HEATHER Rae El Moussa shot to fame as one of the glamorous real estate agents on Netflix’s Selling Sunset.
She announced on July 12, 2022, that she and her husband, Tarek El Moussa, are pregnant with their first child.
Who is Heather El Moussa?
Heather El Moussa, 34, is a reality star, realtor, and model who is best known for her role on the reality HGTV series Selling Sunset.
Before finding fame on TV, Heather was a model and got her start posing as Miss February in the 2010 Playboy issue.
Heather has said that modeling for the magazine is not something she regrets, nor has it harmed her career.
“It was an amazing experience,” Heather told Playboy in 2020. “I would never take it back. I believe everything happens for a reason. I really, truly do.

“If I hadn’t posed for Playboy, I wouldn’t have met the people who led me to where I am now.”
She said her time working for the outlet gave her the opportunity to become comfortable in front of crowds and a camera, which helped her while filming the reality show Selling Sunset.
Meeting fans as a Playmate prepped me for the fans I have now, from the show,” she told the outlet.
“I talk to everyone. I take photos with everyone. It has changed my life.”

After leaving Playboy, Heather branched off into real estate, something she said was a natural next step after the contact she’d made while working for the magazine.
“I studied my ass off, I passed the test, and then within my first three months of doing real estate, I sold a $7.2 million house and a $1.5 million condo,” she said.
In 2014, Heather joined the Oppenheim Group, a real estate company that focuses on the Los Angeles area, including the Sunset Strip, Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Bel Air, and Malibu.
Heather has also had small acting roles in The Internship, Love in the Time of Monsters, and Malibu Horror Story.
Her HGTV reality series Selling Sunset aired in March 2019 and Heather told the outlet: “[The show] is supposed to be about women’s empowerment.”
She added that her role on Selling Sunset makes a statement and shows “you can be a pretty woman and still be successful and not just arm candy for a man.”
When did Heather Rae El Moussa and Tarek El Moussa get married?
Heather met Tarek El Moussa on his boat on the Fourth of July in 2019, and only four days after they decided to start dating, they moved in together.
Tarek had been married once before to Christina Anstead and hadn’t anticipated getting remarried.
But in July 2020, he got down on one knee in a romantic beachside proposal.
“If you had asked me four years ago, I would’ve told you I was never getting married again, and honestly, I didn’t even think I would find love,” he posted on Instagram ahead of their nuptials.
“Then one day Heather jumped onto my boat, looked at me, smiled, and the rest is history.”
They got married on October 23, 2021, and during the ceremony, they spoke to Tarek’s children, Taylor, 11, and Brayden, 6.
“These kids are truly our everything, so we decided to say our vows first to the kids and second to each other,” Heather wrote on Instagram.
“This is just a tiny portion of what I said to the kids but I truly meant every word.”
In her vows, she said, “When your daddy and I decided to be fully committed, I was 100% committing myself to you, too. I am beyond honored to be your *bonus* mommy.
“Thank you for allowing me to love your daddy with all my heart. I love you both more than you will ever know.”
Does Heather El Moussa have children?
Heather and Tarek announced they are having a baby on July 12, something they both said was unexpected.
“It was a huge shock,” Heather told People Magazine. “We just weren’t expecting this. We had just gone through IVF. We had embryos on ice. We had a plan.”
She added: “I think when you least expect it and there’s no stress in your life, the world just brought us what was meant to be. I’m so excited that it happened like this.”
Tarek said although he hadn’t planned on having another child, he was thrilled when Heather told him she was pregnant.
