Fancy Pants appeared on the June 28 episode of [Out & About](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jE75qclbkeA&t=1601s), where she dished on a surprising RHOC feud involving one of her kids. She also dubbed her arch nemesis Kelly Dodd ***"irrelevant." *** As RHOC fans know, Heather and her husband, [Terry Dubrow](https://allabouttrh.com/2022/10/24/heather-and-terry-dubrow-sell-their-oc-mansion-for-55-million-purchase-new-la-penthouse-plus-heather-hints-about-joining-rhobh/), share four children: 19-year-old twins Max and Nick, 16-year-old daughter Kat, and 12-year-old son Ace. Three of their children have come out as gay or bisexual in recent years. Heather said: ***“It’s like, your family’s your family. Your kids are your kids. There was no big revelation. I didn’t need time to process [the news.] When you’re a parent, you want your kids to have an easy, great life.”*** ***“When you have a child that is outside of what society calls the norm, whatever that is … you worry for your kid. You worry that they are going to have a tough time, and so as a parent, that is what I worry about. Are they gonna be safe? Are they gonna be loved? Are they gonna be taken care of?”*** she continued. The former actress then revealed that something goes down during season 17 of RHOC that involves one or more of her children and a co-star. *** “There was an incident with a cast member on our show that I’m going to have to deal with eventually. That was something that was just outrageous,”*** she confessed. Speaking of co-stars having drama with her children, Heather addressed the criticism she received about her "***announcement"*** over her son [Ace's transition](https://allabouttrh.com/2023/03/06/bethenny-frankels-daughter-brynn-hangs-out-with-heather-dubrows-son-ace-see-their-tiktok-and-their-moms-reactions/). Heather insists she simply ***“acknowledged [her] child because other people wanted to talk about him.”*** ***“We were really trying to just like have him have a safe space to be who he is and maybe now leave him alone. It wasn’t announced on the show, and it’s not discussed,”*** she explained. Former RHOC star [Kelly Dodd](https://allabouttrh.com/category/the-real-housewives-of-orange-county/kelly-meza-dodd/) has been extremely outspoken about Heather and her children. On the Monday, March 6 episode of their *[Daily Smash](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgtAZyJhIuY)* podcast, Kelly and her husband,[Rick Leventhal](https://allabouttrh.com/2023/01/11/rhoc-alum-kelly-dodds-husband-rick-leventhal-is-lucky-to-be-alive-after-horrifying-car-accident/), slammed the Dubrows, calling them ***“famewhores” ***who are engaging in ***“child abuse” ***after they[announced their youngest child is transgender](https://allabouttrh.com/2023/03/07/kelly-dodd-slams-heather-and-terry-dubrow-after-they-announce-their-youngest-son-is-transgender-mocks-aces-name-says-its-child-abuse-and-that-the-dubrows-are-fame-hungry/) and now goes by the name Ace. Then in April, Kelly made [transphobic comments](https://allabouttrh.com/2023/04/14/rhoc-alum-kelly-dodd-makes-transphobic-comment-about-heather-dubrow-and-her-children/) about Heather and her kids. ![Kelly Dodd goes after Heather Dubrow and kids in Instagram post ](https://allabouttrh.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/kelly-dodd-heather-dubrow-transphobic-scaled.jpeg)Kelly Dodd slams Heather Dubrow and her kids When it comes to Kelly's criticism, Heather says she isn't concerned with her former co-star's ***"irrelevant"*** opinions. However, will not stand for Kelly going after her children in any shape or form. ***“People who are irrelevant are irrelevant, so I wouldn’t waste five seconds worrying about someone that makes no difference in the world. I would also say that people that make a living by being hatemongers, that’s their own evil karma that will come back, and I have no time for that. What I will say is that with my family and my kids, yes, I’m fiercely protective. And yeah. Don’t come after my children,”*** Heather stated. Kelly caught wind of Heather's comments after *[Reality Blurb](https://realityblurb.com/)* reported them. Kelly responded to Heather's comments in a post on her Instagram page. ***"If I'm irrelevant, why is Heather talking about me?? And for the record, I haven't said anything bad about her kids, just about her and what bad parent she is, outing her youngest at 12 years old and then claiming hse's creating a safe space? Ridiculous. She's trying to capitalize on their sexuality, and it's disgusting,"*** Kelly wrote. ![Kelly Dodd claps back at Heather Dubrow calling her "irrelevant"](https://allabouttrh.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/Screen-Shot-2023-07-02-at-3.36.03-PM-1187x1200.png)Kelly vs. Heather *The Real Housewives of Orange County* airs on Wednesdays at 8 on Bravo. ## Thoughts on this all?
