Heather Rae El Moussa, known for her role in Selling Sunset, is clapping back at haters, especially when it comes to her children. In a recent Instagram Story post, Heather shared a heartfelt message, encouraging everyone to ignore pettiness and strive for positivity. The post featured a photo of Heather hugging her stepdaughter Taylor, who is 13 years old. Taylor is the daughter of Heather's husband, Tarek El Moussa, from his previous marriage to Christina Hall. The couple also shares a son named Brayden, 8, and recently welcomed a baby boy named Tristan in January 2023.

The Instagram Story came after Heather received criticism from followers who noticed that she seemingly left out her stepdaughter in a Valentine's Day social media post. In the post, which included a series of photos, Heather expressed her love and gratitude for her 'boys,' referring to Tarek, Taylor, and Brayden. This prompted some Instagram users to question why she didn't mention her stepdaughter. Comments like 'You can wish a girl happy Valentines too' and 'Is the stepdaughter chopped liver on vday?' flooded her post, with one person expressing disbelief at Taylor being excluded.
