Selling Sunset Star Slams Rude Fan Over Money

Heather Rae El Moussa staunchly defended herself after a fan accused her of not having to 'worry about money.'

During an Instagram Q&A this week, the 38-year-old star – – insisted that she's worked hard to reach millionaire status. Celebrity Net Worth reports that she's worth $3 million while StyleCaster has placed her at $15 million.

'How does it feel to never have to worry about money?' the question from one of her nearly three million followers read. 

She answered in a video, 'I think that's a very unfair, rude question, but I'm glad that you asked because I'm sure other people just assume things about me as well, and my husband.'

Heather, who married husband in 2021, added, 'I came from a working class family. We did not have a lot of money. My dad, especially, was very poor growing up.'

She explained, 'My dad was a truck driver – he worked his a** off. I never really saw my dad. He left at 5:30 in the morning, and would get home 8 o'clock at night to support our family.'

As for her mother, she said, 'My mom cut hair and raised us, and when she went back to work again, then she became a librarian at an elementary school to be around me more, and my sister.'

Turning the focus to her husband, the reality TV star shared: 'Tarek's family came from another country and started their lives here, and built everything fresh, from scratch. So we didn't come from money. 

She answered in a video, 'I think that's a very unfair, rude question, but I'm glad that you asked because I'm sure other people just assume things about me as well, and my husband'
