Heather Rae El Moussa claps back at critics accusing her of favoring son Tristan over stepkids

Heather Rae El Moussa is ready for the sun to set on this drama.

The Selling Sunset star recently spoke out about the mommy shaming she's received since welcoming her son Tristan, 4 months, with husband Tarek El Moussa. This includes commenters on social media suggesting that she favors the newborn over stepkids Taylor, 12, and Brayden, 7, who Tarek shares with his ex-wife Christina Hall.

However, Heather has a simple explanation as to why her followers may be seeing more of Tristan than Taylor and Brayden on her social media.

"Taylor and Brayden are in school all day, and I'm home with Tristan," she told Today.com in an interview published June 5. "I can capture moments with Tristan easily."

The real estate agent also noted to the outlet that Tarek and Christina have 50/50 custody of Taylor and Brayden. So, sometimes the kids are with the Christina on the Coast star when Heather takes a picture of Tristan.

"They're also busy with sports and tutoring—they always have something going on," she continued. "I blink and it's 8 o'clock at night. So when we're all together, the last thing I'm doing is standing around taking photos with all three kids."
