‘It’s a tough question,’ Heather said when asked if she would return to RHOC. ‘Honestly, I would never say never.
‘You just don’t know what life is gonna throw your way or how circumstances change or what you feel like doing. I don’t even know what that set of circumstances would look like.’
Dubrow starred on the Bravo reality series for several seasons, joining in 2012 and departing season 11 in 2016. Her husband, a plastic surgeon, stars on Botched on E!.
After season 14 wrapped up around Christmas time last year, the franchise underwent a major cast shake-up with two veterans, Tamra and Vicki getting the boot.

‘I was surprised when Tamra was gone from the show this year,’ Heather explained. ‘I just think she is so content rich – and Vicki too – there is always something going on. They have given so much to the show. Added so much – but things need to evolve.’
‘Same with RHOBH. Things need to evolve,’ Heather continued.
DailyMail broke the news last year that the matriarch of the Beverly Hills franchise, Lisa Vanderpump, was leaving the show after a rough season with her castmates.
Surprised: Heather admitted that she was shocked when long time cast members Tamra Judge and Vicki Gunvalson were axed from the franchise at the end of season 14 after they had ‘given so much to the show’ (Pictured: (l-r) Gina KIrschenhelter, Kelly Dodd, Tamra Judge, Shannon Beador, Vicki Gunvalson, Emily Simpson)
‘People were worried when Vanderpump left that there would be a real problem,’ Heather explained. ‘
Lisa’s position in the cast was later filled with actress and TV host Garcelle Beauvais, as well as new ‘friend’ of the Housewives Sutton Stracke.
‘Garcelle is a friend of mine she was on my podcast the other day and we were talking about it and the show is doing better than ever. Sometimes the show just has to keep moving.’
Truth: Heather still runs in the same OC circles as many of her former castmates whom she says she has ‘no problems’ with but when asked who she wouldn’t want to see out and about, Heather answered – Kelly Dodd
Heather still runs in the same OC circles as many of her former castmates whom she says she has ‘no problems’ with, likening their shared experience on the show to a ‘sorority.’
However, when asked who she wouldn’t want to see out and about, Heather answered: Kelly Dodd.
‘Not because I don’t like her to be honest with you,’ she explained.
Dubrow and Dodd notoriously butted heads on the show and beyond but Heather said that they also ‘shared a lot of really fun moments.’

She went on to compliment Dodd as a ‘really good mom’ but admitted she feels that Kelly is too much of a live wire for her.
‘The reason I picked her is because I never know what I am going to get when I see her,’ Heather explained.
‘Last year she posted some things about me that were dumb and I laughed it wasn’t a big deal – I just never know what I am going to get when I see her.’
Heather was referring to videos that Kelly filmed of her outside of their local gym in 2018, which Kelly posted on social media.
