Heather Dubrow is shutting down speculation about her marriage.
The Real Housewives of Orange County star addressed rumors that her husband, plastic surgeon Dr. Terry Dubrow, might be gay during a recent appearance on iHeartRadio’s Between Us podcast, calling the gossip ridiculous.
“It’s just so stupid,” Heather said. “Why would we hide that? Why would we live a lie like that? What would we be showing our kids?”
Heather, 56, and Terry, 67, have been married since 1999 and share four children, many of whom identify as LGBTQ+.
Terry chimed in, saying, “If I’m gay in this long-term relationship, please feel bad for me because I’m not living my true life.” He added with a laugh, “If I were gay, I’d be really happy about it.”
While shutting down the gossip, Heather is also facing fresh whispers about her future on RHOC. Social media has been buzzing with claims that she may have exited the show ahead of season 20, though nothing has been confirmed.
“The streets are talking and it seems like Heather Dubrow has quit ahead of S20 of The Real Housewives of Orange County!!!” the Mary Cosby Fan Page (MCFP) wrote, “Let’s hope the streets are wrong!”
