Heather Dubrow has zero qualms about being used as inspiration for Leslie Bibb‘s White Lotus character.
“I loved it! I reposted it!” the Real Housewives of Orange County star, 56, exclusively told Parade at the 36th annual GLAAD Media Awards at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills on Thursday, March 27, adding, “I was so excited.”

Though the Bravo star, who attended Thursday night’s event with husband Terry Dubrow, went on to tell Parade that she and Bibb, 50, haven’t talked offline, she knows exactly what she’d say to her if and when she gets the chance.
“I would say, ‘Thanks for the heads up and if you need a friend on the show next season, I’m your girl,'” she revealed.
During a March appearance on SiriusXM’s Radio Andy with Bravo patriarch Andy Cohen, Bibb — a Housewives fan herself — admitted that she took inspiration from some of the cast across multiple franchises for her character.
“I know I was watching a lot of [Real Housewives of] Beverly Hills,” she told Cohen, 56. “That felt in the right world. Maybe a little OC, maybe there’s a little Heather Dubrow in her, maybe.”
As for what fans can expect from RHOC‘s forthcoming Season 19, Heather admitted she can’t say much, other than “it’s a really good season.”
She added: “You’re really going to like it. Fans of the show are going to be super, super happy.”
