Fans tuning into the latest season of Selling Sunset<\/em> on Netflix might have noticed a major change: Heather Rae El Moussa is no longer part of the show.<\/p>\n

Selling Sunset<\/em> offers a glamorous peek into the fast-paced and competitive world of Los Angeles real estate.

Heather Rae El Moussa, a key figure on Selling Sunset<\/em> since its debut in 2019, is noticeably absent from the show\u2019s latest season, Season 8, which premiered on September 6.<\/p>\n

During an appearance on The Skinny Confidential<\/em> podcast, Heather explained her departure, revealing that the demands of Selling Sunset<\/em> were overwhelming her. She described how the show\u2019s unpredictable filming schedule was impacting her primary career as a real estate agent, saying it \u201ctook over\u201d her life and made it challenging to balance her professional responsibilities:<\/p>\n

\u201cWith \u2018Selling Sunset\u2019, I never knew when I was going to be filming. It was last minute, it took over my life, it was hard to do my real job \u2014 real estate. It was hard to do anything else.\u201d<\/p>\n

Heather also disclosed that she wasn\u2019t invited back for Season 8 and that the stress of juggling the show and her career had often left her in tears. She had a more limited presence in Season 7, appearing sporadically while on maternity leave.<\/p>\n

Heather\u2019s current focus is on her new HGTV series, The Flipping El Moussas<\/em>, which she co-produces with her husband, Tarek El Moussa. This show shifts the spotlight to home renovation and flipping, contrasting with the high-stakes real estate drama of Selling Sunset<\/em>. Heather mentioned that working on her own show has been \u201cso much happier\u201d for her, thanks to the flexibility in scheduling and her involvement in production decisions:<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a blessing that I wasn\u2019t asked to come back because I\u2019m so much happier filming my show with Tarek. We\u2019re co-producers on our show so we pick the hours.\u201d<\/p>\n

With their young son, Tristan, born in early 2022, Heather and Tarek are finding that their new show offers a more manageable work-life balance, allowing them to better meet their parenting responsibilities.<\/p>\n

Selling Sunset<\/em> remains available for streaming on Netflix, while The Flipping El Moussas<\/em> was renewed for a second season in 2023, though it has not yet aired.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
