according to the outlet.
Per inside sources connected to the show, "RHOSLC" was set to begin shooting mere days after the 23-year-old's death, but production was officially postponed.
Additionally, sources also told the outlet that the death will likely be a "major storyline" on the show, as the show's cast, Lisa Barlow, Meredith Marks, Angie Katsanavas, Heather Gay, Whitney Rose, and Bronwyn Newport, will likely react to the heartbreaking situation at some point during filming.
