Mercedes “MJ” Javid fueled rumors claiming Heather Dubrow is leaving the cast of The Real Housewives of Orange County on Monday’s episode of Jeff Lewis‘ radio show.
After Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Crystal Kung Minkoff, 42, suggested that Vicki Gunvalson, 63, stole an orange from another cast member ahead of season 20, the 53-year-old Shahs of Sunset alum mentioned the report on Jeff’s series, claiming that the person in question was Heather, 56.
“It came out that the person that Crystal was talking about that’s leaving Orange County is Heather Dubrow,” MJ shared on the December 29 episode of SiriusXM’s Jeff Lewis Live.
“I wonder if she’s leaving by choice,” Jeff, 55, replied.
At that point, Reza Farahan, 52, mentioned the ongoing claims of Heather potentially joining the RHOBH cast.
“But I heard she’s also potentially joining the Beverly Hills cast,” he stated.
“That part I don’t believe. I don’t believe that,” MJ fired back as Jeff said he was “surprised they would get rid of [Heather].”
@just_bookin_around Crystal Kung Minkhoff started this little piece of gossip and it’s just floating around in the ether, nothing confirmed but a lot of assumptions. I wonder who MJ’s source is. Hopefully not Radar Online. (No offense, Radar) 🎧: Jeff Lewis Live, December 29 📸: Bravo TV #fyp #bravo #bravotv #peacock ♬ original sound – Just Bookin’ Around
Earlier this month, during an episode of her podcast, Humble Brag with Crystal and Cynthia, Crystal spoke of Vicki’s return to RHOC.
“Vicki got her orange. I have the tea: I know she took someone else’s orange,” she shared.
Weeks later, on Vicki’s My Friend, My Soulmate, My Podcast, Tamra Judge, 58, weighed in, admitting she immediately sent Crystal a DM in regard to her claim.
“I reached out, and I said, ‘Was it my orange?’ and she said, ‘No, it was not.’ She would not tell me who it was, but she says, ‘I just heard it’s somebody else’s,’” she revealed. “[Gretchen Rossi] doesn’t have an orange, not even a clementine. Heather? Do you think Heather’s going to Beverly Hills?”
“That would only make sense,” Vicki replied.
