'I Wish I Was Kidding': Heather Rae El Moussa Avoids Telling Husband Tarek About Car Dent in Funny Video

Heather Rae El Moussa has news that husband Tarek El Moussa may not want to hear.

In an Instagram video shared May 5, the Selling Sunset alum, 36, seemingly revealed that she recently experienced a fender bender, which resulted in a dent that husband Tarek, 42, is not yet aware of.

Over a clip of her grabbing her purse and running out of the house as the cameraman — meant to be Tarek — chases after her, Heather wrote, “When my husband asks how the car got a dent.”

“Gtg babe can’t talk rn,” she wrote in the caption, adding, “I wish I was kidding.”

And while Tarek has not yet publicly reacted to the video — or dent — Heather received lots of comments of support from people who have been in her shoes.

One user wrote, “‘Earthquake’ is my answer everytime!” 

"My husband was soooo mad at me when I dented the car,” another commented. “I was like love you byeee.”

Heather’s relatable video comes after a message directed not at her husband, but at the couple’s online critics.

Also included in the video are screenshots of some particularly hateful comments she’s received. “Funny how pathetic she sounds,” reads one message, while others call her “trashy” and “so phony."

In the caption, she elaborated on her message, writing, “Unbothered 💁🏼‍♀️.”

“Social media can be a double-edged sword; while it offers connectivity and community, it also presents a platform for comparison and negativity,” she continued. “However, your perspective and how you engage with it is so important."

"I hope you guys don’t have to deal with this, but if you have I’m sending you all the love," she added.

During an exclusive interview with PEOPLE in November 2023, the HGTV star gave more insight into her “unbothered” life since leaving Selling Sunset and focusing more on The Flipping El Moussas, her show with Tarek.

"I love being able to prioritize my family and my happiness and step away from some of the drama that Selling Sunset brought into my life," she told PEOPLE at the time.

"But I can just film with my husband now, drama-free," she continued. "I mean, the drama's in the houses, it's not with the people. And that is so incredible that I don't have to worry about fighting with a girl if I go to work."
