Heather Dubrow shared more details concerning the allegation that she and her husband, Dr. Terry Dubrow, called paparazzi to stage photos of them at Disneyland to distract from his “cheating rumors” at the time. She also accused her castmates of “looking for me to trip.”

On the new season of Real Housewives of Orange County, Emily Simpson and Gina Kirschenheiter addressed how Heather said off camera that newcomer Carmella Garcia looks “trashy.” Yet, Heather later chose to hire Carmella as her realtor. The suggestion seemed to be that Heather makes calculated moves to serve her own interests.

“There was a whole storyline on the show that we had called the paparazzi and staged these Disneyland pictures,” said Heather on I’ve Never Said This Before. “We were at Disneyland because it was our daughter’s sweet 16. … So she’s 16. They’re with the guide. They’re off running around doing their thing. And Terry and I are at the bar because we had just sold our house for $55 million, the third-highest sale in Orange County history, this house that we built from the ground up that I designed every square inch of.”

“And we were having drinks going, ‘Are you kidding me? Can you, you think this is actually gonna happen?’ And we were gonna have to be out of the house in three weeks. It was like so crazy and funny and such stupid money for a house,” she continued. “And that was our day. And someone took pictures of us [in that moment], and they put them online, and this became this whole thing: ‘You call the paparazzi.'”

She claimed there were other photos in the same series of them looking “grumpy and weird.”

“But they chose these [photos that] look so silly, like I’m pointing, we’re talking, whatever. Looks like a Sears ad, whatever it was,” she said. “[I didn’t call them], but now I know lots of paparazzi. Because everywhere we go, if there’s a paparazzi there, they say hi, they tell me their name. So now we know everyone.”

At one point, Heather addressed the “cheating rumors.”

“I found it so hurtful that anyone would ever question my husband’s loyalty to me,” she said.

Later on, she claimed some of her co-stars are always “looking for me to trip.”

“Emily [said] to me, ‘You’re one of my best friends.’ Well, if I’m one of your best friends, why are you picking at every single thing I say?” she asked. “That’s a them problem.”
