Bre Tiesi has opened up about her onscreen best friend potentially having a minimal role in the next season of "Selling Sunset."
From the moment she joined the women of The Oppenheim Group, Bre formed a connection with fellow real estate agent Heather Rae El Moussa that transcended beyond the screens.
Now that it has been reported that Heather might not be a frequent face on the top-selling show, the model's heart has not only been broken, but she has also expressed how devastating it is.
Bre Tiesi Is 'Devastated' Over Heather Rae El Moussa's Reduced Screen Time
Avid watchers of "Selling Sunset" began bracing themselves up for the possibility of Heather's limited appearance when she shared that she had not gotten a call back from anybody about her involvement in the series' seventh season. As the mother-of-one, who filmed a few scenes before going on maternity leave, stated in March:
"Season 7 is filming right now, but I've been off maternity leave, and I've been excited to get back to work, and so far, I have not been called back. It's been a little frustrating. So [I'm] not sure what's been going on."
Bre touched on the situation when she appeared on E! News, saying, "I absolutely adore Heather. I'm very sad to hear that she is not going to be as big a part," But, honestly, I don't know too much on it. They kinda keep us separate from all of that. But I am devastated to hear of that. We are really close."
Heather's future with the show has been a topic of interest among fans for quite some time, and it's understandable given her busy schedule, embracing motherhood with the arrival of her first child, Tristan, with her husband Tarek El Moussa, in January. The lovebirds also launched a new HGTV show called "The Flipping El Moussas" and a home line business named Home By Them.
Amid the news of her starting the HGTV series with her man last August, Brett Oppenheim, the President and Broker of Oppenheim Real Estate, touched on her future with "Selling Sunset." He spoke exclusively to E! News about the situation, claiming, "I think it's TBD. I think, for now, she's able to do both."
Even though his brother, Jason, similarly had no definitive answer on Heather's presence on the Netflix show, he did tell the outlet:
"I don't get involved in the futures of the agents. I know she's still going to be at The Oppenheim Group. I think that's with her and production and Netflix and all that. I just want her at the office. I hope she continues to film with us. I have learned long ago not to get involved in all that stuff."
The Doting Mothers Enjoyed A Double Date With Their Bundles Of Joy
Before the conversations surrounding Heather's uncertain future began, she and Tristan had gone on a fun date with Bre and her baby boy, Legendary, whom she shares with multihyphenate Nick Cannon. Per PEOPLE, Bre had taken to Instagram to share a heartwarming glimpse of their special get-together, playfully remarking in the caption, "lunch looks different these days."
In the picture the Los Angeles-born beauty posted, the two moms captured the essence of their newfound roles as moms, with her beaming alongside her precious bundle of joy and Heather pouting as she placed her hand on the handle of Tristan's stroller. As for the baby boys, Legendary peacefully sipped from a milk bottle as Tristan curiously observed his surroundings and his friend's feeding process.
The post immediately caught traction, with one fan gushing in the comment section, "Omg! Beautiful moms," and another admitting, "I was so ready to hate on Bre and she ends up being my favorite. Shame on me for my preconceived b.s.! Love her and her bestie."
"Yesss a realistic photo of moms getting "out" love this," a third person effused, as a fourth pointed out, "Have you noticed bre either was holding heather or guiding her when she was pregnant it was so beautiful." The update has also garnered nearly 300,000 likes since it was shared on May 31.
