Heather Dubrow revealed she “lit [Gina Kirschenheiter] up” on the phone after she shared on Watch What Happens Live that Heather sent information about Katie Ginella’s custody situation to Emily Simpson (who exposed it on the Real Housewives of Orange County reunion). Heather also named co-stars who pass around stories, and she seemingly hinted at “irrefutable proof” against Katie.
Earlier this season, Tamra Judge told Gretchen Rossi that Katie was claiming Gretchen accused Tamra of ‘roofieing’ her. Gretchen chose to believe her friend Katie, who denied it. But rumors are swirling that Katie later had a falling out with Gretchen and Jennifer Pedranti.
On Virtual Reali-Tea, Heather shared how she reacted to Gina’s interview.
“I called her,” said Heather. “She didn’t answer … She saw. I texted her, and she called me the next day. She did apologize. But here’s the thing, which is really important to understand. At that period of time, between the end of the season and the reunion, a lot of stories came out about Katie … And we were all sending them to each other. So me to Emily, Emily to Gina, Gina to Shannon [Beador], Shannon to me, Tamra to whoever.”
Heather said stories were also passed around after “Shannon’s DUI,” and the “alleged FBI stuff” over Ryan Boyajian.
“Trust me, they all pass our stories around to each other,” said Heather. “But I really was upset because it made it sound like I was researching [Katie], and I have never done that. I do not like that. I do not subscribe to that. It was just stuff that was out in articles that were posted.”
Heather said she “lit [Gina] up” on the phone after the interview, but Heather “apologized” for it later.
As for the drama with Katie, Heather was asked when Gretchen seemingly started to believe Tamra. “Well, you gotta watch the next few episodes,” she said.
The host then asked what Heather thinks of Katie’s falling out with Gretchen and Jennifer.
“I think, you know, you stand up for your friends and you believe in them — until you’re faced with irrefutable proof,” she answered.
