As a wise man once said love is love is love is love is love is love is love is love. But nothing trumps a mother’s love for her kids—just ask Heather Dubrow.
As a parent, her main role is “to support them and defend them and take care of them and guide them,” The Real Housewives of Orange County star explained in an exclusive interview with E! News. “So whoever your children are and however they identify, that’s your job: Love them, protect them, take care of them.”
In the years since daughter Max, 20, came out as bisexual, daughter Kat, 17, announced to the family that she’s gay and son Ace, 13, revealed he’s transgender, Heather and her husband, Botched doctor Terry Dubrow have done just that.
“But the most important lesson I can give to a parent of an LGBTQ+ child, or any child, is to listen,” stressed Heather, also mom to 20-year-old Nick, “because people just want to be heard.”
