Soon, they had Kat, then their 11-year-old twins. In a recent interview with People, Heather explained that all four of her children are “different genders, different sexualities, and all at interesting places in their lives, figuring out who they are and where they belong as humans.” The couple’s kids are also navigating their lives in front of the cameras.

I am so grateful to Evolution Media, Bravo, and the whole NBCU family for all of the incredible experiences and the opportunities RHOC has afforded me and my family.” Heather added, “However, at this point in my life, I have decided to go in another direction and do what’s best for my family and career,” she continued. “Should I change my mind, I thank Andy Cohen, Evolution, and Bravo for telling me that the door is always open.” Soon, Bravo decided to open their door for the Sequestered star. In Season 11, she reclaimed her orange following a five-year hiatus. During her Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen appearance about RHOC, Andy applauded Heather’s parenting style. The actor said she wishes her and Terry’s support of their children could be “normalized” more frequently.
