They have had a long-running animosity on and off camera.
The “Real Housewives of Orange County” star Heather Dubrow is defending her husband, Dr. Terry Dubrow, and his alleged relationship with his office assistant against recent accusations made by former co-star Kelly Dodd.

The real housewife discussed the rumor with actress Becca Tobin on a recent episode of her podcast “Heather Dubrow’s World,” saying, “There’s a rumor online right now that Terry was like banging his assistant for years.”
“It’s not true. I’m not going to give it any weight or any life because it’s stupid. But, the point is this: For me, cheating is like the one, it was my one hard no.”
“I was like, ‘No matter what happens in our lives, just know, I can’t recover from that,” she added.

“I can handle messing up and doing stupid things, but when, I’ve had a handful of incidences in my life where a couple people have been so incredibly disloyal that… And it’s not many but it’s a couple and it just, I will never get over it.”
Dodd recently used Instagram to propagate rumors about Heather’s husband’s supposed affairs, commenting on a photo of Heather with Shannon Beador uploaded on the Reality Blurb page.
“Don’t throw stones at glass houses [Heather Dubrow]!! Everyone in Newport Beach knows Terry was banging his office assistant!! (Allegedly),” the former housewife wrote.

She even stated that she did not want to be sued by the plastic surgeon, noting, “Don’t want to get sued a [third] time!! It’s common knowledge here ask anyone! Hypocrite.”
The allegation gained traction on social media since the pair appears to be inseparable these days, making the accusation difficult to believe. They just earned their own spin-off, in which they give marriage advise to troubled couples, according to Reality Tea.
